Why do Liberals Fear This Woman?

The venom from the Left against Sarah Palin is obvious and plentiful. One only needs to enter her name on YouTube, and the videos in the search results will be mostly unfavorable or derogatory towards her.

Or search for her on Facebook, where one will find such pages as: "I Have More Foreign Policy Experience than Sarah Palin," "1,000,000 Strong Against Sarah Palin," and "Intelligent Women Against Sarah Palin," with each group containing at least 70,000 members. There is a Facebook page for her supporters, but even that's littered with liberal, attention-seeking trolls.

Tina Fey, who did an unflattering portrayal of Sarah Palin on "Saturday Night Live" during the 2008 presidential campaign, was voted the Associated Press Entertainer of the Year, while Katie Couric won a Cronkite award for her "gotcha" interview with Palin. I can say with utmost certainty that if it weren't for Sarah Palin, Fey would simply be a forgotten ex-SNL cast member on a marginally-successful "30 Rock" TV show, and Couric--well, she still IS a has-been anchor for an anemic-rated evening newscast.

So why all the intense hatred? Palin is despised because she is the living embodiment of everything that intimidates Liberals. She's a strong supporter of the military and the Second Amendment. She maintains a strong belief in God and family. She was pro-choice with her most recent child, and chose life. She didn't graduate summa-cum-snoot from some northeastern liberal university. She is a hunter (which gives the animal rights whack-jobs the willies), promotes the increase and expansion of domestic oil supplies (not going to make many friends with the eco-imperialists with that stance), and she believes in limited government and fiscal responsibility. Plus, Sarah Palin is an attractive woman for someone in her mid-40s, which exposes liberals' insecurities with their own self-image.

Palin, since resigning as Alaska's governor last week, hasn't ruled out a run for president in 2012, despite the predictable opposition from the left-leaning media (and from an increasing number of so-called conservatives). Personally, I think Mitt Romney will win the GOP nomination, but if Palin chooses to involve herself with another campaign, I wouldn't mind seeing her as the VP nominee again. Any polar opposite to Leftism, especially the kind from the current inhabitant of the White House, is good for America.
