My wife is a Filipina, an RN who came to the US eighteen years ago on a work visa. She's now a newly naturalized citizen, and she just got through casting her very first mail-in ballot.
She just went on a mini-rant after watching a news segment on the two presidential campaigns' efforts to court "the much-sought-after undecided women's vote," women constituting a sizable majority of the "undecideds," apparently.
Her exasperated and repeated refrain: "I just can't believe they could still be undecided - what kind of woman can be that stupid!"
Her rant voiced a strong confirmation of her growing impression that American women are exceedingly silly, spoiled, dumb and impressionable, and lacking in any true moral or intellectual fiber. But much of her rant also voiced shame that, as a citizen, she would be lumped in now with such women. She also realizes what such idiocy in half the voting public might mean for the future of the nation she has joined, and which she once idolized from afar.
For years now, in fact since the Clinton days, there have been posts on FR openly questioning the wisdom of America allowing women the vote. My wife has now formally joined those asking that question.
My wife has approved your wifes post as well.
It’s true. My wife’s best friend, a self-confessed liberal, sometimes apologetically though, so.. said she was very undecided mainly because she actually did not like what Obama has done to the Democrat party. She confided in me (and she would kill me if she knew I wrote this) that she voted for Romney (absentee) as a “protest vote” against the party, but having come Ohio, she says she is astounded at even though a vast majority vote democrat, they are in a sense very conservative people, and truly are undecided... which still boggles my mind.
Most women vote like they date. Now, look at the women’s section of the bookstore and all the books addressing their catastrophic lovelives. There ya go.
Indeed.
"When it is not necessary to make a decision, it is necessary not to make a decision."
Your wife can wait until she's about to pull the lever, before deciding.
My wife has approved any other wife’s post approving your wife’s post.
Very similar to my wife's comments. And she's already voted. Straight Republican.
Surprise, surprise, I’ve found the media archtype they’ve been laying on us to be quite reversed. All the conservative women I know are morally tough, strong and decisive. My wife, too, lambasts the wishy-washiness of some women voters. What, they’ve grown to an adult age and don’t know what they believe?
So, in my experience, it’s the “liberated”, sex-in-the-city, fluttering geese that are, for the want of a better word...stupid.
How often are men demeaned by being told we only think with the wrong head? Yet, the Democrats seem to be actually campaigning that women should vote based on their woman’s bits. It’s amazing to me that ANY woman would sell their liberty for free abortions and contraception, but the sad truth is, some will.
Uninformed, ignorant, women (and younger voters) who drink the koolaid by watching nothing but lamestream media, the Daily Show, the View, etc. but yet don’t like the high price of everything are very conflicted and undecided. My cubicle mate is one. She basically turned demonrat to rebel against her parents 35 years ago.
I am married to the daughter of a Filipina! I, too, enjoy those same rants about stupid liberal women (but, unfortunately, she doesn’t know any of the tugolog cuss words!).
Of course, I should not have included your wife amongst the undecided, in my post #5.
Perhaps, it’s also best to follow the dictum: When it’s not necessary to post, it’s necessary to not post.
My wife adds, “Any undecided men are not real men, either. They need to get a grip!”
Ya’ gotta love her.
Anyone, male or female, who is still “undecided” at this stage of the game has no business voting. They are clueless.
My Singapore Chinese wife thinks exactly the same thing.
And Mine as well!
As a wife, I approve your wife’s post and the wives approving the post. I also approve the husband approving of his wife’s post and the husband who support their wives approving of the wife’s post.
The women of the View are very highly paid talking heads who don’t have to pay the price for the nonsense they spout. Modern American women aren’t liberated. They’re enslaved (slaves to sin). Like another poster wrote, just look at all the books being published about how to fix the mess most women have made of their lives. No government will EVER be big enough or powerful enough to fix their hollow lives, but that doesn’t stop them from voting Democrat.
