FYI: for the historically challenged, in my user name "Votes For Women," "Votes" is a noun. please o

open a history book, and stop proving yourselves to be the naive, historically ignorant Obama supporters you are. i'm accepting apologies.

:yoiks:

Lifes to short to get that worked up.

Here Ill take one for the team.

I apologize for all jerks, no matter who they support, who have got you in a bunch.

You think someone hits 1000+ in 16 weeks by posting thoughtful, insightful stuff?

On edit:
Ooops ... that was supposed to be to the post beneath you. It's late.

That wasn't directed at me?

as an answer to the question of why she used one of her three posts.

:shrug:

more are probably thinking it. just goes to show how the whole history of women in this country is treated as nothing but a footnote in the public schools.

More caps, less craps. That's my motto.

statements about me voting "based on genitalia."

but who else could it be?

You can't expect anything positive to happen when you act like a jerk, insult and condescend all in one sentence and then in the next one have the temerity to ask for an apology. You could have made a nice post explaining your name and the history of it, instead, you made one that virtually guarantees people will choose to fight with you rather than look it up. And I've taken several feminist classes, studied women's history both in school and on my own, and I don't even know what it is off the top of my head, that doesn't make me historically challenged because I don't know something that is relatively obscure. Now it probably is a shame that it's obscure, but that's the point, I guess. Hey I'm a Blackfeet Indian, why don't I just whip out some obscure fact that I feel emotionally connected to like the massacre that killed 200 unarmed Blackfeet women and children, and then when you don't know wtf I'm talking about I'll say that you're a historically ignorant Hillary supporter and then ask for an apology. Either way it's just as unfair as your OP.

wanted women to have the right to vote, which i think we can all agree with. and yeah, i probably don't have a lot of knowledge about Blackfeet Indians, but i know a little more about the Lakota, since i'm living in western SD. mention Russel Means, and i'm right there. :-)

see there you go.

Now if you would have mentioned Seneca Falls or something like that my male denseness could have eventually figured that out. :)

Oh yes, the Lakota, interesting people. I met Sioux runner and Olympic Gold Medalist Billy Mills several years ago, big hero of mine, as I was once a serious athlete. I signed a book for him, and ever since then my favorite arrogant story to tell is that I gave Billy Mills my autograph. :) It's so ridiculous it's hilarious.

with that very slogan from the suffragette movement. I created about 200 or so avatars and sent them to DU, and that was one of them. So, this Obama supporter likes your user name. :)

Doesn't make sense.

"'For those of you ignorant of the history of my username: I named it after one of my son's dirty diapers'

happened about the same time I signed up.

If you hillbots can't get with the program then you are bunch of dirty diaper full of digested bean haters. Oh wait no one asked me. My bad."

Seriously
It became his nickname for a while. First time he ever tried pinto beans.

I'm sorry if somebody flamed you by mistake, that does rather suck.

a history book, and stop proving yourself to be the naive, historically ignorant Clinton supporter you are. I'm accepting apologies.

Not that anyone (excepting the late, great KennedyGuy) has missed this, but as long as we're in the mood to make ourselves the center of attention because of a mild slight in another thread...

(in another thread)

and you expect apologies?

you should be making them.

Seems rather self-important to me....

Because that's all your shit-stirring mini-tirade deserves.
