You are absolutely right. This is not about you.

You are claiming that businesses have the right to pay people whatever they want for whatever reason they want, and the victims of that are simply blaming other people for their problems. Not only are you factually, politically and legally incorrect, but that also brings into question your moral character.

Meanwhile, the US government, the Supreme Court of the United States, liberals, the Democratic Party, and women everywhere are laughing at what a foolish opinion it is. They laughed all the way to the polling place, and all the way home, and will continue to do so until you and the party whose views you espouse recognizes the lack of leadership on women's issues and the mistreatment of women and other minorities.

By now, the "moral character" of the average right-winger should be crystal clear:

"As long as I get mine, then f_ck everybody else."

"Whatever it takes to get ahead - even if it means screwing others anyway you can and/or doing something illegal."

It's not just that, it's willful ignorance.

Garcia Bronco can argue all he wants about there being no war on women, and I'll let him. I couldn't give two ****s about whether or not he claims he "wins" an internet argument.

The facts speak for themselves. The Republicans and their teeny tiny world view got soundly defeated in this election. It's only going to get worse for them until they can acknowledge that the demographics have changed since the 1950's/1920's/1860's.

They might be poisoned but they are more dangerous than ever. This has the makings of a blood feud and I do not see this next four being very pretty.

I work around the military. I see racism, sexism, and everything in between. Statistically women report 33% assault rate.

Most single military men laugh at the concept of marrying a military woman. "Are you kidding me? I know where they have been!"

Women have their own issues which we might not be completely sympathetic or aware of but they exist. I do not consider myself a feminist by any means but when you are running for NATIONAL office you need to think about the larger good.

Anti-tax champion Grover Norquist says President Obama won reelection by portraying Mitt Romney as a "poopy-head," not because of his economic policies.


Appearing on CBS's "This Morning" today, the president of Americans for Tax Reform suggested Obama's reelection did not signify a national choice on tax policy and disputed the notion that Americans chose Obama over Romney because of his repeated argument that wealthy Americans should pay higher rates. Instead, he said, Obama won on his negative portrayal of the GOP candidate.


"We just had an election, and the House of Representatives was elected committed to keeping taxes low," Norquist told interviewer Charlie Rose.


"The president was elected on the basis that he was not Romney and that Romney was a poopy-head, and you should vote against Romney, and he won by two points," Norquist said, referring to Obama's 50 percent to 48 percent margin of victory in the national popular vote. "But he didn't make the case that we should have higher taxes and higher spending. He kind of sounded like the opposite.


(Really a Poopy head Who talks like that?)

You really care about the viewpoint of women by the GOP? Yet you have that as an avitar? I have no argument against the claim against the GOP agenda being an affront on women. But you sure do look like a clown.

In the words of their standard bearer the smirking monkey: "Bring 'em on!"

These vermin are as great a threat to our republic as any terrorist organization.

What exactly can Obama get past an obstructionist congress?

I don't think people really understood or understand Ayn Rand. She was a soviet who envisioned a czarist perspective of capitalism from a context closer to serfdom than we have ever experienced until recently. I do not claim any expertise on her but think some of her ideas are archaic and short sighted.

This is an essential primer: Interesting bullet points to be sure.
