"women are simply not endowed by nature with the same..." |

"Rail as they will about 'discrimination,' women are simply not endowed by nature with the same measures of single-minded ambition and the will to succeed in the fiercely competitive world of Western capitalism." - Patrick J. Buchanan
What an absolute PRICK!

Or has he forgotten abut his good friend, the Baroness Thatcher?
on edit: And if that were the case, why should he be so worried about Hillary?

Pat, would you say your sister Bay lacks the fortitude for success. In my opinion, Bay is no slouch.

and, yes, ambitious women who have gone on to becoming the CEOs of small to medium size corporations and have succeeded quite well.They have certainly outperformed you.
Buchanan hides behind such sweeping statements to hide his own inadequacies.What he does not say is that by the same yardstick he should be classed as a failure.
May be it is the short dick.The biggest asshole in the Western world, bar none.

18. When Estee Lauder died last year |

her company was worth 10 billion. (yes, that's with a b , Pat)
That amount, in $1 bills, could fit easily into that dickwad's mouth.

Women can be meaner than catshit and tougher than nails. Men actually freak out when we are like that....
Frankly, I'd HATE to see a republican FEMALE at the helm. We would be in total misery. Imagine "Private Prisons" Babs Bush at the helm... :scared:
There have been female leaders of nations since time began; not all of them were "gentle".
*Pat B, you ignorant slut* LOL

Whatever keeps you down so I don't have to compete with you on a level playing field is fine by me. Another few years of undermining your civil liberties, and we men can ship you off to breeding centers where you belong.

That's the same moron that called Canada "Soviet Canuckistan" because Canadian officials objected to a U.S. law demanding photos and fingerprints from Arab-Canadian visitors to the country.

was simply not endowed with either the abilities or the singleminded drive toward success that would make him the equal of any successful woman in Western government OR capitalism, which is why he continues to spew sexist nonsense, trying to make us think his dick hasn't fallen off for lack of use.
I mean, honestly, would any of YOU get near that little thing?

9. I'm put in mind of an old Ginger Rogers/Fred Astaire story ...... |
|
I honestly don't know if this is true or not, but it certainly hits the nail on the head ......
When asked about her dancing with Fred, Ginger is reputed to have quipped "Women have to do everything the man does, but they have to do it backwards .... while wearing heels."
Any woman who's had a measure of success has had to work harder, smarter, and longer than a man of equal ability. And she's had to, without a shred of doubt, put up with unwanted comments and innuendo along the way. Comments and innuendo no man would (or perhaps even *could*) tolerate.

So how do you explain Belinda Stronach? I'm sure you've met her. She used to be powerhouse in the CRAP (Canadian-reform-alliance party) here in Canada. Also CEO of the largest auto parts companies in the world. Friend of Bill Clinton. Now Liberal cabinet member. She just might be our P.M. in a few years. Just askin....

and this woman's prescence when she visited our offices inspired fear in grown men the likes of which I've never seen. She chewed up and spit out her male corporate counterparts.
