Last
night, there was a thread about an email sent to Republicans. In the
email, Jenna and Barbara Bush talked about the election and why people
should vote for their father. The email was written in a childish way.
As many Du'ers found, it sounded as though they were twelve years old.
My
question is this. Comparing these two to Chelsea Clinton, I see
something other than genetics at work. Chelsea was a role model of what
good liberals want their daughters to be. That is, liberals strive for
their daugthers to be complete people. Their daughters should be
intelligent, dignified and act in such a manner. The Bush daughters to
me seem like they represent what the Republicans think of women. Women
are lesser human beings. They can't be trusted to think of their own
valid points. They never get past speaking in childish terms, even post
college. The girls are just that: girls. They don't stand as
intelligent beings one would actually listen too. Even looks come into
play. Chelsea dressed with dignity and I thought she was beautiful
because of it. The Republicans constantly called her ugly. Yet the Bush
twins dress like kids off to the prom and they are thought of as
beautiful. Are Republicans that afraid of women? |
