Or maybe we are afraid of Bhutto. Afraid of a woman.
We are afraid of radical Islam.

Do we choose between radical Islam who loathe us and will never support us, or a despot who will? It's the devil's choice.

Were you watching Prime Minister Thatcher during her service? If so, you would not say that.

So in your mind, a person must voice significant disagreement to not be considered in one's pocket. Private negotiations are not important.

I don't believe the US really wanted the Falkland War, but she instigated that on her own, by virtue of the Argentine advances.

I watched and listened enough to believe she was nobody's fool, and capable of voicing her concerns without undermining personally the position of a key ally in the public forum.

Regarding how many conservatives feel about powerful women. See: Hillary Clinton.

Are you going Tex on me? What is that supposed to mean?

How conservative feel about a powerful LIBERAL with fanatical ideals who happens to be a woman. Her alleged female gender plays no role in this.

Conservatives love Margaret Thatcher and like Condy Rice. A powerful liberal will always draw the ire of conservatives. Kennedy is NOT a woman, at least not from distant view of the behemoth, and is detested by conservatives as well.

If you wish to play these games, play them honestly.

Who are the powerful GOP female politicians?

Christine Whitman (booted and reviled when she disagreed with Shrub)? Elizabeth Dole (she cracks me up)? Kay Bailey Hutchison (just kidding)?

Ah yes, in your fanciful world, women have an equal place at the table among conservatives.

I'll stick to reality.

What a moving target you are. Did Tex or Lingo infest your keyboard?

In your world, you can equate the fact that conservatives don't currently have any high profile NATIONAL candidates means that conservatives FEAR powerful women. What a crock of shit.

Are you actually laughing as type this bs? How many logical fallacies did you just violate in promoting that specious argument?

Condy Rice has been promoted from time to time, and I could support her or a woman who had some Ron Paul perspectives.

The fact that women aren't currently successful in politicking in conservative politics isn't a statement of fear.

You're psychiatrist. If you presented that diagnosis to your proctors what sort of response would you receive?
