Women ruling



Watch out.





Some 500 women are walking through the streets of Vermont today with a little more confidence.

A roomful of mostly women heard from former White House press secretary Dee Dee Myers this morning in Burlington. She has written a book, Why Women Should Rule the World," and has concluded that the reason women should rule is the world would be a better place.



So if you look around your office today and see a few more women speaking up, that’s why.

It’s a title Myers admits is meant to be provocative. Don't worry. She’s not ready to exile men.

She sent the crowd away empowered with the fact that yes, women have something important to offer the business world and she got them thinking about the obstacles that have prevented them from sharing it.




She passed along a bit of advice for that moment in the meeting room that has happened to us all. You say something smart. Everybody ignores it. Three minutes later a man says the same thing and everybody loves the idea. Here’s what you do: You say, "I love the way you restated my idea, Richard. I think my idea, as restated by Richard, will work very well."



Myers, a Democrat who worked for President Clinton, even had a few good words to say for Republican Sarah Palin. A few bad words too, but none of them about her shoes, or her hair, or the choices she’s made for raising her children.

Dee Dee's speech was great; bummer that bubba missed it.
 
Bubba seems to hate you and eveyone else.
 
Wasn't Dee Dee Clinton's press secretary during his days molesting women in the White House? Gosh, I don't remember too many speeches about empowering women back then! What a phony!

Gosh, I don't remember too many speeches about empowering women back then! What a phony!"

And just when was it established that Clinton "molested" women in the White House, bubbakis?

Gee, bupkis from bubbakis. What are the odds.

Once again, little fella, the only "phony" here is you and as is your clueless-cretin custom, you're a factually-challenged, fundamentally-dishonest one at that.

Imagine that.

Monica Lewinsky never claimed to have been "molested" by Clinton and since she's the only one who's ever been linked to Clinton in any sexual sense, and that was only after counterfeit-kristin-cretin Ken Starr was allowed to exceed his Whitewater Brief, track down, intimidate, threaten to incarcerate and deprive Lewinsky of her Sixth Amendment right to counsel in connection to the bogus Paula Jones suit that was justifiably laughed out of Court.

Moreover, just what the hell that had to do with Whitewater - a matter in which no one named Clinton was ever implicated in -let alone convicted of any illegal or improper activity remains a mystery to anyone living on Planet Earth with even the most rudimentary understanding of the US Constitution as well as State and Federal Law and the workings of the US Criminal Justice System.

As for Myers, actually, no, she wasn't White House Press Secretary during Monica Mania having long since left the position, but hey, you've never let reality and the facts slow your psychotic spew before, bubbakis, it would be unreasonable to expect reason and factual evidence cloud your richard's-addled intellect now.

You're free to go.

"... If you happen to be an independent woman like Sarah Palin, or even an uneducated soutern woman objecting to being molested by Bill Clinton, you JUST DON'T QUALIFY for "sisterhood". Sorry. We hate you."

Gee, thanks, uneducated "nortern"
brain-dead, bigoted broad with bupkis.

That's back at ya.

Always a treasure, always a pleasure.
 
Going to sing I am woman hear me roar now Jiffy?
 
Nah, I leave that silly stuff to the lunatic-fringe likes of your ignorant anonymous ass, little fella, since that, postin' the names and addresses of other people while anonymously threatenin' their wives is clearly the extent of your act.

Always a pleasure.
 
Are we still hearing about "empowering women"?
Lets move on ladies.
 
You girls don't need to worry yourselves with 'empowerment'. It makes your forehead wrinkle up and you don't look as pretty.

Now run along to the store and get me something nice for dinner.
 
Gee, anonymous misogynists unite! You have nothing to lose but the ring through your schnoz.

Way to take a stand, little nameless-nitwit fella.

Keep the faith, kiddo! You'll experience the joys of puberty someday. Your voice will change. You'll shave.... eventually and people with names and 'nads won't be tellin' ya to cut the crap and grow a pair every 30 seconds.

On the downside, they'll kick ya outta the boy's choir and if ya ever get close enough to spew that slop to a woman of the non-inflatable persuasion, she'll rip your face off, show ya some alternative uses for car keys and drop ya like any and all memory of a mittwit romney presidential campaign, little nameless, faceless, nitwit fella.

On the bright side, if ya agree to slouch in the back row, they just might let ya back in the boy's choir again.

Say goodnight, greasy.
