Hillary Supporters Please think about this
I am a 71 year old white Catholic woman with no college education who lived thru the days when we women were kept "pregnant and barefoot". Women's place is taking care of her man and the home, etc. I had 7 babies in 11 years and thought this is just the way it is for years. Around the time of the Women's Movement I began to change and learned to stand up for myself and dislike the condesending way women were treated. I loved watching women assert themselves and gain upper level jobs and educations.
I always wondered if a women could be president in my life time.
I'm sad that the first woman to have this opportunity was so flawed. Her husband abused her and other women and she allowed it. Further she led the attacks on these women.
Hillary has never had to go thru the steps like Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Jordan, and many others who got where they are on their own efforts.She got where she is by being in the shadow of a man. I agree with some that she's very intelligent - her grasp of issues is extrodinary. Had she worked her way up thru the ranks, I'd be very inclined to support her (if she'd not trashed all Bill's other women)
Hillary has let all women down by her constant whinning and distortions of facts. She and Bill have played the victim to the point of hillarity.
Your support of this woman is misplaced. She's not a champion for women. She's a champion for herself.
When some of you talk about sexism, you are mistaking solid grounds for being against her.
Obama has had a very rough time running against the first woman to run for president - he has been a perfect gentleman to her (not all his supporters have been, I admit) but he has. It shows how carefully he tred with her now that he's unleashing his talents and toughness on McSame. There's no way he could be that forceful to a woman and get away with it.
So don't cry to me about sexism. I just don't see it.
I am a proud lifelong liberal Democrat. Please don't let your anger over losing cloud your judgement by either staying home or voting for McSame once Obama becomes the nominee. If you do that, you're no better than the fools who actually are mysoginists and sexists.
