[...] Hannity spouts nonsense about Sarah Palin being treated worse in the media than Hillary. (Because conservative women are apparently the victims of a massive left-wing mysogynist [...]

Add Ed Schultz and Randi Rhodes to the list who hated on Hillary, they screamed out a thousand times
“do the math”, she can’t win.

You can’t deny that sexism isn’t taken seriously as
racism,yesterday, and today.

Spot on. As long as women allow themselves to be divided on the issue of pro life/pro-choice, they stop themselves from pushing the equal pay, rights and end to violence agenda that you discuss.

I have said over and over, there is no feminist movement. There are some internet groups sprouting up, but I continually stay disgusted that those (primarily on FoxNews) who keep asking, “Where ARE the women’s groups?” who think N.O.W. is the spokesperson for all women. That is a joke! N.O.W. has NEVER spoken for me – even in the 80′s at the height of their membership. N.O.W. is about two issues – abortion rights and gay/lesbian rights – BOTH of which I have supported for over 20 years. BUT, neither of those things protect women from the human indignities suffered by Hillary and Sarah in ’08. In fact N.O.W. contributed to women’s indignities by endorsing B0!

The success of these two issues will not put a nickle more in our paychecks! Women do not get promoted to top executive positions at major corporations because of abortion or lesbian rights.

N.O.W., NARAL, and others need to continue their work in these areas, but we must have groups separate from these to gain the rights I list above plus others that fall into the human rights category. These two issues are too divisive to chain ourselves to for basic human rights we are STILL fighting for. I understand that gay/lesbian rights are also human rights, and I agree. But the basic issues that we most need as women can be supported by both liberals and conservatives. This is the only way we will achieve equal pay for equal work, promotions to executive positions, participate in the boardrooms of Corporate America, and elect women as POTUS.

The Civil Rights movement would not allow these and other subtexts in that movement because they too were very divided about them. I understand there are those that want to have these issues front and center of women’s rights, but this is not just a woman’s issue. Abortion and gay/lesbian rights cannot continue to be the face of what we must focus on like a laser for just women.

Hannity really said that Hillary Clinton would never be treated like Sarah Palin???

I don’t know what to with the list you have come up with. On the one hand, it deserves to remembered for all time to show what it took to bring down a woman who STILL received more delegates from the primaries than Barack Obama, even when Florida and Michigan were not counted.

On the other hand, I kind of wish it could be burned and forgotten it is so outlandish. You can add Michael Moore to your list as well.

Uppity I have to disagree with you on one thing. Abortion is not settled. Why do i say this? Becaue no where in the constitution does it give SCOTUS the right to make laws the legislative branch does that. And for the most part the average woman understands that which is why they are so frighen of the appointment of too many conservative judges being placeon the court who might overturn Roe v Wade. This is one the main reason Democratic women put up with crap they do from their party, it’s rope democrats keep them tied with, because everyone knows that If abortion was put up for a vote in most states, it wouldn’t pass. The majority of Americans are prolife and uncomfortable with it. Personall I would keep abortion legal, although i won’t pay for it, but even though I have relgious beliefs I believe God made us seicent creatures capable of make decisions for ourselves though he may not always approve and to top it off I get sick of seeing stories like the one that happened so reently in SC of a mother who had drug problems regaining custody of her daughter from the father and then proceeds to go out and sell her 5 year old daughter for sex, she’s dead now because the pediphile her mother solde her to killed her. People like that should not be parents ever. And it would been so much better had her mother aborted her, instead of doing what she did. It’s not just about a womans right choose, it’s about child right to grow up with parents who love them, and want to take care of them and to be spared the pleague and a selfish parent. I appalud women who know they are too selfish to be parents. If you do not have the ability to put the best interest of another being above you won then you should not be a parent, and i will support any measure that keeps you from being one.

Dick Morris went to Kenya in ’06–07 with The Obama to help him write speeches for his misogynist Genocidal Couzin Luo tribesman and current presidnet ODINGA! Obama helped his couzin slumlandlord billionaire Odinga with ads, posters, campaign speeches and hundreds of thousands of Dollars from American Taxpayers!

Then Odigna’s gangs raped and pilllatged and burned Christian Churches. Result of Obama’s help: 400,000 homeless, 30,000 dead and thousands women and young girls raped!

Does anyone care? BBC and CBC did report on it and commented why did an American Senator as young and inexperienced as Barack be allowed to campaign in a SOVEREIGN country?! The then prime minister (now co-pres) had vocipherously complained!!!!

Odinga had signed for special agreements with SHARIA LAW to be enacted in Kenya! and Obama agreed in helping him campaign!!!

“As American women, until liberal women stop insisting that pro-life women accept and become pro-choice and conservative women stop insisting on all people being charasmatic, born-again Christians who are always pro-life, we will stay divided 50%-50%.”
I vote against my enemies. I intend to stay divided from my enemies, and any person, male or female who works against my rights is my enemy. This is not negotiable.

Ani,
Spot on. It is the faux outrage by Hannity that drives me crazy. If he was simply intellectually consistent I would have far more respect. Instead, he checks the team jersey before deciding whether or not to be outraged. Well done.

I agree on Greta Van S. She was even-handed and balanced with both Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin. She treated and treats her interview subjects with respect.

What a concept!

No pass from me either, Uppity. Galt’s right–the Republicans and Dems are more alike than different, “flip sides of the same tarnished coin.”

The 2008 primary season proved that to me.

Thanks for the unpleasant reminder, Ani. Sarah Palin got and continues to taste what Hillary Clinton has endured since the 90s. The true obscenity was when the Dems savagely turned on one of their own, a woman who worked tirelessly in their behalf.

So neither the Dems nor the Republicans get a pass.

I’ll go third party, even if my vote is a throw away.

Eldear Jhane, you’re right. The Vogue article was a great read, one of the best and most balanced pieces I’ve read on HRC.

And she deserves it. She is a star in her own right, and it’s about time she received some decent press. Her trip to Africa was completely ignored [other than her angry response to that student's question]. But clearly, her interaction with people and the way they feel about her is inspiring. She’s a wonderful representative for this country.

Big problem with Hannity … he repeatedly “reports” fragments of news stories and slants/spins to back up his beliefs. And yes, his “interviewing” technique is just not there. Every question he asks is embedded with “the approved conservative philosophy” and he waits for his guest to echo what he said. Even when Colmes was with him, they both were spinning away. Now I see Colmes doing it once in awhile on O’Reilly’s show. He can’t seem to break out of the liberal view, just as Hannity is mired in the conservative view.
Fox needs to realize their ratings soared in the last year because so many UN-conservatives switched to Fox channel after throwing up for months over the “news” coverage on the “United Obama Networks.” Fox needs to acknowledge their audience is now coming from some unexpected places. Most of the time, O’Reilly seems to do a decent job, although he goes off the rail once in awhile. Van Susteren can be a voice of reason.
But the rover boys — Hannity and Colmes — are knee-jerkers, from their opposite end of the spectrum. I’m willing to allow them points for “entertainment/acting” but if I want to know more facts about a story, I never take what either man says as “the truth.”
SUPER GALT, I’ve been dreaming about that Hillary/Sarah ticket for a long time now. Hillary and Sarah are too good to be used to degrade each other (and isn’t that a typical male tactic used in the workplace so often?) Hillary/Sarah 2012? Greta would grin with glee … “the boys” would huff and puff … Dick Morris would have apoplexy … and it would be a you bet’cha good thing for the country. Go ladies! Don’t let these “boys” divide you and silence you in the process. Go get ‘em!
