and NOW, for the latest sexist analogy: Electile Dysfunction

I just read that all the ‘older’ women aren’t voting Obama because we’re like first wives that have just been thrown over for a trophy wife.

Here’s the link:

The article (written by a woman) opens:

“It seems as if Hillary Clinton is just the latest mature, dependable, experienced woman to be unceremoniously dumped for a younger, prettier doe-eyed companion.”

After a few unflattering things to say about Harriet Christian (the now famous angry woman captured by Jane Hamshear of Firedog Lake), we are regaled by yet another round of woman-baiting verbiage.

“The anger of Ms. Christian and her Democrat sisters has perhaps less to do with the fact that Barack Obama is an “inadequate black male” than that he is the trophy wife for whom Mrs. Clinton — and by extension, her graying, menopausal supporters — has been thrown over.”

So now Barrack Obama is a trophy wife.  Elizabeth Scalia just keeps on with this analogy and digs in deeper.

“As a trophy wife, Obama would be content to let the Democrats pull out of Iraq; Hillary might actually suggest they stay. Obama would be able to sell the socialized health care Hillary couldn’t pull off. Most importantly, Obama would schmooze and photo-op with the elites for whose approval the Democrats so desperately yearned; Hillary was untrustworthy, there. She might snub Ahmadinejad and, like Bill Clinton before her, pledge to jump into a trench with a rifle to defend Israel. Obama would smile and look good while doing neither.”

While Obama is a trophy wife,  women not supporting him are now called “Youtube women”.  Any one who knows me, also knows I could not let this just drop without a response. I also couldn’t let the analogy drop.  So, join me while I explain why Obama doesn’t cut it in the performance arena.  Maybe this is why Michelle Obama is so angry all the time.

Actually, I say that women of a certain age and level of experience are not willing to vote for a guy of a certain age and level of performance that needs a medicine cabinet full of little blue pills to perform.

Obama cannot speak intelligently and with facts off teleprompter. Let’s also make it clear that his speeches are about “change you can xerox”.  Besides leaning heavily on the speeches of others, he also has twenty paid speech writers on staff.

His list of accomplishments is thin.  He really lacks that carry through and finish the project well factor.  He appears to have gotten the few positions he has attained by something other than achievement and brains. Folks in high schools with mostly B’s do not get into the Columbia University as a general rule. It used to be that one could not be the President of the Harvard Review without having achieved the top grade in the class. It also used to be they clerked with supreme court associates and at the very least with an associate of one of the major appeals courts without exception. It is unique that one is the President of the Harvard Law Review and doesn’t clerk for any prestigious court AND never publishes a single article. That’s right UNIQUE.

Usually, one does not win elections by getting the other candidates thrown out on a technicality. He’s done that twice. Now, he’s received the democratic nomination (sic) under highly suspicious circumstances. One, there have been lots of overly-weighted caucuses in states that usually don’t have caucuses. Two, he voluntarily pulled his name off a ballot and still managed to get pledged delegates from that race while taking voters who voted from a different candidate..  Isn’t this just one more symptom premature electile dysfunction?  Pulling out before you lose it? Could it just be that women are keener judges of who can cut it and who can’t perform?

Again, is this the real reason Michelle is perpetually grumpy, angry and mean?
