“Personally I do not care a fig about what founding fathers realized or would have thought. The mantle is ours right now and we are not bearing it with dignity. However I think the intent was compassion to others, not issues.At least DL spoke in simple words that even reptillians might be capable of understanding.”

“OH THANK U! That's exactly what i was thinking!”

“So what are you saying? And have you ever notice that the majority of Bla.ckwate­r folks look like Cheney.”

“D@MN RIGHT WE WILL!
We will send them to whatever goawd they wish.”

“Willing and ready...”

“you betcha!”

“they have no idea”

“Frankly, I prefer Reverend Jeremiah Wright. His words seem sane in comparison with these nut cases. In my opinion.”

“WE will.”

“Second that.”

“You look really weird, actually. Maybe in a sexy way. Maybe.”

“Equal to does NOT mean the same as.
I'm a feminist and a wife and a mother and a business partner and I've had to fight for parity in the workplace so you can enjoy feeling like you're equal.
No feminist even rallied for bigger houses... that's not what equal pay for work of equal value is about. I live quite happily in my small house with the low mortgage. My husband and I downsized when we started our family and I chose to stay home (because I made much less money than my husband) with our kids. At the time I chose to stay home, I was a contract negotiator trying to convince the company I worked for that the male security guards (qualification - grade 10 education) should not make double what a senior purchasing clerk (qualification - 5 years experience + business degree) made. When a junior purchasing clerk (female job) was compared with a junior buyer (male job), it was found that the clerk needed much more education, experience and had greater responsibilities and the buyer job paid 42% more.

The fact that you abandoned your children and slayed men has nothing to do with feminism..­. if you're lucky to make the same money as a man doing the same job you're doing... you can thank me for that.”

“No. A post-industrial capitalist economy was the worst thing to happen to this country. Easy mistake to make, since feminism arose about the same time...”

“If you think things were better for women in the 1950's you are tripping acid.”

“You do realize that woman and mother are not synonymous, right?”

“The real reason women went to work like GANGBUSTERS is because the cost of living increased and WAGES STEADILY WENT DOWN.

1) Most men will not be six figure breadwinners. When you start dropping babies like there's no tomorrow, the woman will have to go to work.

2) Some women have found that they might want to live for something OTHER than having children. Now they have that opportunity.”

“The corporate state loved the "equal rights" movement -- lots of cheap labor! And women fell right into the trap. Being "successful" means high powered career, having your kids raised by day care and teenage babysitters, and a heart attack at 50, just like the men! Amazing "progress," Good Job Jane Girl.”

“"So because of these misguided feminists:
We are expected to leave our children to go to war"
Expected? You don't register for the draft, no one expects you to go to war unless YOU sign up.
"Only find self worth worth in making money so we can have that fancy house "
I see. The feminists forced you to be shallow and materialistic.
"We have abandoned our children to strangers so we can chase money"
Again, I had no idea the "feminists" had such a strong hold over your mind and actions.
"We have created generations of men who expect us to have babies and bring home the bacon"
I thought that the male is still primary wage earner in 60% of households. If this is your experience, find someone else to be with.
"Tricked us into believing that we can Buffy the man slay any man who gets in our way."
I don't even know what this is supposed to mean. I hope that, whatever it is, you don't do it.
"Made us think we can jog on dark paths half naked and we will be safe because we demand it."
You make a good point. Women should NOT be free to wear clothing suitable to the temperature or run at night without fearing attack. I have often said this.”

“What she said.”

“..As a male, I find that an exceptional point. And a very good argument to be made.”

“Who knows? I do like IKEA...”

“Don't even know where to start.
1. Women hold an unquestionable advantage in divorce court.
2. Men commit suicide a lot more than women.
3. Women abuse their husbands and yes kill them too, much more often than you appear to be aware of.
4. Men are stroger, but I beg to differ as to who wears the pants in most relationships. The overwhelming majority of men would never even consider physical abuse. To suggest otherwise is ignorance.
It sounds like you have a really big chip on your shoulder about men. Good luck with that one.”

“Sure. So I guess the right thing to do would be to even the score a bit, huh?*

* Sarcasm.”

“How about getting some basic martial art training - for both genders - to discipline selves and act responsibly?”

“Seriously?”

“"as long as men have and use their physical advantage over women....W­e will never be the winers."

"Winers"? Um, I beg to differ.”

“What is the number of women killed by men merely as a result of physical disadvantage?

What is the number of men and women whose social lives have been altered by the changes of the last few generations?”

“Then they scream like little girls when they get what is owed to them”

“Actually, their Welfare for the Very Rich worked out exactly as they hoped it would - it just wasn't what they said.

But, see, that's because they were lying. They never intended to help anyone but themselves and their rich buddies. There never was any intent to do good for all, or help the state, or provide for the common welfare. They. Were. Lying.

Don't you get it? When Grover Norquist sold the Reaganites on "drowning the Federal Government in the bathtub", Republicans realized then that the best way to achieve that goal was by stealing everything they could from the government for themselves and their donors. That way, when it all collapsed - they would be the only ones left standing with enough wealth to garuntee their safety and ability to take over.

Is there anyone who hasn't realized yet that Bush's trillion dollar farewell gift to the banks only served to bring the country to the edge of collapse while simultaneously transferring all wealth into the hands of his Wall Street buddies - for their own profit?

And it worked. We're drowning and they have more than ever.”

“Republicans can control the legislature because of the way districts are drawn...ha­ve you ever looked at a map of districts in Florida? There will be an amendment on the ballot in 2010 which will take the drawing of the district maps out of the legislature and put it in the hands of a non partisan commitee..­..when districts are fairly drawn, the Republican monopoly in the state houses and Congress will end.”

“How can 1% fuel 100% of the economy. They can't, but they do consume beyond measure in the attempt.

How many fabulous meals served in fabulous places can a rich man eat?”
