2013 Weinstein Joke was Personal ...

I was Angry for My Friend

 

He says ... "I couldn't resist the opportunity to take a hard swing in his direction. Make no mistake, this came from a place of loathing and anger. There is nothing more abhorrent and indefensible than abuse of power such as this."

He's angry at himself??? That's rich!!! Trying to distance himself from responsibility. A douche to the bitter end. He's had decades to reform. Fuck him and Crosby.

This crap in hollyweird has been going on for years back then they were able to keep it in the down low but now w social media word gets out faster and people will distance themselves quickly. Maybe you guys are too young to remember but remember Errol Flyn?

Wrong. If it symbolizes an injustice it's still there and ignoring it is tacit approval. If there's a known child molester in the room do you ignore him or do something about him being there?  Agitate for change if you don't like something.

You're comparing a child molester to a statue ?

OK wife beater then. You hear your neighbor beating the shit out of his pregnant wife. None of the neighbors do anything. So by doing nothing you signal that it's ok. If you don't agree with something do something about it. Chances are the neighbors will at the least, silently agree with you.

Feminists emboldened pervs like Weinstein about two decades ago and fractured their own base. Harvey still might have gotten a pass had they not called for Trump's head for a solid year over the pussy tape. I'm not complaining BTW.

 

Clinton and Women

 

President Clinton’s sordid entanglements with Gennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, and now Monica Lewinsky have drawn barely a squeak of protest from the powerful writers, lawyers, activists, politicians, and academics who call themselves feminists. As they struggle with fresh allegations from Kathleen Willey, the author reveals some ugly truths about the women’s movement and the commander in chief.

 

May 1998

 

With the exception of a few Republicans, women in Congress—including several swept to power by female outrage over the Senate’s treatment of Anita Hill—have shown an equal agility of mind. Their excuses range from the procedural stonewall (“What is important for the American people to know is that there is a process in place to deal with these allegations,” in the words of Senator Barbara Boxer) to the creative inversion (What about Ken Starr’s “humiliation” of the women he dragged before the grand jury?, fumed Representative Nancy Pelosi) to the truly fanciful twist on gender politics (“Not so many years ago, a woman couldn’t be a White House intern,” said a straight-faced Senator Carol Moseley-Braun on Meet the Press).

 

In the Lewinsky case, it has fallen to their enemies to state the obvious. “The C.E.O. of a corporation wouldn’t have had time to pack up his briefcase before he was fired for this,” says Barbara Ledeen, executive director for policy at the Independent Women’s Forum, the Washington-based group that has achieved a certain cachet for its condemnations of traditional feminism.

 

“The president should be setting some sort of example in the workplace,” says the outrageous libertarian writer Camille Paglia, who has gained prominence in part for denouncing liberal feminists. “That’s all I’m talking about. In. The. Workplace…. Since when did the president use the interns as a dessert cart? ‘Mmmmm, she looks good!’ When did that become okay?”

 

The chief reason for feminists’ continued support of Clinton is clear: Clinton is their guy. Clarence Thomas was their enemy. Bob Packwood, a liberal Republican who was the next habitual boor to walk the plank, was a harder case for feminists, but in the end they tied the blindfold. Clinton, though, is the hardest case, because he is the most reliably supportive president they’ve ever had.

 

The elitism inherent in the Clintons’ own feminism was apparent from the very first weeks of the administration, when yuppie lawyer Zoe Baird saw her nomination for attorney general derailed over the issue of her having both employed two illegal nannies and failed to pay the requisite Social Security taxes. All the brilliant attorneys involved in preparing Baird for her confirmation had overlooked the fact that this might be an enraging issue to the chumps who couldn’t afford nannies of any nationality, yet paid all the personal and business taxes they owed.

 

“They think only bluestockings are worth paying attention to,” says the conservative writer Lisa Schiffren, a former speechwriter for Dan Quayle, about Clintonian feminism. “You know, important women with important careers and day-care needs…. Clearly this is a bunch of Wellesley girls saying that Wellesley girls and Yale graduates are worth fighting for, and high-school grads and hairdressers and lounge singers can be destroyed.”

Personally, I wonder who Harvey ticked off. Someone with his massive amount of Hollywood power rarely topples from peons agitating. I think Harvey's bosses wanted him gone but have no clue why. Even if the dull-eyed starlets started the call for Harvey's removal what signal did they receive (and from whom) that he was now incapable of destroying them for their heresy? These gold-diggers wouldn't have risked breaking their rice bowls. They had solid intel that Weinstein was recently neutered and declawed but who told them so?

 Maybe it just takes a lot to motivate you. On day you'll find something you disagree with and will have to do something about it or try to ignore your conscience.

Sen. Robert Menendez may have hired underage hookers: feds

 

WASHINGTON — Federal prosecutors said Monday that they aren’t convinced claims U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez cavorted with underage hookers – widely seen as discredited – are false.

 

Lawyers for the New Jersey Democrat last week asked a federal judge to dismiss charges that the senator took bribes from a Florida eye doctor, Salomon Melgen, and in exchange used his power to do business and personal favors for him.

As far as Hollywood goes the casting couch goes back a LONG way right to pre-talkies.

 

Gay and lesbian actors who had to have their every move and action controlled by the studios if they wanted to be signed also had to fuck and suck whomever had the power of hiring and firing.

 

That aspect changed somewhat when star power took over and studios then needed said actor/star to be in any movie they wanted to make if they wanted bums on seats in the theatres and make any $$$ and as far as power and wealth goes,women and men have equally been willing to whore themselves to gain some advantage that at the time they saw as being the be all and end all in their goals for life.

 

Ones like Rose McGowan now crying foul is a bit rich given she tarted and fucked anything that she thought would get her a career boost. 

 

Just that now it's convenient to come out and make claims etc cause who knows maybe some more $$$ in that (Weinstein has paid out of court settlements for more than a few similiar lawsuits).

 

Politics wise it's a boys club to be sure and women have to do a lot more work to be treated or regarded as being on equal footing BUT with politics what junk you got between your legs matters not as far as having ethics/morals and actual spine to be a genuine helper of the people etc.

 

Cause the politicians - male,female or non-binary are all there to further their own interests at any and all means required,so for that I do not have any sympathy for a single individual in politics.
