How about this for disgusting...

Check out the closing paragraph of this article.

"When I met him, I wanted to know what happens if you interrupt and challenge a general," said Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton of Wisconsin, who was traveling with the general this week. "I didn't want to be party to the election of one more defensive, arrogant male. What I found was that it's part of his nature to understand the lives of women."



OK, so when do we hear a male politician ever saying something like:



"When I met her, I wanted to know what happens if you interrupt and challenge a feminist," said Lt. Gov. Jim Smith of Wisconsin, who was traveling with the candidate this week. "I didn't want to be party to the election of one more defensive, arrogant female. What I found was that it's part of her nature to understand the lives of men.""



Since when did objecting to being interrupted and dealt with in an argumentative fashion become "arrogant" and "defensive"? Oh, since the person is a lowly male and the instigator the intentionally boorish Ms. Lawton.
