Violence against women on TV surges U.S. watchdog reports

It’s time for women to start complaining to the heads of networks.  Violence against women is not a punch line, humorous or entertainment…..it’s real, it’s destructive and it needs to be stopped.  Is it any wonder that violence against women and girls is a common occurrence in this country?
2005 statistics show that on average 3 [...]

One More Enemy

Hatred compels people to do horrible things. Things such as walking into a church and gunning a man down. Things such as killing police officers because it is feared they will take away guns. Things such as beating a homosexual to death.

G. Gordon Liddy On Sotomayor: ‘Let’s Hope That The Key Conferences Aren’t When She’s Menstruating’

My first reaction was “oh no he didn’t” but yes, unfortunately Liddy did say this. The up side is his sexism isn’t veiled and open for defense, it’s right out there front and center.  Is it seriously his contention that women of child bearing years should not hold positions of importance and authority?
I think [...]

Critics Say New Law Signed By President Karzai Allows Men To Rape Wives In Afghanistan

I guess it’s Karzai’s idea of equality to put into the law that men shouldn’t withhold sex from the wife longer than once every 4 months.  Of course the man is entitled to sex at least once every 4 days.  So much for equality.

video: Violence against women is just so damn funny

Can you imagine the outrage if this were a black male mannequin?  If they really wanted to get a belly laugh they could have posed her being gang raped…..Sandra Bernhardt thought that idea was pretty humorous.  Some Americans have lost all sense of decency (if they ever had it to lose.)

Why the charge of racism works.

How does one go about proving she isn’t a racist? Let’s face it, the old “some of my best friends are black” argument is so cliche it’s laughable, even if absolutely true.
Think hard….how would YOU prove you aren’t racist? See what I mean?
The charge of racism works so well because it’s almost impossible [...]

Clinton backers to make noise at Dem convention

When either party manipulates a primary in order to install the candidate of the party leader’s choice instead of the people’s choice then that party has become corrupt from the top down and someone needs to call it for what it is.
The Primary season is for the people to select the candidate of their choice [...]

Why the issue with Clinton’s name being put into nomination?

Is the big issue of Clinton’s name being put into nomination at the convention because she is a woman or because the Democratic Party isn’t sure Obama win?
