Bill Maher, George Lopez and the War on Women -- Why Are Attacks on Conservative Women Given Just a Shrug?
It takes a really weak, insecure, and spineless man to attack a woman on television. It takes an even weaker feminist movement to play down such attacks.
In a recent episode of Somebody, Please Notice Me, also known as Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO, the shows host may have hit rock bottom with his latest rhetorical bomb by referring to Sarah Palin with a vulgarity exceedingly offensive to women. Far more noticeable, and certainly more noteworthy, was the backhanded defenseof Palin from radical feminists and their clearly misnamed organizations.
National Organization for Women communications director Lisa Bennett, after days of silence, sounded more as if she didnt want to be bothered: Sorry, but we cant defend Palin or even Hillary Clinton from every sexist insult hurled at them in the media.
Several weeks ago, MSNBCs Chris Matthews attacked Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) with another derogatory slur in reference to a harmless geographical gaffe she made about American history. Only crickets from the radical feminists. (A few weeks later Matthews found himself geographically-challenged when he said the Panama Canal was in Egypt.)
