Young mothers should be encouraged to drop off their unwanted babies somewhere they will be cared for like Brett Kavanaugh’s house or Susan Collins

because of “safe harbor” laws. She is an idiot. She is also an unqualified hack and a religious fanatic.

Haranguing someone into quitting their job is right up their alley so we should use their language to express our displeasure.

Probably needed to run home and put on some sexy lingerie so her husband could get his rocks off. Serving her Lord and Master, you know. Or maybe she was too busy trotting back and forth to the Rapist's office to offer him a quickie. Still serving her Lord and Master.

Go ahead. Hide my post. I have nothing but contempt for her and her crowd of cultist, fanatic, Christofascist a$$holes.

In her cult the members in general (and women specifically) are to defer to what the church leaders want in matters of importance.

IMNSHO this should have automatically disqualified her, but everyone tiptoed around this issue for fear of appearing “bigoted”, especially since her backers were complaining of religious discrimination even before her confirmation started…

her brain was bound during development, and nothing can remedy it. Not even being around brilliant women who might has sort of inspired some neural activity and or development.

Plenty of DU’s waste their time with me arguing that she actually is intelligent. Maybe in some limited way she is able to express intelligent writings.

But in my observations, it’s just that fake sort of “smarts” that looks good in classes run by nut jobs. And that is the world that she has been formed by.

And before you dismiss me, I am well recognized in my field and listed as a top inventor on many lists put together by business journals, etc.

So, my opinion remains that she is very very stupid. And clearly cruel and evil as well. Masquerading as an educated woman.

Cast a vote entirely predictable by laypersons and don't bother to provide any insight or clarification.

They constantly attacked an unnamed black woman for being unqualified before anyone was named. But nothing about the handmaid's qualifications. She was appointed for this exact reason. Why are DUers surprised?

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
