The Hypocrisy of Liberalism, again!
There are very few examples in American history where the hypocrisy of liberalism has been more clearly exposed than with the introduction of Alaska’s Governor Sarah Palin as John McCain’s Vice-Presidential running mate. Common Sense Politics knows of a few others and will comment on them below but we want to focus on the actions by these people during the past four weeks. From the moment John McCain introduced her on Friday, August 29 in Dayton, Ohio, the shameful criticism of Sarah Palin has been non-stop. The liberals in the media and elsewhere threw all rational thoughts out the window and the attacks were relentless and not only tasteless but in fact furious and vicious.
Now then, let us look at what her introduction on the national scene has got them, the liberals and their fanatical friends, so upset by this woman: Let’s begin with some facts; Sarah Palin at age 44 is a self-made woman who gave birth to five children ranging in age from 19-year old son Track who is currently serving in the U.S. Army in Iraq to a five-months old boy Trig who has Downs Syndrome. She joined the PTA in her home town Wassilla in Alaska, she was elected to the City Council and also the Mayor of this small town, later on served as Chairman of Alaska’s Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and in 2006 was elected Governor of that State. She is Conservative, Pro-Life (Anti Abortion), a member of the NRA (National Rifle Association) and has brought significant change to Alaska’s politics as usual in that she has signed strong ethics reform, lowered taxes for individuals and small businesses, raised taxes on the Oil Companies there and sent refund checks to all Alaska residents from that money. She also has negotiated the construction of a nearly 40 billion-dollar gas pipeline project.
At first glance, she is a woman who has achieved success in politics, local and State government and one would assume that the liberal feminism movement in America would idolize her and hold her in high esteem. But that is not the case! She is being attacked and demonized by the very group that has been preaching that women are equal to men and have long been waiting for the day when a women would finally ascend to the highest offices in the land: The Presidency and the Vice-Presidency.
So what then is their problem with her, we might ask? Why are they so fiercely aligned against her and have so far and will continue to attack, smear and malign her in this hateful and unjust fashion? There is only one reason for that: Sarah Palin is a Pro-Life Conservative! She therefore does not fit their ideals of liberalism and feminism; it is as simple as that! We here at this site look at this in sheer wonderment. Do the liberals and feminists truly believe that a woman who has demonstrated her abilities in effective management and attained executive experience yet opposes abortion is not qualified for higher office? Are they really this narrow minded or is it fanaticism at its worst? It lacks total credulity and common sense, yet how else can one explain their attacks on Sarah Palin? It is the highest form of hypocrisy when achievement by an individual is only measured through the spectrum of abortion as it relates to this kind of baby killing. They think of it as being “Pro-Choice” and call it ‘a woman’s right to choose’. Sarah Palin had a choice when she was told that her youngest son was diagnosed as being afflicted with Downs Syndrome, yet she decided to be against abortion and gave birth to this baby. Was it not her right to choose life over death (of the baby)? It is sheer hypocrisy on the part of Liberals and Feminists to say otherwise and exposes them for what they are, fanatics
Maybe these terms, Pro-Life and Pro-Choice should be eliminated and replaced by Pro- and Anti-Abortion, because that is what it is, pure and simple! Liberals and Feminists also think that maintaining the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe versus Wade, a Federal mandate for abortion rights is of the greatest importance for America, even more important as National Security or anything else. They will accuse any person with Pro-Life opinions as forcing women to have ‘back alley abortions’ in the future if Roe vs. Wade should be overturned by the Supreme Court at any time. This is of course sheer nonsense in that such overturning of existing law would simply result in individual States having the right to allow such procedures under State Law. But we will never hear Liberals and Feminists talk in those terms and recognize these truths, they rather lie about it and become vicious in their fight to preserve this Supreme Court ruling in 1973.
It is for us here totally unacceptable and we cannot therefore have any respect for liberals and feminists, this has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence (as sometimes expressed in I.Q.’s) or slanted viewpoints, this is hate-filled narrow-mindedness and should be rejected for that alone by all who consider themselves objective and rational. We think that this is a great time to put the focus on these people and expose them for who they are. Common sense thinkers should speak up the next time individuals get viciously attacked when they do not share the belief system of Liberals and Feminists. We should all understand what Supreme Court Justice nominations in Congress are all about, in one simple word: Abortion! If a nominee is supporting Roe v. Wade, he or she will get approved with great fanfare. But when someone is Conservative, even without expressing an opinion on abortion rights as was the case for recent appointees to the Supreme Court, Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito, the fight is on with all weapons and means possible, the dirt digging is reprehensible and should be called that.
Does anybody remember the Supreme Court nomination of Clarence Thomas in 1991? While Liberals have always publicly declared that they are friends of all minorities in this country, they will fight anybody who does not fit their mindset and ideology and then it does not matter if the person is white, black, Hispanic or anything else for that matter. Smearing and viciously maligning of Conservatives is their number One purpose in life it seems and rationale, courtesy and tolerance is thrown away when it comes to that. Sarah Palin is simply the most recent example on the national stage to receive this ugly treatment from Liberals and their ideological friends. Since the vast majority of the media is admittedly liberal, it should not surprise anybody why so much vicious nonsense and negative scrutiny is said and written about Sarah Palin. Has anybody wondered why Barack Obama did not receive this close scrutiny when he came onto the national scene? Did the media travel en mass to Chicago and look into his background and years of being a community organizer? We know they did not! And we believe to know the reason: He shared their ideological mindset, clear evidence of their hypocrisy!
