Opinions/Editorials Title: Annette: Women Have Palin Envy Annette: Women Have Palin Envy June 8, 2011 RUSH: Highland, Illinois. Annette, great to have you with us. Hello. CALLER: Thanks for taking my call! RUSH: You bet. CALLER: I have the answer for you about why Republican women and a lot of women don't like Sarah Palin, and I'm probably gonna cause World War III here but it's a numbers game. Because Sarah Palin is a "10,"and anyone I've found that below an "8" can't stand her. Women are women first and conservatives and Republicans second, and the women that I talk to are so jealous of her. I don't see them that way with Michele Bachmann, but I don't know that Michele Bachmann has what Sarah Palin has. I love Sarah Palin, and I find that when I bring this up with women, they're just insanely jealous. RUSH: Really? CALLER: Yeah. Because they can't give me a reason, and I see in other areas. Now it doesn't matter if they're conservative or they're liberal, they're like eaten up with jealousy -- and if you look at Sarah Palin, she's beautiful, she's smart -- no matter what anyone says, she's smart -- she's got a nice looking husband, she's got beautiful kids, she's got a lot of integrity, and women do not like women who have it all. They just don't. Unless they're really secure. If they're really secure, then they do, but every woman that I find that is real negative about her when I ask 'em what it is about her, they can't put their finger on it -- and then they have to take a good look at the woman, and if she's not above an "8," she hates Sarah Palin. RUSH: Well, now, wait a second here, now, the "8s" and "10s" and all this is a little subjective. What may be an "8" to you might be a "6" or a "5" to somebody else. CALLER: Well, sure. So like in my book, if I look at someone and that's how it's perceived, I mean, they just are really, really jealous of her, and women are like that. They are. RUSH: The starting point here with these women, they don't like Palin, in their mind she's a "10"? CALLER: Yes. RUSH: Right. And they aren't, whether they're an "8" or a "1," they're not a "10"? CALLER: Right. Because if Sarah Palin was really ugly and she had cankles and stuff, they wouldn't hate her so much. I'm just telling you from a woman's perspective, that's how women think. RUSH: Now, now, now. (laughs) It's interesting you bring this up. Uh... (sigh) There's no win here. I thought I had a couple of questions to prove the point, but there's no winning this. CALLER: Well, what do you mean? Do you feel like I've put you on the spot? RUSH: I'm thinking of Democrat women and -- CALLER: There aren't any! There aren't any. RUSH: -- your theory is applicable there, 'cause -- CALLER: Right. RUSH: -- you don't find, on your 1-to-10 scale, many. You just don't a whole lot of threats there. CALLER: Right, and I find -- I find -- RUSH: In the way you claim that Palin is a threat, being a "10." I mean, let's be honest. You just don't see it over there on that side. CALLER: No, and that's what I'm saying because I find -- I find -- RUSH: In fact, remember -- CALLER: I find -- I'm sorry, go ahead. RUSH: Undeniable Truth of Life Number 24, as written by me in 1987: "Feminism was established in order to permit unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society." That's one of the primary functions of feminism. CALLER: And the men who don't like her, I find that the men who don't like her don't like her are because they don't have the same even, like -- well, I'm from a Mexican background, but -- machismo. They don't have even what Sarah Palin has, so she even makes the men, some of the men insecure. RUSH: Interesting. CALLER: I mean, I have talked to people and look at this ever since she started running with McCain, and during the campaign I was almost physically attacked by a woman at Target because she had Obama all over her car and my husband was in Iraq and I had a sticker on my car, and she started picking on me about it -- about the war -- and she started commenting about Sarah Palin, and I said, "What don't you like about her?" She couldn't even put her finger on it. She was, like, "I just hate her," and she just really got in my face. RUSH: So I take it this woman in Target was not a "10"? CALLER: No, she was about a "3," and I said to her, "I think you don't like her 'cause she's really attractive," and my 20-year-old son literally had to get in between she and I 'cause she was coming after me. I'm telling you that's what's at the root of this. Women are very catty. RUSH: So what you're -- CALLER: Unless they're secure they don't like woman who have it all. RUSH: What you're saying here is it's Palin envy? CALLER: Absolutely. RUSH: Like Pelosi. CALLER: It's Palin envy. RUSH: Pelosi's the closest thing the Democrats have to a... No. That's not it. That's how desperate it is on that side. You're right, yeah. CALLER: Yeah. She's kinda nutty, but they don't have anyone who compares. I mean, who? Seriously, Rachel Maddow? I don't know. Hillary Clinton? And I find the same thing with Ann Coulter. RUSH: No, you see on the left that's precisely it. On the left, being a "1" or "2" is the resume enhancement. It's the badge of honor, because there's so much sympathy and feeling sorry for people over on that side of things. CALLER: Well, and then people say stuff to me about Palin 'cause they know I like her, when I say that to them, you know, they'll say, "Why do you like her?" I have a lot of reasons I like her but if I say, "She is really hot," and I'm married, I'm a heterosexual, but she's a beautiful woman and if I say, "You know, she's really hot," they stop. They're done. No more conversation. RUSH: Are you...? What are you? How would you..? You look in the mirror, what are you? CALLER: Well, my husband better say I'm a "10." RUSH: Okay, so you're a "10," so you're -- CALLER: No, I'm not a "10." My husband better say it. I'm not a "10." I don't know. I don't rate myself. I don't really... I think if I looked at myself that way, I would be like a lot of other woman and not like women who were "10s," you know what I'm saying? RUSH: Yeah, but you like Sarah Palin who is a "10." CALLER: Right. But that's because I don't really compare myself to her. I like her, you know? And I'm happy with myself, so I don't have that comparison going on. I mean, if I look at her, I say, "She's better looking than me and she's got it all together. She's smart," but I want someone in office who's smart and more charismatic and who has it all together. I want someone who's got it more together than I do.
