I'm with Gary on this one (sorry, Gary). "Bitchy" and forms thereof may be something leveled at a guy, like "Hey, dude, just stop bitchin' about it!" But at its core, and as the etymology confirms, it's the denigrating of a woman by likening her to a she-dog. When McCain staffers called Hillary Clinton a bitch, the offense wasn't that they were mean to her; they could just as easily have said she was "an arrogant a--hole" or something equally snotty. But "bitch" is the pejorative you need when you want to cut a woman down or put her in her place, and even its recent androgynous use -- along the lines of "Hey, car bitch! Go get my Corvette!" for the parking valet -- is meant to demean the object as someone worthy of dismissal and denigration.<br><br>And women know "dismissal" and "denigration" all too well . . . <br><br><font style="" color="#8064a2"><font style="font-size: 12pt;" size="3"><font style="" face="Verdana">Keely<br>www.keely-prevailingwinds.com<br></font></font></font><br><br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">From: deco@moscow.com<br>To: vision2020@moscow.com<br>Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 14:02:27 -0800<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] The new The Saga Continues...<br><br>

fact that the photo was taken for an article to appear in Runners World

<strong>(CNN)</strong> - Sarah Palin's image is everywhere as she
launches a highly-anticipated book tour this week, but the former Alaska
governor is unhappy with at least one media organization's depiction of
her.<BR>
Palin took aim at Newsweek's eye-catching cover this week that shows
the former vice presidential candidate in her running outfit - <font size="6"><strong>an image that was apparently lifted from a
</strong></font><a href="http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-243-410--13221-1-1X2X3X4-5,00.html"><font size="6"><strong>Runner's World photo shoot</strong></font></a><font size="5"> months ago</font>. Writing <a href="http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=175955933434"><strong>on
her Facebook page</strong></a> Monday night, Palin said the depiction is
flat out "sexist, and oh-so-expected."<BR>
"The choice of photo for the cover of this week's Newsweek is
unfortunate. When it comes to Sarah Palin, this 'news' magazine has
relished focusing on the irrelevant rather than the relevant," Palin
wrote. "The out-of-context Newsweek approach is sexist, and
oh-so-expected by now."<BR>
"If anyone can learn anything from it: it shows why you shouldn't
judge a book by its cover, gender, or color of skin. The media will do
anything to draw attention – even if out of context," Palin also
said.<BR>
The photo is accompanied by text that states "How Do You Solve A
Problem Like Sarah? She's bad news for the GOP - and for everybody else
too."<BR>
Palin has held back few punches at the media in the initial stages of
her publicity tour. The former governor <a href="http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=174541533434"><strong>slammed
the Associated Press</strong></a> for its recent fact check that took
issue with several of the memoir's contentions and, <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/11/16/palin.oprah/index.html"><strong>in
her Oprah appearance</strong></a> that aired Monday, Palin slammed the
way the media treated her family during the campaign.<BR>
The Alaska Republican also doesn't hold back in her book, writing at
one point, "I had been out of journalism for a long time, and it was
pretty obvious the rules had changed. I felt sick about the depths to
which some in the press had apparently sunk, not because it was unfair
to me and John, but because it was unfair to the American
electorate."<BR></div></div></font></div>
