" This has nothing to do with gender George. It's all about merit."
as it should be in a perfect world..but reality is not that simple.
as long as there is gender, there will be sexism. And it will be used as a weapon by both sides of a fight.

"I think it hilarious that a GOP president is playing the sexist card in order to get his nominee approved.
I think anyone honestly suprised by George's politics and policies with this nominee is equally comical.

Glass ceilings and pioneering is feminist PC-speak.
you are right in general, however, what would you call a woman that holds a position that had never had a woman hold previously? a pioneer? "Feminism" as it is today may be way off base, but there is certainly no doubt that sexism still exists. denying that is ...well...sexist?

Look. We are talking about a frickin SC nominee. No one on my side of this debate would suggest that JRB, Owen, Jones or Clement would be unqualified. The fact is that they are latching on to this in a pathetic attempt to pump up this nomination. It's pathetic.
