I think about Kate Michelman (sp?) the NARAL leader, a young Catholic wife in the 1960s abandoned by her husband with three young kids. She wasn’t even for abortion rights before that. Now look at all the evil she’s done. Good going, dude.
It’s when the men fall over that some bad women rise up.
I don’t think anyone on this thread is saying that FReeper women shouldn’t vote. I am sure we all vote. I understand the position to be, it would be better for election results in America if ALL women didn’t vote. You’d miss my vote, but you’d cancel out a lot of welfare voters, too, for a net gain of conservative votes. It’s an obvious truth, whether we like it or not.
Obviously, the statistics are different in the Middle East. Do the men there even vote in most countries? I don’t think so. So it is not fair to say we all want an Islamic Republic! We are just noting, accurately, that the country has gone downhill towards socialism since women started voting.
