1. I love how the Hill-People run to Fox. Do they think that faux will still be their pal if they take
the nom? How naive are they?

3. Is this sarcasm?
A serious question. Men don't scream?

Of course she can't. I'm just stunned she didn't work race riot into the post.

57. No, I really do. "Race riot" was a giveaway.
Certain DUers have become well known for flogging their signature memes.

21. hahaha. what the fuck are you talking about?
thats such a ridiculous question.

i have never thought of "screaming" as a gender specific adjective.

30. I Made A HUGE Mistake
when I referred to women as ladies.

Fredda slapped me down but good. It's getting impossible to say anything about women without it being taken as sexist.

I certainly don't take offense to being called a gentleman, which is the male equivalent of lady.

man, some of you females on this site are an embarrassment to the rest of us with this constant sexism bullshit. If you represent "feminism," no wonder the third wave wants to have no part of the second one.

33. Ever hear of the "Dean Scream" mantra?
It was played endlessly on radio and television four years ago.
And Dean is a man.

37. you better get out in those streets for Hillary asap, or her career in the Senate is over
She has proven herself to be an utterly worthless candidate and deserves no sympathy for her present condition.

She has repreatedly shown that she values her self interests above her Party.

She is no Democrat.

42. Yes. Screaming. S-C-R-E-A-M-I-N-G. Talking loudly in an excited fashion.
Meant in a derogatory, hyperbolic sense. See: Bill O'Reilly, Pat Buchanan, Howard Dean, and Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

Or must I add this word to my growing list of English language terms that are now inexplicably gender-loaded?

and the earthquake in China, and the cyclone in Burma.

I don't care what that washed-up has been is whining about.
