My Comment Republican Mean Girls - Maureen Dowd's Column

Below is my response to Maureen Dowd's column about Republicans being "mean girls".

There is a surge of women running for office across the country who do not share Maureen's liberal/progressive, north-east mentality. They are asserting their own viewpoint and challenging feminists to decide if they are for women or just for liberal women. The same is happening with the NAACP. So far groups like NOW and the NAACP are showing low levels of tolerance if not outright hostility to people who are the right sex and color but just do not agree with them politically.

Maureen in this article lumps together many prominent Republican women who are not in lock step with 60's style feminism. I have seen this many times with liberal women who are alleged feminists. They are hostile and contemptuous of those who are on the other side of the aisle. They are the mean and intolerant ones. They sound petty, jealous, shrill and like they are deathly afraid of losing their monopoly.

Maureen, get used to it, there is a surge in women who have an opposite view of you, they can’t all be bad.
