    I long for the day when sexual analogies will not be used to describe a woman's job performance. #fauxnews

    Yes! It's about time a politician took the necessary steps within the bounds of the law to get important legislation passed that will aid all Americans. Right on!

    (Oh, Laura Ingraham, that wasn't what you meant? You think our politicians should just phone it in like you do? Right.) #fauxnews

    @toadaleh: Well, yeah, Ingraham said Pelosi did everything but sell her body, so it's totally not an attack at all! Because we all know that, if Sarah Palin or Carrie Prejean were in Pelosi's place, there would be horrible liberals trying to squelch their First Amendment rights! #fauxnews

    This coming from the wingnut who wouldn't eat restaurants with gay staff fearing they'd give her AIDs by breathing on her food.

    You're a real piece of work, lady/poor man's Ann Coulter. #fauxnews

    @Understater: How could she tell which restaurants have gay staff? What, did she quiz the owner beforehand? That's a great way to guarantee foreign substances will be introduced into your plate of pasta. #fauxnews

    Is schoolyard bullying has taught me anything, it's that if you don't have anything of substance to make fun of, go straight for the person's looks. Even if it's not true or doesn't make any sense, you'll make them self-conscious. You might even make them cry. #fauxnews

    In reply to Are Female Journalists Immune from Sexism?
    This is a duh question. Of course women internalize and buy into sexism just like men do. Tons of female Obama fans last year lambasted Clinton for being too cold and ambitious, and talked about her as if she and Bill were going to have a co-presidency. They do so because they get approval from men, and because they need to distance themselves from the cold feminist bitches out there.

    Women have less solidarity than racial, ethnic, or religious groups because we're in a unique position of "sleeping with the enemy" Gay or straight, we have men in our families.

    The quickest way to get a nod and a cookie from a sexist progressive dude last year was to say "I'm not going to vote for her just because she's a woman" We need a critical mass of women in federal government, in media, in advertising, to stop struggling against the backlash and effect real progress, until then, women in power are crabs in a barrel.

    In reply to Are Female Journalists Immune from Sexism?
    I'm a female journalist among many males. I have a lot of say what goes on the newspaper's front page, and during election season it would make me sick when another editor wanted Palin on the front page cause that "hot thing" will sell more papers. Because I had final say, she went on the front when she needed to be, and Hillary went on when she needed to be.

    I always try to showcase more women when, because most days it's all men in every photo ... but picking based on attractiveness never, ever crossed my mind.
