Sarah Palin’s folksy shtick loses its charm pretty quickly when she’s using it to tell you to go fuck yourself. And if you’re a liberal woman, telling you to screw off she is:
At a rally on Saturday in California, Sarah Palin offered up a rather jarring argument for supporting the Republican ticket. “There’s a place in Hell reserved for women who don’t support other women,” the Alaska Governor said, claiming she was quoting former Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
The statement came after Palin had recounted [an experience at Starbucks] on Saturday: “I’m reading on my Starbucks mocha cup, okay? The quote of the day… It was Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State [crowd boos] and UN ambassador. … Now she said it, I didn’t. She said, ‘There’s a place in Hell reserved for women who don’t support other women.'”
Madeleine Albright’s quote is actually, “There’s a special place in Hell reserved for women who don’t help other women,” which is a completely different thing than what Palin said, but don’t hold your breath waiting for tax-cheating Governor Palin to start worrying about accuracy.

Fortunately that spot in hell is far more pleasant than the spot reserved for fascist sows like her.

After you pick yourself up from the floor from laughing so hard, you have to feel for this woman! She doesn’t even have the insight and intelligence to figure out the context in which Madeline Albright may have made that comment. She is too literal and that’s scary when thinking what she would have to read, interpret and make decisions on as VP or President (God forbid they get eleceted and McCain doesn’t make it). I shudder to think of that possibility. Then there would be a special place in “hell” on earth for all of us who voted for her.

This woman is the best thing to ever happen to the DEMOCRATIC party. I’m going to start cheering her on!!

Towleroad has Albright’s response (ouch). He also reminds people that a female governor deciding to charge women for their rape kits isn’t consistent with one woman helping another.
Sarah Palin is the reductio ad absurdem of Ronald Reagan.
There I’ve said it.

Palin’s got tits ‘o steel to take on Madeline Albright. Too bad she’s got a brain ‘o steel, too. She is truly pathetic.

I find it interesting that the Governor chided Senator Biden and other Democrats for looking backwards and yet somehow she manages to trot out Ronald Reagan references at every opportunity. You’d think he was still president.

I wonder how she’ll tie this in with being a soccer mom? And who’s holding the baby this time?

Starbucks?!
I thought that was ELITIST.

Albright has said the quote differently on numerous occasions. She said help other women prior to this current election, but said support women during the 2008 Primaries when she was campaigning for Clinton. Besides, Palin was quoting what she read on a coffee mug so if you have a beef, contact STARBUCKS.

Obama & Albright and all Democrats are deceivers.
They talk the talk but do not walk the walk
Obama rejected an 18 Milion votes women. Pelosi said Obama-Clinton ticket is impossible because Obama can never forgive Hilliary.
Where is “equal opportunity and equal pay for women”?
Unlike McCain, Obama employs less women in his staff and pay them less.
Madeleine Albright talk “There’s a special place in Hell reserved for women who don’t help other women” + “win elections” is valid.
“support” is a form of “help”
Albright should go to hell.

Kevin, I agree 100%. I love to watch her make a fool of herself, because I know the next day the news is all over it, then the day after that from direct result of herself the news is all over the fact that Obama/Biden is adding to their lead in the polls.

If Heaven is where people like Palin go then please send me straight to hell cause it sounds like an eternal party compared to
hideous way these simpletons describe heaven.

The quote should read “Women who don’t like cunts like me are going to hell”.
