'Barack Obama, the first female president'

Article here. Excerpt:

'He speculated that “Congress would get a lot more done” if more women were there. He speculated that, although no women signed the Constitution, “we can assume that there were founding mothers whispering smarter things in the ears of the founding fathers.”

He announced that “more and more women are out-earning their husbands. You’re more than half of our college graduates and master’s graduates and PhDs.” He told them that they are “poised to make this the century where women shape not only their own destiny but the destiny of this nation and of this world.”

And they can look good doing it! “You can be stylish and powerful, too,” he said. “That’s Michelle’s advice.” The first lady, the couple’s two daughters, and the president’s mother and mother-in-law had recurring roles as “strong, remarkable women” in the speech.'

..but the first unabashedly feminist president. That's much worse, given the fact that there is nothing wrong with having us a female president. But a feminist president? Bad idea.

Not that I'm a big fan of Sarah Palin, but I bet she'd be a better president than Obummer.

This is the game Obama is playing. He invents a problem while simultaneously pretending to be the solution to the problem. He'll continually recite absurd feminist statistics which suggest women aren't paid equally and say he's the solution to the problem. He'll talk about a woman's constitutional right to contraceptives without mentioning the fact that no ones looking to criminalize them, its simply a question of whether women should get them for nothing.
