Sexism, noun

From the Oxford English Dictionary:
sexism, n: prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of sex.
(my emphasis)

Do we need to explain to the McCain campaign the difference between sexism and satirical criticism? Just because someone is a woman and you're making fun of that someone doesn't automatically make it sexist. Why are you doing this to me Carly Fiorina? I don't want to even have to think about Sarah Palin anymore, let alone talk about her, and you all keep making me. Of course, that's been your ploy all along. But we're on to you, McCain. America is on to you. I hope.
