Less than a month after the president called a law student insulted by Rush Limbaugh to offer his personal support, Bristol Palin says she is still waiting for Obama to call her about derogatory remarks liberal comedian Bill Maher has made about her and her family.
"Dear President Obama, You don't know my telephone number, but I hope your staff is busy trying to find it. Ever since you called Sandra Fluke after Rush Limbaugh called her a $#@!, I figured I might be next," Bristol Palin wrote in a blog post Sunday.
After the fallout from Rush Limbaugh's rants against Fluke, conservatives have argued Democrats have a double standard because, while they condemned Limbaugh's comments, crass statements about GOP women made by Maher, who donated $1 million to Obama's SuperPAC, have not been similarly denounced.
Maher has hurled insults at Bristol and the Palin family in the past, once using a "c" word to refer to the former vice presidential nominee in his stand-up routine.
"If Maher talked about Malia and Sasha that way, you'd return his dirty money and the Secret Service would probably have to restrain you," Palin wrote.
Obama said he felt compelled to call Fluke because of his own two daughters. "One of the things I want them to do as they get older is to engage in issues they care about, even ones I may not agree with them on. I want them to be able to speak their mind in civil and thoughtful way, and I don't want them attacked or called horrible names because they're being good citizens," the president told reporters earlier this month.
Palin wonders if the Presidency has "changed" Obama. "Now that you're in office, it seems you're only willing to defend certain women. You're only willing to take a moral stand when you know your liberal supporters will stand behind you," she wrote.
"I'm not expecting your SuperPAC to return the money. You're going to need every dime to hang on to your presidency. I'm not even really expecting a call. But would it be too much to expect a little consistency? After all, you're President of all Americans, not just the liberals," Palin concluded.....snip~
