When Spite Trumps Common Sense, A Resentful Clinton Supporter Is There

The six weeks since Cynthia Ruccia announced that sexism would force her to support John McCain in the general election haven't, as many had hoped, made her any more reasonable. Like many a Clintonista, Ruccia — the co-founder of Women For Fair Politics who appeared on Larry King Live last night (see clip above left) — is still spitting mad and not going to take it anymore: she's going to vote for John McCain! See, John promised her personally that he'll appoint lots of women to jobs in his Administration (you know, like how Bush appointed feminist leaders Christine Todd Whitman, Ann Veneman, Elaine Chao, Condoleezza Rice, Mary Peters and Margaret Spellings to his Cabinet) and that trumps the cunt thing, reproductive rights and other issues that Ruccia, a lifelong Democrat, holds dear. Because in the battle to combat sexism in the media, it's important to show that women have a voice that can be used to show that Clinton supporters are crazy, spiteful bitches who will sell out their own political ideals to nurse a grudge. Way to strike a blow for us ladies, Cynthia!

Meet The Women Who Will Doom Us To A McCain Presidency

Yesterday, I appealed to all that was good, right, feminist and holy among us to stop with the attacks on groups like NARAL on the basis of disappointment over Hillary Clinton's likely inability to garner the Democratic nomination. Many of you suggested that the Democratic Party would, once the disappointment ebbed, come together and support Obama against John McCain and his choice-hating, abstinence-educating, unequal-pay-giving minions because even a guy that calls you "sweetie" is preferable to one who calls you a "cunt." Well, meet the ladies who would love nothing more than to prove you wrong: Cynthia Ruccia and Kimberly Myers. More »

Latest by n/a: for everyone here crying that women's rights, abortion rights will be thrown out of the window if McCain became the president, relax. That's what was said when Bush got to office. Yes its weakened but not taken away. more »

NARAL's Endorsement Of Obama Is Neither Disrespectful Nor Disloyal

Here's a reminder of what the pro-choice movement is supposed to be fighting: the anti-choice movement. I put this picture up in case you, like a lot of women today, have forgotten that these people are the enemy, and John McCain is their candidate. Because from all the ugly backlash against NARAL Pro-Choice America's endorsement of Barack Obama yesterday, it seems like a lot of Clinton supporters have decided the enemy is Obama/NARAL and not people that are, you know, actually actively fighting to deny women the right to choose. But, hey, why bother tearing down the anti-choice movement, their leaders and the politicians that pander to them when we can just tear other pro-choice Democrats and organizations down? No one undermines women like other women, right? More »

Latest by n/a: Shame on the RACIST "feminists"! As a real feminist, former chapter president and national board member of NOW, I am gravely disappointed in the so-called feminist community that has taken the Clinton presidential campaign as license to engage in bashing more »
