			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="tweetmeme_button" style="float: right; margin-left: 10px;"><a href="http://api.tweetmeme.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.leftfair.com%2Ffeminism%2Fsisterhoodflippants%2F"><img src="http://api.tweetmeme.com/imagebutton.gif?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.leftfair.com%2Ffeminism%2Fsisterhoodflippants%2F" height="61" width="51" /></a></div><p>According to <strong><a href="http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/10/14/clinton-supporters-aid-palin/">The New York Times</a></strong>, a recent Republican fund raising reception managed to suck <strong>more than a million dollars</strong> out of the hands of <strong>hundreds of</strong> <strong>Hillary Clinton&#8217;s fair-weather supporters, </strong>some of whom traitorously contributed more than <strong>twenty five thousand dollars</strong> of their blood money to John McCain.</p>
<p>This disgusting display of misplaced activism is evident that there continues to be a serious problem with <strong>self-professed Hillary Clinton &#8220;supporters&#8221;</strong> naively <strong>backstabbing her and her feminist values</strong> in order to support Sarah Palin.</p>
<p>In flocking to Sarah Palin, they seem unable to imagine what rights women would have achieved had the womens&#8217; suffrage movement had been led by a <strong>beauty pageant contestant instead of Susan B. Anthony. </strong></p>
<p>They also seem unable to see see how this same standard applies to modern feminism. They are convinced that a woman whom John McCain chose as his running mate <strong>solely for her beauty</strong> is more qualified to carry the Feminist Torch than <strong>women who have dedicated their entire live</strong>s to advancing women&#8217;s rights.</p>
<p>Many of these women chose to betray Hillary Clinton because Barack Obama, the candidate <strong>she has endorsed and who most closely supports her legacy</strong>, defeated her in the Democratic Primary race.</p>
<p>In a <strong>spiteful and naive </strong>attempt to hurt Barack Obama, these women are putting their energy and resources behind a candidate with a <strong>legacy of regressing, not advancing, womens&#8217; rights. </strong></p>
<p><strong></strong> If women take offense to their gender being the butt of jokes, then I am saddened that the profound irony of their stupidity is lost on these women.</p>

<p>In introducing Sarah Palin, Mandelll, a theoretical lifelong Democrat, suggested that Sarah Palin is &#8220;what a feminist looks like&#8221;.</p>
<p>If I were asked what a Feminist looks like, I would think of women like Harriet Tubman, Hillary Clinton, and Joan of Arc; women who struggled to <em><strong>advance</strong> </em>the liberty and dignity of women.<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Sarah Palin&#8217;s irresponsible motherhood, marital infidelity, and opposition to birth control, sex education, and a woman&#8217;s right to choose<strong> <em>sabotage</em></strong> the liberty and dignity of women.</p>
<p>As the one-term governor of America&#8217;s least populous state, Sarah Palin is unprepared to run the country. Yet, she <strong><em>is</em></strong> a former Miss Alaska Beauty Pageant finalist who was chosen over a surplus of experienced, qualified men.</p>
<p>Maybe having a legacy reminiscent of so many Fairy Tale Princesses and Corporate Sexual Harassment Plaintiffs <strong><em>IS</em> </strong>enough to make Sarah Palin a Feminist.</p>
<p>If a high-ranking NOW official says that Sarah Palin is a feminist, it must be true. After all, I&#8217;m just a man, and what do men know about Feminism?</p>
