Amber, I stand corrected. I don’t do mocking tone of voice well. And I’m even worse at avoiding sounding like misogynist assholes when I happen to agree with them about other things they’ve said that don’t have to do with sexism and misogyny. I don’t know how people could have borne up under the tons of crap Kos and others were flinging at Hillary. I caught some of it myself for supporting her, and a couple of times I lost it at some dear friends.

I think people have perfectly good reasons for voting for anybody they damn well want to. I think McCain’s record is a horrible on all kinds of scores. And if I have time to think about it, the whole idea of women or anybody else being guided, much less misguided, kinda pisses me off.

Saying I didn’t mean it that way don’t cut it. I wrote it and I was wrong. I’m sorry.

And obtw, fucking WordPress put both your comments into an approval queue, and I just now managed to retrieve them.

who’d already bought into the Republican narrative

One more reason, Bob, that a good narrative is not a good way to truth.

I certainly hope you didn’t disappear my comment calling out your sexist language.

Are there actual PUMAs? Sure. Why not? But the sites Amanda and Lindsay and their commenters found peg my bogometer.

That’s because all you ladies are way to emotional and far too stupid to figure out what McCain has voted to do for and to women over the years and what he’s promised to do if he’s elected.

Hello?

I would be VERY careful about throwing shit like THAT around. You think women haven’t heard, time and again, like a broken record, that we’re “too emotional,” much less stupid? I think what the Clinton supporters voting for McCain are doing is misguided, but this statement from you comes off as nothing short of misogynist.
