My wife just told me her daughter (from 1st marriage) and husband,both staunch Republicans,

are voting for Bredesen!! A lot of Rs helped elect him Governor. That, coupled with the proliferation of Bredesen signs in this deep red Blackburn district are making me feel very positive about our chances in November!

You do know what SOB stands for, don't you? You might wish to reconsider your choice of epithet.

"Son of a bitch". And the word you are looking for is "despicable".

You are calling a woman a man and calling her mother a "bitch" (a female DOG), on a progressive forum.

Do you respect gender identity and have respect for mothers?

Added on edit: Sorry redstateblues. I misread and thought it was pepsidog responding.

taking the time to admonish me. I don’t need to defend myself against your absurd accusations. As a father, attorney and former prosecutor, I have and continue to support female rights and causes in with contributions to female candidates, volunteering and pro bono representation of female domestic violence victim. It’s snowflakes like you who foment discord among Dems with your self-righteous indignation. Don’t you have something more productive to do than police DU posts looking for mysogynistic posts? How dare you, I will put my record against yours any day of the week. Get a life creep

"deeply wrong" after a mere admonishment, which is a mild thing.

"snowflake" while you are over-reacting to an admonishment.

"foment discord" after I tried to strengthen support for women.

"self-righteous" despite it having nothing to do with me nor did I invoke any claims about myself.

"creep"

You had a chance to lead and this is what you came up with.
