Sisters! Remember Then and Do Not Forget Now. Or Pay The Price.

Posted on October 23, 2008 by Uppity Woman

Copyright 2008 Uppity Woman. All Rights Reserved. And I’m not kidding.

I am serious as a heart attack here and simply have to get this off my chest.

Do you all remember?

Do you not see something strangely familiar going on right now?

Women of the USA, two significant women have been skewered by Barack Obama, his misogynist sycophants, and  the Main Stream Media. Unless you are the type who needs a telephone pole on your head, surely you Get It. If you do not Get It now, you will most surely Get It later. Because you have less power than these two women and you will reap the residual treatment that has gone on unchecked. In this case, hindsight won’t help you one bit.

I have been around long enough to see much and I cannot stress the impact of a President’s attitude in the workplace and in the home. Beware when they cajole you into joining in on the destruction of another member of your gender. It is an old tool out of the sexism tool box.  A very old tool. When it is your turn in your world, you will remember this. Unfortunately, it won’t matter any longer and it won’t be very funny then either.

Women, push back or pay your own price. Because I can assure you that, if this sexist man becomes President with the complicity of his followers and the Main Stream Media who hates your gender, you will Pay the Price that will make unnecessary concerns about Roe v Wade seem trivial by comparison. Because Roe v Wade is going nowhere. At worst, it would become a states’ issue and even that is hard to believe.  In any event, Roe v Wade will be useless considering the rest of what will be done to your rights bit by bit, inch by inch. Remember some of the things you heard and read that came from Obama’s young male followers. They are Enabled now. They will believe that this kind of behavior is acceptable. In other words, don’t expect them to stop.

Sisters, you have been duped by the Democratic party. They do not respect you. They have used the same issues to hold you hostage for decades–while never actually ensuring they would no longer be issues. Abortion. Equal Pay. Equal ANYTHING. There is no difference between the Democrats and the Republicans. The only thing that separates them is which party the woman is in when they bash her. And please remember: Barack Obama was the Enabler of both of these travesties and assaults upon women.

They have seamlessly moved from the destruction of one woman in one party to the destruction of another woman in the other party, and have you not even noticed?

Do not accuse me of being a Republican. Accuse me of being a disgusted Democrat, because that is what I am. I recognize what’s really going on here.

Look around you. The party that claimed to represent you has abandoned you. Fight back or Pay. If you think your rights as a human being will always be there, you are wrong and you haven’t lived very long. Your rights are tenuous at best. Do not be complacent simply because you didn’t fight for the rights you enjoy today. And please remember that women acquired the right to vote by ONE Congressional vote.  That’s right. ONE vote got you the right to vote.  There was no overwhelming support from our Party on that day. 

You’ve been warned. Many times by many wise women who have Seen. Please do not be duped by the Shell Game.

Watch. Learn. Watching and learning are the paths to wisdom.  What you are seeing done to Sarah Palin today, regardless of her political views, is identical  to what was done to Hillary Clinton.

In your own way, in your own world: You Are Next. Because once society gets away with this kind of thing, what makes you think that you are immune? I assure you that you are not.

The face has changed, but the goal is the same. To suppress. To subjugate. This goes way beyond Roe v Wade. Don’t be fooled, I implore you.

If this kind of treatment has been ok with you, then I guarantee that not long from now you will be saying to yourself, “What the hell was I thinking?”. Because this kind of behavior is erosive and it doesn’t get turned off like a spigot. Of this you can be sure.

It’s up to you.  I have nothing to gain or lose. I’m all set. I have provided experience and food for thought. Use it as you will. Ignore it and Remember.

In the meantime, this is what they think of you. Both Parties. They just haven’t gotten around to you…..yet. This is not about Republicans or Democrats Sisters! This is about YOU. Because whatever they did to Hillary and whatever they are doing to Sarah, they are doing to YOU!

    Wonderful UW! Unfortunately this culture has set back women’s right a hundred years. The hiphop culture, the worship of Music an Hollywood morons. It’s hopeless when the very women you are speaking to refer to themselves and their peers as “hos” and “bitches”.

    Amen, Uppity. I’m sorry to say that it’s taken me 26 years, but I’m seeing the light. I’m a disgusted (former) Democrat who’s watching the work of every feminist before me go down in FLAMES for this man. Jesus wept. Thank you for all your hard work. I don’t know how you keep up with it all, but I appreciate it.

    Now you make me sad again watching that video, Ms UW (sulk). Am still sad yunno. I miss the primary’s Hillary

  7. sarainitaly, on October 23, 2008 at 11:35 AM said:

    Brava Uppity!

    How many times did we hear, during the primary, “I’m not against a woman president, just not THIS woman.”

    so, then the polar opposite of Hillary enters the race, and she receives the exact same, if not worse, treatment.

    It is that they are against women. Seems that way to me. And the attacks from women have been just as bad!

    BREAKING: Hillary Clinton in So. NM the SAME TIME as McCain, as Obama is in ABQ (Sat. 10/25)

    http://insightanalytical.wordpress.com/2008/10/23/breaking-hillary-clinton-in-so-nm-the-same-time-as-mccain-as-obama-is-in-abq-sat-1025/

    Sorry for being off topic, but I am truly mad now…not only is Clinton doing an event close by as the same time as McCain…BUT, Obama is in ABQ the same day! Since last week’s debate, Clinton has not been making moves that make me happy…she seems to be trying to attach herself to Obama way too much for me.

  9. Star, on October 23, 2008 at 12:12 PM said:

    How about that Republican congresswoman in Minnesota (I think Minnesota) who told Tweetie the Sweetie she thought Sen Obama had radical ideas, which he flopped into “anti-American” and then hung her with it. He ranted about this gal for three nites running and may not be through. Did Junior go to Hawaii–haven’t read that…

  10. Uppity Woman, on October 23, 2008 at 12:13 PM said:

    Hillary has left the building. It is far too close to the election for us to be worrying about her. Just my two cents.

    But seriously sister, I know my fuse is short in these last days–but you ALWAYS are off topic. You rarely even discuss the thread, if ever. You drop your link for traffic. And then you leave.

    I’m not sure you have even stayed long enough to read this. Just saying.

    I let you get away with it, but I would appreciate if you wouldn’t take advantage of the other regular readers here who are bloggers. Like Deadenders, McNorman, Quipster, to name just a few.

  11. deadenders, on October 23, 2008 at 12:16 PM said:

    Hillary has stated she will not run for president ever again. And shouldn’t barky be in HI by now trying to get his BC out of this grannies cold dead hands.

  12. Sharon H., on October 23, 2008 at 12:17 PM said:

    Hillary sure has left the building. She’s been in Minnesota with Al Franken bringing up right-wing conspiracies again.

    UW have you had a chance to see the obama child guilt video smear on Palin yet?

  14. catsrclean, on October 23, 2008 at 12:22 PM said:

    Honestly, I could care less about Hillary at this point. She sold us out as far as I am concerned. Right now time is est spent reading the messages UW posts hear and then going out to other sites and spreading the word.

    I have spent the last 20 minutes plastering this link around”

    The most important video ever surfaces!!!! You must see this!!!

  15. catsrclean, on October 23, 2008 at 12:23 PM said:

    PS – and that is one powerful video – the views have climbed over a thousand already – which means other people are watching and passing it around! This is some very serious stuff!

    Maybe I should email it to Hillary????

    Yes I saw that one. I did a piece on it yesterday I think DE.

  18. Uppity Woman, on October 23, 2008 at 12:25 PM said:

    I just refused to insert the video and give them traffic.

  19. catsrclean, on October 23, 2008 at 12:26 PM said:

    IUW – I know you do (have that link up). Where do you think I got it from???? I use a link to your piece on McCain friendly sites and a direct link to the video on Obama friendly sites as to not attract his bots here :-)

  20. deadenders, on October 23, 2008 at 12:27 PM said:

    Use the one I have from fox news with an obama surrogate defending it and looking like a complete moron. I have it on my YT channel and DE so they get no traffic.

  22. Uppity Woman, on October 23, 2008 at 12:35 PM said:


    is the direct link to youtube.

    Everything after the & sign in a video identifies a blog. You just delete it all and you have the raw video directly.

    Well, Hillary is going to have a fight on her hands if she comes back to a Senate under Obama rule. In that case, she’ll have to fight against his brand of totalitarianism with a majority that distrusts her.

  24. Betty, on October 23, 2008 at 12:55 PM said:

    I am sure Hillary was promised a very nice position. There is no way that she would allow all her knowledge of obama to fade away unless she was paid off handsomely. What a pity…and I could kick myself for having allowed myself to drink the democratic kool aid. Vivious…vicious people.

  25. deadenders, on October 23, 2008 at 1:00 PM said:

    Betty that’s politics for you. Doesn’t matter which party, but it hurts more when you put your time and effort into getting someone elected and they lie right to your face.

  31. Alice Paul, on October 23, 2008 at 1:50 PM said:

    I’m not too thrilled with what the dems have done here but, I’m not under any delusion about how much power and money these people have, I’m not blaming Hillary for doing what she had said she would do. Long term, since I’ve seen this sort of thing before, I know she will end up doing what’s best for the long term. It’s disheartening to say the least to see her being called a traitor now. Hillary has some power still but, if she turns on what she has to do for the state of New York and if she doesn’t play ball that will be it. And I am not comfortable with totally believing the oh so perfect timing of her saying she won’t run again. I feel something more is at play right now, every thing they are doing seems constructed to alienate PUMAS and to discredit her in our eyes. I’m not falling for it.

    I’ve followed her career since she sat on a board with my step mom back in Little Rock and she was trying to reform education there. There have been many, many times when people have not understood what she was doing, I have been one of those people in the past. Every single time she proved me wrong. I have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes but, I know she IS beholden to the people of her state. Of course the Soroscrats are going to exploit her. They have no shame..I’m not turning my back on that woman even though I do not care for what she’s being made to do right now. Her words ring hollow and sound like memos sent to her from Axelrod…under their thumb…

    I think if she wants back her full power long term she’s smart enough to see the writing on the wall right now. It sucks verily but, it is what it is. I stand by her because ya know she’s earned that over these years. I’ll wait till the whole jury is back in and till I know the entire story to start throwing rocks.

    This post is EXCELLENT and it’s exactly how I’ve felt. I blog under this name for a reason. It’s the democratic party Alice Paul was fighting against. And just like then she’d broken off from the bigger more comfy women’s organization who was doing NOTHING. I’ve gone back and read “Jailed For Freedom” twice this election…I’ve sat and watched “Iron Jawed Angels” again…

    What really struck me, is that just like then against the demcrats, women LOST their vote. These caucus frauds, and the manipulations of the D.N.C. have cost us what Paul worked so hard for, was beaten and force fed to gain. It’s cost us our votes. We were canceled out and that’s the same thing as not having a vote at all. They knew ahead of time. It’s evil.

    I know what I saw happening, and I know what has happened. It’s one reason I don’t put it past this group of people to trot Hillary out there with threats of ruining her career in JUST the VERY exact places, we wouldn’t want to see her. Saying JUST the VERY words we wouldn’t want to hear. They want to use her to alienate us further from her centrist view and cause us to say she’s “one of them” They’ve done worse. It’s sooo Axelrod to plan it that way.

    What’s that saying about living to fight another day???

    The task in front of me right now is to bring as much light as possible on to the corruption of this entire party. And not just right now but, beyond. I want Obama’s presidency should he win to be utterly disgraced by the time four years is up.

    In the meantime I voted McCain/Palin today…nothing like getting a little closer to that 30 percent solution. We actually need more like fifty percent.

    That video has been saved to my computer for months…it more than anything told the truth about what they planned and did in snippet of time. We’ve got a lot of work to do, sisters.

    UW, Thank YOU!!!!

    This is why high profile feminists like Lynn Rothschild, Prameela Bartholomeusz, a member of the Democratic National Platform Committee; Linda Klinge, Vice-President of the Oregonian Chapter of the National Organization of Women; Shelly Mandell President of the Los Angeles chapter of NOW; and Elaine Lafferty a former editor in chief of Ms. magazine were with Sarah Palin to endorse her at a rally in Toledo, Ohio on Tuesday.

    They get it. They understand that women must support each other whether or not we agree or disagree with abortion, etc….(which is just a BS smokescreen issue that we are being manipulated with)

    When I see women ignorantly supporting this misogynistic candidate and party, it literally makes me sick! But they’re brainwashed and have no sense of self worth. They’ve been taught for generations to hate other women.

    No matter what happens with this election, we truly need a grassroots New Feminist women’s movement. We dropped the ball and now like cockroaches, our house is infested again with misogyny and inequality.

    Nothing makes my blood boil more than to see women trashing other women in order to gain the approval of men. It literally makes me ill.

    I think it is fair to say that women across America are already beginning to feel the repercussions of this election in the workplace. Men once again feel free to ignore us, make us do the dirty work for less pay, and mock us due to gender. This crap flows from the top down, ladies. And if you think it’s bad now, what do you think will happen should this arrogant misogynist take office?

    There is no excuse for supporting this behavior. Whether you’re Hillary Clinton or Jo the Plumber. None.

    You mean the behavior in the video? That was against Hillary? I don’t see her trashing Palin. I do see her being OWNED right now and held to obligations she made before this ever started. Like I said, I have no idea what the all powerful Soroscrats have done here but, I did know of threats made against Hillary behind the scenes.

    I’m not trashing Palin, and I don’t think Hillary has either and I’m sure as hell not going to trash the one woman who has spent her whole life proving her mettle and showing what she stands for. These are dangerous times in that party. Not everyone has the power we wish they did.

    I wonder what she should do? Ruin her career so she cannot accomplish another thing long term, hang herself on a cross? I am sorry but, she’s got to do what she has to do. And knowing her career as LONG as I have, I know the truth will come out and when it does…Hillary Clinton is not going to end up the villain in that story. Soros< Obots and Axelrod love creating alienation and division. Nothing like kicking someone when they’re already down.

    I understand the ‘Hillary’ issue but frankly I think it can better wait for now as the priority is keeping BO from becoming POTUS

    Jay- Z does it again:

    http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1597225/20081016/jay_z.jhtml
    “Jay-Z Dedicates ’99 Problems’ To McCain/ Palin” .
    No surprise here, BO got away with it in the primaries (one of the MANY things the media left out in their coverage over here) so why not vs ”the evil, wolf-shooting Palin”

    OT:
    There’s a rather far-off ‘amnesty bill’ (our Dutch one was sensible in comparison -and that says smth) ‘on the rolls’ that BO would prbl. pass (if W would pass it they’d already would’ve brought it up to vote IMO)

    Alice Paul,

    No, that wasn’t aimed at Hillary. I have serious doubts about her lately, but I haven’t completely slammed that door yet.

    Not attacking Sarah Palin is the most admirable thing Hillary has done in the past month or two; definitely not trying to make that association! If I thought she was going after Palin for being a woman, the door would have been shut, locked, dead-bolted, and cemented immediately.

    I was just railing against the airheads in the media (like Campbell Brown) and the “New Democrats” (I know a couple of them) that don’t think attacking another woman will come back to haunt them. I’m 100% with UW on this one – these idiots are going to live to regret their actions. Let’s just hope they can grow up before it’s too late!

  44. sarahb, on October 23, 2008 at 8:26 PM said:

    Hillary is doing what she can to maintain her power. She saw the writing on the wall with the DNC handing the nomination to Obama, so she is doing what is necessary to keep her power base in the Democratic party. Even if Obama wins there will still be a locus of power between McCain and Hillary in the Senate. People’s eyes will still remain on them because deep down almost everybody knows that Obama is an illegitimate candidate who has cheated and bullied his way through.

    As for running again, didn’t she say she had no plans to run again? That’s poltiician-speak. It means she has no plans at the moment. Nobody announces their candidacy for president immediately before another presidential election because that would be an extremely stupid political move, particularly for her who is crucified for almost anything. I wish former Hillary supporters had more faith in her because she’s earned it.

  45. Alice Paul, on October 23, 2008 at 10:18 PM said:

    Thank YOU sarah. I’ve known her career and the things she’s done for this country for SO long, this is an incident she’s got NO more control over. She has signed agreements, she has been threatened. She does NOT have the money to stand up to Soros and the whole damned party. They will certainly ruin her for good. I’d rather she be able to fight another day as distasteful as a lot of this is, I am sure she wishes it were over too. Something tells me she WILL consider running again.

    I’m not going on No Quarter for a while after today, too many Hillary haters taking over. One person on there who is a new comer to all this just called her “sewage”

    Politics do not work the way most people seem to think they do at times. It’s a blood sport indeed. And she can’t just do what Bill is doing and go on vacation because that is not what she agreed to do ahead of time when she started her run. She agreed to support the nominee. Other people who have gone against Obama have been threatened to have their careers ruined. Soros is all powerful right now.

    She’s smart, she can have the MOST impact for people like us from the inside and from the outside she can do nothing. Just watch. I do have faith in her because she’s proved me wrong every time in the past I doubted she was doing the right thing for MOST people long term. She is.

    Sarainitaly, I see/hear what you talked about every day.
    I work with mostly women and the group of them who savagely mocked Clinton are the same ones who now are thrilled to have the fresh meat of Palin to tear into.
    They are not at all put off by the media treatment of women in general. Why should they be? They enjoy it, its their favorite pastime. They see other women as their direct competition. They appear to band together yet they don’t support eachother, instead they undermine eachother every chance they get.
    Lets face it, There are some women who have not yet shook off sexism. Sexism against our own gender.
    I’m not too popular among them and I’m damn proud of that fact.

    battle axe, you are heart strong. It makes me proud.

    Grail, I apologize. I’m a bit sensitive on the Hillary thing. I’ve got someone following me around the internet infiltrating PUMA who’s taken to calling her “sewage” wherever I am. *sigh* As someone who has been proud of her work over the last thirty five years, I am a little weary of seeing her beat up on since I feel she has earned the benefit of a little slack. I didn’t mean to assume things about your post.

    It’s time for me to make sure I do my yoga every single day. This woman hating over the last sixteen months has really disheartened and got to me, in a big way.

    This is a wonderful, wonderful post Uppity. *you make me proud too.*

    Alice, those kinds of comments will NEVER make it to this board, so you can rest easily. We moderate and trashers land in with the porn IP addresses.

    I know how you feel. you see, women who joined in on trashing Hillary never realized that this kind of enabling is like a cancer and that sooner or later it affects us all. Lesson learned though, I think. The hard way…

  50. Alice Paul, on October 25, 2008 at 7:45 PM said:

    Thank you uppity. It’s a real relief in these times to be able to go somewhere that women are not being bashed, for god forbid not being the personification of perfection every single second of every day, week and year. Seems it’s all too easy to wipe out all the good very quickly or simply not see it at all if you happen to be an accomplished female.

    That rolls down hill and doesn’t speak all encouragingly to the well being of the rest of us!

    Absolutely right. None of this is abstract or theoretical. The cruelty shown to Hillary and Sarah only forecast the climate that women will operate in. But perhaps the women who can afford to ignore feminism need to re-fight the battles that we did. We can only guarantee that they will have to.

    Thanks Uppity for the comments and the great video. I have not been a Hillary fan, but after watching what was done to her really upset me and lots of my female Republican friends. We started pulling for her – I think we have all felt the misogyny in out own lives (at least I have at work and still do). This has been a depressing political season.

    I too think that Hillary is having to do what she has to do. Don’t give up on her yet!

    Whoever wins this election, we need to stay strong as women and not let this bring us back down to the dark ages.

    Thank you Carol. That was really nice. Women need to circle each other’s wagon or they will NEVER be treated well.

    I am a conservative pro-life woman who never liked Hillary Clinton, but I urge her supporters not to lose heart where she is concerned. I saw her statement discouraging any support for McCain-Palin on the news, but I think it was made under duress.

    Right now, the Marxists have taken over the Democrat party and if Hillary wants to retain her Senate seat and her party membership she has to play ball with those little jerks or be tossed out like Joe Lieberman. Unfortunately, she does not have Joe’s pull with the Republican party to keep her in as an Independent.

    My brother and I watched Hillary’s interview on Fox and he was impressed enough with her intelligence and presence to say that it was a damned shame that she took a left turn from her days as a Goldwater Conservative, because she could have been the American Margaret Thatcher.

    That said, I was a McCain-loathing Republican who would have voted for Hillary Clinton had the Democrats run her. In addition, I was appalled and infuriated at the misogynist and hateful treatment Hillary received from the party she had served so well — too well — in my opinion. She kept Bill from being impeached and took it on the chin from the Republicans all these years. These Democrats have been riding the coattails of the Clintons for years and to repay them in this shoddy manner was beyond the pale.

    I have these observations to make about Hillary. She’s a smart woman. She knows the rest of you are smart, independent women and will now be talked into supporting a potential Marxist dictator like Barak Obama for president in the name of party unity. She knows you will support John McCain, anyway.

    She’s also no hypocrite. She’s been running against Bush’s abysmal record and McCain IS four more years of Bush. I’m a Republican who can freely admit that. But better four more years of the SOS than four to eight years of a Marxist thug who ascended to power by plagiarizing her ideas only to eventually make such a mess of them that no one will ever want to countenance them again.

    Hillary says she will not run for president again, but she is a woman and it is a woman’s prerogative to change her mind. Do not get discouraged and stay at home. Vote against Obamanation by voting for McCain. Make McCain win by such a large margin that the Democrat party will think twice before they ever pull such a stunt again. Teach George Soros that he can’t buy the American political process. Then work to put Hillary in the White House in 2012.

    God bless all of you.

    Your sister from the right of the aisle

    You are right- this is so horrible! That youtube video is totally scary. I am gonna post it on my blog.

    I wrote a recent post called “Obama is not a feminist” which you may enjoy, although you would definitely say it doesn’t go far enough. I have also defended Sarah Palin a lot.
