There is nothing derogatory about Palin in the Times article unless you consider a governor hiding her pregnancy until a few weeks of the childs birth. She then proceeds to exhibit a Down Syndrome baby like some stage prop as she enters the national political scene. That was not the end, a little while later she now has her unwed pregnant daughter hold the baby to try and hide her pregnancy....You can't make this stuff up. When it's a vice-presidential candidate involved, that is news. John Edwards got plenty of ink even though his case was a routine one with a husband cheating on his wife....

I also would like to hear your comments on the following piece from the same link you posted on Palin...

Here's a sample:

"Jennifer Rubin attempted to explain why The Jews hate Sarah Palin. (Because they hate Real Americans, is basically her answer.) David Frum rebuts: she is just scary to everyone! Both leave out one hugely important detail.

Rubin's argument (most of which is behind a paywall, so if David Frum has severely misstated it, we apologize!) (found in its entirety here) is basically that American Jews dislike Palin because of all of her bullshit rural working-class signifiers: large family, no formal education, folksy, hunting, etc. Jews, per Rubin, hate that stuff. Jews would not dream of being waitresses(!?). Also Jews love aborting retarded babies.

But weirdly neither author mentions the Really Big Thing that could've scared Jewish voters: her fucking crazy church. Her church that invited the Jews for Jesus to come around to explain that the Jews had been persecuted for centuries because they didn't acknowledge the divinity of Jesus. And then her pastor collected donations for the group. And he said:
