I'm sorry she had to put up with such foolishness. Speaking of which, one of my fellow employees actually wanted to go on a rant about Madame Secretary and Benghazi. I shut him up rather quickly by saying, "We can talk about this when you show me on a map where Benghazi is." He looked at me blankly so I helpfully offered,"Google it, but you'd best Google a few solid facts too, because when you come back, I'm already fully briefed and willing to engage, oh, and have a nice night."

I've started calling that womansplaining. I much prefer it to the old phrase "bitch slapping". Same effect but more politically correct.

And if this was posted elsewhere, I don't care. I saw yours and it was yours that I splattered all over my Facebook Page. I love the smell of Whale Fail in the morning. Thanks.

But there's a sect on DU that would consider this racist. I don't think they understand the concept behind racism.
