Barack Obama is a misogynistic pig

From the Chicago Sun-Times:

[Obama’s] office also announced he has chosen Ellen Moran, executive director of EMILY’s List, as director of communications. EMILY’s List raises money for Democratic women candidates who support abortion rights.

MORE: From The New Republic

And Emily’s List didn’t just endorse Hillary over Obama--the group stuck with her to the bitter end, only endorsing Obama on June 6, after Hillary dropped out of the race. Moran’s boss, Ellen Malcolm, publicly smacked the abortion rights outfit NARAL for backing Obama in mid-May, by which time it was clear Hillary would lose. (Malcolm called the move “tremendously direspectful” to Clinton.)

Moran, who donated money to Hillary, even expressed her disappointment about the primary’s outcome to The Progressive this summer: “There are women activists who waited their whole lives to see [a woman president]ju\. and to have this chance and I’m kind of one of them.” (Moran added that she fully supported Obama over McCain.)

Another sign that Obama is just not much of a grudge-bearer.

It appears the Obama supporter who has had the least trouble putting the primary battler behind him is Barack Obama himself. ;)

Not only is Obama a misogynist,so is the feminist blog Shakesville. The very lovely and talented myiq2 discovered this, much to his chagrin yesterday, when he discovered the womyns there happily eviscerating the Alaskan Albatross over Turkeygate. More in sorrow than anger, he dolefully posted his news:

He did not mention in his posting what a thorough smackdown he got from the misogynettes:

Did you really think turkeys came from the freezer section at the supermarket?

City folk are funny!

Do you really not grasp the irony of a governor pardoning a turkey with turkey slaughter behind her?

Oh, Maude. myiq and his PUMA/Palinophile posse are here to lecture everyone here on What Feminism Is Really All About.

(Don’t you love the disingenuous “isn’t this a feminist blog” posturing? I do. Like I love anthrax.)

Aw, what the hell. Popcorn, anyone?

It’s a lovely thread. Highly recommended.

Ah, myiq2xu.  He still has yet to realize that he’s got that number as the numerator, when it should be the denominator.  Then again, I guess that’s precisely what you’d expect.

So he’s actually the lowest common numerator?

So, shouldn’t the “Shakers” be posting a “Sarah Palin Sexism Watch #Infinity” on themselves?  Or has Melissa given up on that one?  I haven’t bothered to remember to check in over there lately. ;)

Nah, she gave it up a while ago. Things are as back to normal there as possible lately.

RELATED: I thought her post about the Vatican forgiving Lennon for his “more popular than Jesus” comment was pretty funny:

Awesome. I’m sure he totally gives a shit.
