Quote of the Day (June 19, 2010)

*
Colleen Carroll Campbell:
"Unfortunately, Palin's rise has exposed some ugly truths about the way women often treat each other in public life. From the early Internet rumors about the true parentage of her son, Trig, to this week's flap over her breast size, self-professed women's rights advocates have led the way in vilifying Palin with personal attacks that would be denounced as unacceptably sexist if perpetrated by men. When Palin's name comes up, many otherwise mature women commentators seem unable to restrain themselves from reverting to junior-high mode and savaging with catty insults the classmate prettier and more popular than they."
