McCain and Women

Alright. I have found that I am not alone in wondering about McCain's almost indifference towards women. His voting record is terrible. He hasn't voted for a single women's issue since he has been in senate including the Equal Work, Equal Pay bill or the bill to force those who cover Viagra to cover contraceptives too. Now they found that terrible joke about a woman enjoying being beaten, raped repeatedly, and left to die by a gorilla. It makes no sense that no one is out screaming in the streets over this. I hate to bring this up again when talking about something McCain said, but if Obama had said this, he would be in more trouble than can be imagined.

His handlers just shrugged it off. I guess this is what really makes me mad. They just said that this shows McCain being McCain. Yeah. That is what I want for president. What is he going to do next? His sad attempts at rumor never seem to get more than half-hearted chuckles from those around him. When he said that the cigarettes we export to Iran might be to kill people, that was bad enough. I could already guess from things he has said that he would be tasteless when it came to his xenophobia, but now he is turning more and more chauvinistic and increasingly xenophobic. I am just waiting for him to call Obama "Boy" next so we can all add bigoted to the list of his characteristics which are pure McCain and reasons for us to make him president. Oh yeah, and he's OLD!!
