Senator Patty Murray & Ladies of Like-Mind, Your Spins Are Demeaning

My first response to Todd Akin’s “ladylike” comment was — you have got to be kidding!  Grown-up women in politics can’t grasp they are ladies as opposed to the guys being called gentleman or acting gentlemanly?  It’s got to be a slam?  It’s got to be demeaning?

This world, and especially politics & some politicians, have lost their common sense and comprehension skills, it would seem.  They blow up little stuff to such an extent that it is difficult to get excited or know when something actually major or inappropriate did take place.  And, instead of being upset with Akin, I’m upset with the childish cries of people such as Senator Patty Murray (D-Washington) who think the national party ought to scream that Akin is a bad boy and used the demeaning term “ladylike.”  How dare he?

I would like the Democrats to repudiate your comments, Senator Murray, because I find your remarks to be insulting and demeaning to women, who earn their votes, jobs and promotions without having to resort to stupid spins that have nothing to do with anything of importance.  It’s your behavior and reaction that makes women look bad, not some man saying some woman didn’t act as ladylike as she once had.

And, if Claire McCaskill is worried about the “ladylike” comment and having to rely upon spins to get votes — she isn’t the candidate of the past, who suggested she is person enough to stand strong for Missourians.  Instead, the citizens of Missouri would always have to wonder when she might get her little feelings hurt and have to focus her attention on getting others to repudiate whatever and make the big, bad man apologize and go away!

Murray & Ladies of Like-Mind, your willingness to spin is both demeaning and a suggestion that “some” politicians are simply too weak to do the tough job.  Are you suggesting Claire McCaskill is one of them?

  1. Congress was Never meant to be a Ballet. When formed, Congress Congress was set up so that Every Member had to fight for tax $’s. Now it’s a sleaze fest Paid for by US, and benefits None of US.
