We live in a pluralistic society wherein we may all choose to believe whatever ethics we would like to believe in. Our American law is intended to give structure to our society in a manner that reflects our values as a society, in accordance with the will of the people, or ostensibly so. Sarah Palin may choose, then, to believe whatever she wants to believe. But if she really believes what she says here, she might have alienated a lot of women.Completely ridiculous melodrama makes me giggle. She was talking about the misogynistic sacks of shit who spew the "Women belong in the kitchen, not the workplace" nonsense. Does any sensible person really believe that she was calling stay-at-home moms neanderthals? FFS, she was/is a stay-at-home mom. I don't think that you're this stupid, Lisa, so I'm just going to chalk this up to you being an angry snatch."There are still the Neanderthals out there who pick on the petty, little, superficial, meaningless things – like looks, like whether you can or can’t work outside of the home if you have small children – all those type of things where I would so hope that at some point those Neanderthals will evolve into something a bit more with it, a bit more modern, and a bit more understanding that, yeah, women can accomplish much."
Conservatism is at a crossroads now. The movement is deciding how it is going to be defined on many issues, not the least of which is “family values.” If Sarah Palin’s views above are the voice of conservatism, then conservatism has “progressed”. Has it “progressed” so much that women who model Mary, Mother of Christ, are to be considered “Neanderthals”?
John Lofton would be proud.
