Women in Politics

There is something egregiously unattractive about women in politics. No, I'm not saying that Sarah Palin is not an attractive women and I'm not limiting it to her alone, nor am I saying that they shouldn't be in or can't handle politics. But it is unappetizing to see a women in front of a crowd of supports and talk trash about an opponent. Men do it day in and day out, that is what men do, they bicker and argue, point fingers and call names. As a nation I think that we hold women to a higher standard to rise above these petty arguments and cheap tricks and be the voice of reason in a political system that is based on who can dig up the dirtiest tidbits about their opponent. Politics is an occupation that is unbecoming of a women. It forces them into a position where they have to lie or at the very least exaggerate the truth in order to accomplish their goal.

That is my soapbox for the day.
