I don't believe this, I just don't believe it!

I just read this on msnbc.com

Quote from McCain about Palin:

"She is a direct counterpoint to the liberal feminist agenda for America," he said."

So, what...he's saying being feminist is a BAD thing? He wants to FIGHT it? And Sara Palin is...what, his secret weapon to fight the evil feminists who think women are equal to men?

I had no respect for Palin before, but when her running mate says things like this I think woman-kind needs to revoke her membership if she doesn't tell him.....things I can't type in this blog!!

If he thinks women belong back in the kitchen, why is he so ready to elevate one to the Vice Presidency? Does he want her to give American women makeup tips????

If you want to read it, here is the whole article, quote is at the bottom.

I don't understand how women can view feminism as a bad thing.

Foofoo, feminists aren't out to tell other women how to live, we're fighting for womens rights not to be exploited. I love men too, I just don't want to be ruled by them.

1. the doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men.

We all know that's what she is. I just never expected either of them to say it out loud.
