Men wield this thing called “Common Sense”.
Now the election's over can we dispense with this revisionist nonsense? Fiorina was reviled by HP's old guard (including a member of the founding family) as well as the rank and file and she oversaw some historically disastrous moves. HP still has not recovered.
There is a reason women were not allowed to vote. That reason has not changed.
Wall Street Journal had an article where they reported that about 80% of the layoffs since 2008 have been men.
Men are being absolutely economically hammered in this great Recession. Furthermore, most of the jobs being created are primarily directed at women including a majority of the government jobs.
When Democrats like Robert Reich make statements that any shovel ready jobs created should NOT go to white males, why would any white male vote for the Democrat Party??
Now, now. Women can be stupid as can men. At least 49% of us voted Republican this time. And what of Marco Rubio? I thought he’d get more women votes based on looks alone, maybe they counted the transgendered as female who I am sure voted Crist!
And a lot of liberal zombie women vote using this thing called "Emotion".
It is very hard to morally support female suffrage when you look at the outcome.
Face reality. The woman voting block will slow our progress every time. They are still the number one block that votes against us.
As a female, your tone almost sounds like you want me to vote against republicans/conservatives just to prove your point. Maybe not telling women they “slow your progress” and that they shouldn’t be able to vote might go a long way toward getting their vote. Face that reality.
Repeal the 19th Amendment
Women generally vote for security, men for freedom.
That’s why women weren’t allowed to vote. Freedom is no longer as important at the voting booth as it used to be.
Facts are facts. If it were the men, we’d be saying the same thing.
And we are supposed to be thrilled with the fact that women on the balance were a vote for more communism? Please.
Look, we have enough problems already. The fact that women consistantly voted for more socialism, more government, more spending is a serious issue.
Shift this from 49 to 51, and it is a sea change. Why aren’t you ladies as angry as the rest of us at your fellow ladies?
Here’s a simple test;
A small boy is climbing a tree in the backyard.
Someone calls out “Get down right now before you fall and hurt yourself”. Someone else yells out “hey do you see that branch righ above you’re head, do you think you can climb up that high?”
Which person made each statement, mom or dad?
Depends. I was the girl in the tree.
Exactly. Fight for those two percentage points instead of telling women they shouldn’t vote and you’ve got your sea change. A lot of woman are put off by some of the rhetoric you seem to be using. A lot like me grew up listening to that rhetoric and yet were able to put it aside and embrace true conservative values, not the disenfranchisement of over half the population. Women got the vote, what 1920? Can’t blame my gender for Woodrow Wilson et al if you want to talk about usurping freedom.
Depends on what?
Depends on who your mom and dad are. I know just as many moms as dads that would encourage the kid to climb the tree higher.
