According to the Right Wing
Monday, September 15th, 2008
Here’s the way the world looks, if you’re on the far Right of US politics.
| Right | Left |
| If you are a popular republican female candidate you are ‘energizing the base’. | A Democratic male candidate who is popular with millions of people you are an ‘arrogant celebrity’. |
| If you’re a 13-year-old Chelsea Clinton, the right-wing press calls you ‘First dog.’ | If you’re a 17-year old pregnant unwed daughter of a Republican, the right-wing press calls you ‘beautiful’ and ‘courageous.’ |
| If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you’re a Christian. | If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years with whom you are raising 2 beautiful daughters you’re ‘risky’. | If you grow up in Hawaii you’re ‘exotic.’ | Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, you’re the quintessential ‘American story.’ |
The list above is excerpted from the Arkansas Blog of the Arkansas Times.
