4. There's some younger people who wouldn't know Alan Greenspan if he bit them in the arse.

They also would have no clue Andrea Mitchell is married to him. I, for many, many years, didn't know they were married. I call her Mrs. Greenspan AS AN INSULT to a RW hack and to connect her to her husband's disastrous economic policies. Then younger people can Google Greenspan and read all about the jerk.

If someone takes that as a personal insult and is upset by it... That's just fucking weird.

Seriously, if I used my birth name, I wouldn't give two hoots what you call a corrupt RW hack! Why the hell do I care what you call Andrea Mitchell?

I saw that thread and ignored it because I thought it was RIDICULOUS. She's extra touchy about using her own last name....for whatever reason. I really don't care what she thinks.

Just because she has issues with using her own last name, doesn't give her the right to tell anyone else what they can and can't say about MRS. GREENSPAN. I'd say that's Her problem to work out. Mrs. Greenspan does NOT deserve my respect and she's not getting it. I don't care that she was an accomplished journalist before she married the man! Deal with it! But don't tell me what I can or cannot call a CORRUPT RIGHT WING HACK. Sheesh. Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill!

It's NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING MISOGYNISTIC.

Adj. 1. misogynistic - hating women in particular misogynistic - hating women in particular

First of all, I don't hate Mrs. Greenspan. I don't like her, but I don't hate her. I don't dislike her because she's a woman. I don't like her because she's a corrupt RW hack who is married to the man whose economic policies damn near destroyed this country.

Hillpack will whine and complain about anything! They're best IGNORED.


PEACE
LOVE
