Feminists were just as silent about the disgusting gender-based

When that happened, as far as I was concerned the feminists lost any moral authority they might have ever had and revealed themselves not to be a feminist movement, but an arm of the liberal movement.

The feminists are always silent when it comes to conservative
And as for the liberal double-standard on speech, that's nothing new either. They've been trying since at least 2007 to get a "hate crimes" bill passed that could essentially criminalize, for instance, a Christian's right to express faith-based objections to the homosexual lifestyle and perhaps other expressions of religious convictions.
Now, this bill has been resurrected as H.R. 1913, or the "Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009" and it WAS PASSED just this week in the House of Representatives.
Fact Based or Faith Based Policies...sm
Click watch video in the link.
Most impressive statement is how the Bush administration has gotten away from fact based policy making.
CG, me, Hillary's angered base, feminists,
We'll all be pushing long and hard against having what's-her-name represent us and squash the Bimbos Unite! movement before it even takes off.
Well, the feminists of the world will be happy to hear this...
please go public with it. Get it out there on all the blogs.
OMG! Are you freaking kidding? Feminists vote...sm
for Palin? Will never happen. We have 2 months until the election. This convention bump will last a few days or weeks and then you will seem Obama's percentage increase steadily. The debates will be another Nixon fiasco when he debated Jack Kennedy, never mind the debate between Palin and Biden. Soon everyone will see the republican emperor has no clothes!
Another question - in regards to the article and what feminists feel.
Okay - situation question. Forget who the candidates are for the time being. I'd like to know what feminists viewpoints are on the following issues. I consider myself partly a feminists but not deeply deeply feminist.
Okay you have 2 issues: 1 - Abortion (either for or against), and 2. Being "knocked down a notch" in the workforce by men (not getting paid the same, not getting promoted, etc). If you have a candidate and he or she is for Abortion, but he or she will not do anything to help women advance in their jobs. What issue is of more importance to you. This has nothing to do with Obama, Biden, McCain, or Palin. I know what their viewpoints. I'm just curious what feminists are more interested in (abortion rights or not being "kept down" (not sure that is the right term) by men. I hope this doesn't start arguments, I'm just really curious how other women feel.
At least it will be with the intended gender......

I was trying not to be gender specific
Gender is implied in the name
the females are peahens!
If you do a search on gender dysphoria
as I have, you will learn that human sexuality occurs across a very wide spectrum, not just gay, straight or bisexual. My 10yo son never picked up a truck or gun or whatever you might consider "boys" toys. Even before he could speak a word he was playing with dolls. That was nature, not a choice. At this point, we cannot say for certain that he is gay; we can only rely on his statements that he is angry and sad that he was not born a girl. If I thought "fixing" him would make him happier, I would do it, but all my husband, my family and I can do is provide support, love and a really good therapist to help deal with those feelings of isolation and loneliness.
So playing the gender card to get votes

Is there a female gender for the word Messiah?

Barbie's Web Site Promotes Gender Confusion
I (like most mothers) used to think my 4-year-old was the smartest kid on the planet. But even I would have been very surprised if she could have navigated her way to the internet and completed a POLL.
This is pretty funny!
Barbie’s Web Site Promotes Gender Confusion  12/30/2005
The iconic Barbie Doll has become another tool for promoting gender confusion among children. On the Barbie Web site, www.Barbie.com, there is a poll that asks children their age and sex. The age choices are 4-8, but as Bob Knight, Director of CWA’s Culture & Family Institute, notes children are given three options for their choice of gender. Click here to listen.

SP cult strangely silent

We're not silent Clarice
But we are tired of the same ol retorec put out by the crats. We don't love to hate the O. We hate what is happening to our country. True that the stock market closed up today, but as all economists are saying (this was on CBS today), don't get so comfortable, especially because it fluctuates on a daily basis so rather than look the fool when it goes down it would be wiser not to comment on a daily fluctuating statistic.
But I did get tired of coming to this board and seeing all the people who don't drink the kool-aid get bashed all the time, so just stopped coming. It's sad to see the Obots blatantly chanting the praises of the O when there is nothing to praise yet. As we've been repeatedly told over and over... "It's only been a month". So with that said "It's only been a month" - stop praising him and claiming he is walking on water.
And what's up with him laughing at Americans on public TV. The country is heading for depression and he's laughing about it???? If he thinks what we are going through, losing our jobs and homes and going hungry is amusing and funny while he and his cronies throw their weekly parties with our tax money, then that is truly low class.
So to the crats, hope you have a fun little board here. I'm leaving to go to the real world. - and which by the way I won't post as anyone else. Just tired of it all and the past couple days of not reading the uneducated messages here spewed out by the crats have been refreshing.
Have another glass of kool-aid.
They already ARE allowed to stay silent. That's the irony of this.
It's just one crazy loon who wants to foist HIS version of the world on the rest of us, which is no better than ramming religion down a person's throat. What about those who wish to say the pledge, now they can't. It was better the way it was... Say it if you want, don't say it if you don't want to. That way everybody has the freedom to choose.
You are oddly silent in refuting anything posted...
about Obama. I don't know how posting his agenda for change is bashing him...? lol.
And again, they fall silent.....stuck her foot in
xx
Probably silent on this because it was an idiotic, rabid dem post
That's disgusting.
“We haven't even buried the dead yet, and they're trying to pin the untold lives and livelihoods lost on an opponent for political gain.”
There does not seem to be any cellar-bottom slime pit these conservatives won't wallow on if they can find it. It never occurs to these subhuman slugs that the outrage over poor performance by this administration - to put it mildly - is occurring because PEOPLE ARE DYING. They can't forget their own selfishness and blind leader-worship for even one week. It's truly a disgusting and, we hope, branding behavior they will never live down.
Day after day after day, people have no food, no water, no place to go, no information. They are forced to sit in the sun under armed guard while their babies and old people die. Even when they get lucky and get on a bus and get to Houston, they are turned away and told to go elsewhere.
Let's face it, conservatives, your bumbling leader and his incompetent crony appointees have made a terrible disaster umpteen times worse. Condi goes out shoe-shopping while Americans bake to death on swamped pavement. Meanwhile Bush smirks into the camera and declares we could NEVER have forseen the consequences. Please. Perhaps his worshippers are that stupid. The rest of us are not. That has nothing to do with politics - we all want those people to get the help they need. We don't want to hear stupid excuses or lectures. Help them for God's sake. Stop covering your political tail ends and blaming the victims for the government's failings. How long are you going to wait???
Yes, very disgusting.
It's a shame your lawyer was afraid to go public. My guess is he wanted to continue to work and understood how dirty politics work.
I hope, if you see any public similar examples of what happened to you, that you go public in support of the victim, since we all know how they love to Swiftboat those who expose their wrongdoings.
Disgusting
What a disgusting comment.
Disgusting!
How can Obama say that the Democratic party needs the Clinton's so badly? All they've done is given Democrats a bad name! What they need to do is kick the Clinton's out of the party and forget they ever existed! As far as Bill's behavior - doesn't surprise me - someone finally told him NO and they only way he knows how to handle it is to pout like a 3-year-old. Pathetic!!
How disgusting
Insituating that someone is racist or prejudiced simply because they say someone scares them? Grow up!
Disgusting is right...........sm
It is disgusting to me that people cannot see through Obama's platform. There will be NO ice cream!!!
Truly disgusting
I caught this either last night or the night before. It's one of those videos that you say just have to say "no, she didn't just say that did she?" For those who can't take the condescending elitist propaganda bore Keith Olberfool, Mz. Garofool's rant starts at section 3:02. I watched the first portion of the video cos I used to love him, but now it confirms why I don't watch him anymore. He spreads fear and paranoia and nothing he has to say has a shred of truth to it.
There are a lot of comments below the video that are an excellent read.
http://hotair.com/archives/2009/04/16/garofalo-outdoes-herself-tea-parties-all-about-white-power-says-d-lister/
I read a post below about some petition to sign. If anyone should be denounced it is Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow, Anderson Cooper and anyone else who uses the derogatory term for the people who supported the tea party calling us "teabaggers". Anyone who uses that term should be fired. As I watched the two stations the other day (which was hard to do without throwing up) I have never heard so much negativity in I don't know how long, well I guess since I stopped watching them last summer.
I know they've got the lowest ratings on the air and all I say is if they keep up what they are doing I'm looking forward the the elections in 2010 when people will say enough is enough and vote out the democrats who are taking our country down. So I guess I should be happy with what they are doing. If they keep it up 2010 is going to be a great year for the republicans.
Disgusting isn't it.
The amount of money that we spend on people who aren't even citizens and yet our government keeps knocking down American citizens. Not only is it not fair but it is just downright wrong. If they want to live and work in the USA, they need to become citizens and pay their taxes, etc. Companies hiring illegals should also be fined huge bucks so they stop this BS.
Truly disgusting...but also very
It's not just Tennessee Republicans...
Based on what?
Your wishful thinking? I find it hard to believe you're a moderate conservative. 2008 is still a long way off. The liberals better find an agenda other than hating Bush before they'll have any chance in hades of electing more of them to congress much less to the White House.
BASED ON...???
You want to back up that comment?
Or are you just talking out of your backside?

It is a disgusting post
But it's not lies. He did cheat on his first wife many times before he cheated on her with Cindy McCain. He's running as a conservative with family values. I don't believe he has those values.
As for the the last paragraph, I apoligize because it is offensive. I don't believe he was checking out Sarah Palin's butt either and I should have been more careful and taken that part of it out.
The only thing more disgusting
First off John is not married to his first wife anymore. Were you there to know what they was going through? You don't even know what his first wife did to him or what he did to her. Who made you judge and jury?
Second Bill Clinton cheated on Hillary many many times (more than McCain on his first wife), but your okay with that.
Third, John is married to Cindy (his second wife) and he has not cheated on her. They've been married for 28 years and he describes her as "lovely, intelligent, and charming". Now there's a proper gentleman if you ask me! He's running with family values which they have. They have 7 children to include a girl they adopted from Bangladesh at a time when this child needed all the love and family she could get. John stood by Cindy's illness every day and with his help she was able to recover. He never once let her down and he said he is very proud of her that she made it through it. The ups and downs they have been through together as a couple and the children they raised and gave everything they could make them stronger as individuals and these are positive family values.
Third, when info is brought to light about Obama and what he has done you'll be the first to go on the attack "that was a long time ago, that's been disputed, blah, blah, blah", but then you'll bring up something in the way past about McCain and act as though it just happened yesterday.
As for the remarks about he left his wife because she wasn't pretty anymore from the accident. Give me a break. That's not why he left her. Oh it does't make for an interesting story for the liberals. But there was more to the break up of their first marriage than just "she wasn't pretty anymore". C'mon now, you can't actually believe that!
Thanks for the apology of the "looking at her butt" comment. That was about as id!otic a statement than if I was to say "Oh look, Obama was glaring and staring at Carolyn Kennedy's chest" when he just happened to be looking down. And I'm sure I could find some film clip to back up that.
your arrogance is disgusting
you have no idea where this poster is now. She and her hubby have worked hard for years. Maybe where they are now is: own home, no debt, able to live comfortably without needing to rely on anyone but themselves. Maybe they raised a family. And furthermore, being a "typist" as you say is making an honest living. you have a problem with that? At least they are not waiting for someone else to take care of them. Where they are now is people who can be proud of their lives and what they have done. Too bad you are too small minded to see that.
Disgusting sums it up better. n/m
That is absolutely disgusting
what ever happened to the value of human life???
Seriously, what has this world become?
Pretty disgusting if you ask me
I thought the whole world was going to end if they didn't get their bail-out. Key point: Union leaders summoned to Detroit to make concessions. Lower wages for American workers and the auto employees never made $70 an hour to begin with. Guess they can look forward to wages competing with Mexican wages.
I know! Such a disgusting state! nm

Groan: What can I say? It's disgusting
It wasn't worth putting our great-grandchildren into debt. I'm sorry but I doubt it will work. Nothing has worked so far.
The crap in that package isn't worth the paper it's written on. It's not going to "save our economy." It's going to make it worse. There's nothing in there that will help most of us.
Just my opinion.
Thanks for posting - they are all disgusting
This spending has gotten way out of hand. How can any president (past and present) dictate to the American people that we have to make sacrifices when they do not.
If they are supposed to be leaders then shouldn't they lead by example.
Just because a previous president spent money he shouldn't have doesn't mean current presidents should be able to get away with it. As my mama used to say "If they jumped off a bridge would you do it too?" (Smart words mama).
We've got 2 wars going on (2 that I'm aware of), and a depression hitting our country. I'd have more respect if Obama would come out and say to America -
"Look, we are in the middle of a war (or two), and a financial crisis here in our own country. American citizens across the country are losing their jobs, homes, health care. Some are going hungry. Some have no place to live. Now is not the time for our government to be spending excessively. How are we supposed to be respected if we spend uncontrollably using taxpayers money for our personal pleasure. Even if we were to receive a private donation to hold a party, we will not out of respect for all Americans. We will use the donation provided to help stimulate the economy and create jobs. From now on we will not be hosting weekly "cocktail" parties for my staff and the Washington politicians. We will however, have special occasion parties and dinners for foreign dignitaries when they come to our country. The money that is spent on the parties that only pleasure ourselves will be put back into the economy to stimulate and grow jobs". Yes, I would respect him much more. I also remember some speech he gave about the helicopter issue and he said something about since he's never had a helicopter before what is available to him now is better than what he had (I remember a lot of journalists laughing and I did too), but now I understand he's changed his mind and spending money on new helicopter or refurbishing or something. Haven't personally read about it, just bits of news pieces here and there.
Here's something I would respect him even more for and I could probably even stomach his weekly parties, is if he opened part of the white house grounds each month and had a big BBQ for the homeless and hungry, and offered them a tour of the white house.
Seeing as a lot of people on the board were screaming and crying about people not wanting to give to others who need it, I would be more than happy to know my taxpayers money is going to help feed the hungry and offer them a little entertainment once a month or so.
Amen to that, disgusting. nm

You're disgusting!
It's people like you who give pro-choicers a bad name. You come off looking not just callous, but ignorant of basic reality. Hello! Did you have any training at all about anatomy and physiology before you became an MT? Or did you just take a typing class?
Tiller would perform an abortion up until the moment the baby's feet were delivered (assuming you had $5000 bucks).
According to you, this new human being has "NOthing. Nothing at all. Zip. Nadda. There is no ability to form thoughts."
Why? Because his mother didn't want him?
So your definition of when humal life starts is wholly determined by how much his mother wants him?
Do you see how preposterous your comment is?
As far as your ridiculous statement "Pain may be present but of course temporarily" - well, that also goes for Tiller the Baby Killer. So, according to you, his execution was hunky dory because his pain was only 'temporary.' You know, like burning at the stake or being hung from a tree or being in a Nazi gas chamber. Yep. All temporary. What a pathetic attitude you have.
You make it impossible for people to listen to the pro-choice debate, because you insist that a newborn is nothing but a lump of tissue - even at 40 weeks.
What a sad little view on life you have. Why would anyone listen to you? You're exactly why people with empathy and intelligence refuse to support abortions.
Funny. "Now mind your own business" is exactly what Dr. Menglee would have said. You're in fine company there, my dear.

It is based on income . . .
not on grades. You have to keep your grades up to keep receiving it, BUT the primary requirement to receive it is low income. So do you thing those who have done well for themselves should be required to give money to those who are below them if they are trying to do better? Because that is what is sounds like. As long as it is benefiting you, it is okay because you are trying to do better?
No matter how you slice it, you are still taking from those who have and giving it to havenots. Just stay consistent with your argument. Who is to say who HONESTLY deserves aid?
Yup. The one's that's based in reality.
As in the real deal.
Based on your response...
Your moniker is a misnomer...it should be Christian with hate!
