My favorite post from quarter three is my post entitled "Gross

I think that this post did a successful job of combining succinct descriptions of unknown terms with links to more elaborate descriptions. I also think that I did a good job of mixing my own theories with those of the hosts of "Stuff You Should Know."

America's Next Top Republican Woman

Doesn't this just sum up most of my problems with conservative America.  I have NEVER seen a similar photo comparing the physical attributes of democrat and republican men.  This makes me really angry.

Assumably, this photo came out before the Palin dynasty, as she isn't on it.  That makes this picture all the more ironic.  First, you spend years complaining that Hilary Clinton doesn't cry, and putting out trash like this that is somehow meant to claim that republicans are better because they only hire bimbos, then you claim that Palin has been subject to a ridiculous amount of sexism.

Anyone who has ever watched Fox News will understand what I am saying.  Not only are all the women ridiculously beautiful, but they are also given the most ridiculous fluff stories.  Gretchen Carlson (a former pageant girl) always gets stories about hair care while her co-hosts get real stories.

I understand the reason that republicans do this; if you need to get some women to prove that you aren't sexist, why not get some arm candy?

  1. I agree with your blog post, these women are put into the positions that they are by Republicans solely based on their looks, such as Sarah Palin. They then use the fact that these women are not very intelligent to say that Democrats are sexist because these women often have no idea what they are talking about, when as you said they are given a "real" news story. The Republicans are using these women as tools to gain the support of other women as they did with Sarah Palin in order to try and get the Hilary Clinton voters. Good Post
