Met any security moms lately? Every time that term is employed – the latest, favorite stereotype conjured by pollsters, pols and pundits – I try, based on media representations, to imagine just what a security mom looks like
UMMM Gore carried the Women vote by 11 points. Bush is winning it by 2. Note to Leftist Feminist "Journalists" that 13% are the security moms. But HEY We know you Leftist Femis cannot deal with the reality that your radical hard left agenda is NOT acccepted by most women.
Sorry but Bush is not winning the women vote 2 to 1, or 66-33.
He is winning the women's vote and Gore's 11 point advantage among women had vanished, but it is not a 2 to 1 margin or even close.
Where did you get that?
Lord, I tire of the asynaptic.
' Bush is winning it by 2'
I assume that he means by 2 points.....

Sorry Was not clear. Need to get off the 'puter for a while. By 2 POINTS not 2 to 1. So an 11 point Gore lead to a -2 defecit for Kerry is a 13 point swing.
Read it again, Hoss. The post said "winning by 2" (meaning percentage points), not "2 to 1".
"Scary terrorist." I think terrorism is scary. Never underestimate fanatics who want to kill Americans.
Yes, I read it wrong! Sorry and thanks for making it clear.
Just another example of how the liberal MSM tries to seperate Americans by either color, or class. They could easily have used the term "parents" or "moms and dads"...
and shame on Maureen for using such a supercilious frame of reference in her column when referring to the "scary" terrorists.
Just shows she doesn't get it. The single most tangible threat to our security and way of life, and she treats them as Halloween goblins. She wasn't standing close enough to the WTC on 11 September 2001.
Semper Fi
No friend, you were clear. I read it too fast and read it wrong. You were right and I was wrong. Kudos and thanks for being gracious in being right!
Keep the faith!
Hoss was my fave Bonanza character! ;-)
You are right and I was wrong! Sorry!
"Last week, facing a tougher recruitment climate – including a de facto draft of reservists and a rising rate of resistance to re-enlistment – the Army lowered its entrance standards for recruits."
Checking this out with my son (active-duty Army) ...but this is the first I've heard of the Army lowering it's entrance standards.
Anyone?
I never liked that term, 'soccer mom'. My husband and I drove my three to every sport and activity imaginable, and worked full days besides...
We were more interested in teaching our kids that "WE" didn't approve of certain behaviors or what they were seeing on TV, including the sexual misbehaviors and morally corrupt presentations of the former President.
Now, I am a 'security mom'. Since 9/11, I wonder if my children will LIVE thru more attacks, and mourn the loss of our forever-lost sense of safety and trust. W won't say the word 'crusade', but we all recognize that there is a crusade against US...my boys can fight for him. But not for sKerry.
Wonder who Hop Sing is voting for.
The term is McCarthyite and the righteous are unamused.
Hop Sing was one of the few in the west who wasn't afraid of Hoss! He would go after him with the meat cleaver on occasion! Haha!
Women, like all people, are ultimately responsible for their own safety.
As long as most of them would rather sit around watching reruns of "Sex in the City" instead of learning how to shoot a gun (or at least finding a guy who likes guns), they will never be "secure".
This "security mom" stuff is nothing less than yet another scam of political marketeers to get votes.
