When Laura Ingraham covered hosting duties for Bill O’Reilly on the O’Reilly Factor last week, she sought out to answer the age-old question: Why do feminists hate Sarah Palin so much? Hmm—I can think of a few reasons. The resulting discussion between Ingraham, Washington Post columnist Sally Quinn, and Republican pollster KellyAnne Conway produced some pretty interesting theories. Let’s check them out:

Theory #1: We hate her because we’re childless spinsters.

Quinn Bradlee is engaged and Rahm Emanuel does yoga. Via Politico:

ENGAGED – Quinn Bradlee, 27, son of Ben and Sally, and author of ‘A Different Life,’ to Pary Williamson, a yoga instructor he met Jan. 12 on the recommendation of her student Maureen Dowd. Quinn tells us he proposed over the phone at 11:30 p.m. Sunday after they’d been in a fight, and he told her his life wasn’t the same when they were apart. Pary’s students include: Rahm Emanuel, David Gregory, Maureen Orth and Katharine Weymouth.

I officially know too much about Quinn Bradlee, and not nearly enough about Rahm Emanuel.

The Times UK has published an excerpt from journalistic power-spawn Quinn Bradlee’s new book, A Different Life. The book is about how Bradlee—son to Sally Quinn and Ben Bradlee—struggled with disability growing up, and also lost his virginity to a prostitute for $35 while on vacation in the Carribean with his parents.

The weird part about this whole thing isn’t that the brothel was called “Heaven’s Gate”; or that he was mysteriously driven there by a taxi driver named “Silky”; or that Bradlee didn’t even figure out what he was paying for until “she started to take off her clothes”; or that he was “glad it happened”; or that he immediately told his mother; or that his mother then dragged him back to the brothel to pick up his prostitute and test her for HIV because Sally Quinn “worries way too much, if you ask me.”
