When In Damascus, Do As The Demasculated Do

Brian Ward on noted feminists Nancy Pelosi and Betty “Rubble” McCollumn’s be-hijabbed visits to Greater Islam:

[T]here is something amusing about feminists like Pelosi and McCollum merrily donning the hijab, which has the primary purpose of hiding one’s femaleness, lest you enflame the attentions of men. If that’s what they want to do, fine. When in a patriarchy, do as the patriarchs tell you, I guess.

Check it out.

  1. Mitch would rather see Pelosi in a thong. Strictly to advance the cause of feminism, dontcha know.

  2. And when Laura Bush donned the scarf when she visited a Mosque, I said to myself, now there’s a woman who knows her place in a mans world.

  3. Slightly different contexts, doncha think?

    I’m mildly agog at how the two of you allegedly-productive members of society manage to be the two most-prolific commenters on my lil’ ol’ site.

  4. Mitch slandered: “I’d say the pigeons have pretty well rogered you.”

    Of course you would. Much as you’d also say that up is down, black is white and Kermit is intelligent.

    Well my friend, Angryclown’s circus is touring parts of the benighted American midwest next week, making contributions inconvenient, if not impossible. Angryclown will therefore observe a self-imposed BAN on supplying your readers with his nuggets of truth, justice and the Angryclown Way.

    Next week your comments section will run the gamut from “Me too!” all the way to “Oh Mitch, you’re so right!” A mind-numbingly tedious wingnut theme and variations.

    What will you do? How will you live? These are not matters of Angryclown’s concern.

    Beware what you wish for, Mitch! For now, to paraphrase the most beloved president of your party: You won’t have Angryclown to kick around anymore!

  5. “Well my friend, Angryclown’s circus is touring parts of the benighted American midwest next week,”

    Translation: Most of my neighbors have slapped restraining orders on me, making it hard to go to the local news stand to pick up the new issue of Mother Jones magazine. So I have to leave town for a while until enough of them expire so I can move about somewhat freely.

  6. Personally I think Hillary! in a thong would do much more to advance the cause of feminism than Bela Pelosi, but what di I know? I’s jest a ignant yokel.

  7. Have a good time, angryclown!
    *waves*
    I will miss you!
    *cries bitter tears*
    Especially the kicking… 😉

  8. Angryclown, I must say, constantly referring to yourself in the third person grows old rather quickly. But what does Jeff McAwesome know.
