Michele Bachmann on Fallon's show....
Advertisements [?]
I'm a bit disgusted by how lightly the issue of her on the show is being taken. Don't get me wrong from the left are saying it was off but in a very off handed way. I'm not getting major sincerity from their dislike of Fallon's actions. Now I find Bachmann to be a liar and definitely someone who is a racist and makes no apologies for her outrageous comments. However I know for a fact that if the same action was done against HRC or any woman on the D side there would be uproar on this site for days on end. I also recognize this is not an R site.

But I'm a bit appalled by the sexism and disrespect that was exhibited on the show was actually praised and/or, shockingly enough for me, found amusing to people on the left. I was truly insulted and I really dislike that woman. But it just goes to show the lack of respect women in general have --- it would seem political ideology indirectly permits sexist actions. Says a lot about the dehumanization of people---particularly by people who call themselves Liberals.
