gladys46 Hi Annie ... I too agree with poster!! To your comment, Today's GOP (mostly white males) must, it appears, be obedient to their base ... keep women in the "cafeteria" or kitchen and make sure they're home to prepare dinner in time ... and, neatly toss out...

gladys46 Additionally Annie, in a featured column in the National Memo, EJ Dionne writes: "They say that President Obama is a muslim, but if he isn't he's a secularist who is waging war on religion. On some days he's a Nazi but on most others he's merely a socialist....

gladys46 Hi Annie ... I agree wholeheartedly that Luntz' suggestion is outrageous. I also question any audience who receives this applauding! These are those who reduce/marginalize the very office of America's president. When a shoe was thrown at GW Bush by a...

gladys46 Hi Annie! I think Ms. Scoppe's reaction is just symptomatic of demographic, bigoted mindsets even in media. I can think of at least one other painful example that she might have used ... very simply, we made a mistake!

gladys46 The voters ah, the electorate of PA was the "ethics committee" ... we tossed Santorum out! For this and oh so many other conflicts. To PA voters, Santorum was unacceptable then as a proper elected official as much as he is today.

gladys46 Crossbones, I too find it interesting to put it mildly! Especially, when the very folks forever yelling that they are the "real conservatives" are thorougly vetted ... they are found to be those who actually get great "entitlements"!

gladys46 I take your point. However, I believe that Mr. Santorum being the very far right "REAL conservative" that he espouses to be must have discussed his run for PA elected official with his family and the probabilities of his constant absences. The more noble thing...

gladys46 Hi Aja ... I really think that perhaps we ought not demand that the "victim" act as we would like. Perhaps all that collective guilty thing could be better harnessed and presented to this teacher as a collective apology.
