Misogony - Daily Kos
Here you go, the first two paragraphs, in their entirety:



In 1992, I saw Bill Clinton at the quad at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. (No, it's not a woman, yes, it's in Michigan). Bill had just schooled George Herbert Hoover Walker Bush in a debate at Michigan State University (AKA Moo U), and he was coming down to one of the finest public research universities in the world to say hey to some students. It was kind of a chilly night--iirc, it was about the second week of October--but the quad was so packed that you were warm, because literally people were jammed together. I was with a couple friends, but I was literally touching about four other people...including a woman who, I realized after about a half an hour, was quite enjoying her boyfriend's hand below her belt buckle.

It was the night I learned the term MILF, and it was applied to Hillary Clinton.


That, mind you, was just the set-up. Lovely, don't you think? He saw Bill Clinton and somebody getting jerked off at the same time, and where did his mind go? To wanting to fuck Hillary Clinton. Okay, to each his own, sexual-fantasy wise. No big

1. one of the responses to that Kos post says "hell hath no fury..."
I wonder if the leftists doing this crap will ever examine their actions in hindsight? It's so outrageous, but most of them seem to be in denial. I wonder if that will change over time?

2. Well, that's just from one of their bloggers...
but it's still pretty gross.

3. This is something Bill O'reilly would do

You're going to cherry pick one blogger out of hundreds of thousands and paint the entire Daily Kos site as Misogynist?

As I said, this is right out of Bill O's playbook.

4. Do you mean "misogyny?"
It reads more like someone's sexual fantasy than hatred of women.

8. No problemo.
I noticed the term 'MILF' has reached widespread use - i.e. Jon Stewart uses it often.

Maybe it is a misogynistic term, maybe it isn't.

I happen to think older women are very attractive, many of whom are likely mothers.

:shrug:

6. The quality at Kos has gone way down
since the strike. Used to be halfway decent reading over there but not any longer.

11. Your Hatewatchleft site is all about attacking Daily Kos
not good for the progressive movement.

I saw that the posts all center on attacking one of the blogs that
strongly promotes real progressives and the 50 state strategy.
