"To be hoist with Ms. own petard"    Shakespear – from Hamlet*

 

 

Feminism died this week. It committed suicide.

 

 

It wasn’t the first attempt. It pushed Hillary Clinton, under a bus to be with a man, named Obama. Though feminists, and their media Eunuchs, dutifully followed her and laid down palms on her path to the White House, they dumped her, like last year’s football team captain, for the mysterious and trendy stranger that captured their heart. Perhaps it was because men were just beginning to admire her for her fighting spirit and inability to quit.

 

 

As if these symptoms were not enough to check into the intensive care unit, a feminist (female) icon, named Palin, emerged from the North. She was not from money, connections, or a political family like Kennedy, Bush or even Clinton, yet she rose to be nominated for Vice President of the United States based solely on her character as a person. A feminist dream, or so we were led to believe, before Palin arrived.

 

 

Feminists, trapped in their own lie, began to knaw on Palin like a wild animal knawing on its own leg to get out of a sprung trap. They asked questions about her so enlightened as to make the King of Siam (The King and I) look profound. When that failed to beat down the upstart, they did the only noble thing they could do next, slime her 17-year-old pregnant daughter in order to stay as classy as they have been from the start. Plans for the down syndrome baby have yet to be revealed since their first attempt failed on the blogesphere.

Stereotypes raised their ugly head again when chauvinist pigs and subservient housewives, disguised as decent people, attacked, and beat back, the gang rapists and their cheering bystanders. Shocked by the reaction they caused, the perps went into street punk mode and said, “she asked for it” and “we were just doing our job as journalists.”

 

 

Experts agreed that it was probably better for everyone that the mob of decent people got to the punks before Palin. Palin emerged from the assault; well, like a trooper, proving finally, that family beats sisterhood by an exponent of 50.

 

  

Other feminists who never registered a pulse when Islamic extremists were stoning, to death, young girls for impure thoughts in Pakistan, or female genital mutilation in Afghanistan, were flat lining on brain wave activity when they asked how she could possibly raise a family while holding down the VP position. 

 

 

Gloria Steinem, sperm donor of the feminist movement, and widely known to lead a very fulfilling and happy family life, issued a do not resituate order by stating:  “Palin shares nothing but a chromosome with Clinton.” “Palin is not the right person for the job.” It was not exactly known out of which, of her two faces, she issued that statement.

 

 

Funeral services will not be held due to a lack of interest.

 

 

In unrelated news, feminist Marlo Thomas left Phil Donahue, egg donor of the feminist movement, for Whitney Houston’s ex husband Bobby Brown.

 

 

 

*The word remains in modern usage in the phrase to be hoist by one's own petard (or to be hoist with one's own petard), which means "to be harmed by one's own plan to harm someone else" or "to fall in one's own trap", literally implying that one could be lifted up (hoisted, or blown upward) by one's own bomb. Shakespeare used the now proverbial phrase in Hamlet. From Wikipedia www.wikipedia.org
