Comments on: THE IGNOMINIOUS DEMISE OF CAROLINE FLINT http://thehoneyballbuzz.com/2009/06/06/flint/ London MEP European Parliament Mon, 06 Feb 2012 22:57:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Reavis Daniel Moore http://thehoneyballbuzz.com/2009/06/06/flint/#comment-1583 Sun, 25 Oct 2009 10:58:18 +0000 http://thehoneyballbuzz.com/?p=2531#comment-1583 You sound like you’re living in the 1950′s.

“I believe women should play by the rules.” Ha! If women had played by the rules, their would be no women in politics, or leadership positions of any kind.

“…we are not yet advanced enough for women in politics, and men to some extent, to be obviously sexual in public.” Says who? Apparently “we” are advanced enough (though you apparently aren’t), as it seems like this photo spread has not really hurt Caroline’s career. And what is it exactly your suggesting with this line, that women politicians should pretend to be non-sexual in public? Isn’t that wholly disingenuous, and condescending to project a false identity to the voters?

Let go of your silly little value judgments, and leave the girl alone.

NOT being treated as window-dressing (!)
