"Is it my imagination, or does it seem like Alan Colmes gets serious constipation whenever she is on with Hannity?"
I've noticed that, too, and you're right...Alan IS scared sh*tless of Ann, LOL!
Great article. And I agree with her 100%, even with being retired Army and female myself. There are some jobs that females shouldn't do. (I'm bulking up so I can pass Ann's pickle jar test...)
Let's all send her jars of pickles! Wouldn't that be funny? She'd get the humor.
While females are fine in some areas of public safety in others I see hazards. Firefighters have to be able to lift heavy equipment, rescue potentially heavy civilians and do other tasks that require considerable upper body strength. Sorry gals the typical female doesn't have this strength and is often accomodated with reduced physical requirements in selection to comply with equal opportunity. On the contrary I have worked with female paramedics who are well suited to their role.
With the suicidal non-Muslim folks that keep popping up, I would expect deliberate attempts to be quite frequent...
Ann and Matt Drudge are good buddies. A good match. Both are pretty fearless.

But if they want to kill a lot of people, they can do it on the ground without having to use up a perfectly good suicide fanatic.
But there haven't been any major attacks against the US since Sept 11. I think the reason is that radical Islamists have realized that terror doesn't work on Americans the way it does on, for example, Spanish voters or Italians or the Clinton administration. When terrorists attacked us, they lost two host countries.
Piece of cake,I showed my wife the process, many times over; Turn the jar upside down, give it a good whack on the bottom until you hear a "pop", turn around twist the cap...and "voila" it is open!
The secret is that you have to whack it, really, really hard to pop. It takes some ooomph to do it. Female wise good luck with the tiny hands!
BTW she always is asking me to open all jars no matter what, because she ain't got no ooomph!
It was surreal..we had gotten the situation somewhat under control and she came in like she was Hulk Hogan and put all of us in danger...and the other cops naturally became protective of her and we got pepper sprayed. It was out of control.
P.S. your parents gave you a great name
Equal Opportunity for Guards (It's not just PC; It's the [Judge-Made-Up] Law)

III. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR GUARDS
A. Title VII
Both male and female guards have frequently claimed a right to gender-neutral employment in prisons housing inmates of the opposite gender. Their claims are based on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits gender discrimination in employment.73 Because there are far more male inmates in prison than there are females, in most states there are only one or two women's facilities.74 If women can only guard women, there will be fewer jobs open to women [SHREIK!!!!!!], and it may well be that none of those that are available will be near the guard's home.[GASP!!!!!!!}]
(Excerpt) Read more at law.duke.edu ...
Many LE agency policies are driven by the results of lawsuits, where female officers claimed they were discriminated against if they weren't allowed to do every job men did and just the way men did it.
Yeah, it was SUPREMELY stupid for the Atlanta sheriff's office to handle the Brian Nichols case the way it did.
OTOH, what's a sheriff's office to do if it assigns duties based on physical strength, etc. and that happens to lessen the job opportunities for, gasp, women?
There's no excuse for all the mistakes made in Atlanta. But the bigger picture is that this is MORE ROTTEN FRUIT FROM THE ROTTEN JUDICIAL TREE in America.
A lot of this crapola is because judges are legislating agency policies from the bench instead of leaving it to, say, professional law enforcement agents who might still employ a modicum of common sense.
GO ANN!
It's judges that crammed these dangerous PC policies down the throats of many otherwise common-sense people. It's judges that are partly responsible for these deaths by harping to employers, on pain of stiff economic and political penalty, that they MUST ignore the realities of the genders.
perhaps the question should be - can I name any man cantankerous enough! (answer is "no")
didn't Heather Locklear also have a turn as a policewoman? With Will Shatner? Or am I confusing my tvland?
Not only did pipsqueak escort Nichols, she (1) escorted him alone, and (2) was required to take off his handcuffs so he could change into civilian clothes, so as to not be discriminated against as a prisoner. Oh and (3) the guys supposedly watching on the vid cameras for any funny business were getting a donut at the time.
Rich, Dowd, Pinch, et. al., I have a very funny line to type, ready?
"Paper of Record."
Yep. And I'm the queen of England.

Wonder how many of the vast left wing conspiracy want their gandmothers in this situation? What a tragedy.
Great line though.
Maybe you should contact her directly. I'm sure she would be happy to assist.
