Remember when feminists gave Bill Clinton a pass, when it was revealed he had "sex with that woman" Monica Lewinsky, regardless of the fact that the situation presented a classic feminist example of sexual harassment--that is, a male boss (you can't get any more powerful that president of the United States) has sex with a female subordinate (in this case, the lowest of the low: an intern). Remember when feminist championed Lorrena Bobbit for slicing off her husband’s penis, as if that were a rational recourse for the situation she put herself in with her unfaithful husband? <BR/><BR/><BR/>Feminism, at root, is all about “voting” for the woman (whether in a voting booth, a court of law, the White House, or the bedroom), *regardless of the facts involved*—so long as the person on the other side is a man, a conservative, or in Clinton’s case, an ideological sympathizer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129587.post-31692450935026623012008-09-10T14:32:00.000-07:002008-09-10T14:32:00.000-07:00McCain is a mediocrity also, yes.

He has admitted his ignorance of economics and intends to interfere greatly in the economy. <BR/><BR/>I would note that it's a common observation on the right that Obama has problems when he is away from a TelePrompTer. (Did I get those caps right?) On his own, he makes a lot of mistakes.

And the problem is that the bumpkin peasants that make up most of the electorate are too stupid and unenlightened to put their faith in those who know far better than they what is in their own best interests. They are concerned with stupid idiotic stuff such as their standard of living, quality of life and such.<BR/><BR/>Given that there are so many selfish peasants out there, that's why it is so important to be proactive and register lots of illegal aliens and dead people to vote and to encourage them all to turn out multiple times on election day. <I>That's</I> the path to victory. And we can get lots of trail lawyers to volunteer to "observe" polling places and be prepared to look for/create grounds to file immediate lawsuits. And perhaps Jimmy Carter can be persuaded to monitor the election to make sure that the correct side wins. I'll bet that the contacts that Nancy Pelosi has been using when trying to negotiate foreign policy with the Columbian FARC terrorists are also friends with Hugo Chavez and can put her in touch with him - that is, assuming that she is not already in touch with him. Hugo Chavez knows how to run an election.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129587.post-28413934345339423872008-09-09T22:39:00.000-07:002008-09-09T22:39:00.000-07:00There is a seemingly-bulletproof liberal conceit t...There is a seemingly-bulletproof liberal conceit these days that their people genuinely don't smear the opposition, but the opposition smears them. This is, of course, because they view their people as noble and the opposition as evil, and anything an evil person says about a noble person is a lie, while anything a noble person says about an evil person is just "telling it like it is." There is a separate liberal conceit that only they have been enlightened with the Truth about the Issues and the Solutions to our Problems.<BR/><BR/>These two conceits, combined, lost the 2004 election for them. Kerry was projected to win 317-202 or something like that in late August, and we all know how that turned out. Mainstream America is less partisan than the hardcore left, and they do not like being the subjects of condescension. The liberals will keep it up -- they can't not do it; it's not who or what they are to stop doing it -- and it will come down to a battleground state, just like before, and the accusations will fly, no matter who stands the "winner" at the end.<BR/><BR/>They who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Buying a cache of guns and seeds and setting up a bunker for the long night is seeming like a wiser and wiser project every day...Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10125745545009130612noreply@blogger.com
