Mo Dowd and breast bombs
Do you think the searchers at the airport are a bit twisted and the law is a bit too crazy. In this case I am with Bill Maher we need profiling! Read Ms Dowd's op-ed piece here http://www.nytimes.com/2004/11/25/opinion/25dowd.html?oref=login&hp

1. Good more women journalists should complain
about this intrusive garbage.

This is sexual molustation -- probably video taped and juicey clips shared with perverts.

Many women are afraid to complain -- afraid that they will be treated even worse by the Government. Just like many women are afraid to report rape.

Flying is bad enough -- but force women to expose themselves -- and to be questioned by ass-hole -- about their breasts is unacceptable.

Women need to band together and sue the ass off the men who thought up this lastest bull shit.

Any damn male who tries to defend this practice -- go to .. . ..

2. Now that they affect HER
Mo Do finally realizes that the Bush policies are ineffectual and annoying.
Prior to that, the only thing she could manage to muster outrage about was Hilary's alleged gift registry.

Sorry she feels degraded, and I certainly don't approve of cretins mauling women at airports, but Dowd helped make this bed, and we all have to lie in it.

3. Mo is no Bush fan
She is known in Bush circles as "The lizard woman" I read her all the time and find her anything but ANTI Bush. While she might have criticized the Clintons in the past, she wrote books about Bushworld. The favorite op-ed writer of Bill Maher can't be too bad.

7. Gosh, in 2000 the only thing she got worked up about was Al Gore
You know, he lied about inventing the Internet, he had Naomi Klein advise him to wear earth tones, etc. She gave George W. Bush an absolute free pass. I certainly hope she's happy with her choice now.

10. 5% of ports, what percent of BRAs are being inspected?
A statistial comparison is needed to determine if their is a bias.

BUT I have no doubt that Asscroft thought of boobs as being more dangerous.

11. Legal grabbing
Edited on Fri Nov-26-04 06:00 PM by Niccolo_Macchiavelli
sounds like a dreamjob for the average grunt-free-ape. I wonder what my sister will tell me when she visits westcoast this spring. (ignorant bitch)
