This is the same witch who wrote a 2008 blog hit piece about Sarah Palin, saying she looked like a porn star and calling her supporters white trash.

In 2008, after Sarah Palin was selected as the U.S. Republican party’s Vice-Presidential candidate, Mallick, among other things, labelled Palin as “white trash” and an “Alaskan hillbilly” and likened her to a “toned-down ... porn actress” in a column for the CBC.

An investigation by the CBC ombudsman found that “many of her most savage assertions lack a basis in fact”, and that her aspersions on the sexual inadequacy of Republican men “would easily be seen as, at best, puerile” if “applied to any other group”. The publisher of CBC news, John Cruickshank, apologized for publishing Mallick’s column, which he called “viciously personal, grossly hyperbolic and intensely partisan”

This is considered ‘civility’ by the lunatic left...

Heather Mallick says:

“I assume John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential partner in a fit of pique because the Republican money men refused to let him have the stuffed male shirt he really wanted. She added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn’t already have sewn up, the white trash vote, the demographic that sullies America’s name inside and outside its borders yet has such a curious appeal for the right.”

“Palin has a toned-down version of the porn actress look favoured by this decade’s woman, the overtreated hair, puffy lips and permanently alarmed expression. Bristol has what is known in Britain as the look of the teen mum, the “pramface.” Husband Todd looks like a roughneck; Track, heading off to Iraq, appears terrified. They claim to be family obsessed while being studiously terrible at parenting. What normal father would want Levi “I’m a ___kin’ redneck” Johnson prodding his daughter?”

Well, patriarchy in any form offends the sensibilities of liberals. Girls have the right to go on their slut walks and get free birth control and don’t want men to tell them what to do.

Society itself may be breaking down. Maybe in the next generation, the entire culture will be like inner-city “ghetto” culture. But according to liberal ideology, nothing can be done against some of these trends, because then you interfere with a woman’s body and all that. Not to mention we have to instill self-esteem and give equal rights to sexually confused trans-whatever peoples and all that.

Carried to the next level, nobody has a right to tell anyone what to do about anything.

The veneer of civilization is thin, and getting thinner.

She has a wedding or engagement ring? Is she married?

Of course, in this day and age, we have to ask, is she married to a man?

That reminds me - Tim Taylor once told his eldest son about the famous Femininist tract by Bette Friedan - “The Feminine Mistake”!

That’s some of the nastiest vitriol I’ve ever read. I consider it proof that radical feminism rots the soul.

I think the elimination of patriarchy will cause, and is causing, the breakdown of our technological society.

Guys got married in order to have regular access to sex, and to have children (THEIR children, not raising somebody else's). If they can get laid without marriage, then that's less incentive to marry. If marriage turns into financial and emotional Russian Roulette, then that's less incentive. Guys mainly work at the the stressful, dangerous, necessary jobs because they want to make enough money to attract a good woman and support a family. Take away the responsibilities of marriage and fatherhood, and guys will prefer continuing to live at home, and work at low-demand jobs that pay just enough to pay for their amusements.

Civilization stays up only as long as the men desire to hold it up. If they decide to pull an "Atlas Shrugged", then civilized society WILL FALL.

well maybe you already knew about the guy she was ref. to - Paul Gomille - that he really was suspended from the school FOR his remarks. Also it’s funny that his principal’s last name is “Modeste.” :) When I first read this (your post) I didn’t know that. ... But you might say that he was not really suspended “FOR” his remarks; but I think that really is why.

That was at nationalpost.com


This morning (after reading this thread) I started thinking about burqas. I dress modestly, but I don’t take it to that extreme, of course; so was thinking about Muslims forcing their women to wear a covering on the face [um, that’s a hijab?]. I couldn’t. :)

In the Bible Rebekah put a veil on when she was about to meet Isaac for the first time; and Tamar covered herself w/ veil; Leah maybe wore a wedding veil (thus Jacob didn’t identify her as Leah until the next morning). Tamar and Rebekah weren’t forced to do this, so, that’s different.

For reasons of our (USA) security, it wouldn’t be a good idea for anyone to cover their faces all the time. “duh”. :)

[pardon my musings.]

Anyway I couldn’t -— I would feel de-humanized. So I guess I could be considered rebellious in that sense; but it’s such an extreme. . . . this is from the perspective of someone who was made to wear certain things from a young age; that might be an unusual / weird viewpoint, to you. ... in the “big city” seemingly most people can’t identify with that kind of strict family background.

Enough of that. Thought of sending Paul Gomille a fruit basket or something. Oh yeah, can’t afford a fruit basket right now. :) - somebody ought to show support, eh? Hm.

Or since I’m getting into bitter melons lately, a bitter melon basket! *sardonic snicker* AKA “Karela” etc.

obviously I don’t know how to post URLs the way it should be done. I deeply apologize.

Oops, forgot - there are two Tamars in the Bible - this is the Tamar who is associated with Judah, not the Tamar who is associated with Amnon.
