John McCain as he introduces Palin:
"The person I'm about to introduce to you ... And, I am especially proud to say in the week we celebrate the anniversary of women's suffrage, a devoted wife and a mother of five..." via
John, you ignorant doofus. Women's suffrage and devoted wife and mother certainly aren't synonymous with one another. On that long road to suffrage, many good women marched and suffered in jail to get the right to vote, not for the right to lift someone else up. Women's Suffrage was about the Women's Right to Vote, damnit.
And on that long road, when one of the leaders, Alice Paul, embarked on a hunger strike, they tied her to a chair, forced a tube down her throat and poured liquid into her until she vomited. She was tortured like this for weeks until word was smuggled out to the press.
She wasn't enduring this in hopes of becoming a devoted wife and mother. McCain was off on this and he's off on thinking he'll garner the women's vote simply because he chose a woman to run with him. Woman all over should be insulted. link
