Those People-Loving LiberalsThis
is hilarious:
I hate living in the suburbs. No, really, I hate it with a white hot passion. It’s because of the soccer moms. Of course, not all moms in the suburbs are soccer moms. Some of them are into LaCrosse. They might be working or stay at home. They run around in plush minivans and Lexus SUVs.
Read it all; she comes off like the woman in
Main Street. It just goes on and on, and one part in particular caught my attention:
Is it wrong for an adult male to talk to a girl of 17 on the internet? A suburban soccer mom will tell you yes. Unequivocally. It is wrong for anyone who the parent does not personally know to talk to their children.
You know how it is; the relative ages matter. Is it wrong for an 18-year-old guy to talk to a high school girl? Nope. Is it wrong and creepy for a 47-year-old guy to be chatting up bobby-soxers? You bet your life.
And that's where, amazingly, she's going with this. All that sophomoric I hate suburbia angst is leading up to a defense of Anthony Weiner:
Oh, please, Nancy. Lay off already. Haven’t you done enough damage to women by tolerating the disgusting and over the top misogynism of the 2008 presidential campaign? Please, don’t do us any more favors. The suburban security frenzy is way out of control and ruining our children’s childhoods. Don’t add more fuel to the fire with these ridiculous calls for Weiner to resign. He’s an immature guy who needs some behavioral modification. He’s not a fricking predator.
