John Derbyshire (on Alan Colmes radio show):

Quote:
Among the hopes that I do not realistically nurse is the hope that female suffrage will be repealed. But I’ll say this – if it were to be, I wouldn’t lose a minute’s sleep.
Asked if he was really saying that America would be a better country if women didn't vote, he answered:

Quote:
Probably. Don't you think so?
It's not some crazy extremist. Actually, it is, but it's also a mainstream right-winger paid by one of the pre-eminent publications on the right. He's part of the right's ideological leadership.

And he thinks you women shouldn't vote.

He's just another in a long list of entertainers who open their mouth & garbage spills out. I have no use for vermin like that.

:goes to read it:

But the Republican party doesn't believe that do they? Otherwise
my relatives which some are women and girls, would not be in it.

Ann Coulter said?

"If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat president.
It’s kind of a pipe dream, it’s a personal fantasy of mine, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. And it
is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women."




the question should be why do women vote Democrat
more than Republican if they do, and then see if we can adapt
some things? Not take away the vote.

I'm glad this isn't real.

Maybe he would be happier living in Afghanistan as it seems that he shares the same perception of women that the Taliban does, which is really not a very different ideology than the fringe right wing lunatics.

Couldn't be because the Republican party wants to tell women what they can and can't do with their own bodies.

Just a slight possibility.

(I know this for a fact. My sister was all psyched up about voting for McCain Palin, until I showed her Sarah dearests view on abortion, she did a 180 flip)

She is saying that women vote by feeling and judging by the answers women give to me regarding why they voted for Obama or Hilary, I'm not sure they're wrong.
It's really just sour grapes though.

Well, if we aren't allowed to vote, we don't have to pay taxes, or sleep with men any more, either.

Golly gee, Ida no matter what some think there is no way that this little law will ever be repealed. Aren't women in the majority? If that happened it would be the fault of women that let it happen.

I do think that women tend to vote more emotionally than men but then they are still involved in decision making by their power over the men in their house? You do know what I mean, like handy headaches and things like that?

I do agree with Ann Coulter about this subject but like her I know there will be no change until women get around to taking the vote away from men.

I would support all women sleeping with women too.

My impression is that anybody who voted for McCain/Palin was voting on feelings, too. Easily manipulated feelings.
