  1. I don't get it, Eddie. Are you saying that because women get raped there is a "war against" them? My God, man, people get murdered every day, too. Is there a "war on" ... whatever. There's a blah .. blah .. blah .. every day too. Is there a "war on" those? What do you expect for a response in articles like that?
    Is that what this is? Your desire for a response from the "right winger"? Then you can tear them down and act like you're 'holier-than-thou'? Well, if you want a response, I'll give you a response. But, if all I get in return is the usual 'holier-than-thour' attitude ... then forget it.

  2. Wait a sec... Does everyone else NOT see the picture? Because there was a picture there last night, and now it's gone. So... depending on what he's seeing, Anonymous' post may or may not actually make some sense.(Because if there's no picture, the my post REALLY doesn't make any sense.) Hang on...

    1. I did not see the picture. That was the basis of my comment. Nothing to link to except the time stamp, so ...

      (I see it now)

  3. Now, that I've seen the link. I still don't think there is a 'war on women'. That is a fear-mongering figment of your imagination, no different than the 'war on Christmas' that so many right wingers think is happening. Sure women get treated more harsh than men, but it isn't a 'war on women' but rather the establishment by man as the "power" over the woman. Which is very prevalent in many of the different cultures established in America. You can't discount the factor that 'man' usually will consider himself to be the dominant person in any relationship. And, he will seek out any confirmation that will support his thoughts. Thus bringing us to your other concern. Which is very real and very worrisome. That can only be caused by one thing and that is the lowering of the moral standards (you knew I'd say that :).
    To be corrected a distinct pro-active approach needs to be developed to reverse the trend we've seen over recent times. What that is I don't know. But I can say something needs to be done to reduce the violence against women. Leading that parade of crimes is rape. That is a very (if not the) most heinous crime against them, and it needs to stop.

    1. You don't know what the answer is? How about renewing the Violence Against Women Act, for a start, which trains law-enforcement on how to deal with these crimes & gives them resources to do so? (Re-authorized over Republican obstruction , I might add.) How about we stop talking about abortion like there's only ONE PERSON involved, conceding that a woman should NEVER be forced to bear the child of her rapist? (Something Republicans no longer support!) How about taking sexual harassment seriously instead of pretending Bill Clinton is the only person that ever committed it? How about changing the leadership culture in the Military so it doesn't protect rapists? Or the Church? Or COLLEGE FOOTBALL? God, Guns & Football - the trifecta of Conservative Culture in 'Murica - all caught covering up & enabling Rape recently.

      How about taking the statement: "You can't discount the factor that 'man' usually will consider himself to be the dominant person in any relationship. And, he will seek out any confirmation that will support his thoughts."

      And not accepting that merely because SOME MEN still feel that way, that makes it acceptable?! You know which men DON'T feel like that? LIBERAL men. PROGRESSIVE men. REAL man. REAL men who's ego's are not so weak that they need to marry a doormat in order to feel big. Men who know what "all people are equal" really means!

      The reason you can't see that there IS a war on women in this country, indeed this WORLD, is that you're a CONSERVATIVE. Naturally inclined to look at the way things have always been & accept them as unchangeable, always two generations behind the curve of social progress, having no idea just how out-of-date the attitude of MEN LIKE YOU have become. So convinced that CHANGING SOCIAL NORMS is some kind of "degradation of morals" that you FEAR those changes! THOSE CHANGES ARE WHAT ARE GOING TO FIX THINGS! Do you think is something new? Women have been treated like this since the dawn of time! And its time this CHANGED! And it's not going to CHANGE due to the efforts of those who FEAR CHANGE!

      The "War" exists because now there's actually a FIGHT going on now. A fight for women's equality STARTED by Feminists, Liberals & Progressives. Now that the Right has an opponent, they're standing up for the old social order that perpetrated these crimes in the first place! Sure, they'll call it "moral values" or some such nonsense, but reality is that they're whitewashing all the harm that the "old way" has done!

      And fine it's not a "war on WOMEN." It's a "War on WOMEN'S RIGHTS." That doesn't play as well rhetorically, so we drop a syllable. Plays better that way. That doesn't make it any less real.

      And I've said it before: The only evidence in the "War of Christmas" are numerous institutions (including FOX NEWS!) saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas." Which is at best being inclusive, at worst an attempt to secularize other holidays, turning them into a commercial exercise the way Christmas has been. That might not be "good," but commercialism, consumerism & corporatism are hardly "liberal," my friend. So if you're lamenting it, make sure you know who's REALLY at fault for it. No one is being prevented from celebrating Christmas. We had our tree last year. And lights. And presents. And while we didn't go ourselves, there weren't any Churches being shut down. So HOW are anyone's rights being violated again? Women, on the other hand, ARE being harmed physically, emotionally, politically & financially harmed by the policies being championed by the Right, in ways that are tangible, easily studied & well-documented. If you can't see that plain & simple reality, then I can't help you.

    2. "How about taking sexual harassment seriously instead of pretending Bill Clinton is the only person that ever committed it?" ... You mean by not laughing at those who whined about his conquests? You mean by actually having the legal system do something besides say: boys will be boys ... like so many democrats did during Clintons lifetime of cheating and womanizing? I'm sure every one of his conquests said "yes", so there is no rape or violence or any other illegal instance happening. But, it sure was good to have a 'role model' such as him in the highest office in the nation. I would hate to think the last 40 years of hearing about his sexual encounters was creating the democrats leading role model. Especially during the so called "war on women".
      But, you're right, only republicans commit rape or violence towards women. The democrats never do anything so horrible.

    3. "Naturally inclined to look at the way things have always been & accept them as unchangeable, always two generations behind the curve of social progress, having no idea just how out-of-date the attitude of MEN LIKE YOU have become." ... You mean I don't use the "class curve" to determine my morals from day to day, like you (and other democrats) do? Using the "class curve" sure shows the intelligence level of the entire class, and your ever-changing moral standards are lowering the standards in all of America. Good for you. You are accomplishing a great feat. Ruining America based on your ever-changing morals.

      "THOSE CHANGES ARE WHAT ARE GOING TO FIX THINGS! " ... What changes and what is going to get fixed? Hey, I don't mind that you liberals focus on allowing only CERTAIN sexual deviances while crying that other sexual deviances should NOT be allowed, I just think you should except that you are being hypocritical with those views. What happened to your "curve of social progress"? Oh, you're just not READY to allow other harmless sexual deviances. Your "curve of social progress" only goes SO FAR, huh?
