    Yeah I never heard cries of sexism or outrage over the media's treatment of Palin during the campaign. Wait....reverse that.

    I honestly never heard sexism charges about Palin, did hear them from Hilary.

    Do you think there was sexism against Palin

    lipstick pig comment? I think I summed up my opinion with my response to FB. It is way to subjective and all based on feelings.

    This is the second time you have asked this and I answered it already. It is a dumb question and repeating it makes you look dumb.

    I don't get your point, do you think that was sexism? again, i wouldn't agree that calling palin a pig is sexism, but that's another topic.

    You asked why you did not hear charges of sexism, I reminded you of the pig comment. If you google you can find charges of sexism.

    do you think it was sexist even if we agree that he called her a pig, which we all know he didn't.

    palin at the convention said the only difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull is lipstick

    obama at a campaign stop said the mccain/palin camp were just dressing up bush's old policy's, that's like putting lipstick on a pig or something of that nature.

    and then ensued hilarity

    This is a ridiculous issue.

    I thought Letterman's joke was in very poor taste but Sarah Palin's response has been overblown and to me reeks of desperation to remain in the national spotlight.
