I’m Voting For The Chick

As a woman I think that it is beyond preposterous that the Republican National Convention has actually made up signs that say “I’m Voting For The Chick”.  This is disgraceful on so many different levels that it is almost beyond words.  First off, I have difficulty understanding how Ms. Palin is allowing these signs to portray her as a “chick”.  Potentially she could become the Vice President of the United States, and people are making a mockery of this, this is 2008, what are these people thinking, and why would she allow signs like this.  Nothing like being taken seriously.  Secondly, does this country have any idea how serious the Presidential Election truly is, and with the current state of things around here, this cute little slogan really makes us as a country, look like a bunch of bumbling idiots.  Thirdly, as I have said before and I will say again, this race is about the best candidate and voting for the Republicans just because they have a woman on the ticket is completely obsurd.

Please women, stand up to this and don’t put a sign in front of your home that says you are voting for the chick.  Let’s have a little bit more respect for ourselves than that.  Again, I am not saying who to vote for, but please take this election seriously, the future of this country is hanging in balance.  Don’t get distracted by the nonsense, just focus on the facts.  This is an important decision, and the Vice President of the US needs to be taken seriously, not be a chick!
