Violence Against Female Candidates Encouraged

The very popular theme of depicting female politicians in a violent (and sexist) way continues: here is the latest one of Gov. Sarah Palin.

It is okay because she is a woman.
Violence against women is tolerated, even encouraged by the media.
Democrats have been very encouraging this year, too.
They loved Hillary tied to a railroad track and Hillary’s face all black and blue.
Palin hanging from a tree is just so cool!
Now she gets to have a stake in her heart.

In this historic election many barriers were broken.

The one with the most impact, the one most stunning, is that Democrats dropped their pretense of supporting women. I have yet to hear ONE elected Democrat official or Democratic Party leader or the Democratic candidate (now-president-elect) speak out against the volume of violent images and treatment of Senator Hillary Clinton or Governor Sarah Palin in this election.

It will be a long time before I can forgive.
I will never forget, though.

They did not stand up for Hillary or Sarah.
I know they would never stand up for me.

No real feminist could have voted Democrat this year.
Faux feminists, Yes.
Real feminists. No. Way.
