发帖数: 29846 | 1 Do your part to help spread that one around. And go by The Anchoress’ place
and thank her for the find. She’s got a thing or two to say about it all:
Let’s keep making believe that entities besides Democrats, Democrat
operatives and the Mainstream Media are talking about banning contraception.
Let’s keep promulgating the utter lie — and that’s all it is, a big,
fat lie — that some mean, out-of-touch bishops are trying to take women’s
birth control away from them! You know, the birth control that the CDC
reports (pdf) 99% of American women call readily available and affordable.
Let’s keep talking about a 30-year old student/activist (who attends
one of the priciestschools in the country) whining to congress that her
birth control should be free, and pretending that this is a real issue.
Let’s keep pretending — along with the phonies who act out cases of
the vapors when they think it’s politically expedient to do so, that a
radio talk show host who used vulgarisms about her is somehow more
misogynistic and more vulgar than the cable-tv hosts who have called
conservative women c***s, or the cable-news guys who call them “sluts” or
“bags of meat with lipstick”. Etc. Etc.
I mean, let me be clear — I think Limbaugh went down a foolish and
unconstructive route with his vulgarisms. But excuse me if I remain
unpersuaded by the hysterics and demands for“repudiations” from people who
were not the tiniest bit scandalized when other women — the wrong sorts of
women, not “real” women, I guess — were called names that were equally
as vulgar if not more so. Spare me the theatrics, please. If Limbaugh is to
be burned if effigy, let him be joined by Bill Maher, Keith Olbermann and
others to be named later.
If you’re not willing to do that, then shut up. Stop pretending.
There’s more. Go now and read the rest. It’s well worth the few minutes
it’ll take. Then pass her piece and that video on.
Stop the lie in its tracks. Take The Anchoress’ words to those who are
spouting off about this so called war on women.
Shut up and stop pretending. |
