Poll question: Should Saudi women drive and vote? |
|
I was watching Fucker Carlson, you know, the guy with the bow tie. He was going apeshit that women in Saudi Arabia should drive and vote. Of course he was referring to Karen Hughes' attempt to be a liberal in a conservative country. Funny how that works. So, here is my poll.
Should Saudi women drive and vote?

Agreed. Doesn't W get tired of parading "his" women around the world, when in essence, they accomplish nothing? Big tax drain on working Americans.

What do you tell a women with two black eyes? Nothing, you already told her twice! Of course they should drive and vote!!!!!! What do you think this is? The 13th century? Or the Bush administration? God, how far into the past do we have to go? I can't even believe anyone is asking the question! What the fuck kind of time warp are we in? In my experience, women can read a vocal inflection or a minute change in facial expression and use that info to interpret what you are actually saying. I don't know any men that can do that, at least not consciously. Women, by far, are the most advanced of the species. This comes from a guy.

Of course they should be able to vote.
Thinking otherwise is plainly wrong.

10. Maybe the Saudis should practice child slavery |
|
That's none of my business.
I'm a little surprised and a bit irritated at this bizarre cultural relatavism regarding women's rights and humans rights in general.

Not into imposing our nation's will on others. Particularly at this pathetic point in our history. That would be cruel and unusual.

14. The question should be phrased "should they have the ability to |
|
drive and vote" not "should they drive and vote."
If you'd phrased it that way, I would have voted Yes. The way you phrased it places them in another no-choice situation which just happens to be the far opposite end of the spectrum from where they are now.
They should have the right to choose whether or not they wish to drive or vote.
