Two final holdouts give Democrats the 60 votes needed to clear the way for a full-scale debate.

Yes, I mean it. It was set up that way for several reasons. 105 posted on Saturday, November 21, 2009 8:40:48 PM by elkfersupper (Member of the Original Defiant Class) "

I agree with you. I’m a woman myself, and I’ve been saying the same thing for years.

I wholeheartedly agree. I'd gladly give up my vote if it meant that the rest of the silly, emotion-ruling instead of rationality, fools lost theirs as well. My sex is an embarrassment to me. 141 posted on Saturday, November 21, 2009 9:26:55 PM by publana (Obama, you will not intimidate me into not voicing my opinions.)

How Dramatically Did Women's Suffrage Change the Size and Scope of Government?
JOHN R. LOTT Jr. American Enterprise Institute (AEI) (download links for whole document at bottom of page)
September 1998
University of Chicago Law School, John M. Olin Law & Economics Working Paper No. 60 Journal of Political Economy, Vol. 107, Number 6, Part 1, pp. 1163-1198, December 1999
Abstract:
This paper examines the growth of government during this century as a result of giving women the right to vote. Using cross-sectional time-series data for 1870 to 1940, we examine state government expenditures and revenue as well as voting by U.S. House and Senate state delegations and the passage of a wide range of different state laws. Suffrage coincided with immediate increases in state government expenditures and revenue and more liberal voting patterns for federal representatives, and these effects continued growing over time as more women took advantage of the franchise. Contrary to many recent suggestions, the gender gap is not something that has arisen since the 1970s, and it helps explain why American government started growing when it did.

“Women shouldn’t be allowed to hold public office and non-male, non-property owners shouldn’t be allowed to vote. Yes, I mean it. It was set up that way for several reasons.”
Yes, and the importation of slaves was in and guaranteed by the consitution for 20 years after it was signed in 1787 but the founding fathers left room in the that consitution for amendments and changes. K-12 education was not a “right” by the consitution either but Thomas Jefferson faught for and won, by a law that passed consitutional challenge, guaranteed, socialized education using this same system. People’s views are dynamic from generation to generation and that is precisely why our system was setup to be flexible and dynamic.
Do you seriously mean those words that you said? If so, you are fucking insane. Sorry for the harsh language but saying “Women shouldn’t be allowed to hold public office and non-male, non-property owners shouldn’t be allowed to vote” is batshit crazy, elitist and sexist.
