CNN analyst just now: “First night of the Vagina Monologues in Charlotte going as expected.”

By Jymn, on September 5th, 2012

Tweet

Republicans deny they are at war with women. This guy is an example of the reality.

X-posted at Let Freedom Rain. UPDATE: Here’s a petition aimed at CNN to fire Erickson for his sexism. Over 30K signatures were collected as of Wednesday . . . → Read More: CNN analyst just now: “First night of the Vagina Monologues in Charlotte going as expected.”

Fox News contributor: “One of the greatest mistakes America made was to allow women the opportunity to vote.”

By Jymn, on May 8th, 2012

Tweet

Nothing for me to add. Digby says it all: “I like it when conservatives say what they really believe.”

Oh look, this dickhead just happens to be a pastor. Fancy that.

“We should’ve never turned this over to women. And these women are voting in the wrong people. They’re voting in people who are evil . . . → Read More: Fox News contributor: “One of the greatest mistakes America made was to allow women the opportunity to vote.”

What a Republican panel of witnesses on contraception looks like

By Jymn, on February 16th, 2012

Tweet

That’s right, no women. The only woman, a minority one at that, suggested to appear was refused by the committee chairman Darrell Issa.  What is it about contraception that precludes women from the discussion?

Conservative Senator Irving Gerstein removes Liberal and only woman Vice-Chair since Confederation, 17-year member Céline Hervieux-Payette

By Jymn, on February 10th, 2012

Tweet

Shocking is right. But par for the course when it comes to heavy-handed Conservatives. I love the part how Gerstein blacked out “his motion, the debates and the vote”. Transparency? Free society? Guess again.

Ottawa, February 9, 2012 – Yesterday, Senator Irving Gerstein, the new Chair of the Senate Standing Committee on Banking, . . . → Read More: Conservative Senator Irving Gerstein removes Liberal and only woman Vice-Chair since Confederation, 17-year member Céline Hervieux-Payette

A right-wing blogger’s take on feminism

By Jymn, on January 19th, 2012

Tweet

Slithering through the right-wing blogosphere – from Vox Populi via Instapundit to Canada’s proud wingnut Canadian Cincinnatus – is this revealing but puzzling comment about feminism, using the tragedy of the Costa Concordia as an excuse for a lame joke:

Those big, burly crewmen shoving aside women as they prioritized their own . . . → Read More: A right-wing blogger’s take on feminism

Is the Newsweek cover photo (and story title) of Michele Bachmann sexist?

By Jymn, on August 8th, 2011

Tweet

That’s the charge being laid by conservative bloggers and NOW about this week’s cover photo of Michele Bachmann, which depicts her as she so often appears with wide eyes – or ‘crazy eyes’ as Michelle Malkin labelled them. I obviously don’t think so, having blogged about it here and at . . . → Read More: Is the Newsweek cover photo (and story title) of Michele Bachmann sexist?

Petey Ignores Karzai: Fine, Couldn’t he Have Couldn’t He Have Phoned it In? Did He Have to Bring Rona?

Ah, gotta love those Harpercon cheerleaders who claim their masters are great with the economy and the opposition parties do nothing but waste the tax payers’ money.

Well, Well, What do we here? Petey is in Afghanistan. And why? No, it isn’t to talk to the on-again, off-again, soon-to-be-again Taliban friend. He decided . . . → Read More: Petey Ignores Karzai: Fine, Couldn’t he Have Couldn’t He Have Phoned it In? Did He Have to Bring Rona?
