They want their free contraceptives and Obama money.

    Making this the wild wild west again, and the land of frontier justice isn't the solution either, and times are tough my friend and we all have to cooperate to survive. Maybe we are all wusses, and a gun will not change that, no matter how scared you are of getting an A$$ whuppin'.

    Kids make mistakes, so do adults but it's a learning experience, not a time to cave to your worst fears. I mean it's that the best you can do is kill KIDS that scare you?

    "Wild wild west", "frontier justice", "kill KIDS that scare you"? Dude, you're the only one hear playing to and caving to fears here. But again, that's another thread.

    Remember Democrat San Diego mayor Bob Filner, the guy accused of his own personal war on numerous women? Of course not, when a prominent Democrat does it we just hear the crickets chirping. Even his former colleague Nancy Pelosi said move along, nothing to see here. Well, time for an update... apparently he likes his female employees to come to work commando...

    Quote:

    San Diego Mayor Bob Filner’s former communications director, Irene McCormack Jackson, has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the mayor, she and her attorney, Gloria Allred, said at a news conference Monday.

    “I am coming forward today to lay the blame at the feet of the person responsible, Mayor Bob Filner,” McCormack Jackson said after detailing what she described as the mayor's harassment of her. “He is not fit to be mayor of our great city. He is not fit to hold any public office.”

    McCormack Jackson is the first woman to come forward publicly to accuse Filner; in recent weeks he has faced anonymous allegations that he harassed “numerous” women. Allred said that Filner had asked McCormack Jackson to “work without her panties on,” placed her in a headlock and told her that he wanted to consummate their relationship, among other incidents of alleged harassment.

    Women were viewed by Mayor Filner as sexual objects or stupid idiots,” said McCormack Jackson, a former reporter who resigned from her position as communications director in June. “His behavior made me feel ashamed, frightened and violated.”

    “For some of what we stated, there were witnesses,” added Allred, who called on Filner to resign.

    But no one in the Democratic Party is pressing him to resign because this is how it is with the left - it does not matter how Democrats treat people in real life as long as they vote for the right policies.

    San Diego mayor sued by former aide charging sexual harassment - DailyBulletin.com
    Quote:

    Calls for Filner's resignation began on July 11, when former San Diego city councilwoman and fellow Democrat Donna Frye joined two attorneys in leveling allegations... In recent days, a number of prominent local Democrats have publicly urged Filner to quit, including San Diego-area U.S. Representatives Susan Davis and Scott Peters and San Diego City Council President Todd Gloria.

    Filner's top two aides also have resigned since the scandal emerged.

    Locals yes, but what prominent Democrats, like those who served with him Congress are pressuring him to quit? Barbara Boxer suggested he 'consider' resigning but where is the national outrage that would follow if he were a Republican?

    Dude, a reference to the "Democratic Party" is to the national organization, not the local county chapter. It isn't our side moving the goalpost here, if it were a Republican the calls would be loud and clear and on every network. But thanks for demonstrating once again you're more interested in trying to discredit me than having an honest discussion on a serious issue.

    Viva Carlos Danger!

    Future NYC mayor Anthony Weiner has had more of his exploits revealed. Whether pre or post-Weinergate is unclear, but yes I know, it's a local issue and he votes right so nothing to see here.

    I believe a marriage is worth trying to save in most cases but I think Huma obviously has an uphill battle with this guy. My comment extends to liberal women in general. Still waiting on them at large to demand Filner's head as opposed to allowing him to speak at their forums, and what happens with Weiner the second time around remains to be seen.

    At least one significant player has told Carlos Danger what to do with his wiener, the NY Times.

    We'll see if the day leads anyone else to come to Huma's side for wretched treatment her husband has given her and the embarrassment he put her through, again.

    Except for one small detail, the GOP war on women is manufactured BS, while you currently have the mayor of the eighth largest city in the country, and two running for office in NYC that wage a war on women in actual practice while you refuse to condemn them. Can you say hypocrite?

    So far here's the takeaway from the arguments from you and the lefties, apparently you think most women are stupid. They either want to be with patriarchal males who want to keep them barefoot and pregnant (and quiet) or jacka$$es and perverts who treat them like dirt. Where do you fall?
