Jesus fuck, you morons.

You recognize that a blatantly misogynistic attack on his VP pick is A) totally inappropriate B) playing right into the Republicans' hands and C) totally inappropriate. Right?

Doesn't Erica Barnett still work at the Stranger? What the fuck is wrong with you people?

Exactly the kind of personal attack Obama is not engaging in.

So, it was horrifyingly sexist for some asshole to yell at HRC to iron his shirts.

Yet it's perfectly okay to call McCain's running mate a whore?

Way to be progressive, folks.

There are tons of legitimate political and ideological reasons to object to Palin. Resorting to crude, sexist slurs just looks shitty.

I agree with @1, 2, 3, & 4. You should pull this ASAP. Not funny, misogynistic, distastful, and counter-productive. Get rid of it.

Oh, please. It's satirizing what's a blatantly calculated move on McCain's part. The antiquated misogyny here comes straight from his big mouth.

I like how the big dipper still points to the North Star, which has become the star in the McCain logo... not sure if its intentional, but it's a nice subtle design touch.

@4: This sign refers to the fact that McCain called his wife a "trollop" ... not that The Stranger thinks Palin is a whore.

Save your offense for McCain (at least in this case).

Satirizing McCain? Then do that. But, calling Sarah Palin a whore is nothing more than that: Calling Palin a whore. There's no defending this.

Can't we get to issues? Remember, even to disaffected Hillary supporters...the point is the focus on issues. We can beat McCain/Palin on issues. But, if you take it to this level, you stoop to theirs.

I remain disappointed that this is on SLOG.

Are all of you fucking stupid, humorless twats? For once Kelly O shows a sense of humor that works and you're all having conniptions over it. Get over your PC kneejerk reactions for once in your life and realize this is a jab at McCains own outlook on women.

I saved this for posterity.

"Can't we get to issues?"

The issue here is that McCain's platform is anti-woman as hell, despite his token VP choice, and his infamous gaffe illustrates that nicely.

Posted by Eric Grandy | August 29, 2008 11:23 AM

Fucking Christ people! Do you not get the reference?! McCain called his wife a Trollop (as well as a "cunt") on the record... this merely points out his views towards women and the fact that this is a disingenuous political move.

I personally think McCain/Cunt '08 is catchier, but hey, that might offend some sensitive folks on SLOG.

Posted by Timothy | August 29, 2008 11:34 AM
31

Yes, we all get the reference. But the satire is predicated on the notion that McCain calling his wife a trollop and a cunt makes him a broad-based misogynist, which I don't think most people actually believe. I tend to think calling a woman a trollop and a cunt just means you have old-fashioned ideas about insulting people.

Because there's a difference between what you say to one person during a heated moment and what you believe about an entire group. Calling his wife a whore when he's mad means he has poor judgment. Calling his VP pick a whore on general principle makes you a misogynist.

sorry, i don't buy it. kelly o and eric grandy are not smart enough to make any sort of cognizant political commentary work, and this is no exception. this is rush limbaugh territory. keep their posting privileges to lineout where nobody has to read them. the argument of "it's liberal/alternative media posting this, so it can't be offensive" is old fucking hat.

Oh, I see, the scintillating, subtle wit that the Stranger is so known for has clearly flown right over everyone's heads. You are all so brilliant over there!

I dunno, maybe I've just read too many commenters on the other Palin posts here comparing her to a porn star and talking about how she's going to blow McCain any second to be able to recognize the brilliance.

The shitty misogyny exists, and not just in McCain's campaign. There are better ways to make that point than with this clumsy effort.

Could I just mention to you, in a moment of seriousness, that I spent five-and-a-half years in a prison cell. There were no ladies there. No floozies. No trollops. Not a single broad, twat, cunt, or ho. And I spent those five-and-a-half years because I love this country, not because I was looking for a piece of ass when I got out.

Anybody who excuses misogynistic language as a "joke" is a douchebag who needs a kick between the legs. Way to stoop to the level of a fifth-grader.

Emily, excusing misogynist language that was obviously a joke warrants violence? Grow some thicker skin or stop being stupid. I still can't understand why some "feminists" can only fathom to resort to base acts of violence when they feel maligned, even in jest.

Posted by Bellevue Ave | August 29, 2008 11:47 AM

Serif means feet, like the font for "Trollop." the McCain font is "sans serif."

Hey can you guys make one that says "cunt" instead. McCain called his wife a CUNT as well, right after he called her a trollop. Right after you fix your font problem.

Posted by Jasen Comstock | August 29, 2008 11:51 AM

Perhaps quote marks around trollop would help? But I kind of doubt this quickly photoshopped graphic is going to flash around the country, mobilizing people everyone to vote for McCain in protest against this outrage. So no biggie.

Sigh. Three months of this sort of thing feeding the pumas. How they can ignore the contingencies which benefit the Republicans is mind-boggling but they will. Since the R's are not running against a woman we have 3 months of the stranger, e.g., and progressives, e.g., looking more sexist than Rush Limbaugh.

I believe that is the point of the sign…It is not the left calling Palin a trollup, it is pointing out McCains own historical reverence, or lack thereof towards women. “In his 1992 Senate bid, McCain was joined on the campaign trail by his wife, Cindy, as well as campaign aide Doug Cole and consultant Wes Gullett. At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain’s hair and said, “You’re getting a little thin up there.” McCain’s face reddened, and he responded, “At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt.” McCain’s excuse was that it had been a long day.-Huffington Post

Or maybe I am wrong and they were just calling her a trollup…it seems to me another word would have been used if the reference was not there.

Just because McCain has chose a woman as VP does not mean he holds women in high regards, his actions already show otherwise on many fronts. It does show that he will USE a woman to try and steal votes that have been in limbo since Hillary left the race. I wonder how many “Long Days” he expects to have as president?

No, it wasn't OK, and Obama never said it. I never heard anything sexist come from Obama's mouth, or for that matter, people who spoke for him.

You just think he was sexist for daring to run against your woman.

there was blatant sexism on slog against clinton, and now, we are seeing it surface against palin -- surprise surprise.

the problem with acting like a sexist bigot in order to make fun of sexist bigots is that when you are in the company of sexist bigots they thing you are making fun of the trollop too, not just the bigot (if the bigot at all).

not only that, but it does demean her accomplishment's as a republican woman. we don't have to demean her for being a woman while insulting her for being a republican.

Hypocrite double standard typical libs...

I heard that Jesse Jackson called Obama the N-WORD...

Would it be ok for me to make a cute little campaign sign using that same N-WORD?

Don't you get it, it's funny cause Jesse Jackson called him the N-WORD...

I could go on and on with examples like this...

The biggest problem with you hypocrites don't even stand for what you claim to stand for...

You'll attack someone for being gay, paint someone in blackface, or call someone a trollop based on some anonymous claim...

But it's ok don't worry we are progressive, it's funny that 1000's of people might die in New Orleans cause we might get more votes from unfair pres coverage... I mean it's already proven that we can blame natural disasters on Pres Bush... Haha get it...

I've heard that even the APPEARANCE of misogyny, racism etc could be damaging to the victim class in question?

Oh wait... This is TOTALLY different from Republican hate speach, this was posted on a FRIDAY... Totally different thing and if you weren't a Republican you'd see how harmless this is...

And of course if you don't get it, it's not because you don't find misogyny funny, it's because you simply don't have a sense of humor...

Oh and you mispelled something, or made a grammatical error in your post, and this invalidates anything you said...

Oh and yr taking it out of context... (By which I mean any critisism on Obama is racism)

Did I cover all the lame, liberal excuses there?

It's not just misogyny, it HYPOCRITICAL misogyny...

HATERS everyone who excuses this...

The ones that spoke out against this, well there are progressives who aren't total hypocrites... I wouldn't mind having a discussion with you, even though I almost totally disagree with what you prob stand for, I'd listen...

You guys give WAY too much cover for people like these though, they are allowed to be taken seriously by other non hypocrite progressives...

Cue Barack Obama: This is not the Eric Grandy I know.

Or rather that's what we all know he WOULD say, if His Royal Highness had the time to step down from his Temple and engage with us little people.

OK, so you've taken a statement allegedly made by McCain about his wife, and turned it into a misogynist attack on his VP, whom you in your own opinion see as a calculated move?

Breathtakingly progressive and fair!

Usually when you make a calculated move, you don't actually invest a lot of your own capital into it. You know, because now McCain actually has Palin as his VP candidate.

It's not some throw-away gimmick that he can use and get rid of like Obama's throw-away lines (read: lies) in speeches about being willing to debate McCain any time on foreign policy.

A calculated move is abandoning your pledge to take public financing because you think you'll get more money by doing so.

A calculated move is abandoning your pledge on voting against FISA because you need to win over centrist voters.

A calculated move is saying you'll have direct presidential diplomacy with Iran in the primaries to win over the base, and then semantically escape your previous position when you need to win over centrist voters.

McCain put more on the line, and risked more of himself, by choosing Palin than Obama has done in his whole life on anything.

Too late to take it down, Moloch worshippers.

This shit is saved!

P.S. Say it to Todd Palin's face, pussy boy.

Candidate for “Vice” President Sarah Palin has finally fessed up that her unmarried teenage daughter has been running around town having unprotected sex. Truly, the Lord Jesus is showing us two things by this sad example of teenage harlotry:

1. That a mother who also engages in sexual activity outside of a traditional, Christian marriage (if you doubt this, check out the birthday of Sarah’s first son — April 20, 1989 — and the date she and her handsome hubby eloped — August 29, 1988!) sets an appalling example for her own children. Indeed, studies from Focus on the Family have proven that harlot mothers wind up with harlot daughters 93.4% of the time. Similar studies by the godly gals at Concerned Women for America have concluded that these poor, impressionable girls learn to strut, show inappropriate décolletage and beguile like pushy prostitutes in their very own living rooms.

2. And a mother who values her career (to the point of abandoning a newborn to campaign 24-7 for a new job in another state) above raising her precious family should not be surprised when she FINALLY steps back inside her family home (if she remembers the address) to find that it has been filled with bastards in her shocking absence!

And, honestly, what is happening to our once-godly country when REPUBLICANS are getting all giddy over a unrepentant harlot? I expect Demoncrats to go for that nonsense, but not the party of God. Please join me in praying to the Lord Jesus that Mr. McCain kick this trash to the curb!
