Through The Looking Glass

Jarrett

Chris Hayes on the GOP/Palin mess: One of the most bizarre spectacles in modern politics is watching the Republican Party attempt to reverse engineer the Chris Matthews/Hillary Clinton-in-New-Hampshire-moment as a means of stoking some kind of feminist backlash in favor of their extreme-right-wing, Eagle-Forum friendly, pro-life, creationist candidate. The same one who called Hillary Clinton a whiner when she pointed out the sexism of the coverage she faced. Really feels like we’re through the culture-war looking glass at this point. 'Nuff said.
