Womens rights in the USA, who loves you more?

    I couldn't help but get a chuckle after the National Organization for Women(NOW) threw their support behind Gerry Brown in the California governors race against a self made woman like Meg Whitman, less than 24 hours after he called her a whore. NOW followed up to make sure that people understood it is perfectly OK to call Meg Whitman a whore, when their California chapter president said the term was appropriate. At this point, NOW's credibility is starting to look a lot like that of Pres. Ahmadinijad on the UN Human Rights Commission council.

    According to Brown and NOW, Whitman can be called a whore because she allegedly cut a deal with the Los Angeles Police Protective League(LAPPL) to protect Police pensions in a bankrupt state in exchange for their endorsement. Some have suggested Brown used the word whore in a recorded conversation to bring extra attention to his claim that such a deal had been struck without considering the claim's merits or truthfulness. Since the release of the tape, the LAPPL released a statement making it clear that no such deal could be struck because the Governors office has no say in Los Angeles police officer pensions.

    It left me thinking. Would the use of the word "whore" would have been acceptable, even if the allegations were not contrived, and even if the person they were applied to were a male? Would it be ok if Whitman were to refer to Brown as a whiny little bitch? If NOW cant get behind a pro-choice self made business woman like Meg Whitman in favor of a man who uses anti-women pejoratives as political tools to promote falsehoods, do they have any credibility whatsoever as a woman's rights organization?

    It seems that some supposed women's rights proponents are only in favor of Women's rights if the woman is a leftist. For some reason, Republican women are OK to disparage specifically because they are women, and those with the most hateful anti-Women commentary are the supposed feminists.

    When I look at strong, intelligent, self made women like Condi Rice, Meg Whitman, Carly Fiorina, along with the recent cadre of political leaders like Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, Michelle Bachman, Christine O'Donnell, and compare them to female leaders in the Democratic party like Hillary, Janet Reno, Jan Napalitano, Nancy Pelosi, and Maxine Waters, it seems you cant be a female Democrat leader unless you are a lesbian, have cankles, or are a full blown communist. I look at the female journalists working for Fox vs. those working for MSNBC, and my beliefs are confirmed. (has anyone ever noticed that MSNBC has no minorities working for it, but a large portion of their opinion journalists are homosexuals? Diversity anyone?)

    Rebecca, amiright?

    Absolutely, you're right. Anyone would have to wonder why a leader of a self-proclaimed feminist organization wants to refer to a woman with the word "whore". It doesn't make it any better if they put the word "political" before it, they are still calling her a whore.

    NOW is not the spokesgroup for many women (including myself), and this is not the only problem I have with them. But, I've got to go now, and spread my Clickbank affiliate links all over the Internet. :)

    There you have it. Truth just comes to the tounge, no matter how much you hide it. Truth behind women liberty movement is to strip women off there clothes, make them a slave by making them believe that they are free to work. They have to show there semi naked bodies to the public. Thus making them a public who--.
    In return they are getting taxes from both women and man. Extracting labour from every adult. Giving them a false satisfaction that they are free.
    And the children at home, they dont get parents attention, instead they get indoctrination by the media.
    Finally they succeeded in making a nation of sheep. Present generation is the generation of children who were brought up through indoctrination by media. The result: They believed hollywood style 911 attack were carried out by Afghanis.
    Americans dont know anything which does not come out from media, they dont know what is happening in this world except for what media tells them. What a hurdle of sheep this nation is. They dont even know what this recession is all about. They believe dollar is going to rise again. Time is near when billions of dollars will be required to buy a loaf of bread.
    Shame.

    ahh, go tell it to your goat. No one wants to hear your crap about how you hate entire countries and what not. Worry about your own country.

    My friend the problem is this page will be indexed by the hard working crawlers . At a more detailed search this lunacies could be taken into account as opinions of normal people . You can't ignore mad men you must always fight them . The US ignored some mad men for only 2 years and then you know what happened .
