Diary of a Madwoman

This madwoman, a 40-something mom of two children, is here to tell you a thing or two about life when you're an overweight, perimenopausal (she has pills for when she laughs too hard, cream for when hair grows where it shouldn’t and patches to prevent hot flashes and aggravation.) She’s claustrophobic, agoraphobic, insomniatic, diabetic, stubborn anxious, hypothyroid, chronic sinusitis, allergenic, Fibromyalgia, asthmatic, migraine queen with two kids (both teens, one with special needs), four INDOOR dogs, a Cockatoo, two ferrets, a husband and PMDD. Why tell you all of this? TO make you feel better of course!

I’m disappointed in all of you!!

I could kick Obama’s butt for even thinking about running for President!

Women…all of us women are still the low “man” on the totem pole. We don’t have equal anything. Hell, women have a hard time making people believe that they've been stalked, raped or abused by their husbands. (Okay, that’s a little intense, but it’s true.)

So, here we had Hillary. Hillary was going to be our President. A WOMAN was going to finally show the old boys club what the female gender is capable of. And what happens? All of you go and screw it up by voting for…I can’t believe I have to say this…for…men! You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Just because she's a woman.....

Just because she's a woman doesn't mean all women should vote for her. Maybe she didn't win because she's a woman, but maybe it was her views and opinions!

Isn't voting for someone because they are a woman

just as bad as voting against them because they are a woman? I'm sorry, but I am not a sheep, and I'll vote for whom I choose because I think they are worthy of my vote thank you, not because I want to further the cause of getting a woman in office.

satire?

Is this supposed to be a joke? Maybe it’s just too subtle. Otherwise – it’s most simpleminded, hypocritical rant yet – and that’s really saying something. How can you rail against sexism in the same sentence where you claim that you’re against Obama because he’s a man? …it’s just a bad attempt at satire, right?
