Rainier Re Obama, Palin and their respective qualities
And your previous post: “white lower class british trash pretending to be something he is not. how sad and pathetic. Posted by Rainier, Thursday, 11 September 2008 10:19:42 AM” Please advise us all, from your position of self appointed ethnic eletist and snob, which class each is keith “And apparently appeals more to the average Joe and Josephine Blow.” Ah but, Keith, you shouild realise, in rainiers eyes they are only some of the “lower class trash” and thus, their “poor white” votes are "pretend” and don’t count, on balance to his exulted position and authority, as an observer.

Drat - I thought you were going to the post office. I say Col Rouge - Master of English, Economics Laureate and all that stuff. What is an "eletist?" And have I been remiss in my spelling of "ad hominines?" Oh I see now. You turned off your spell check. Sorry about that! Naughty Dickie! Posted by dickie, Saturday, 13 September 2008 4:34:30 PM

Have you ever been in SoHo?
The ironical part about it, the more abuse aware and loving feminists have laid on Sarah Palin, the more free publicity it has given Sarah Palin. Feminists have put Sarah Palin on the map, and the republicans are now Palin and McCain.
Few people have heard of Joe Biden, and Barak Obama has become a one man show. He has very little chance of becoming the next US President.
My daughter had experience with feminism 101. She is now one more female who will not call herself a feminist.
What happened, her sexist feminist teacher was continuously making sexist comments about males during the class. One day the daughter questioned the sexist feminist teacher about one of those comments, and shortly after that, the sexist feminist teacher told the daughter to rewrite her latest assignment.
The assignment had taken the daughter a week to write, and she was told to rewrite it for no good reason. The daughter was being punished for asking the sexist feminist teacher a question.
Being daddy’s little angel, the daughter basically does whatever she wants, but she has never called herself a feminist. After her experience with the sexist feminist teacher and feminism 101, I don’t think she ever will call herself a feminist in the future, or any other type of “ist”.
This means that the daughter has a brain of her own.
That makes Daddy very proud.
