Americans are stupid sometimes....

(of course, so am I, but that comes later)

OK, my current pet peeve? I am SO sick and tired of hearing Americans go on and on and ON about how freakin' wonderful it is to "just have a woman running for President!!! We've come SUCH a long way!!!!"

Bull Hockey Sticks!!!!

Wake up and smell the catfood, people. We are very nearly the LAST industrialized, non-third world, non-theocratic state to have a female head of state! A (very) small list of nations that have ALREADY had a female leader: India, Israel, Ireland, Switzerland, East Germany, Pakistan, Great Britain, China, Finland, the Phillipines, Argentina.

We've only come a long way because we started so incredibly far BEHIND everyone else, and making teen-einey little baby steps while the rest of the world is leaping ahead is NOT something to be proud of.

Hmph.
