I’ve not linked to the last couple of our shows as they had little direct Israellycool content. But this week its an all out appeal to our US listeners to get out and vote for McCain. Whether its a positive vote for his ticket (it should be) or a negative vote to stop the Obmessiah… it must be done!

And just for good measure, I Youtubed a short part of the show which relates to the Democratic attacks on Sarah Palin. Enjoy!

Today’s Must Read

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

The Sydney Morning Herald’s Miranda Devine rips so-called feminists a new one over their hatred of Sarah Palin.

Judging by the opinion polls this week, the Alaskan Governor, Sarah Palin, probably will not get to be the US vice-president. But in her brief starring role on the global stage she has been a powerful psychic enema, flushing out the poison at the heart of establishment feminism for all to see.

No more sheathed claws or pretence about “tolerance” and “diversity”. From Madonna to Sandra Bernhard, Pamela Anderson, Naomi Wolf, Lindsay Lohan and Kathy Lette, a certain type of influential progressive woman has been driven to insane rage by Palin’s very existence.

Bernhard, a comedian in America, reportedly said Palin would be “gang-raped by my big black brothers” if she entered Manhattan, a comment she later denied making. In a deranged concert performance posted on YouTube, Bernhard calls Palin a “turncoat bitch [and] Uncle Woman … who jumps out of the shed and points her fingers at other women … You whore in your cheap f–king … cheap-ass plastic glasses and your hair all up. [You'll get] a bikini-waxed fresh Jewish t–t in your face”.

Lette, the Australian expatriate author, described her as “very, very dangerous. There’s something wrong with her … She’s a post-feminist - she’s kept her Wonderbra and burnt her brain.”

The violent sexual language used against Palin would be intolerable, possibly criminal, from a man. Yet these women think nothing of describing the 44-year-old mother of five as a MILP: “A Mother I’d Like To Punch”.

From the moment Palin emerged, the effect on some women has been like this, from an editor of online feminist magazine Jezebel: “My head almost exploded from the incandescent anger boiling in my skull. Many friends … said things like … ‘This feminist wants to murk that idiotic c–t.’ ”

Not that Palin is a favourite of males of the left-leaning entertainment establishment, with Matt Damon last week damning her as a “scary thing”.

But the intemperate reaction by women to Palin flags something beside ideological differences - a weird, visceral rage, with its roots in some entrenched psychic pain. There is an echo of bitchy high-school jealousy of the popular queen bee from the snarling, self-mutilating nerd and goths who vainly lusted after the cute boys she snared.

The consolation for the losers is that homecoming queens are meant to get married, get pregnant, get fat and lose their looks so the self-made strugglers such as Bernhard and Madonna can patronise them at school reunions. Palin, by having it all, has cheated. Not only was she Miss Wasilla 1984, but she married her childhood sweetheart, Todd Palin, kept her figure, had five attractive, seemingly well-adjusted children and was successful in her career.

If she made any sacrifices or compromises they were not apparent. And she had won the marriage jackpot: a hunky house-husband who is able to take a back seat without losing his cojones. She juggled home and family, even breast-feeding in the office, without any angst, middle-class welfare, or even bags under her eyes. How did that work?

Instead of lauding the aspirational quality of Palin’s achievements, establishment feminists despised her for showing up their inadequacies.

There is much more than high school angst to Palin hatred. Her ideology is 180 degrees wrong - evangelical Christian, hunting, oil-drilling and, most important of all, anti-abortion.

There is even a bumper sticker, “Abort Sarah Palin”, and no diatribe against her fails to mention abortion.

Abortion is the emotional peg on which Palin-haters hang their hatreds and justify their intemperance. The touchstone issue which makes both sides hyperventilate has become such a bedrock article of faith for establishment feminists that they question it as little as their born-again Christian nemeses question the existence of God.

Even in light of medical advances in foetal surgery, premature baby medical care and prenatal imaging, it is unthinkable that progressive women would rethink abortion, even late-term abortion.

For them “choice” is not about choice at all, which is why Palin is such a threat.

Who Hates Sarah Palin?

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Greg Gutfield of Fox News asks Who Hates Sarah Palin?

According to many in the media, we truly have discovered someone worse than Hitler — and it’s Sarah Palin.

Head to any left-wing blog or even CNN for that matter and you’ll find the zaniest of conspiracies — froth that even a dude with rabies would find unseemly.

So how can one person create so much bile among folks who claim to be the most tolerant in the universe? I mean, liberals are the good people: They’re open-minded, caring and of course, fair.

But somehow, a Republican lady in her 40s is exempt from this treatment. Perhaps, she truly is the devil in a dress, a ghoul that eats children and pollutes the planet and possibly beats Barack Obama, the patron saint of every customer buying wheat germ in bulk at GNC.

But I know the real reason why every single elitist media type is terrified of her. They’ve never met her. And by “her,” I don’t mean Sarah Palin. I mean “her”, an actual normal woman with a bunch of kids, an average husband and no desire to watch “The L Word.”

She’s scary to these folks the way Wal-Mart is scary to them: Both are alien to someone who blogs about their chakras. They won’t go there, because they’ve never been there.

To them, hating Sarah Palin is a symptom of larger bigotry against the rest of us, the normal. If they saw her at a party, they would wonder how she got in. She’s the anti-Obama, the anti-New York Times, the anti-everything that Tim Robbins loves, which is why I love her — and you should too.

And if you disagree with me, then you sir are worse than Hitler.

Roseanne Barr: I Am a Better Shot Than Sarah Palin

Friday, September 5th, 2008

Updated

Roseanne Barr continues to cry for mental help on her blog, with her recent attention venom being turned to Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

In her latest post dedicated to Palin, Barr lets it be known she would like to kill her.

palin is perfect

for the republicans’ very first ever woman candidate! She has warped ethics, little concern for her family, and likes to draw down on endangered species from a helicopter, steal publicly owned property, and say anything she is paid enough to say.

She is an insult to american women. I would like to challenge sarah palin to a gun dual (sic) in a target practice setting!! I can shoot 100 times more accurately than she can, I just know it!

Perhaps, but Palin would have a much larger target to aim at.

Update: Reader Joseph thinks Barr is challenging Palin to a competition involving paper targets (rather than each other). I am still not sure.

Update: I’ve read it a few more times, and even consulted with the missus. I may have missed the mark on this one.

Meanwhile, here’s a joke Barr deemed fit to post twice.

What’s the difference between a pit bull and the now-famous hockey mom from the RNC?

One’s a vicious, jacked-up bitch that likes to kill animals,

The other one is a dog.
