Only Liberal Women Can Shatter the Glass Ceiling?

When Hillary Clinton was vying for the Democratic Nomination, did anyone ever question her relationship with Chelsea? Has anyone ever implied that Nancy Pelosi is abandoning her 5 children by serving as the Speaker of the House? So why do I keep hearing, over and over, criticism of Sarah Palin's relationship with her children? Of comments being made that it isn't appropriate for a mother of 5 children, including an infant with Down's Syndrome, to be running for this office?

Washington Post writer Sally Quinn said "Not only do we have a woman with five children, including an infant with special needs, but a woman whose 17-year-old child will need her even more in the coming months. Not to mention the grandchild. This would inevitably be an enormous distraction for a new vice president (or president) in a time of global turmoil. Not only in terms of her job, but from a media standpoint as well."

So all those years of girls being told that we can have a happy family AND a successful career were lies? So the male sex is the only gender capable of simultaneously managing their family's needs and the requirements of their business? Is Sarah Palin not smart enough or strong enough to do the job as well as any man?

Or is the question whether a conservative woman is capable of doing the job? Apparently women's rights only apply to bra-burning, pro-abortion democrats, not for all American women. I pray that Sarah Palin kicks some serious ass.
