26. Ah, the covert bigotry of the "War on Women".

As if we're SO damned delicate we can't stand being criticized for staying at home...or not staying at home...or what-freaking-EVER, without having a hissy fit. Just shut up, BOTH parties, and make it easier for people all the way around by getting us some jobs, providing us some services, educating our children worth a damn, recognizing that we women DO have the right to have a kid or not and men just have to suck it up and deal, and not putting us on an ice floe when we get sick or old. Quit USING us as rocks to lob at one another, you holier-than-thou manipulative twits!

Thanks. That felt good.
