No need to debase yourself to make that point. Referring to her as a "bitch" does nothing to make your point more valid. I have deep distaste for Clarence Thomas, but I'd never refer to him by the n-word. Your elaboration here is far more interesting and appropriate than the original comment.

Normally I'd agree. I just think this issue is kind of way out in a class by itself, outside the bounds of ordinary disagreement.

Sarah Palin is someone I pretty much disagree with on almost everything, but I would not use such language to refer to her and I would not advocate boycotting a company for appointing her to their board. I might roll my eyes or scratch my head but that's about it.
