Well, it would appear that my place in Hell is already reserved....
We already knew that, according to Sarah Palin, I'm going to hell.
To be honest, that's no news flash.
But apparently she's getting specific.
Isn't it amazing how the only time a Republican will acknowledge that a Democrat is correct is when they think a Democrat is agreeing with them?
But for someone who complains continually (even here) that she is being "filtered" by the media, it would appear that Sarah has no small talent for filtering herself.
Either that or her already questionable reading skills should be questioned again, even when it comes to reading her $5 Starbuck's cup--because that is not what Madeleine Albright actually said.
What she said was, "There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." And that one word changes the whole meaning of that sentence....
And that's exactly what the Starbuck's cup does say:
This would, indeed, assign any woman to hell should she find it prudent to actually charge women for their own rape kits. Or force them to carry a pregnancy that would do her harm. Or block access to birth control for a woman who needs it. Or allow women to earn unequal pay for work performed at the same level and with the same competence as a man.
So it would appear that I will march through the gates of hell and take my assigned place, with the other women who couldn't stomach her hateful, snarky, repulsive cattiness, and who saw a finer feminist in the face of Barack Obama than the one that hides behind her designer specs and her tattooed-on lipliner.
And you know what?
I'll be proud to do it--and I have to say that I'd be happy to sit in the spot next to Madeleine Albright.
But please--don't sit me next to Sarah, because that special place is going to be so much hotter...
