Whoopi Goldberg Says Sarah Palin is a Dangerous Woman

Whoopi Goldberg Too Over the Top?

In a recent blog post, Whoopi Goldberg called Sarah Palin a dangerous woman. While Whoopi Goldberg praised Sarah Palin for being a "tough chick, a babe, and a mom," she also pointed out what she saw as meanness and inaccuracies in Sarah Palin's speech.

First, Whoppi Goldberg claims Sarah Palin undermined Barack Obama's work as a community organizer. Whoopi Goldberg argues that Obama's work allows him to understand how people live, what happens when they lose everything, and what they can do about it. Whoopi Goldberg discredits Sarah Palin's record, arguing that she had no foreign policy experience and that she had supported the Bridge to Nowhere in 2006. Whoopi Goldberg finds Sarah Palin's America First agenda disingenuous and also believes that Sarah Palin was part of an Alaska secession movement.

Then there is the issue of Sarah Palin's daughter. Whoopi Goldberg pointed out a double standard. She argues that when a black teenager becomes pregnant, she is treated as a "welfare mom." Yet when a "nice white lady's" daughter gets pregnant, it becomes an Evangelical Christian choice.

Finally, Whoopi Goldberg decries Sarah Palin's religious views and socially conservative positions. "This is a lady who believes that everything that happens is God ordained." Whoopi Goldberg goes on to discuss taxes, the war, and oil drilling. "This girl is dangerous to me. This is a very dangerous woman, because I believe for her intents and purposes, she's OK if everybody lives a certain way, that is to say, the way God ordained men and women to be."
