Sarah Palin, Action Figure?

Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin now joins the ranks of running mate John McCain and Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama with her own action figure, complete with glasses, trench coat, and bulging biceps.

The Sarah Palin action figure, created by Hero Builders, comes in three versions: standard, in a smart black business suit; "school girl," a more risqué approach, with high socks, short skirt, and red bra; and "superhero," with short skirt, long black trench coat, and thigh holster.

The six-year-old novelty company boasts more than 40 action figures, including such politicos as Hillary Rodham Clinton, Tony Blair, and President George Bush. (The Advocate)

As a gay woman I am ashamed of the hateful comments written in this blog. . Our comments should not be filled with hate and vulgarity. How can you hate someone you don't even know? We don't like it when straight people hate us . The shoe is on the other foot now so let us show some pride in ourselves . Be as critical as you wish but please keep it in perspective.

Wow, the viciousness contained here is amazing- what happened to Gays and Gay advocates using reason, dialogue, and self-respect and respect for others in order to advance the cause of every person being treated equally? It sure does not seem to be alive and well, and seems to have been killed off by the hatred in these posts. Amazing stuff.

Wow, after reading all this stuff (for the first time ever on one of these sites), i now know why i dont visit these sites. Get a life. Go buy your kids some ice cream or something, find a constructive project to keep you busy, get your life plan in order and stop berating people because they are different than you.
