The thing is, there are people out there, that simply disagree with you. They see some of these women as role models. You may not see Palin as a role model, but there are plenty to who. Are they wrong? to you they are, to them you are wrong. My main reason for not voting for McCain WAS Palin, do I think that those who agree with her platform are wrong? yeah in many ways I do believe they are wrong, and they would probably think the same of me.
Some see Clinton as a role model, some see her as an agressive *****, yet if a man were doing the same thing....they wouldn't see him as an agressive bastard, just aggressive. I'll simply go back to my example as far as her dishonesty.
Some think very highly of the Kennedy family, some don't.....just a difference of opinion.
As far as Michelle Obama, as far as I'm concerned, she has started off very well. As far as being a role model for young black women? Sure she is, education, family, public service are all very important to her......those are all very positive things, lacking in alot of our young people today.
I give very little of my thinking time to Paris Hilton....
I work with many of the charities that Cindy McCain works with, not only does she give her money and name to these charities, she gives her time. That is important to me....
Yes some people think hitler's awesome as well, I call these people idiots. It's not simply a matter of personal opinion, that I agree is different from person to person, it's the matter of accomplishments and what they're actually done that I have issue with.
Palin's at least done somethings of note, and by herself. So I'll give her some props there. She's probably the best of this group so far (and isn't that sad?)
People can see hillary however they want. I just remember what she's done, which is to go back on almost every single word that's come out of her mouth. I remember her repeatedly lying then covering on those lies dispite people having taped the event and presenting it to her. That's not gutsy or *****y that's just some person feeling so invincible she feels she can change her own personal history when it suits her and just yell down the "truth". She's ****ing clown shoes, and really she's probably never been anything else.
I've just got problems with a family that has cheated it's way into politics, caused the vietnam war, escalated the cold war to the most dangerous point of armageddon in world history, allowed US trained soldiers to be massacred because of last minute doubts, put saddam in power (oh, wait that's just the one member of the family- we've also got fun drug charges, DUI's, DWI's, rape, more election rigging, mob connections, etc) and actually get's to be kindly thought of. Truth is Caroline Kennedy just hasn't done enough to be even spoken about for any reason. She's a name signer, and it's her father's name that she uses to giver herself relevance.
Michele, I've said just hasn't done enough one way or the other to be considered.
Oh, I don't think Cindy's bad, just not deserving either. I know plenty of better contributors that give more of their time, energies and a far greater percentage of their money to worthwhile causes. I mean rich people get into charaties as hobbies most of the time, it's a social way to have parties and seem "good". I'm not saying all do this but for most it's a big part of why they're involved.
I guess what peeves me isn't so much that these women are evil necessarily (a few seem kinda evil though) it's just that there are so many better people with better stories out there if you want to focus on women's issues have mother theresa dealing with the systematic rape of women in africa where no one cares. That's a bit better than what any of these women could have in a comic. Maybe I just like good stories?
