steinem on palin

i have to share this wonderful article, palin: wrong woman, wrong message, written by gloria steinem. some of my favorite quotes:

"he may have chosen palin out of change-envy, or a belief that women can't tell the difference between form and content, but the main motive was to please right-wing ideologues..."

"palin's value to those patriarchs is clear: she opposes just about every issue that women support by a majority or plurality."
