What i pointed out was all that Palin and Bachmann have to offer, which is the very same 3 qualities that drive the left wing batshit. I never said i thought either one would be a good president, and i have already said i think they are both idiots, I merely pointed the three qualities that drive the left crazy, in no specific order.( good looking, woman, republican.)
I think it's great when you can answer you own question in the very same post. The hallmark of self-sufficiency.
You overlooked the key quality: bat shit crazy. (I believe your word of choice in an earlier post was "idiot.") It's a stand-alone quality, so you can safely disregard the three you mentioned in the above quoted post.
So because i pointed out the fact that i dont think either of them is smart, it somehow matches the relentless personal attacks the two of them have taken from the left wing media? Why dont you tell me where all you righteous advocates of equality seem to disappear to whenever it is someone on the right wing who is being attacked?
They're both banking on the people supporting them on women's rights grounds. Last election the first black man became president. This election they hope to be the first woman president. Meh.. we need better female candidates.

"In her tea party-fueled quest to cut government spending and social programs, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has unveiled a plan to cut $400 billion in federal spending that includes freezing the Veterans Affairs Departmentâs health care spending and cuts veteransâ disability benefits. The Air Force Times reports her plan would slice $4.5 billion from the VA, including reducing 150,000 veteransâ disability compensation and the amount they receive in Social Security Disability Income. A host of veterans groups slammed Bachmannâs plan: âVeterans of Foreign War national commander Richard L. Eubank said, âThe only discussion the VFW wants is to tell the congresswoman that her plan is totally out of step with Americaâs commitment to our veterans.â âNo way, no how, will we let this proposal get any traction in Congress,â said Eubank. âThere are certain things you do not do when our nation is at war, and at the top of that list is not caring for our wounded and disabled servicemen and women when they return home,â he said. âI want her to look those disabled veterans in the eye and tell them their service and sacrifice is too expensive for the nation to bear.â âThe National Veterans Foundationâs Rich Rudnick told ThinkProgress that Bachmannâs plan is âterribly misguided,â saying, âveterans benefits are minimal to begin withâ and that Bachmannâs scheme would be a âreal step backwards.â âCutting back on the VA right now would be showing contempt for American servicemembersâ sacrifices,â Rudnick said in a phone interview this afternoon. âDisabled American Veterans Washington Headquarters Executive Director David Gorman said Bachmannâs plan is âuch an ill-advised proposal [it] is nothing short of heartless.â âIt is unconscionable that while our nation is at war someone would even think of forcing our wounded warriors to sacrifice even more than they already have,â Gorman said. âTheir injuries and disabilities were the result of their service to the nation, and our nation must not shirk its responsibilities toward them. How do you tell a veteran who has lost a limb that he or she has not sacrificed enough? Yet Rep. Bachmann wants to do just that.â âVeterans for Common Sense executive director Paul Sullivan âsaid cutting veteransâ health care spending is an ill-advised move at a time when the number of veterans continues to grow as troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan.â âIt is really astonishing to see this,â he said. âVoteVets.org Chairman Ashwin Madia said, âMichelle Bachmannâs plan would turn veterans away from the care theyâve earned and deserve. Congress voted for two wars that have created many veterans that now need help, and we cannot â and will not â turn our backs to them. Thatâs bad policy that I think even a majority of Republican voters will stand squarely against.â http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/01/28/141412/bachmann-veterans/
Try to stay on point and follow your own breadcrumbs. You asked: And then you said in the same post you thought she was an idiot. Asked and answered. I don't think feminist groups seek to support idiots just because they're female. In the case of Palin, and Bachmann, it's not a Left thing or a Right thing. It's an idiot thing. You called it.
Ahhhhh, i see, well explained..... So the same group of righteous activists who call every single person who denounces Obama a racist, are unwilling to support Palin when the media makes attacks not only her, but her under age daughters, and attacks her relentlessly and calls her a bimbo, and makes repeated insults which target her gender?...... Gotcha..... Tell me why this same media was so adamant about getting Palins Emails, yet they still can not find a single thing about Obamas past. Who is more relevant? Where are the feminist groups on this one? And what do you think the splash back would have been if the right wing media started going after Obamas daughters with the same ferocity? Sharpton would be marching in the street with a mob ready to string up Roger Ailes if Fox ever did that. Thats some moral compass these groups have....Using sexism/racism as a political tool is really genuine. Hell even a far left Liberal like Jon stewart is willing to call this bullshit out.
