I mean, seriously. I just don't get her logic, or lack there of, at all.<br /><br />For starters, she goes on and on about everything Gross "attacked" regarding Palin. I read the entire story. Although it did not show her in a positive light, I did not see any blatant, underhanded "attacks". It seems Gross observed and interviewed, and reported the information he collected. And it's not really that I care if Loudon thinks Gross "attacked" Palin. But Loudon's response is to actually say some pretty nasty things about Gross. More do as I say and not as I do tactics from the STL Tea Party.<br /><br />Next, wtf is this "Since the first time the Governor saw my son Samuel (who also has Down syndrome), she bolts across the room to greet him every time she sees him. She nuzzles him like a mother who loves children with Down syndrome does." supposed to mean? A mother who loves children with Down Syndrome? What the...<br /><br />And again: "but Piper, in particular, cannot seem to get enough of him. She literally plays with him (Gross does say she played with “the children” in his story) from the moment she sees him, until the moment she is pressed to let go of him. It is so sweet, and it speaks to the parenting in her life. She has obviously been taught a real, tangible love for “special children” by her parents, and it shines when she lights up at the sight of a baby with Down syndrome."<br /><br />" Sarah pulled me aside to ask me how blessed I felt to be the mother of someone chosen and special, like Samuel." What? "and we talked about the gentle touch of a child with Down syndrome that feels almost like the wing of an angel."<br /><br />"Here is petty, but further evidence of Mr. Gross’ slander. Sarah is a size 4. She is tiny. So when you try to hit the woman in the place that would really hurt, and accuse her of spending $3,000 of campaign money on her underwear, namely Spanx girdles, it tells your readers so much about you. Oprah doesn’t spend that on her Spanx, and if she did, you wouldn’t write about it, because she is a liberal. That’s the poorly veiled truth about you, Mr. Gross, you are jealous of Sarah (it glares through your non-story) and you hate her because she stands for good, conservative values. And she has great shoes!" Seriously? This woman has a doctorate? Even if you are a size 4, if you've had children, especially numerous children, and haven't had a tummy tuck, you probably need a girdle.<br /><br />I love how everyone likes to ignore facts. Sarah Palin is not smart. She is only successful for the same reasons Dana Loesch is successful - they pray on the fears of those even stupider than they are. Neither are well educated. Neither represent "normal middle class", even though the like to think so. And both think their "religion" gives them some moral high ground to look down upon others from.<br /><br />Palin, Loudon, and Loesch all need to just fuck off. Seriously.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
