Re: The Best Man Turned Out To Be A Woman, by Ann Coulter

Aside from her polarizing politics, there is nothing particularly "wrong" with Gov. Palin. However, there is nothing particularly right about her, either. A conservative [pun intended] estimate of the number of conservative women with as much administrative and leadership experience as her would easily be in the thousands. I personally know dozens who are at least as qualified, and so do you.

Oh, and by the way. If you're going to compare "experience" in any kind of legitimate way instead of simple-minded rhetoric, simply managing his massive grassroots campaign organization has given Obama just as much executive experience as Gov. Palin has, if not more.

Here's the surprise (for me): this bleeding heart liberal agrees completely that Gov. Palin's daughter should be left alone. What isn't surprising to me is that Barack Obama emphatically made exactly that point to the press when they asked him about her. That is precisely the response one would expect from a man of principles.

Here's another surprise: I agree that it is sexist to consider Gov. Palin's parenting responsibilities to her detriment. If a child can be raised by only one parent while the other is serving in elected office, then it shouldn't matter whether the parent doing the raising is the mother or the father. I'm not sure that's what I call "family values," but at least it's a consistent ethic.

BTW, Republicans don't have hair plugs? People should vote for McCain because Sarah Palin once wanted to work for ESPN? Come on, Ann. Keep your "colorful" writing, but please stop insulting people's intelligence.
