    Again, that's stupid Jim, leftist women don't compromise or get things done any more that right wing men. Race and gender has nothing to do with capability, intelligence, free thinking or lack of. Neither is "life experience" a standard for ability. And what makes you think women aren't as corruptible as anybody else? Let them get more seats and power and see what they do...

      I needed a good laugh this morning, Jim. Thanks.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            Life experience also is different in respect to:

            Where you grew up.
            The neighborhood you lived in.
            Your hobbies and interest.
            If you’re a veteran or not.
            Your age.
            What high school you went to.
            What income level your parents were.
            Etc

            Why liberals ignore this is beyond me. Mine are a good deal different growing up in Southern California than someone that grew up in upstate New York. It’s just as racist/sexist to assume all white people are the same or to assume all men are the same as it is to assume all blacks like fried chicken or all women can’t wait to get married.

              JimL you should listen to LPOT since she is a woman, and as you said:

                No, she is the wrong kind of woman...

                  Here's how screwed up your thinking is --- in the other thread, you're blaming a REPUBLICAN for giving an opportunity to a DEMOCRAT WOMAN to be elections chief of Broward County --- she screwed up really badly, but it's not HER fault, it's Jeb Bush's fault for believing in her. Fortunately, Jeb has come to his senses and is calling for her removal.

                    The irony is that you don't seem to realize just how sexist and misogynistic this kind of white knighting really is.

                        I don't care what you think it is, I'll go by my own experience, and in general, women are less crooked and more capable of governing than are men. Call it what you like! That doesn't mean men can't be competent and ethical as well, take B. Obama for instance. But then look at this current President and his new republican congress and cabinet. It doesn't get any more corrupt than that.

                          Again Jim, that makes no sense. Are women a different species? Perhaps they just haven't been in power to the degree that men have, therefore less opportunity to be corrupt.

                            Than you must hang out with some questionable characters because I’ve had great male and female leaders and terrible ones. Percentage wise seem to be about the same.
