Who are you to speak for women??!!

Excuse me...last time I checked, I was a woman. I am not easily swayed, nor am I dismayed.

I'm a Freeper woman, just like you, and like you I am not easily swayed or dismayed. I am not talking about us or the other level-headed women on this forum. I am referring to the moderate women I meet everywhere, the soccer moms and suburbanites whose votes can be swayed in an election year by appeals to emotion. A lot of them voted for Bush in 2000 and 2004 because they were concerned about the security of their children, but they also voted for Clinton because they weren't thinking much at all. If the war is portrayed as cruel and scary their votes will go the other way in 2006 and 2008. The pictures of our soldiers cuddling Iraqi children are much better for winning the votes of these people.

You are very condescending to women's intelligence.
