Gloria Steinem... still alive?

McCain was, in fact, a prisoner of war for around five-and-a-half years, during which time he was tortured repeatedly. Referring to his time in captivity, Steinem said with bewilderment, “I mean, hello? This is supposed to be a qualification to be president? I don’t think so.”
Steinem’s broader argument was that the media and the political world are too admiring of militarism in all its guises.

“I am so grateful that she [Clinton] hasn’t been trained to kill anybody. And she probably didn’t even play war games as a kid. It’s a great relief from Bush in his jump suit and from Kerry saluting.”

To the Observer, Steinem insisted that “from George Washington to Jack Kennedy and PT-109 we have behaved as if killing people is a qualification for ruling people.”
Other Clinton proxies, notably Black Entertainment Television founder Bob Johnson and a New Hampshire campaign chair, Billy Shaheen, have generated controversies with their criticisms of Obama. By contrast, Steinem told me the Illinois senator was “an intelligent, well-intentioned person.” She added: “I would like very much to see him be president for eight years after Hillary has been president for eight years.” (the rest)

"Ruling" people? Is this what an American election is all about? Who gets to rule people? Thats the problem with democrats (liberals). They want to "rule"...tell people what to do and how to do it (and how often).

Not my words.

She has fallen into the old Betty Freidan (sp?) zone...alive, but irrelevant. Now BF is dead...and still irrelevant. Amazing how fast most turned against the 'militant' feminist icons! I think Hillary must be incredibly desperate to trot Stenham out in Texas of all places. It isn't like she (HC) needs help butching up her image here. And GS represents just about every negative imaginable for HC's image. Was also amazing how the HC campaign tried their best to minimize GS' exposure!
And for thye record, i'd vote for G Washington anytime....;)

“I am so grateful that she [Clinton] hasn’t been trained to kill anybody. And she probably didn’t even play war games as a kid. It’s a great relief from Bush in his jump suit and from Kerry saluting.”

Really?
