HuffPost Insults Palin By Calling Her Snow White

It is interesting to see that the so-called progressive, pro-woman Left levels an attack at her in way that makes me think about how Clinton called Obama's run a "fairy tale." So she is just a fairy tale figure like Snow White to the HuffPost?

Maybe some on the Left actually view women just like Snow White in the fairy tale. In other words women are just there to cook and clean for a bunch of men. They see women as gullible enough to eat something sold to them by anyone that happens to come by their house. These women then have to be rescued by princes (like the Federal Government and Obama) since the Left can't see women as able to rescue themselves. This part is especially insulting:

Dwarfed at the altar by a total unknown. Each rejected candidate now having to gamely march out before the national media to defend this singular act of a political Hail Mary pass. To steal an old adage of former Secretary of State James Baker... putting Sarah Palin into a debate with Joe Biden is going to be like throwing Howdy Doody into a knife fight!

Yes the HuffPost just referred to Gov. Palin as Howdy Doody. Ignore the fact that she beat a 25 year political veteran in Frank Murkowski and fought against Ted Stevens and his pork politics. From all indications she seems pretty smart and capable. To the HuffPost she is just some little freckle faced puppet there to amuse them and look pretty.

Also I love how they keep referring to her as a former-beauty queen as well because it further denigrates and devalues her smarts and ability. I could have sworn that the Dems were the party of Ferraro and Clinton. Maybe there are more sexists like Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann then you might think hiding in their ranks.
