Meghan McCain is busy raising a family? Who's the daddy?

"I see it everyday," McCain added. "Women aren't given the choice to have a family and a job… women have to juggle both of these things."

You wanted freedom baby and that is the price you pay. You are responsible for your own choices and the consequences of those choices.

Maria Shriver is nasty looking. She has that “skeletor” look.

Meghan McCain is kinda cute in an every day chubby girl kind of way but she’s annoying.

I dislike both of them. If these two are an example of women finding their “voice” then I hope they lose it again.

After all, the whole babble about women not having a voice is so insipid only a stupid person could believe it.

Shriver is probably better helping women find a good bar, based on her genetics.

I was amused by a tv stakeout at Shriver’s illegally parked SUV.......she sauntered up yapping on her cell phone and got in the vehicle.......she later had to apologize.

What God made different, Satan would blur,
and what God put together, Satan would separate.

Men and women are NOT interchangeable. They weren’t made that way, they weren’t intended to be. They were intended to come together and make “one flesh”, one whole person, complements to each other.

"We need flex hours, job sharing, telecommuting. That's a huge issue in this country."

Would the Kennedy scion have no problem if employers paid women less if they allow those benefits? I seriously doubt that so that effect would be, if imposed by the gov't, to disincentive companies from hiring women in the first place. Of course then Kennedy would scream bloody murder and we would need another bureaucracy to stamp out that discrimination.

No, they are both Liberals, forget that one is a RINO governor and the other is the original RINO Senator from Arizona.

Both are visible women who are not conservative, but related to RINOs.

One looks like the Crypt Keeper and the other is a chubby dimwit.

The GOP does not need these broads.

Sarah Palin seems to have found her voice, held a job and have a family. This is why the libs HATE her, she proves their ‘female=victim’ meme is a lie.

More importantly both living off the coat tails of their famous last names. Our own version of royalty without the pomp and circumstance.

Maybe they can make a playmate calender out of these libs:

“The conference features two full days of speakers and events that strive to inspire, empower, and educate women of all ages. Shriver and McCain are among the headlining speakers who also include three members of the “Good Morning America” family: Robin Roberts, Claire Shipman and Tory Johnson. Shriver said she was impressed by the diverse group of speakers, which also includes former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright, Paula Deen, Elizabeth Edwards, Senior Advisor to the President Valerie B. Jarrett, Caroline Kennedy, Alicia Keys, and many more. “

And what kind of voice is that? Vichy rich liberal? Liberals who can talk a lot but don't really walk the walk? I see two women who crave approval of the public.

Compare them with Sarah Palin who lived a fairly quiet life even as Governor of Alaska . . . she's walking the walk.

****”I see it everyday,” McCain added. “Women aren’t given the choice to have a family and a job… women have to juggle both of these things.”****

What kind of choice do you think men have lady? I worked regular and two part time jobs so my wife could stay home and raise our kids like they are supposed to be raised, by a mother.

Try juggling 3 jobs ,paying a mortgage ,buying two cars and clothes and food for 2 kids.

I am not complaining merely pointing out the fact that you and that scumbag Kennedy dont know what hard work is. You dont know jack sh!t about what a working family has to go through, you and your rich feminist Bull crap.

i understand that, there are those of us that are/were willing to work their butts off to provide a stable home for the kids.
i'd love to see them try my schedule for a month or two.

My daughter-in-law just became a partner in her law firm. They let her work 3 days a week and if something comes up with my 2 grandsons she works from home. She’s terrific at what she does and the firm appreciates it. I know this is probably the exception and not the rule but when she joined this law firm she let them know that the boys were a priority and she wouldn’t be a slave to her job. She said that she saw too many female lawyers whose kids barely knew them.

Women would get more respect if they would elect more leaders and problem solvers like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann. And fewer whiny airheads like Barbara Boxer and Patty Bin Murray.

of course, i’ll also probably never MEET any of them either, so that a slight impediment.
