Vote for Women
February 8, 2016
HAS a national male figure ever stood before a group of men and told them there’s “a special place in hell” for those who vote for women candidates? Men, at least in America, have never stooped so low. I guess it was only a matter of time: We’ve gone from women’s suffrage to obligatory voting for women. Feminists (of which I was once one) are walking advertisements for misogyny. They were supposed to remove privileges based on sex. Instead they promote them. They openly brag of favoritism, discrimination and moral superiority. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Gloria Steinem have pulled out the knives in their efforts to bully women into voting for Billary Clinton. Steinem, former CIA operative, says women who vote for Bernie are just looking for boyfriends. (I thought women never do that.) Albright’s remark that women who vote for a man go to hell is reminiscent of a comment by Dr. Anna Shaw, President of the National American Women’s Suffrage Association, who was once quoted as saying there are “no men heaven.” The same charming modesty has run like a black, oil-slicked stream through the campaign for women’s suffrage and the campaign for a woman president.
How can politicians who openly brag of their prejudice against almost half of the population have any claim to national office at all?
“Hillary Clinton will always be there for you,” says Albright. Really? How so? Many young women, I would hope, are not drawn to Hillary. She is all too real. She is the embodiment of feminist principles: a ruthless workaholic, a liar and a warmonger, a mother who doesn’t believe in motherhood, a political boss with a cheating husband whose transgressions against other women she helped cover up. The number of women who want to be like Hillary when they grow up is, let’s hope, extremely small.
Dr. Anna Shaw: Presumably in heaven
