Why don’t liberals decry the Islamic war on women?

[madeline_con]

Allen B. West is confused. He seems to think we don't support women's rights if the oppressors claim to be Muslim.

1. Progressives are consistent on this and a or it no matter which demographic does it

2. West is typical of right wing loons who live inside the media bubble

and he thinks those shock jocks and Pox News are all telling him the truth about what liberals think.

A lot of them are like that, I'm afraid, and they'll never ask us how we think, they'll try to tell us how we think.

That bubble has been getting a bit smaller and less comfy as time has gone on. Pretty soon the folks inside it will either have to pop it or risk being squashed to death.

3. Left vs Right

The right ALWAYS say what the left and the President really think.

The Left ALWAYS say what the right says and votes for.

4. Spivak's phrase is "White men saving brown women from brown men"

and I remember this argument from '06: "secularists must be for Israel's attack on Lebanon! torture's okay if it's not done by friars! Bush's approach to the Mideast is soft and wimpy! libruls are leaving us open to sharia!"

5. dear goddess, I need to have my computer deloused after visiting that hateful page.

Hey, allen, you ignorant, hate-mongering git--WE, the liberal, progressive, radical women of this country, do not need YOU to tell us what the hell is going on with women around the world. WE do not need YOU telling us about FGM--WE are the ones who are fighting against it.

so, suddenly, YOU are a protector of women's rights, because you feel so bad that malala was not named person of the year? wow, you egotistical little waste of oxygen and resources. do us all a favour and crawl back into whatever hole you came from, and try to learn a thing or two.
