WSJ: Why Feminists Hate Sarah Palin
Cathy Young writes for the WSJ explaining the irrational behavior of the most prominent victims of Palin Derangement Syndrome, left-wing feminists.![[Why Feminists Hate Sarah Palin]](http://s.wsj.net/public/resources/images/OB-CI321_oj_unc_D_20080914222545.jpg)
Left-wing feminists have a hard time dealing with strong, successful conservative women in politics such as Margaret Thatcher. Sarah Palin seems to have truly unhinged more than a few, eliciting a stream of vicious, often misogynist invective.
You’d think that, whether or not they agree with her politics, feminists would at least applaud Mrs. Palin as a living example of one of their core principles: a woman’s right to have a career and a family. Yet some feminists unabashedly suggest that her decision to seek the vice presidency makes her a bad and selfish mother. Others argue that she is bad for working mothers because she’s just too good at having it all.
