Sarah Palin's moose killer tote bag. Bullwinkle is not amused.

The rimless glasses. That shimmery copper lipstick and beauty pageant blush. The peep-toe pumps.

When it comes to spawning trends, Sarah Palin has already proven to be the Madonna for middle-aged women in the Midwest. And now, her latest accessory -- a tote bag that promotes her passion for big guns and killing wildlife -- has hit the market just two days after she was spotted carrying the canvas bag that reads: "Real Women Hunt Moose." Cafe Press has already started selling its own version of the bag for $15.99.
If you're disgusted by her NRA chic, how about protesting with the alternative view with this Cafe Press tee?

No doubt, Bullwinkle will appreciate  your support.

Please do not send this Sarah Palin woman back to Alaska. She has ruined my retirement!

[Ryan]

Just send the moose with lipstick back to the podunk that is Alaska so the country can get back to dealing with the economy.

[susan]

Can someone explain to me why this refers to "women in the midwest?" Sarah Palin is NOT from the midwest and her wardrobe, while pleasant is certainly found everywhere.

Just a random chance to put down a particular section of the country?

meeeyow, hisss!

I might buy the t-shirt just because I do love Moose...
IT'S TASTY (needs to be added)

The pictures the blogger posted aren't the same as the tote Gov. Palin is carrying. The real tote was designed for Gov. Palin by a fan and supporter by the name of Deborah Picou Markowski - a wife and mother in Florida who has a special needs child and admires the Governor. LA Times should at least get their facts straight on where the tote came from - even if they are going to attack it and Gov. Palin as they predictably do. If people want the real tote and not the cafe press knock-off, they should email Deborah at realwomenhuntmoose@live.com.

Ill go moose hunting with Sarah.....rabbit hunting, deer hunting, snipe hunting....no mattah....

[Tony M]

Monica your claws and devotion to Obama are oozing out of your contemptuous article. You are a superfluous Obama groupie and I hope no will need to be medicated. The LA Times much like the NYT seem to just ooze hate filled rhetoric.

[karrie s]

monica...tsk..tsk..it backfired again huh?! By the way, you were not honest in your profile-YOU loathe bad manners? right.

[ladyjethro]

Thanks, Laura!

I'm going to contact the original designer and order my own "Real Women..." bag! I love it.

And 1anonymous1 - Sean K obviously lacks a sense of humor - I thought your comment was very funny! Amf true!

[Dee Wolfe]

Actually, Monica, try a little arithmetic. Madonna is 50 and Sarah Palin is 44. It seems more likely that Madonna is the Sarah Palin for middle aged women. Try a little harder at next time's hysterical screed.

[Tony M]

I understand why my first comments were not allowed to pass the censors, I called the whole article hate filled which is politically incorrect.

I too hate bad manners and rudeness so how could I not have said those things.

[Tony M]

OOPS mia culpa!

[Gen Wiley]

Great stuff Monica, more suited to HUFFPO - where the writers are paid just what they are worth, no doubt, which includes you.

I wonder if you realize how arrogant and snide you appear to normal people (or which there are few at the LAT) and there are about to be a lot fewer. The scuttlebutt says you are toast by Christmas. Hope you enjoy HUFFPO - you'll love it there.

You poor misled liberal nutbag... please confine your comments to the left coast where they belong. We here in flyover country actually admire someone who is willing to be themselves. I pray (yes, to God) for this country's future. You're simply another thinly veiled "journalist" who's willingly swallowed the socialist pill. Pity.

[a.m. young]

"That shimmery copper lipstick and beauty pageant blush. The peep-toe pumps." --- Is this type of catty and condescending trivia worthy of the Los Angeles Times?

[TakeFive]

Isn't shooting a moose akin to consuming free-range beef or chicken? I thought that was considered a more responsible way to treat our feed animanls. Isn't there a proposition on the ballot along these lines?

Perhaps you need to do some thinking on this Monica.

[fishcakes]

I love moose, too. with a raspberry-chipotle barbecue sauce.

[Ralph Woods]

The Whitehouse probably hasn't had a moose head hanging on the wall since Teddy Roosevelt. It's about time to bring some character back to that residence

[sandra m]

Real women hunt moose? I don't think so. Right-wing nut cases hunt moose!

[pippi]

Gen Wiley is a nasty republican -- Monica doesn't mind
your type because she has tact. Palin is a junkyard dog, kinda like yourself. your tone is what's wrong with the country. I hope you lose your job! Why not! There I slung it back in defense of the Corcoran.

[susan pursel]

I love the Real Women Hunt Moose Tote Bag that Sarah Palin is carrying! There have been negative comments out there about "hunting BullWinkle," but people need to get themselves informed and realize that moose hunting is not only legal, but it is a necessity to keep the moose population "in check." We also have moose here in NH and there is no natural preditors for moose. If we did not thin the population every year there would be great imbalances that would reek havoc on many other animal populations and the environment. I wish these people would do their homework before they open their mouths!

[MooseSpirit]

Degrading, disgraceful low lifes who support an evil bitch like Palin and her disrespect for animal welfare. The greed, the hypocracy, the evil. I hope the tote bags suffocate you. Its the human race that needs thinning out, its man thats wrecking the balance of life on this lonely planet. Who knows, maybe Palin will be shooting you slime bag supportes next and asking for your legs to be delivered to her for proof before payment like she does with the wolves she has killed from air. What goes around, comes around, Mother nature will have her revenge, I curse anyone who murders animals for the joy of it. Those of you that support my view and are against Palin, please sign the petitione here http://www.thepetitionsite.com/campaign/signatures/802901064/219 lets speak up for our wildlife and protect it.
