"Suppose John McCain had been Joan McCain and Joan McCain had got captured, shot down and been a POW for eight years?" Steinem asked, suggesting the media would ask "'What did you do wrong to get captured? What terrible things did you do while you were there as a captive for eight years?" ...
Referring to his time in captivity, Steinem said, with bewilderment, "I mean, hello? This is supposed to be a qualification to be president? I don’t think so."
Some Comments :
I remember Steinem when she was making
alot of noise while I was raising six
kids. Where was her "humanity" when she
had an abortion in London. One mixed
up cookie (or is that Kookie) if you
ask me. She denigrated the role of woman
in society. She did not glorify it.
Gloria is a part of the "it takes man-bashing to prove you're really liberated" crowd that preaches swinging the pedulum too far the other way is owed them. It is illogical to overlook that reverse sexism is somehow not still sexism but if you point this out to them, you'll get more of the screaming banchee illogic. As a woman, I have never subscribed to this thinking and I hold them accountable for the damage they have caused our culture.
I am gratified to see Dee Dee Meyer's (ex Clinton press secretary) new book "Why Women Should Rule The World" get mixed reviews and on this same basis-- it's more of that reverse sexism crap as it's opening premise.
Mac is a hero not because he was shot out of the sky but as a result of his actions in a very, very long time after that. This shows personal fortitude. What character traits so far exhibited can Clinton show? First Lady duties can be exhausting and intimidating. First term senator regimens are also rigorous. Just ask Rocky Obama
