Mark Morford, who introduced us to Obama the Lightworker, has a new piece out on Sarah Palin:
It’s more accurate to say that every thoughtful or liberal or intuitive or open-minded white woman I know worth her vagina monologue and her self-determination and two centuries of nonstop striving for equal rights and sexual freedom and exhaustive patriarchal unshackling is right now openly horrified, appalled at what the addition of shrill PTA hockey-mom Sarah Palin seems to have done for the soggy, comatose McCain campaign — that is, make it not merely remotely interesting and melodramatic, but aggressively hostile to, well, to all intelligent women everywhere.
It is absolutely amazing anyone, including a major newspaper, takes this guy seriously. Hat tip to Volokh.
It’s a joke, right?
I wish it were… but it isn’t. Unless you consider San Francisco to be a joke, in which case this could also be considered one.
So.. how is Mark Morford acquainted with ‘intelligent women everywhere’? (Must be his definition.)
I’ve been to the Bay Area, and it’s often difficult to tell the women from the men (or more precisely, males from females) but I can usually spot someone who’s not worth listening to. Morford’s right up near the top.
