Mary Anne Marsh: Demonizing women should NOT be a winning political strategy

As the old saying goes “Once is a mistake. Twice is a pattern. Three times is a habit.” There seems to be a habit of demonizing women in politics as they become more powerful. What starts as a whisper campaign becomes a hurricane of criticism that is designed to defeat them by demonizing them

She should be forced to list this article as an in-kind contribution to the Kamala Harris campaign, since we all know that was the whole point to writing it.

Ah, the old stealth endorsement tactic huh. Clever, she mentions Hillary, Pelosi, & Lizzie Warren, but remained silent with respect to Kamala Harris. That's so tricky I failed to even connect the dots, until you exposed the dots. 8>)

You mean like against Sarah Palin?

No, back when there were still some real reporters who started pestering Geraldine Ferraro with all the questions they'd normally ask a white male when introduced as the VP running mate of a major party.

She got flustered, and blurted out something along lines of "Why are you doing this to me? I'm on your side!"

BLUF

Have you ever watched how group of women establish the pecking order, in private, when there is a new female hire?

From personal history as a 5-year old: “Mommy, is that the Bitch you have been talking about?”

If you move into new world (city, neighborhood, school district, job) you have to adapt. It has been that way since Ur was built.

What this woman is complaining about is she isn’t receiving special treatment because of …. And, her demands based on political correctness aren’t being immediately fulfilled. She doesn’t realize that in all competitive environments respect and privileges are earned not surrendered because of some law/policy.

It’s been obvious, from the propaganda stories about her, since about 2 weeks after Hillary lost, that Harris was already at that time anointed the “next Obama”.

Whacking a straw man (the straw man being that my objection to Marxists politicians is their race and or gender) should also NOT be a strategy that works.

My goodness...angry sentiments there.

What would Kathy Griffin, Joy Behar, Alec Baldwin, Robert Deniro, Ashley Judd, Madonna and Maxine Waters think of such "hate speech?"/s

I take it these propaganda stories about Kamala were written by Marsh? Personally, I've never heard of this woman before, or she was so insignificant to me that I failed to pay attention to what she had to say.

But I have heard this claim before, but I really don't pay much attention to that claim either. But nothing would surprise me anymore either. This nation is not too populated with intelligent people, thanks to our failed educational system that is more focused on teaching about homosexuality and sexual promiscuity then teaching what they should be teaching.

If a person of either gender can not take the heat, they should get out of the kitchen.

Women claim they want “equality”, well sweetie, being criticized is all part of politics (rightly or wrongly). It has been going on since the Ides of March and Caesar took one in the back.

“And Nancy Reagan was constantly criticized also”
And, by feminists, for lame girly-bitchy things like getting all new china for the White House (all paid for by private donors). I clearly remember “Ms Magazine” shredding Nancy for the china.

“”I get so sick of that bull dyke every Monday morning that I could just PUKE.””

Well, then I’m more fortunate than I thought as I have never seen her in the mornings and just saw her for the first time in a very long time a couple of weeks ago on some show. She’s bleached her hair, right?

Why is it so difficult for these “women” to understand that we dislike intensely OBNOXIOUS, overbearing women, and they’re all obnoxious and overbearing! Why do demon-rat “women” have to come off like shrews - angry all the time? Look at Elizabeth Warren - those wrinkles on her forehead are PERMANENT - she is one angry individual and I don’t think it’s OUR FAULT! Not one thing about them is graceful or feminine.

Here’s a NYT article criticizing Nancy Reagan for her china and everything else about her.

Demonizing Americans should NOT be a winning political strategy either, knucklehead. And do something about that Justin Bieber haircut. Geez.

As opposed to men, like Donald Trump, Brett JavllKaanaugh, Clarence Thomas, or Robert Bork. Heaven knows they were treated with utmost respect.

Most men find this whole "women as victim" debate rather tiresome.

Claiming victim status is never a position of strength.

Women need to assume equal rights, not demand them. If they are demanding them, it means they don't think they have them and so they have already assumed their inferior status in society.

Not a position of strength and not a position that will command respect.
