I saw a letter to the editor in the Gazette Times, by Tina Empol, who sounded angry over Clinton's defeat in Oregon, also charging that the Democratic party has turned a blind eye to rampant sexism that has surfaced in Clinton's campaign against Obama.
In a way, it's sad that if there is even a hint of racism in campaigns, boy that is taboo. Sexism however is still a.o.k.
One of Rosa Parks most famous quotes is about just this subject. I can't remember it verbatim, but, she stated she was discriminated against far more as a woman than she ever was as a black.
Has the Democratic Party gone too far some wonder, by remaining silent on the subject? The sexism displayed against Clinton was most evident among younger Obama supporters. Seems strange. You'd think young liberals would be, well, not as sexist. You'd think so anyhow.
I'm not a Clinton supporter, I should say. I never liked her husband. Some think he did nothing. Well, not so fast. He took advantage of his position of power with an intern. He should have known better. But that wasn't all he did. There are numerous other accounts of his sexual exploits, including a troubling little matter in which a witness with tapes of his conduct with a coworker, was severely beaten by someone hired by Clinton, allegedly to get those tapes.
Clinton's behavior goes way beyond a Whitehouse affair.
I see another big evangelist guy got busted for soliciting sex from a 13 year old girl. Only it was a cop. Funny. Well it is funny. These preachers who get so many people puppy dog following them and they're just assholes, loving the power, saying what they need to get believed as god's ambassador, filling collection plates, living in mansions, doted over by crowds and doing their dark seedy deeds in the night, hoping not to get caught. When they do get caught, it's hysterical.
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.
