To me, the very fact that Ms. Palin is able to run for VP with her views toward women's and girls' reproductive rights is worse than ironic; it's a slap in the face of the strides that (should) have been made over the past four decades.
Wait a minute. she doesn't share your beliefs and priorities so she shouldn't be eligible for office? please tell me that isn't what you meant, because that is no different than a christian sitting at home saying the reverse of obama. that misses the whole point of having an election to begin with.

Eh no, that's not what I was trying to say. What I meant was that if it weren't for the advances in society that women have achieved, largely because of rights that Palin opposes, she wouldn't even have the chance to run for VP.

she opposes abortion. that has exactly zero to do with her ability to run for VP.

i'm pretty sure she supports a woman's right to work, right to vote, and things like that, so i'm not really sure what exactly you are saying.
