Jenny Sanford has demonstrated exactly what a woman scorned is capable of. Leaking emails to the press, notifying the press of his disappearance, AFTER throwing him out. Releasing a bizarre statement which actually makes her look crazy.....Yes, she's one smart lady.

PS Veronic Lario is a floozy who also had an affair, you may want to read up on her a bit, before putting her on a pedestal.

PPS Should the staff at Salon all be fired for writing about the importance of diversity and then hiring all middle class white female writers for a girls club column like BS ? Hypocrisy !

There seems to be an almost desperate attempt to paint this pseudo revolution as being led by women. What's with that? Other than the fact that we have all seen Neda....or not, is the fact that women are participating at all so unique that the feminist echo chamber must extrapolate this story way out of proportion ? Yes women have been part of movements throughout Iranian history, but given their current standing, obviously these revolutions have not been led by women. So I salute the Iranian women standing up for their rights, but why does the feminist narrative try to make it something it's not ?

What possible scenario could the Supreme Court have arrived at that would have prevented Glenn from writing this column?

So what ? I don't think anyone feels badly when a marriage ends and there are no kids involved. Two people go their own separate ways, and move on with their lives. The problem that most pro-family people, like myself, have with divorce is the devastation on the kids. And how ridiculously stacked laws are against men when this occurs. There is just a mountain of data that shows how important fathers are to their children, and yet feminists continue to be in complete denial, because they want to continue to make selfish decisions about what's in their own best interests, instead of what's best for the children.

Obama thinks the solution to single motherhood is to lecture fathers. How clueless. The solution to single motherhood is promoting equal rights for fathers. But then again, none of this is news. Feminists like TCF recognize this, part of the tip off is the absolute radio silence on the issue. Where is the honest debate on fatherhood, on joint custody, women choosing single motherhood. These topics are either not discussed at all, or covered strictly from the feminist prism. Any honest debate would shatter the glass house that is feminism.

Ignorance is no excuse for bravado. Apparently you are one of those types that require your cheating wife to dump your ass and take the kids, before you recognize the lack of rights you have. I hope that doesn't have to happen for you to get educated.

"But isn't it also upsetting that these women -- most of them baby boomers, who married and began to have kids at the height of second-wave feminism -- bore so much more of the responsibility for child-rearing than their male colleagues?"

Only in the feminist echo chamber.

"Is it not sad that female staffers have to reach menopause before they can put on a stylish outfit and still be treated like professionals?"

Disagree with the premise, but it does make for good feminist rhetoric.

"Does the generation of women that is just beginning to have children have a prayer of raising a family without making major career sacrifices?"

A small percentage...maybe 10% of the new generation of women will have a father that is willing to equally share the child rearing ....of course with the number of single mothers exploding, that number is probably dropping.

"And will their male peers finally share this work-life balance dilemma?"

In a word, No. Vast majorities of fathers (and mothers) still believe that women should be the primary caregivers for children.... I'm not sure what is going to change this worldwide view. As feminists continue to tear down marriage and the nuclear family, look for this number to continue to shrink. And with the growth of MRA's, legislation that attempts to make government a daddy replacement will no longer pass unnoticed... and will mostly rollback to actually give fathers equal rights.

I really thought this update was a tribute to Al Franken aka Stuart Smalley, finally making it to the Senate. This is serious ? Dear God !

Just remember Kate,

You're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it, people like you !

It should be obvious why male politicians have affairs and female politicians don't (that we know of). Male social standing is a key ingredient for female attraction, and politicians of both genders have high social standing, for awhile anyway. For male attraction, female social standing holds no additional attractive properties. So there it is....simple. The real question is, who cares ?

Actually, my unemployment benefits would be higher than the actual income for many. Loss of job, doesn't necessarily mean loss of all income....not to mention the financial cushion that I already have in place. Let's not pretend that single income families head straight to the poor house after job loss.

The other attractive quality that Sarah Palin has, is the fact that she drives feminists crazy. The fact that Sarah Palin, or someone like her will most likely be elected president before a feminist will, drives the feminist echo chamber absolutely bonkers. I have to admit a certain satisfaction in watching this play out. No matter the player, family values will always be more popular than misandry, even if some cannot practice what they preach.

For your satisfaction.....the fact that TCF criticizes Steinem isn't really the point, unless your only keeping score in BS. I think the larger point is the Feds have announced Ruth Madoff won't be charged.....so there you have it, the female sentencing discount in full view. Maybe we should ask Broadsheet to call for her arrest ?

The female sentencing discount does not require 100% adherence to be real....I know you know that.
