Label Whore


In an interview with NBC news anchor Brian Williams, Sarah Palin, when asked whether or not she considered herself a feminist, said she doesn't like to label herself. Hmm. Really, Hockey Mom? Is that right, Pitbull in Lipstick? You don't say, Maverick? Seriously, Miss Wasilla? Don't like labels, huh? Well, I mean, except for Chanel, Valentino, Gucci, etc.
Hey, Sarah--remember when you said this?

It’s like kind of providential yesterday what happened to me,” Palin said. “I am reading on my Starbucks mocha cup the quote of the day. You’ll never believe what the quote was! It was Madeleine Albright, former secretary of state and U.N. ambassador, and Madeleine has as her quote of the day for Starbucks — now she said it, I didn’t say it — ‘There is a place in hell reserved for women who don’t support other women.’

Actually, she said there's a place in hell for women who don't "help" other women, but whatever. Just want to make sure that I understand there's a place in hell for me if I don't "support" a woman who doesn't "support" other women?
