The point was characterizing women by terms aimed at the fact they are women. You don't like it aimed at Sarah, but it's okay aimed at Meg. I don't think it's okay either way.

Well, she was elected.... then she quit to make all that money she doesn't care about. :p
It's definitely okay if the candidate supports the legalized killing of 1.6 million children each year before they're born. If Meg Whitman was a man, then I would have used the term, 'bastard' instead. Lowlifes deserve the labels they get. And Barack Obama is such a lowlife, I would get banned if I were to describe him with the terms that I really want to.
A government that is kept within Constitutional constraints lacks the power to impose social engineering. The feds would have no say on abortion (which would make it a state issue again, which means that the legislatures would actually have to resolve it to the satisfaction of the electorate, but given the fifty different electorates, that's also going to be an issue). By the same token, the "fiscally conservative, socially liberal" set don't understand that big government isn't wrong because it's expensive, it's wrong because it erodes the values necessary for representative government. Policies that redefine families or otherwise destroy non-governmental institutions weaken the ability of the people to govern themselves without outside interference.
