Eddie G laughs off Fox & Tea Parties
Ed's taunting the Tea Party People to turn out in numbers that would impress him, claiming a mere handful participate in the D.C. Tea Party rallies. He's appearing on Fox News, (rare Democrat to do so; save Jason Altmire who spoke almost daily to the #1 Cable News Network. ) Uh, ... Fast Eddie: me thinks you are getting your "news" from the 'mainstream' who include MSNBC and Donna Brazile/James Carville's employer, CNN.....THEY reported a mere few thousand while Fox was asking if they attended the same rally - or maybe they just Photo-Shopped in the bobble heads on up the avenue that looked like a pretty impressive turn-out to me. OK, Ed, maybe some of us still go to work at the jobs from which we collect paychecks, unlike politicians who can spend a year on the campaign trail looking after their ambitions while the business of the people is left to the porn-H.O.U.N.D.S. at the S.E.C. I understand. Use the Fair & Balanced air to quote all the other newscasts whose combined total viewers are dwarfed in comparison. WE watched Fox and saw - FOR OURSELVES how many Patriots were on hand, and ate our hearts out that we couldn't be there with them, except in spirit.

Ed Garland Takes Half Big Ben's Paycheck Out Of Milledgeville
Hearing the Police Reports about the details of the young woman's accusations against Ben Roethlesburger brought back all the times in the 70's and 80's when it seemed a significant percentage of men I encountered were driven to show me their "junk." I cannot say that I indicated any interest in the exposure during my encounters with them: I can only suppose that it was something in them. Coming from a poor family, my father having passed away while I was still in high school, it may only be that those guys assessed me as eagerly and desperately beholden to their whims. In the lower brain with which those type of guys think, you can hear their little penis person saying: "Sure! This girl will jump on it and try to prove to me that she's worthy of any cash I'd spend on her." Their mentors told them so.
It's been a few years since (thankfully) I've been subjected to that demonstration, and maybe it's because I've learned to sense and avoid the level of male acquaintance from whom this behavior emanates. My sense is that groupies, the girls who chase celebrities and jocks, are so in-your-face slutty that the jocks are convinced that it's universal. Money's appeal to "chicks" motivates the men of the athletic and rock star ilk just as Power is the aphrodesiac of politicians. Men don't need the money just to have money. With money, Chicks go for even ugly guys! As Terry Bradshaw advised Ben; "Come on, man. Neither one of us is that good looking; those girls wouldn't be looking at you at all if you didn't make a whole LOT of money." Ask yourself; would you want a woman who just wants your money? Woman: are the things you can buy for yourself with his money worth the price paid in respect you cannot command?
As for Ben, what Ed Garland didn't take for his services, the NFL will. Kinda like going into Wal Mart and having the Scanners in the ceiling show the boys in the back room how much you're carrying so they can leave you with bus fare or gas money to get home.
Shoot. No Yankee bo from Ohio is safe in Georgia. No point bein' stoopid, less'n yo can show it every now 'n then. As they's sayin' at the switchboard; "Thiank Yew!

DNC, Gender "Equality" and Equity Accrued
Commemorating Biden's "Big F-ing Deal" quote with a T Shirt prompts me to rise to a Point Of Order. The current Locker Room Leadership begs the presence of self-respecting women prepared to temper this improper conduct.
Women were devastated by the manner in which former Senator Edwards (pig on a guy trip) and the boys' club Senate members - like Harry Reid, Ted Kennedy, WV's senate delegation etc. shoved the qualified female candidate aside to force a political choice on the Party. For all his pompous championing of health care, the Lion of the Senate put a rookie in the Presidency rather than support the expertise of his female colleague, Senator Clinton, whose own experienced work on the issue is legendary. Jason Altmire, who voted against Obama Care, served on Clinton's staff during that lap around the learning curve track. He obviously found the plan lacking in comparison to the On-The-Money-Plan Candidate Clinton had proposed.
11th hour candidacy of Mark Critz, to stop Barbara Hafer's bid to represent the Democratic Party's defense of the 12th Congressional seat, forced a political choice: a supposed Washington insider to the game of protecting and preserving defense contracts for the District. I have no issue with Critz, however, Hafer was a well-qualified female candidate who had the credentials to deal professionally with Pelosi and Emmanuel while dismantling Murtha's domain. Hafer has successfully stood for election locally and state-wide several times. She possesses the skills to represent the 12th's Constituents eye-to-eye with the congressional powers that be. When the qualified woman announced, it was, in the view of the dues-paid Women of the Democratic Party, the duty of the County Chairs to step up and assert their support of her in the spirit of restoring the balance disrupted by the improper treatment suffered by Women in recent elections.
The County Chairs owe the Women of the Democratic Party an apology for their greed, aggressive commandeering of the Party's resources and the total TURN OFF to those of us who traditionally support, perform the work of the Party as volunteers and until recently contributed generously from our 67%-on-the-dollar incomes to advance the Party that supposedly treats Women as equals. We've seen, repeatedly, what happens when it really counts.
The results speak for themselves. Where are the Gentlemen, moreover, the MEN of the Democratic Party? I am grossed out by this guy crap. The f-bomb from the Vice President was the "In-Your Face" demonstration of the result of excluding women from the political process to the point that the corrupt penis wielders (: |) are now scandalously out of control.
Unions and the "Push Back" Progressive crowd literally CROWD OUT the gentlewomen of the Party, and the women notice: although we bring decades of distinguished service to the Party, we are being crudely, boorishly and foolishly dismissed. We respectfully recommend an end to the disgusting presence of testosterone on the Guy Tour. It is the responsibility of the State Committee to observe the gender equity guidelines and the duty of the Chairman to articulate, represent and communicate that obligation to all elected members. We wish to "educate" those elements who endeavor to discourage participation by women unwilling to buy into the Progressive / Leftist agenda.
Traditional Democrats have had enough! We disavow the Progressives - who's poor judgement and even poorer manners bring disapproval to the Party among Independents and other Traditional Democrats. They Push Push, and then Push Back at critical moments in the endorsement process, when NOBODY ON THIS SIDE IS PUSHING!! We are simply going about conducting ourselves in the manner that is professional, honorable and consistent with our by laws while the thugs rationalize their misconduct as "politics." When the Polls show voter disapproval, it is attributed to the Democrats, yet the PROGRESSIVE Forces are the culprits. Liberal Goons, out for themselves with utter disregard for the women whose interests they violate, hide behind the Democratic Party Skirt, failing to take ownership of their brute abuse of our great Party. They only call themselves DEMOCRATS when attempting to FORCE State Committee Women like myself to support only endorsed candidates despite the violation of rules by which those endorsements were conferred. Democrats are losing face while the chameleons revert conveniently to calling themselves "progressives" whose stupidity is never assessed by name at the polls.
The provisions for gender equity in the party's bylaws are intended to eliminate the blockades denying Women opportunities to advance in leadership positions as males provide each other. Until something more respectable than less than 15% representation by Women is achieved in elected offices, the men of the party must school their progressive upstart and organized labor colleagues in the ethics of Party Conduct. Women comprise more than 50% of the Voting Party Membership.
Jack Panella, received the County Chairs support to force Theresa Sarmina out of the running for the Supreme Court nomination. He went on to violate our sense of integrity by leveling Joan Orie- Melvin as a Politician instead of a qualified Judicial Candidate, thus diminishing the Supreme Court of the Commonwealth and himself in the process. It was disgusting. Women (D) made a point of telling me that they weren't excited by the Democratic Nominee and had no intention of voting until they heard the Panella ads bashing Orie-Melvin. In response, they went to the polls and voted for the woman, with utter determination to send the men of the Democratic Party an emphatic message.
Obviously, the men are ducking the message.
As I understand the Ethic of the Party; the Caucus should re-direct male candidates who seek to overpower a qualified woman. http://www.newstatesman.com/north-america/2008/05/obama-clinton-vote-usa-media It's a tough call, but no tougher than what the women endured during the 2008 Primary. We were repeatedly cut off and denied voice by men asserting that 'She Lost! Get Over It!" Well, we ATE IT, but we're absolutely not over it: we learned a cruel lesson we won't pretend isn't happening over and over.
The Men who wish to run against Qualified Women in the Democratic Primaries need to get this message: It's NOT YOUR TIME!!! Until Women enjoy a more respectable percentage of representation, we absolutely cannot expect them to support Democratic Candidates or the Democratic Party. It's neither good politics nor good business to continually stiff them. We come into State Committee meetings expecting to be respected and treated as equals. We expect our colleagues to observe a standard of professional and political leadership. The routine "Progressive" pivot to thuggish bullying is outrageous! At last Summer's NetRoots Nation Convention, I watched in real time as Adam Green sucked the honor out of Orlando Congressman Alan Grayson with a blatant "push back" on his gentle advice to treat adversaries with respect. Since then, Grayson has devolved into a virtual "BeatleJuice" - obnoxious and unlikely to win re-election. I would be very surprised if the business-savvy district that is home to Mickey Mouse returns his crude tactics to Congress for a second term.
To communicate to you how arrogant this is, I simply mention that Dave Fowler actually expected to force me to vote in support of the deal he cut with the County Chairs during the 2009 Judicial endorsement meeting, while he was informing me of the complaint he was taking to the Executive Committee because I "broke the rules!" Panella's celebrity endorser was a freaking PRIZE FIGHTER - Jesus Christ! Can you get any more heavy handed? - he should not have even been on the ticket! He was the star atop the Christmas Tree of gifts the guys of the Democratic Party have been handing themselves after pushing, shoving and generally intimidating the qualified women. If my own husband, son or grandson were to conduct such a campaign of arrogance, I'd pull the plug on them instantly. Such demeanor guarantees poverty and is degenerate.
During reorganization, 'At Large' seats are accorded the various caucuses based on the differential between the number of male and female county chairs elected in the 67 Counties. The disparity is huge; if even 10 women participate in the County Chairs Caucus, I'd be impressed. Twice during this term, Shannon Bilger and T.J. denied the women of Butler County access to the ballot for replacing resigning chairs - first Mariotti then Fowler - by insisting that they be replaced by males to preserve the gender balance of the State Committee. What Bullshit!
Dave Winkler, former BCDC Sergeant At Arms, advised a lack of quorum as required by our by laws. He was dismissed after Kreiss commandeered himself into the chair. The paid staff of the State Committee refused to hear his complaint. I had appealed to Jack Hanna, Chair of the ad hoc committee empanelled to review the bylaws regarding replacement elections about this, and he admitted he ignored my email. He told me it was politically "not astute" for me to try to run for replacement County Chair so soon after a complaint against me had been heard. If this is the position of the County Chairs Caucus, and the paid staff of the State Democratic Committee, the message is specific and hostile to women. We know perfectly well how the funds are raised to cover those salaries. Fadia and the young women employed in the respective regions treat accomplished women like myself as though we were retards who have wandered in off the street and don't understand the power structure of the State Committee.
I cannot tell you the number of women who spoke emotionally to this callous indifference to their membership rights both at the hearing and afterwards to me privately. They consistently used that word: "Bullshit!" with all the anger and trembles of emotion one can imagine. Initially they'd say: "Let the younger guys just take over," intending to withhold their votes, energy and interest. By withdrawing from meaningful participation in party activities, they felt they could salvage their dignity from an organization that, in practice, just takes their money and uses them for their free labor. When their ingrained political sense takes over, however, they are determined to stand up for themselves by making future meetings very uncomfortable for the men of the State Committee by forcing the gender issue.
