I guess her affiliation and her fathers membership into that sex cult thing was all about raising women up and celebrating them. I guess the brand or tattoo, or whatever they got, was kind of like a diploma.

These same Feminazis stood silent as homofascists called Sarah Palin a B**** and a C*** and told rape jokes about her and her daughter on national tv.

The Left is not pro-woman. Just as they are not pro-black. Just cross them and find out how extreme their hate rhetoric is.

Agree on all points. The Establishment, Uniparty, Puppet Masters trying to prop up Haley, early, so she can challenge Pence. Pence may not be in lock step with the President, but I’d like to think that he’s learning some stuff by watching the man. One of which, is you don’t have to roll over every time to make everyone happy. And you certainly don’t have to appease the Left, for any reason.

Feminism was killed by the LGBT movement and Islam

I have always wondered why it was ‘sexism’ or ‘racism’ not to vote for a woman or a black when I would not have voted for anyone who proposed similar policies regardless of their sex or race.
I’d happily vote for Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, Herman Cain, or Dr. Ben Carson for president, and not because of their race.
I would also vote for Sarah Palin or less happily, Ann Coulter (she’s pretty erratic) for president.
But it is policies I vote for, not race or sex.

Six women mounted campaigns. Kamala Harris mounted Willie Brown. Who is still running?

Outside of NY, she will never be taken seriously because she has the voice of a 12 year old.

What Is The ‘Sex Cult’ That Kirsten Gillibrand’s Father Allegedly Lobbied For?

The NXIVM scandal has resurfaced after documents showed that the father of presidential candidate and Democratic New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand lobbied four months in 2004 for the group which has been described as a “sex cult,” according to a report.

The organization was founded as a “self-help” group before ceasing operations last year, after high-ranking members of the group were arrested on charges of sex trafficking and forced labor.

Big League Politics obtained court documents appearing to show that Gillibrand’s father, Doug Rutnik, worked for the organization for four months in 2004 at a monthly rate of $25,000. Fox News, The Washington Free Beacon and Slate all previously reported on Gillibrand’s father and his work. An unnamed source also reportedly told Big League Politics that Gillibrand once sat at an NXIVM table at a fundraising event for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Nobody seems to mention that she is white as a sheet! That triggers my KKK response. And offends me.

"They haven’t changed the word ‘sexism’ to ‘genderism’ yet?"

LoL, I was wondering why she didn't identify as a male during this run.... maybe she still would be in the race.

IIRC, Tina Rutnik did some work for her father during his tenure with NXIVM. Or am I mis-remembering?

Absolutely. I’m psyched about voting for GOOD women; the bigger the talent pool, the better the talent you can get. Our mantra should be, “ I don’t care what’s between your legs. I care what’s between your ears.”

So it is the Democrats that are sexist? She is a Democrat. She was running in a Democrat campaign. Polling there for had nothing to do with Republicans so this report would seem to indicate it thinks that the Democrat are sexist!

Her problem is “New York”

Being from New York is an automatic disqualification
