Here is an article meant to educate women about the policies of Sarah Palin. While I understand that Sarah Palin will not have much of a say as VP, it concerns me that the level of attention and compassion she receives from women is so supportive, when Palin's policies strip women of all their rights. After this election, who is to stop her from running for President. Will the American public still be apathetic towards their own rights and issues? What impact will Palin have on McCain, in his choices for supreme court justice? Overall, I think the acclaim Palin recieves is not totally undeserved, but frequently unwarrented.

Palin would be stripping women of their rights. You can't deny a pro-lifer of the chance to have an abortion because they would not be having one. I have no problem with pro-lifers as long as they can acknowledge that being pro-life is personal, just as being pro-choice is. Palin is against sex-ed, birth control, and abortion. If she had her way, her rights would still be in tact since she doesn't use those things in the ways that I do/would/could. Women need access to these things, whether they choose to use them or not is different.
Do you ever even consider that Obama attracts media attention because it's deserved? Or because he is willing to go against certain things that conservative America stands for?
I wouldn't say I'm jealous of Palin "stealing" the Obama spotlight, I'm rather annoyed that she is being looked upon as if she is an incredible human being, which she is not.
I get angry because I feel like you stand on this pedestal of being "All knowing, all right Republican." You're very pushy with your views on people who do not know their beliefs, and I don't think that's right. I find it very obnoxious.
My blog features my opinion, too. I'm sorry I am not drole enough to state it in my title. Also most of your blogs are self-proclaimed HL Opinion facts. I don't even know what that means.
(Also I still enjoy your blog no matter what)
I think you made an excellent point about Sarah Palin and how she isn't helping out women and families with her policies. Its surprising to me that while being a woman, she still wants women to carry babies which were conceived from rape. I think that is just WRONG. I would think that she would understand the stresses of having a baby and would feel some kind of pity on those women who have been raped and are now carrying a baby against their will. Its upsetting to me that she want to only teach abstinence and restricts some information from being released in libraries. It's almost as if she is hiding the truth from people and living in some sort of fantasy world in which bad things don't happen. If Palin stops letting this information from reaching people, they would be living in ignorance and wouldn't be aware of the truth in order to prevent all these bad things from happening.
I agree to some extent, but I mean, she can't have that much of an impact on McCain, on account of he knows she doesn't know half as much as him about politics. And yes, she does get some compassion for being a woman, but it;s just because everyone is looking for change.
I understand the numerous times you have told me that Palin's status will not change the stance on abortion. Nonetheless, it is a careful road to tread because as more and more officials who support these plans come into office, the more and more likely it is for a demand for the decision to be overturned. Things can happen, even several years later, and I don't want my children or women several years down the line to have to deal with the scrutiny given when they make their personal decision to have an abortion (or take birth control, even).
I will admit fault in posting a link that admits that Palin tried to ban books. While I have heard that she merely asked about banning books/taking an interest in it, I am aware that she did not actually ban any books.
