Whenever I see a GOPer on camera, House OR Senate,

I automatically think “he/she would look great in orange.” (To match their “dear leader’s” face!)

Not NEARLY long enough.

My response to your subject line would be "Well that's just TOO DAMN BAD."

TOO DAMN BAD.

This isn't the 50s and we aren't living "Mad Men."

Times have changed. We're in a new era - where women deserve to be believed when they have stories of battery, abuse, degradation, molestation, and other assorted cruelty to tell. The "just lie back and enjoy it" days are OVER! Unless, of course, we start turning that around on the offending men. Upset about this, dude? Don't like it that I blew the whistle on you and you lost your gig? Well, honey, lie back and enjoy it, then. That's what you predatory misogynistic bullying men/bosses/priests/ministers/counselors/Bible-thumpers have always told us women. Here - now YOU have some!

I've always been kinda fond of the "taste of their own medicine. See how they like it" approach, in cases like these.

Hi backtoblue!

Good that you're stepping up here! This is pretty safe, and there are so many kindred spirits here that perhaps you won't feel as isolated after awhile.

Glad you posted this! And Happy Valentine's Day back atcha!

Totally. She made a career traveling all over everywhere making public appearances

and speeches to spread her message that women should stay home and not have careers.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
