Why does it matter? They’re going to write the article they want regardless of the input.

“But why, specifically, is he good for American women, I wanted to know. Was there a woman who believes the Equal Rights Amendment is an old idea that’s no longer relevant?”

Maybe the endless “flame wars” on social media have shown conservatives the folly of ‘talking politics’ with liberals. They aren’t listening and they’re constantly trying to shove you into a neat little box that fits their preconceived notion-of-the-week.

When you are walking down the street, you should always carefully step over a stinking pile of dog excrement on the sidewalk...

“Notice that calls by Hesse, and many liberal commentators like her, for a national “conversation” don’t start on neutral ground.”

Anytime a liberal wants to have a “conversation” consider it an ambush, a guerrilla attack.

Why?.....Really?

Because conservative women don’t cast pearls before swine.

What is good for America is good for American women. Duh!

That would never occur to WaPo writer whose tunnel vision is focused on her pet feminist agenda.

Her moniker sounds like an intellectual porn star,

but her picture proves that it wouldn’t be a good career choice.

People hate the media because they lie, are unfair, dishonest, manipulative, agenda driven, hate America and anyone who disagrees with them. Is that simple enough to understand?

The proper response to any Enemedia question is “no comment”, when they ask why you don’t want to talk to them, the only response is:

“BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL SO FULL OF SHIT YOUR EYES ARE BROWN, THOSE OF YOU WITH BLUE EYES ARE JUST A QUART LOW”.

Because even LAZ has much better taste than “THAT THING”.

The last Washington Post reporter I talked with told me that it is more important to tell the larger truths (in that particular case the truth that guns are bad) than to get the facts of an individual story correct (and she admitted that her facts were wrong). She is one of their top journalists, so I completely dismiss their reporting.

This trope is endemic in the Modern Left. It is why we read about Christine Blasey Ford "speaking her truth."

If indeed Truth is not based on facts, then "Truth" is whatever The Narrative Shapers say it is.

By way of example, a basic understanding of human biology reveals that only females menstruate. But, once the Jack-booted Forces of Tolerance get involved, we have to put tampons in men's rooms because of "a greater truth."

Somehow, the Elites still don't understand that this contributes to President Trump's electoral strength.

I caught that as well. What kind of journalist does not even proof read her story? Oh...never mind

I don’t understand why any of our people talk to liberal reporters - print or other...

Casey is not smug. He is the conservative. Read again.

Yes, you are correct. I mistakenly thought that was the author's name. Petula Dvorak is the smug one. Alas, there is no editing feature here. Thanks for the correction. My apologies.
