Soviet women were out in the cities in WWII as snipers shooting Nazis, which is something the most butch feminist doesn’t have the guts to do. HOw many of these feminists are in the military killing terrorists.

Which is why we are not going ot break this deadlock on our stagnate economy and political dysfunction. Quite frankly I think we are just like Imperial China, as the Manchu Dynasty fell to pieces. I understand that not all politicians are saints (and I wouldn’t want them to be if they are going to end up fighting for my country’s interests), but now they are just pillaging everything.

I think that Cain is an honorable man who will do a decent job, but in my mind, only Palin could have accomplished real reform in Washington. I’m tired of saying that it’s a pity already, though. I’m sick for my kids’ future, and I’m always thinking it. Bob

The people in Washington need a full blown shock, maybe even the loss of America’s superpower status, in order to really want reform and be willing to cooperate.

"I fervently hope when a woman is elected, it's not a Democrat. I can't fathom a Pelosi or a Boxer or someone of that mentality as CIC."
