New Jeb Bush Hire Called Women 'Sluts' On Twitter

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's political action committee has drawn the ire of Democrats over a new staffer's history of offensive remarks on Twitter.
Between 2009 and 2011, Ethan Czahor, co-founder of Hipster.com and now chief technology officer of Right to Rise PAC, made a series of inflammatory comments about "sluts" and gay men at the gym, among others. He took to Twitter on Monday to say that he had "deleted some old jokes i made years ago that i no longer find funny or appropriate. #learning #maturing."
"Governor Bush believes the comments were inappropriate," a spokeswoman for Bush told BuzzFeed. "They have been deleted at our request. Ethan is a great talent in the tech world and we are very excited to have him on board the Right to Rise PAC."
Democrats blasted out the tweets to reporters and criticized Czahor's hiring.
"I’m not sure what sort of conversations are going on with the adults Governor Bush knows, but these statements don’t belong in a schoolyard screaming match, much less in our political discourse," said Rebecca Chalif, a spokeswoman for the Democratic National Committee. "If this is the kind of guy Jeb's team has chosen to lead their digital outreach, it's clear they are not ready for prime time."

By thy friends AND thy hires art thou known, jebbie. You either approved him yourself OR your appointees and other assorted lieutenants did. And if they're working for you, this hire still has YOUR name on it.

I love it
Just as most high school students dread Chemistry in their junior year, so too did we Chem majors dread P-Chem in our junior year. 
So congrats to your daughters for pursuing science despite the barriers that society continues to put up. When I started college 36 years ago, we had about 100 Chem majors. At graduation 4 years later, we were down to 15 with that major (out of a class of about 4000 total). 
For some stupid reason, I was able to memorize dozens and dozens of organic reaction mechanisms... But don't try to ask me one now. Had a great professor too (and still have my old Morrison and Boyd textbook). Ended up doing senior year research in organo-metallic chemistry (focus on nickel compounds as an intermediary for polymerization).
Just glad to see women staying with the sciences and yeah, sometimes Moms have to impart that "knowledge" about some of these companies. 
I made the mistake of taking 2 semesters of organic chem in 8 weeks of summer school. Damn near did me in. That was back on 1973, and I still have nightmares about it sometimes. I recall the textbook not being particularly helpful.
All I remember from that class is the French scientist Kekule' (sp?) who figured out the 6 carbon ring structure after dreaming about a snake with its tail in its mouth, that making soap is called saponification, carbs are CH2O, ammonia is NH3, esters can smell good, and if it ends in -OH it's an alcohol.
Oh, one other VERY important thing - NEVER directly sniff a vial full of anything to try to figure out what it is - always gently wave your hand over the vial to waft a bit of it towards you. Made that mistake with ammonia - 
Benzene rings. 
OMG haven't heard the name Kekule in decades... And that made me think of Avogadro's number or as it was always spoken - Sixpointohtwotimestentothetwentythird. That's it. I'm going to lose some important brain files now.
Ammonia is rough (which is what got produced in "smelling salts" .
What is it that they say? "Old chemists never die, they just fail to react".
