Kitty of Kitty Litter has the last word on what a woman wants in a Leader of the Free World. Girlie men like John Kerry or John Edwards (above) -- not gay but fastidious -- who "moisturize and Botox, and they know about exfoliation," need not apply. And Kitty's not afraid to put her microphone where her mouth is. Click here for her spirited audio endorsement of President George W. Bush.
"Let’s just say I prefer strong men who don’t feel the need to primp," wrote Kitty of Kitty Litter the other day:
I look at George Bush and Dick Cheney, and I’m not distracted by their clothing and accoutrements (except maybe that flight suit).
Kitty's onto something big and cites Pamela Yates's "The Geek Factor" in The American Spectator for some background and analysis of what's wrong with today's politically correct, nuanced girlie man:
George W. Bush is a throwback to the strong male that, until 30 years ago, was the accepted norm. It is only because America's sexual culture has become genderless that Bush's normal masculine qualities are treated with suspicion. The election this November will determine whether the nation still wants to be led by an Alpha male.
The only place to showcase one's gender these days are in the fields of entertainment, fashion and pornography. Men and woman are confused, with men acting like women -- "girlie men" -- and women acting like men.
Parity and equality between the sexes is a moral imperative, but denying Mother Nature is a formula for disaster. [Don't we always say?] As a member of the boomer generation, I spend more than my share of time with children of the '60s. Their romanticizing of those days sets my blood to boiling . . . The feminists' social engineering project only complicates our ability to think clearly and retain our uniquely American approach to life.
When it comes to making strategic decisions, soft men are useless. More preoccupied with emotion than reason, they seek to please everyone rather than solve the problem. And what do they do when they need to show they're real men? They don't show it; they talk about it. Can one imagine Winston Churchill or Dwight Eisenhower flaunting their war experiences in the Boer War or World War II in order to prove that they were real men?
Girlie men are for between-war eras. We can't afford their failure to recognize the wolf at the door right now.
Thanks for the link! That's really nice of you. My oroginal post, I'M TALKIN' 'BOUT MEN, certainly hit a nerve. Lucianne linked it and I had my best day ever! Thanks again.

Ironic that this post is in the "Idiotarianism" (this term is about as useless as "NASCAR dad") category. Glad that we're talking about such important stuff on the eve of the election. Keep it up.

It's the character, stupid (nothing personal).

You're absolutely right. It IS the character.

Soft men are useless? -What about soft women then? It's funny to see a guy like Schwarzenegger become Governor. He's a muscle guy with no brain and no acting talents. He cant even do english. And then you have this cowboy Texas guy as President. Here in my country we love to mock your ridiculous government, it's a like a really dumb soap opera. And you know what; the current American politics are really very outdated.
