They use government as a coersive tool with a one way ratchet that always elevates womens desires over that of mens individual rights. <br /><br />Thats why we see women demanding subsidized abortions and day care and contraception, now that some women are in power. More wealth to women from the rest of us, because they demand it. Nevermind that men never had those considerations when they were the primary supporters of the family. Women are to be catered to so they can have it all, paid for by the rest of us. <br /><br />It's why Sarah Palin is so popular; she actually articulates limits to the Will to Power and the primacy of Individual Rights over Government Control and coersion. <br /><br />Too many women confuse "leadership" with "making men do what the women want them to do" as if they were running a household. <br /><br />People with that sort of attitude about their fellow citizens have no business being in positions of power. That men do it merely speaks to the need to remove THEM from office, not to elect women like that to office to make things "fair".SGT Tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184808889760136366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-16948955032221312482012-05-07T10:40:14.796-05:002012-05-07T10:40:14.796-05:00So why are woman so disproportionately unrepresent...<i>So why are woman so disproportionately unrepresented in Congress ...?<br /><br /></i>Gerrymandering.<br /><br />Gerry Ferraro Mandering.MadisonManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01212179466758420208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-27137605733652270092012-05-07T10:39:34.526-05:002012-05-07T10:39:34.526-05:00Actually, most feminists run on this sort of ratio...Actually, most feminists run on this sort of rationale.edutcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15033144261502435196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-15809839921253711752012-05-07T10:22:02.562-05:002012-05-07T10:22:02.562-05:00Lil' Falk!<a href="http://youtu.be/HER1RxputAw?t=36s" rel="nofollow">Lil' Falk!</a>Known Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15029003649395214104noreply@blogger.com
