WaPo: Sarah Palin Promotes ‘Freedom For Sex Trafficking’

Freedom has many meanings!
When Sarah Palin is vice president, every woman in the world will be able to enjoy the delights of sex trafficking and honor killings — privileges extended exclusively to American women in the past. Thanks to Wonkette Feminism Copy Editor Logan for sharing. [The Trail]

  1. To be fair, there’s not much else to do in small town real America.

  2. ManchuCandidate says at 11:10 am, October 22nd, 2008

    The Snakeheads of China, Slavers of Mali and Russian Mob approve this message!

  3. SayItWithWookies says at 11:11 am, October 22nd, 2008

    No, no, no! Don’t put Republicans in charge of sex trafficking! It’ll be all diapers and ball gags and will end up being very, very expensive and messy. Have we learned nothing from the past eight years?!

    jagorev: That’s why meth labs are popular.

  5. Carrie_Okie says at 11:12 am, October 22nd, 2008

    That Somali pirate endorsement is starting to make sense.

  6. Sussemilch says at 11:12 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Spellcheck claims another victim. To the bread lines with you!

  7. 4tehlulz says at 11:12 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Now that’s change we can believe in.

  8. I wonder how many whore diamonds Sarah Palin will get?

  9. user-of-owls says at 11:12 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Not sure about the trafficking part, but I think the typo was actually in the phrase, “freedom for…homo killings.”

  10. DarkSynergy says at 11:13 am, October 22nd, 2008

    FREEDOM SEX! Oh wait, Freedom FROM sex…. huge difference.

  11. Sarah Palin is an original P.I.M.P. She’s already turned Bristol out…

  12. toastandlove says at 11:13 am, October 22nd, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: But then if you put the Dems in charge they will want the women to “unionize” and be “treated fairly” and get “equal pay” and if you have to pay and feed your sex slaves then hell what is the point anyway?

  13. errr….47th?

  14. SayItWithWookies: Obviously they won’t be directly in charge… you noticed we’re talking abour sex trafficking of WOMEN right?

  15. Woodwards Friend says at 11:14 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Real Americans practice honor killings. If that whore of a duaghter wasn’t leading on that fellow she never would have been raped in the first place. That’s how we roll in the heartland.

  16. hockeymom says at 11:14 am, October 22nd, 2008

    I just flipped on the TV and O’Reilly is about to be on The View.
    This should be amusing.
    (14 minutes after the hour)

  17. Lascauxcaveman says at 11:15 am, October 22nd, 2008

    My Native American friends are wondering if they will have the freedom to have their teepees burned down and their families slaughtered like animals.

  18. Serolf Divad says at 11:15 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Crap, now I’ve got to keep looking over my shoulder all the time lest some young lass I’ve wronged in the past come after me looking to get in a legal honor killing before someone catches the typo.

  19. Woodwards Friend: Are you talking about Bristol?

  20. user-of-owls says at 11:16 am, October 22nd, 2008

    monty: She meant to say 47st.

  21. HIROHITO99 says at 11:16 am, October 22nd, 2008

    At the risk of sounding crass, I point to Bristol Palin and her teenaged pregnancy and subsequent forced marriage to famed ass-kicker and total horn-dog Levi, to support this article. It is not a mis-print. Palin’s all for sex-slavery and honor killings. It’s an Alaskan thing.

  22. magic titty says at 11:17 am, October 22nd, 2008

    I don’t get this story.

    hockeymom: You think he’ll show Hassleback his luffa?

  23. Hey, the Republicans are all about empowering the small business owner.

  24. CankleBiter says at 11:18 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Sounds about right.

  25. KublaKant says at 11:20 am, October 22nd, 2008

    I guess its lucky for Bristol that her boyfriend and sperm donor is not a Black Muslim Terrorist. Those kitchen fires and accidental acid spills can be nasty.

  26. Spellchecking is for elitists.

  27. The Cold Sea says at 11:21 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Is this about buttseks?

  28. toastandlove: I’ve done the math, and I’m pretty certain that sex slaves are still cheaper than wives.

  29. hockeymom says at 11:24 am, October 22nd, 2008

    O’Reilly is trying to be charming…and Joy is having none of it. She’s coming off as a bitch. She won’t even look at him. It’s not effective. Better to be nice and make your point with a smile.

  30. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 11:30 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Honor killings? Is that what the kids today are calling lynchings?

  31. elcapitan says at 11:31 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Lascauxcaveman: If at first you don’t succeed, burn, burn again.

  32. swarm of bees says at 11:39 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Wait…WTF was she supposed to have said? What on earth is going on? What could “freedom of sex trafficking and honor killings” be a “typo” for? Goddamnit, nothing makes sense anymore!

  33. illnoise says at 11:49 am, October 22nd, 2008

    HIROHITO99: Good point, I guess that (even without the typo) her goals don’t include protecting women from being forced into arranged marriages to protect their parents’ honor.

  34. illnoise says at 11:50 am, October 22nd, 2008

    swarm of bees:

    I think the “of” was supposed to be “from.” And I’m guessing the typo is the Washington Post’s, not the way she said it. But who cares, if it’s funny!?

  35. Sussemilch: It is not an error that would show up with a spell-check. It is a usage error, that requires actual proofreading. Which requires some effort.

    Someone was not working hard, thus not being taxed, and this is in the tank for Obama since only non-tax paying, lazy effete, socialist, liberal, black generals are in the tank…

  36. Botswana Meat Commission FC says at 11:56 am, October 22nd, 2008

    I feel like weaving through some rush-hour sex traffic!

  37. In fairness, there’s a sexual position my wife refers to as the “honor killing”. Try and guess which one!

  38. user-of-owls says at 11:59 am, October 22nd, 2008

    Botswana Meat Commission FC: Stop and go. Stop and go.

  39. Mista Eko says at 12:02 pm, October 22nd, 2008

    Will those be Klingon style warrior’s death honor killings? I’m so on board.

  40. Darehead says at 12:11 pm, October 22nd, 2008

    I suppose the sex slaves have to pay for their own trafficking tickets, and the dishonorable women have to pay for their own stakes to get burned on.

  41. DarkSynergy: Freedom Sex? I assume the term has a similar origin to Freedom Fries. Perhaps sex using a Freedom Tickler?

  42. Neon Trotsky says at 12:39 pm, October 22nd, 2008

    Mista Eko: All hail future Secretary of Defense Worf! Qapla’

  43. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 12:39 pm, October 22nd, 2008

    Well, now we know why the First Dude supports her candidacy.

  44. from / for

  45. BobLoblawLawBlog says at 2:03 pm, October 22nd, 2008

    bago: Ah, thank you. How fucking sad that I couldn’t tell if this was her normal verbal diarrhea or a typo.

  46. BruceLee5000 says at 12:49 am, October 23rd, 2008

    monty: wikipedia backs up that dick cheney is the 46th VP and gw is the 43rd president. but this was a surprise to me too. any poli sci majors out there want to explain how the numbers drifted apart? I can’t seem to wrap my brain around it…

    hmm… something to do with assassinations…?

    or, it is just due to potuses having two terms? hmm…

    did three potuses change vp’s at some point during their terms? which ones?
