by NoahWhether or not Brett Kavanaugh is guilty or innocent of anything, the Kavanaugh hearings have shown us the essence of the Republican attitude towards women, or "females" as Mitch McConnell loves to dismissively refer to them, once and for all time. To republicans, all is permissive, to the extent of it becoming outward policy. This is not the old behind the curtain stuff of JFK's time or Bill Clinton's time. This is open, public disregard. This is not just ending Roe v Wade to exert control. this is not just women should shut up, stay home and bake cookies. This is women are meant to be just play things for boys. For the worst republicans, women might as well be ants on the sidewalk as they reach for the magnifying glass on a hot, sunny day. Not surprisingly, it appears that sexual assault is so normalized and approved of with a wink within the Republican rape culture of Washington, DC, that the things Brett Kavanaugh is accused of are qualifications for club membership. It's all just good fun.To republicans, women are apparently a species of beast which, under their warped version of their so-called Christianity, they are just another animal to assert their dominion over. To republicans, women are no more than blow up dolls, devoid of humanity. Who says boys don't play with dolls? To Republican men, women are only that. Can you see old fart fratboys like John Cornyn or the perfectly named Mike Crapo playing with a blow up doll or treating any woman like one? It's too easy to imagine that because that's how they present themselves, on a 24hr basis. No doubt that if Judiciary Committee Chaircretin Chuck Grasshole remembers ever having sex, it was with a blow up doll, or someone who, in his eyes, might as well have been.After last Thursday's senatorial circus of a hearing, Republican senators all held a meeting in a senate office building that all of us, man and woman alike, pay for. When Brett Kavanaugh staggered in, they rose and applauded him. Really. "He's our boy!" "We need someone on the court just like us!" This is the next step. Nominating, supporting, and voting for a confessed, pussy-grabbing, serial sexual assaulter for president wasn't enough. Working with a foreign adversary to ensure Trump's election wasn't enough. Judge Roy Moore wasn't enough. At this point, it almost seems that Republicans would support Hannibal Lecter if he ran for something as a republican, as long as he vowed to only beat, kill, cook, and eat women; with a nice chianti, of course.Tonight's meme offers a couple of "truth in advertising" slogans that we can expect Republicans to be running on straightaway.
