An associate of Jerry Brown calls Meg Whitman a "w****" over …

… that was inadvertently taped by a voicemail machine (audio below), an associate of Democratic gubernatorial candidate
The Background
Just in case you need a refresher:
California Attorney General Jerry Brown, the state’s Democratic candidate for governor, left a phone message in early September for a union official whose endorsement he was seeking, but apparently forgot to hang up!
Because a lively discussion between him and some staffers afterward is caught on tape. And either Brown or a staffer — there is some dispute — uses the word "w****" to describe his Republican rival Meg Whitman.
The recording, obtained by the Los Angeles Times from the L.A. Police Union, is muffled and hard to hear. But the word "w****" is definitely thrown around several times at the notion of Whitman making a special deal with union officials to protect their pensions.
"Do we want to put an ad out? … That I have been warned if I crack down on pensions, I will be – that they’ll go to Whitman, and that’s where they’ll go because they know Whitman will give ‘em, will cut them a deal, but I won’t," Brown said.
Sadly and somewhat surprisingly, similar misogynistic comments have recently been coming on a regular basis, and nearly all of them were from progressive bastions and liberal women.
Stephanie Miller
Last month, liberal talk show host Stephanie Miller laughed uproariously when a female guest on her show said that if she ever met Michelle Malkin,
“I would kick [her] right in the nuts, and warned, Wear a cup, lady”.
Democratic Rep. Janis Baird Sontany of Nashville
Referring to her female GOP colleagues she said,
“You have to lift their skirts to find out if they are women. You sure can’t find out by how they vote”.
Cinta Wilson – Salon
“Sarah Palin may be a lady, but she ain’t no woman” and went on to say about Palin, “the Alaska governor as a Christian Stepford wife in a s*** librarian costume and the GOPs hardcore pornographic centerfold spread”.
The Huffington Post
“Meg Whitman is Bush in a skirt”.
The Washington Post
Ann Coulter is often referred to as Mann-coulter on political blogs in an effort to de-feminize her, and MSNBCs Keith Olberman once referred to Malkin as
“a mashed-up bag of meat with lipstick”.
Gene Lyons – Salon
In a Salon column last month headlined “Forget about the tea party what about the crumpets?” Gene Lyons wrote that,
“The most entertaining aspect of the 2010 election season has been the rise of the right-wing cuties political celebrities whose main qualification is looking terrific on television. From where I sit, in a comfortable chair in front of the tube, the GOP Cupcake Factor has enlivened an otherwise dreary campaign season”.
And the cuties in question are a former Governor (Palin), a current Congresswoman (Michelle Bachmann) and a current Senatorial candidate (Christine O’Donnell.)
And Lyons take on O’Donnell was this:
“Everybody knows some poor fool who married a woman like that”.
Lyons is a truly horrible excuse for a human being!
The Same Respect
Regardless of political inclination, and whether or not you agree with the above ladies of the right, they have the same right as every other woman to be treated with respect and dignity, and every time anyone liberal, conservative, man or a woman engages in sexist smears of this type, all women lose and so does society!.
