Subject: RE: NY. Election sign dichotomy.Any thoughts
Look.. reality check ok? All of these birds are politicians, most are lawyers, the lowest form of life on the planet except for used car salesmen, right? OK, we elect them to the highest offices because they are the ones with enough balls or ego to expose themselves to the vitriol of the public. Suddenly, they become president and we expect them to change into a paragon of virtue! Does that make sense?
As I said before, there are those who can not stand Hillery, and, IMO, it is mostly because she is bright and ambitious. Qualities in a man, faults in a woman. The knuckle draggers and mouth breathers are scared to death of her because they are afraid she will be able to do the job as well as any man. It's the same siege mentality that caused the young woman to quit the military academy a few years ago.Firemen, policemen and airline pilots, ,any are afraid that if a woman can do his job, that they are somehow less of a man. To them I say "Come on fellas, the dark ages are past, grow up"
