I am appalled by the new term “man-made disasters“. While I understand the laudable desire to avoid offending members of the terrorist community, this sexist term actually fails to accomplish this task! The misogynistic language in this new description implies that women are inherently incapable of causing disasters and denies their numerous valuable contributions. One of those highly accomplished women (Bernardine Dohrn) actually launched Obama’s political career in her living room, and that’s how he thanks her?! The president should be ashamed of using such hateful language.

This article proves my theory about how rightwingers generally really aren’t very good at humor.

No humor, no common sense

I think it is amusing, the lumping together of leaking gas station tanks and terrorism. Remember the Baader Meinhof gang? That was all about dating and hormones…
