Well... They did not call McCain and Obama "andrological twins."
Overview of the male anatomy is skipped by the media.
Anonymous relative, you are absolutely right.
I have mixed feelings re: this kind of attacks against Palin. It seems like sexist jokes will always be fair game and never sufficently un pc for pundits to renounce to them.
My stomach hurts when I think of how, in this same context, some communities would react to a similar crude gag made at their expense. Yet women are still expected to always apologise for standing up for themselves... (Hillary don't ever use the sexist card you you YOU pantsuit wearing whiner!)
