/How would you feel about having a woman Vice-President?/
I'd be happy that history was being made, but whether or not I would like her would depend upon the kind of person she was and what policies she supported.
/I can't believe McCain picked Palin who is a mother of 5 kids./
As opposed to Bobby Kennedy, who had quite a number of kids of his own?
/She needs to be at home taking care of them instead of running for VP./
What about her husband? Is he invisible?
/You can't be a good mom and a good Vice President./
What about being a good dad and a good Vice President?
/Women don't belong in politics/
Tell that to Elizabeth I, Queen Victoria, Cleopatra, Hatshepsut, Joan of Arc (yes, she was involved in politics in a way because she helped the future king of France gain the throne), Katherine of Aragon, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and Isabella of Castile.
/and that is why they were originally not allowed to vote./
No, they were not allowed to vote, because sexist chauvinist pigs that called themselves men could not stand the thought of allowing those that they considered so beneath them have the privilege of sharing something they considered to be important. In other words: men were immature, selfish hogs.
/Women's mood swings, their drama, and their emotions cloud their vision and distort reality./
HA, HA, HA! *tries to recover from laughter* Mood swings, you say? Well, I can think of quite a number of crazy male rulers throughout history who had serious mood swings and serious issues, to boot. And I'm not just talking about mad Roman emperors.
/What a foolish decision. God directs man to rule over woman, not the other way around./
Which is why my father is the one who frequently loses his temper, throws tantrums like a ten-year-old, and slams doors to get his point across, while my mother is the one who has to stand there and weather it all out. Sure. *eyeroll* What a loon.
@Princess Rot: I agree.
