The folks who write for that blog are funnier than a sack of squirrels and they've figured out how to make the hate-cultist look ridiculous.

IMO they make up a very vocal minority that the low information and relatively uneducated segment of the party coalesced around. Unfortunately there are far too many in the party that choose not to speak for fear of being ostrcicize and beat down. I see it daily on blogs like Lisa's racist Smut Hut and others. <br /><br />The problem with the GOP is it no longer has a strong intellectual voice addressing the real problems the nation faces. It has allowed itself to become the party represented by Hannity, Levin, Beck, Coulter, Limbaugh, Gohmert, Cruz, et all rather those who value fiscal responsibility and personal accountability.<br /><br />On second thought Dave you might be right. <br /><br />Guess that is why some folks likely moved from republican to independent. I know I did 10 years ago and will NEVER again belong to ANY party.<br /><br />I'm reminded of "Lord of the Flies".<br /><br />Oy Vey America....Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-72141870307711831012015-02-05T23:18:20.848-05:002015-02-05T23:18:20.848-05:00"obama Hates America, obama Hates Christianit..."obama Hates America, obama Hates Christianity, obama Hates civilized countries by all of my observations.

I say that because it's also a hot topic in another community I support.<br /><br />Consent.<br /><br />There are many more blogs who have addressed patriarchy, how it is set up, who wins (spoiler alert - no one), and why the idea you can have sex with your spouse without their knowledge or consent is an OK thing - even a right. It is everything to do with why there is a rape culture in our country.<br /><br />Apologists - you can bring your arguments but I've been schooled by the best. It distills down to power and the concept that yes means yes. It comes down to the idea that maybe we shouldn't follow the concept of do unto others as you want them to do to you. I'm a masochist. A darn good one as I'm older than fifty. Are you sure you can handle what I want done to me?<br /><br />Oooo - masochism = mental illness. Yep, I am crazy. Crazy for accepting societies definition of me while doing my best to understand I was just born this way. <br /><br />So - back to consent. And communication. And empathy. And the campaign of Yes means Yes. If I'm not screaming yes from the top of my freaking lungs you'd better not be touching me.<br /><br />Shades of grey is coming out soon. School yourselves because we are more and have been discussing consent and power for a long time.<br /><br />No one can take your power from you without your consent. If they do, that is rape. It no longer is about whatever activity the two of you are engaged in - it is power. And there is nothing you - the person who was raped - could do about it. When someone decides what you have is theirs, yeah, patriarchy doesn't teach self restraint. Those boys are indulged.<br /><br />I've meant to say that for a while. Thanks for the avenue. You rock Shaw - you simply do.<br />c.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
