[...] Jon, but my willful blindness is rather contingent on their not making shitty sexist remarks about women I don’t particularly like anyway but have to object to sexist critiques of because feminism can be a real bummer sometimes. Oh [...]

@PhDork: That’s like a multiple choice question where the answer is none of the above, dipshits.

Commenters to Bonnie’s dreck are (with one exception) even worse than her unhelpful sputterings. “How can you insult the amazing woman-governor?” “You’re just jealous!” “The governor is ugly!” and my favorite: “You need to get laid.” I would love to never speak of her again, but alas, being a feminist means speaking out against sexist bullshit, no matter who it’s targeting.

If people MUST talk about her, why can’t they actually talk about the issues that make her repellent as a human being, not as a sex object? We get it, everyone: she’s a woman. Now could we please talk about why she sucks so much? Her vagina has nothing to do with it. Or better yet, let’s never speak of her again!

I do love your characterization of her, though. So concise!
