I guess in your way of thinking, any right wing group that actually teaches bigotry and dishonesty is not accoutable. So Focus on the Family is not responsible as a group for their hate mongering? Don't bother the Aryan Nations, just focus on individual Neo Nazis? Really?

a HUGE chunk of that article was completely new to me
I'd like to see these folks come forward, but without the stench of the odious Gloria Allred attached to them. All she would do is destroy their credibility.

(9,464 posts)Heard about this one months ago. But if it finally gets a lot of media attention, that would be great.

(15,189 posts)We should start a rumor that Rmoney will enforce Mormon Law. Because from what I read, Rmoney is just as bad as the crazies in the middle east over women's issues. Not married with kids equals not wearing your burka.

(111 posts)Totally confirms every weird vibe I've felt coming off that dude. Missing a big chunk of psyche, methinks - like his empathy/sympathy button simply doesn't exist at a gut level - it's all show, like a well-trained seal, barking for fish.

(340 posts)See anything from Alred.
Besides, as unlikeable and obnoxious as she is do we WANT to see anything from her? Do we want the President associated with anything she stirs up? We are going to win this thing (God Willing), lets not make a move that screws it up.

(45,319 posts)She's one of the most successful attornies in her field, she's done many remarkable and important things in her career that others lacked the skill and conviction to accomplish. The only people who dislike her are already voting for Willard 'stay home and make dinner' Romney.

I embrace Gloria Allred, and she can bring nothing but honesty and transparency to the Party. People who denounce her should wiki her and her life's work.
And, as BNW said, I also know how to spell her name.

(2,345 posts)Or so... it just amazes me that so much is written about this guy and none of it seems to matter. He could be the Confirmed Anti-Christ and I still think 45% of America would still vote for him.
Why?

(64 posts)some here have said it's been out for awhile. There are many folks like myself, who are just tuning in. I have never heard of this before, what a heartless man. Wow.

(6,407 posts)Everyone should send this around to everyone you know. This will end Romney's female vote, whatever exists of it.
