Did we go back to 1954?

I remember watching Joe Biden’s son in the Democratic convention. He told the story how of his father had just lost his wife and baby daughter in a auto accident in 1972, not a single colleague, friend or competitor advised him to quit his newly won Senate seat to raise his two little surviving sons.

Instead his son told the story of how he juggled his political life with his personal life. He was sworn into office from the hospital where his injured boys were healing. He took to commuting an hour and a half each way from Delaware to Washington. When Biden’s second wife gave birth to a daughter, no one thought to ask him to step aside and stay home.

So why does the Main Stream Media and the Democrats think that its impossible for Sara Palin to raise a child with Downs Syndrome? The New York Times printed a front page article noting that some unnamed women argue over “whether there are enough hours in the day for her to take on the vice presidency, and whether she is right to try” Barrack Obama has two small children, why doesn’t the same criteria apply to him? Where are the people of NOW? Where are the feminists that would staunchly defend her if she agreed with their policies?

  1. I think this will all backfire on the democrats and the media. They have been vicious. They have managed to do what John McCain has been trying to do for months. Unite the party! I was lukewarm on McCain for a long time. He gets my vote and as many people as I can convince.

  2. I read that article - it appears that the Staunch Feminists were the ones making the comments -

    btw- Sarah Palin used to be a member of Feminists for Life.

  3. Don’t fret Loretta,

    The Democrats and their accomplices in the media would have done this no matter who was McCains pick. They had an attack portfolio all ready whether it was Romney, Liberman, Guiliani or whoever.

    The fact that it is so intense tells me they are afraid of Palin and need to chop her down fast before America falls in love with her. Tonight she goes unfiltered, lets see what she has to say.

  4. NOW and other feminist organizations like them only support liberal/democrat women. When it comes to republican women, NOW will agree with the Obama/Biden supporters and the media that supports the notion that she should remain home - barefoot and pregnant.

  5. Hillary didn’t get the nomination.

    The liberal left has declared that it’s ok to demean women now.

    Republican women… let’s be perfectly clear here.
