When I ran for governor, a reporter accused me of believing “men are smarter than women.”
Research shows, I wrote in a 20-year-old column, women know and care more about social security, health care and education. When asked, however, about 25 political questions, men were more likely to answer correctly in 15, men and women answered the same in nine, and women answered more correctly than men in only one. I quoted a left-wing journalism professor who said the reason women knew less than men about those questions is that they are more likely than men to watch local news. She said, “Watching local news makes you dumber.” This became translated to: “Elder thinks women are dumber than men.”
This brings us to Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, former President Donald Trump’s running mate. The AP wrote: “During Vance’s bid for the Senate in Ohio, he said in a Fox News interview that ‘we are effectively run in this country via the Democrats,’ and referred to them as ‘a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too. … How does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?'”
The outrage was as intense as it was predictable. His comment became translated to: Vance has disdain for women without children; Vance believes childless women ought not hold office; and the only woman the “sexist” Vance does not hate is the one he married.
I do not have children, had a beloved cat named Cream Puff, and ran for governor and president. That people with children have more skin in the game is a common point of view held by my mother, my father, my two brothers and my pastor.
MSNBC political analyst Molly Jong-Fast said: “What’s interesting is that this is this natalism that comes from an authoritarian playbook, right? That there need to be more ‘white children,’ right? That’s the idea. This is about great replacement theory racism, right? This is what this is. So don’t misunderstand it for him wanting more children. He wants a certain kind of racist thing.” Never mind Vance has three children with his wife, the daughter of Indian Hindu immigrants.
In a response, Vance did not back down: “The left has increasingly become explicitly antichild and antifamily. They’ve encouraged young families not to have children at all, because of concerns over climate change.”
Here’s the game. Every news cycle spent on castigating Vance for his “childless cat ladies” comment is one less news cycle spent on the outrageous radical beliefs of Vice President Kamala Harris. Among them are: open border policies that have allowed more than 8 million illegal aliens to enter the country since the beginning of the Biden-Harris administration; a more left-wing Senate voting record than Sen. Bernie Sanders; a desire to “reimagine the police”; saying there is a “perception” that Immigration and Customs Enforcement is akin to the KKK; advocating the abolishment of private health care insurance; taxpayer-funded health care insurance for illegal aliens; single-payer national health care insurance; taxpayer-paid family and medical leave; national rent control; a national minimum income; a commission to study “reparations;” banning fracking and offshore drilling; a transition to 100% electric vehicles by 2035; asserting it is “not a crime” to be in the country illegally; and according to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, one of Harris’ more vocal surrogates, a support for amnesty with a path to citizenship for the illegal aliens in the country before and under Biden-Harris.
Democrat politicians and the Trump-hating media do not want an apology. If Vance did apologize, the next news cycle would become: “What took so long?” “It was too little too late.” “The apology does not undo the insult.” The goal is simple. Democrat politicians and their media sympathizers do not want you to ask whether you are better off now than three and a half years ago. They do not want you to ask whether Harris’ radical, redistribution-of-income beliefs will make you better off.
They want you to ask whether you are a “childless cat lady.”
That’s me, it gives me more time to sit in the office and solve the world’s problems, what’s wrong with that?
You’re kinda cute though Uncle Tom.

Misanthropy is a common leftist trait that manifests in many ways, such as disdain for parenting.
Not every childless woman is childless by choice. Let’s not pain with too broad a brush!
Ironically Roman Catholic nuns are childless by choice and J.D. Vance is a Roman Catholic.
Then there’s that little detail about his God, Jesus Christ. Jesus never had children or sex by choice because he had no stake in this world, he died to get to the next world.
It probably would have been better if he said childless cat men
*childless cat men*
What walks on two legs and screws “cats”?

“We are effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable too,
How does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?”
Ironically, but actually logically and predictably, what is truly wrong, offensive, and ultimately evil about this statement by J.D. Vance, is what is truly wrong, offensive, and evil about Leftism.
Namely, the implied evil idea that the individual is not an end in himself or herself but exists to be the end for others. The idea that the individual only really has a stake in life if he or she sacrifices him or herself for others.
Vance’s statement implies, that if the individual lives his or her life for his or her own sake, and not for the sake of others, not for the sake of children, he or she doesn’t really count, isn’t really living, doesn’t really have a stake in freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
But that’s precisely the Left’s whole morality in a nutshell. You, the individual, have no right to dedicate yourself to the pursuit of your personal happiness. You, the individual, have no real reality outside of serving others, of serving society, of serving the whole human race.
That’s the moral code of Marxism, Nazism, Fascism, and Islam. That’s the moral code of Collectivism.
And don’t forget, the Nazis encouraged and gave women medals to have more children for Germany, for the Fatherland, for the Aryan Race.
The lone, sovereign, and independent individual is nothing, the collective is all — that’s Nazism, Marxism, and Islam in a nutshell.
The Nazis gave medals to Aryan women who gave birth to cannon fodder for the Warmacht.
And the same is true for Islam.
The Muslima is not a sovereign, independent, individual. Free to pursue her personal happiness. But the obedient servant of Allah. Her duty is to sacrifice her life to Allah and the Ummah and have as many children as possible for Allah.
I am glad you mentionef Cream Puff. On behalf of Perkins, Danny, and Jasper, all gone but not forgotten, and above all, on behalf of Philippa and Caesar, whose love for me, trust in me, need of me, helped me keep my sanity during the First Intefada, I want to say that I find “Cat Lady” a very offensive epithet.
I am a childless multipal cat family lady voting for Trump.
Sorry meant multiple cat family lady (childless) voting for Trump.
I have no cats now, though I miss them badly, but A),I am a reiree, on a tight budget; B) When cats die, they break your heart and clean out your bank account; C) I know now how suddenly a serious illness can strike and how incapacitating it can be. I had no cats when I was hospitalized, with a volvulus, in December of 2015. I went in by way of the emergency room. The first few days, I was seeing the world through a blur of pain and there is no way in the world I could have arranged amything as complicated as having the cats cared for.
Someone should repeat the wonderful Mako IL Harvard admissions prank telephone call (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWM0CHQ5TNc), but this time have the Hamasnik’s mother try to get him Democratic party membership.
Good, Vance!

I hate to discount that it’s just LEFTIST women unhappy with the CHILDLESS CAT LADY reference. Today, I was sitting around with four other Republican ladies, and they weren’t happy about the comment either. At first, I thought it was right on point and quite funny, but their take wasn’t as accepting. Many Conservative Republican women are childless cat ladies, my conservative sister being one of them. Vance needs to dial down his disparaging tone. It won’t win him their vote. The more I think about it, the more I realize it was a dumb and unnecessary comment, even though I think he’s probably right.
While feminism had some good points – equal pay for work – after four decades it has created a whole new generation of young women who’ve been told that business/corporate success is more important than getting married and having kids. Women have always influenced the home and sex life of a couple. What greater power do they need?
Equal pay for equal work is not a good point at all.
Every man and every woman is an INDIVIDUAL human being, with unequal intelligence, unequal skills, unequal talents, unequal knowledge, unequal dedication.
How the hell is anyone to judge that two different individuals are doing the same equal work?!
And beyond that, in a free society, in a free market, every individual employer and every individual employee has the moral right to contract for employment according to their individual choice. The government has no right to step in and FORCE any employer or employee to pay or receive what the government arbitrarily claims is a “fair” wage.
The minimum wage, the so-called “fair” wage, the equal pay for equal work laws, violate individual rights. And the ones most harmed by such laws are those potential employees, male and female, with the least experience, least skills, least knowledge, who nevertheless would be eagerly hired at a lower competitive wage.
Unions LOVE wage laws because they keep the competition out and artificially raises wages for their members and they also raise prices for the customers.
The actual and real minimum wage is ZERO.
Hardline Feminists ant all men to be total Wimps and sissies Hugging Trees and going Vegan and Meditate in the woods going OOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM OOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM OOOOOOOOMMMMMMM
