Ma'am...Next, you guys will be wanting the TV controls, and there goes all my exercise...So what are you trying to do???Turn my right arm into a tooth pick???Who is that going to impress????Let me tell you the problem, and I think Cicero said it: As soon as a woman becomes your equal she become your master... Well sha... Situation back to normal; so this time, leave it that way... If men do what they do 90% of the time to get the girl, then let the girl do, so she can be got, because she will do it better, and in the correct order, and not to an unnecessary degree... I don't know if it is anatomy or psychology, but I think if I thought more like many women I would not have to think nearly as much, that stuff would make sense that now I must make sense of... When women ran the world as once they did, they did so better because they had a sense of consequences, that the children they birthed might be fed into the fire of war if people could not get along... It is not that they could not thirst for blood, but this sense of consequences, and the fact that political power flowed through the weaker sex even when it was held by the men meant that the least in society had the means to protect themselves from the idiots... And it everywhere has saved mankind...Thanks...Sweeney

I find most womens' rants about Rendell's silly, tasteless remarks to be thinly disguised sexism. Too often, the underlying premise is that the burdons associated with being a wife and mother are somehow greater than those borne by husbands/ fathers. Rubbish. A very wise man once observed that while women have the most difficult job in the world because they have to bear children, men have the second toughest because they have to hear about it - for the rest of their lives.

I am a husband and father who took both jobs seriously, and did a lot of single parenting precisely because I deemed it proper to support my wife's life ambition to be an educator, mentor and counselor. She was gone a lot. I can't recall ever complaining that my wife never took me anywhere, or that we just did not seem to "talk" any morel. For her part, she was generous enough never to complain because I did not know or care what colors the walls or carpeting were, or that I am not a very good cook. I do floors and windows though.

Lighten up gals. Life is too short to keep looking for things about which to be annoyed.

Ma'am; ... Maybe I should say, that I do not disagree with the Governor's conclusion... So often; people in Government, or high up in any formal hierarchy are there because they cannot relate...If they could relate they would not need power... Ask why most people do not seek power over others.... Ask why most people don't seek out the military, or the police, or the IRS... Most people find they have all the authority they need in life as human beings to relate to other human beings, and it is only those wanting in some detail of their personality who have to be elected or appointed or anointed... We can all have influence... We all make a difference, and we all make history... But it is wrong to admire people in public office for anything, because even if they do what they do from the best of motives they must still put their personal lives on hold, and what if their familys needs them??? But clearly; many are simply driven for power, crooked and deformed by the desire for power, when, to be a human being requires that no one be a master or a slave....As a citizen, I can give no more authority than I have, and I give none of my power.... If government has come to represent power above the norm, it is power that has been robbed out of people's lives, and those who seek to hold that power withhold it from its rightful owners, and they are then no better than thieves, so they should have no lives, and they should be cursed, and they are cursed in the same fashion that all people do wrong out of ignorance are cursed....Look at those who seek formal power with sympathy and pain because they are a danger to us, and a curse to themselves.... So what if all our relationships are structured by forms??? We all need to relate, and to learn to relate as human beings, and as equals, informally.... Thanks... Sweeney
