What have Women lost??

I read this article yesterday from Tech Station. It seems to counteract Maureen Dowd's article and provide some insight into how the Women's movement has changed things and also how Men have lost out.

The main point being that in the sexual revolutions changes Men lost the ability to have good families and be part of a productive society that raises healthy children that allows them to be healthy sane people.

And women have lost the right to have children in wedlock without first giving up the goodies before marriage so to speak-or never getting married. In the meantime it's true that women have gained better career experiences and more autonomy and respect.

It's certainly true that women have lost a great deal, but the article seems to put Men squarely at the front of the architecture for society. I just don't feel this is true.
It is true that women who are smart are not considered as attractive to men who are insecure and feel threatened by them. I know this from my own experiences in the classroom, dating room, and work world. There are too many men who see only MEN as the ones who can tell them things, give advice, or truly run things. There are also a lot of women who feel this way.

It is certainly true that Women are petty about Men and tend to give up more important things in the rush for a good man, except for Lesbians who seem content to be annoyed by the rest of us. Many women will trade in a good friendship for a date or put down a female simply to get themselves ahead... and by the way-MEN BANK ON THIS BEHAVIOR.

It allows Men to maintain control of society. The Female Heterosexual's obsession with getting a good man has allowed them to loose the right to have sex in marriage, to loose good jobs, to loose power in the government, and to end up on their own more often when raising kids.

Yes, men need to take responsiblity for their children, they also need to take responsibility for their behavior and not sleep around like silly sluts. The option to be a Hugh Hefner type is very desireable-except that it leads to depression, lack of money, and well watch the reality show on E! sometime documenting his life-it doesn't lead to a good life, not really. One that might satisfy for 10 years or so..but by 15 leaves little.

I constantly hear Women talk about how they don't need a man to raise a child and they are right. But, the children need their fathers and any career women who wants to have kids and a great career that is satisfying-NEEDS A HUSBAND. The institution of marriage is good for relieving stress and allowing people to live productive lives.

And if Women are so good at raising kids and be super mommy's why do we let Men and society allow us to be so much less? I think it's because a lot of women are not interested in working hard. REALLY. I think they are lazy, they don't want to work hard at having a good marriage, raising kids, and a career. They don't want the responsibility of war or taxes on their heads. And really, so many women have been taught to be submissive or cut off at the knees too many times to keep trying. How can you blame them?

But as Women strive to survive and be productive, we must keep trying, keep ignoring the buffoons who grab your butt, the codgers who hate getting good solid advice from a female or the lazy vindictive women who seek to undermine them.

And I need to say-there are a good number of Men out there who want and respect smart, hardworking women. They love them for it, maybe their own Mom was that way-maybe she wasn't and they needed her to be more that way. Because you see as the number of single Mom's has grown so has the number of Men raised by them who have come to respect that a women can be strong and do so much more than society credits them for beyond making cookies and changing diapers. I know-I've dated them and some of my best male bosses were those kinds of men.

It's a sad way to gain equality for Women, but it is one upside to the Hugh Hefner effect of the Sexual revolution. So maybe it does come back to men, but I think women need to take responsibilty for themselves-you can't be made into a cupcake-but you can let someone make you into one. You can save yourself for marriage and the right relationship to have kids. That's the benefit of living in the U.S. and I for one intend to use it!

CNN no le gusta Cheney.

http://www.drudgereport.com/flash3cnc.htm

Matt Drudge posted an article today noting that during VP Dick Cheney's speech yesterday on the CNN broadcast-an X flashed over his face as he was speaking-twice.
I don't know if it was incompetence or a devilish accident. But, I think they are one and the same-only an incompetent and mal-contented person or group of people would let a black X flash directly over the Vice President's face during a speech.
Really, whether it was personal to Cheney or not-I think the message is clear-CNN is having problems that are affecting the way they do business. And the fact is-it is their job to clearly air their chosen broadcasts both in sound, visibility and content. At least if they want to keep reporting the 'news'.

1960's Democrats

In a recent conversation with a friend, I discussed the oddity of the Liberal base these days. They believe it's okay to classify people by race and class. They deny that the war in Iraq is obviously different from Vietnam. And most importantly, they are hateful. I mean they are really hate filled and mean these days.

I don't understand how the party once filled with love and tolerance, hippy convictions allegiances to tents and helping your fellow man-have just gone. The Democratic party today seems to be filled with obviously power driven (Hillary Clinton types.) There is no place for the more moderate Joe Lieberman's who support the war, family values and are only moderately in favor of spending for the government. Their party does not embrace them the way John McCain for all he the furor he causes-is still respected. I think this became obvious when Gore backstabbed Liberman who had once been his running mate during the last presidential cycle by endorsing Dean behind his back.

Anyways, the Democratic party today endorses anger and hate. They seek to raise a frenzy of hysteria through anti-war protests like the one here in DC a few months ago. And the one coming up in the next week with Cindy Sheehan. These protests are filled with foul mouthed and hurtful signs. Pictures and signs saying 'f---- the war' and the www.911truth.org website sign that proudly goes through a series of arguments that say the President knew about 9/11 and let it happen-so he could invade Iraq and Afghanistan???? If you don't believe me-check out Michelle Malkin's new book. It has plenty of pics that would show you this material. Or simply hit the next anti-war protest.

You'll find the new Nazi skin head outpost, where anti-semitic hate is acceptable along with the term Neo-Con meaning not a new type of conservative-but someone who likes Jews and is manipulated by them into believing the war inIraq is good. This group of skinheads follows the Cindy Sheehan club around the country basking in the chance to express their hatred of Jews and other humans freely. The pictures and actions of these people when shown to an audience move them to tears and crying that is hard to ignore. Imagine if your child were in the military and your neighbor were putting up effigies of soldiers with signs saying 'Bush Lied, People Died'. It's certainly not the action of caring and considerate-peace loving people.

And scarely enough the Democratic party along with Fenton Communications values the chance to gather bodies and energy for their work. They don't care about the dangerous, racist anger that these people harbor for the world at large. The irony is that the Democractic party was once the party of the Civil Rights movement for Women and Minorities.

The most recent example was of Michael Steele being pelted with cookies as he made his senatorial campaign speeches in Maryland. Tell this story to a Democrat and they will laugh-tell them it's racist and they will ignore it. Why? They are ignorant, they really believe no smart Black person would choose the Republican party. The party of Lincoln, they still think it's 1969 and Jesse Helms still calls HIV a gay disease-both of which have changed.

This behavior on the part of the Democrats is blatantly racist and unfair. They would rather limit minorities and women to their limited ideas of freedom and equality than loose votes. It means they really do not believe in freedom for all and equality. In an equal country where people are truly free, they can choose whatever political party they want without racists telling them what political party they can vote with or support.

The problem is-that they don't get it! We are living in a Post Modern Society. The 1960's are over. The fight to integrate acceptance and tolerance into the U.S. civil society has been won. Accepting others, allowing women to strut their stuff, and opening the doors to minorities is part of being an educated person living today.

There will always be bigots, liars, and disgusting chauvinistic men (GUESS WHAT THEY ARE IN BOTH PARTIES and some don't even vote!), and above all racists. It is the duty of a responsible educated person to combate these behaviors-not encourage them for political gain.

But, the Democratic party in all it's Upper crust snobbery and desire to create and control a poor undernourished herd-doesn't see these facts. And they don't see how they themselves are the racists, the bigots, and the liars these days.

If you don't believe me, examine Howard Dean telling Fox News saying against the nasty protestors who threw oreo's at Michael Steele. He was on the channel the day after it happened and again last week. He said nothing the first time and when asked about it again, he told them that it was questionable-implying that it was a lie. Check it out for yourself. Don't believe me. www.foxnews.com He had a great chance to denounce these people, but he said nothing because he wants to encourage and support them. He thinks their behavior was acceptable-I guess free speech for racists is important to Howard Dean-but not denouncing them, he endorses them.

And this ladies and gentlemen is why the Democractic party is failing, they have turned nastier and nastier as they have been brought low. If they cannot let go of their race baiting, hate inspiring tendencies-they will be lost as the rest of civilized society moves forward. Or I could be wrong, people really may be so base and ignorant as to continue believing their lies. That's what Howard Dean wants to happen.

Additionally, the House vote on Friday for withdrawal from Iraq was voted down 403-3 with a few absences..it was a great move because it showed how little the Democrats stand behind their chants for ending the war. It showed that they only encourage anti war protests and their nastiness out of bitterness and anger over their own lack of power. Funny, it was a Democrat President who got us into Vietnam, and the Bosnia Herzogovina conflict. But, it was a Republican President who took those wars down to a minimum and withdrew troops. And it will be a Republican President that ends the operation in Iraq when it is time.
