An evergreen guide to what the Left is doing or plans to do is to listen to what they accuse their political opponents of. Along those lines, incandescent in its projection, cynicism, and hypocrisy is the latest mantra emanating from the Democrats of the Republican War On Women, based on nothing more than some crude comments (since apologized for) by a talk-show host aimed at a Democrat feminist activist who thinks that the world owes her free (and expensive) contraception and, moreover, that it should be done in violation of the religious conscience of Catholics. Of course, they dont want their demagoguery to be distracted by the annoying reality that their own misogyny and assault on women is much more virulent, and has been going on for much longer.
It should be shocking, by the conventional narrative, that the White House of a liberal president would be a hostile work environment for women, but it is not at all a surprise to anyone familiar with the history of the Democrats and the Left, going back at least to the 1960s, when a prominent Democrat politician got a pass from the media for abandoning a young woman (possibly pregnant by him) to drown in his car. The same man went on to later fame as the top slice of bread in a waitress sandwich, and yet was so lionized by the Left that not that long ago, at the time of his death, a woman(!) wrote that Mary Jo Kopechne might have been happy to undergo the terror as her lungs filled with the brackish water of Marthas Vineyard had she only known what a great legislator he would turn out to be.

Mad Men is gross liberal fiction. Please don't get your reality from Hollywood.
I grew up in that era. I would be about Sally's age. It seems to me to be a largely accurate depiction of the times. That's actually a large part of its appeal.
Where did you live, Sodom and Gomorrah?
I have no idea what that question is supposed to mean.
Have you ever actually watched the show?
It means you are wrong.
I understand that many believe TV shows reflect historical reality.
That’s why I posted that this one certainly does not.
They back a man that caused the disease epidemic in the Playboy mansion grotto.
PLAYBOY.......at one time woman said this was degrading to them.
Well, you'll have to walk me through that logic, because I think that there must have been several steps missing in the syllogism.
I understand that many believe TV shows reflect historical reality.
I don't whether that's true or not, but it certainly isn't my belief, in general, so I'm not sure what the relevance would be of what "many believe."
Thats why I posted that this one certainly does not.
But you provided no evidence to support your case. I live through the era. I watch the show. I think that in this case, it actually does.
Again, do you have a case to make, on the basis of actual examples in the show that wouldn't be historically plausible? Or just unsupported assertions and non sequiturs about Sodom and Gomorrah and what people other than me may or may not believe?
From “pro-choice” to mandatory abortion, that’s a “freedom for women” scheme of destruction of woman by the left. The liberals use the snitching on the angry white man 4 year old scheme and it works every time.
Are you one of the writers?
I answered your questions, now answer mine. Have you ever seen the show? If not, what are your credentials to tell me I'm wrong? Because you certainly have made zero case for it.
Why are you so mad? Isn’t anyone allowed to have higher morals than a TV show written by Feminists?
You have been brainwashed. If you think the biggest problem women have is being treated “equal”, then you don’t understand Christianity, or family structure, or the basis of our rights as Americans, or socialism...on and on.
They got to you. I’m so sorry.
Yet more non sequiturs. In fact, I am not "mad" at all. I'm just trying to figure out what your point is. You obviously aren't going to help me.
OK, I get it. You're not going to answer my question, because clearly, the answer is "no," and you have no idea what you're talking about. Any further discussion is clearly a waste of both of our time.
How Many Little girls have Been Slaughtered By Abortionists in the Past 20 Years? Now Who is Against Women?
You are completely undermining your relevance and integrity!
Haven't you ever heard the advice that when you realize you are in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging?
Why are you so emotionally involved? This isn’t personal - I don’t know you and your girlfriend. I have the option of calling a piece of feminist propaganda a lie (and very naive) if that’s what I believe.
The article mentions the show as if it was historically accurate which it is not. It is a diversion to discuss the details of the show when my point is the author is basing his opinions on a fictional TV show. That makes the entire article useless.
My advice to you: Don’t get so offended that you lose your ability to think logically because you look really silly and immature.
I think you are on the wrong forum. Your behavior is much more along the lines of DU.
You have a lot of growing up to do, little girl. A heck of a lot of growing up to do.
Now, toodle on back to DU and whimper to your friends about the mean ol' Freeper.

The left, since Genesis 3, been trying to shoe-horn women into men’s roles.
It’s not a “fit”. Men and women are NOT interchangeable. Their “wiring” does not interchange.
No matter how much the left tries, especially in recent times, to make it so women “can have sex like men”, it’s not the psychological wiring that they were born with, and it will cause emotional and mental problems if they try to force it.
