"Let’s hope that the key conferences aren’t when she’s menstruating or something, or just before she’s going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then."
Conservative radio host G. Gordon Liddy thinks Sonia Sotomayor is unfit to be a Supreme Court justice because she will be incompetent once a month while she's menstruating. Spoken like a man who's incompetent everyday of his life. At least RNC chair Michael Steele wants to focus on "what this woman believes and why she believes it."

XD My god thi is so stupid (or at least it sounds like to me)
1Hum not EVERY woman is a bit upset when she has her menstruations. When I have mine I'm completely okay, there is no difference !
How can he judge like this ? xD
What can you even possibly say to address this? This is a guy that once advised people to shoot federal agents in the head if they came to your house.
I will admit that I sometimes listen to right-wing radio because they are so horrifying to listen to. This is a great example why. They just don't understand what is so graceless, so withered, so charitableness about their beliefs.
2A part of me just died reading that stupidity.
3And people wonder why the Republican party is losing members like crazy. Maybe they should stop with the sexism and racsim for a little bit.
4what a f*cking idiot.
5I completely agree with sontaikle, the republican party has only been hurting themselves lately. They say Joe Biden is bad, maybe they should think before they speak every once and a while. As a woman, I am offended by this. What a jackhole...
6Well, I think men should be castrated before they serve public office, because they are weak, ruled by their d!cks, and succumb to any hot young piece of a$$ they can get a hold of. Big decisions that affect the public are made everyday by these horndogs. How many times public policy has been influenced by a pair of big t!ts and a good BJ I shudder to think.
Makes about as much sense, right? Unfortunately, in my scenario, it happens to be true sometimes.
7Don't pay attention to this fool.
8All men (as far as I know) come from women, unfortunately for Liddy, even he does (apparently his mom didn't do a good job with him, but that's another issue).
As for me, I have great respect for women. There would be no human species without them.
But, please, be confident that there are very few men that think like this idiot.
Thank you.
are people still allowed to be this sexist, ON TV!! what an a$$.
9She's almost 55 years old. She's likely going to be going through menopause anyway!
10Of course this comes from a male who has never menstruated in his life. It's no lie that females often get more emotional around that time. I do. But to say we are incompetent? That's a bunch of bull! What time of the month it is in no way affects my ability to do my work at my job.
11What an idiot, when I'm menstruating I'm as capable as any men. She has more experience than the other members of the supreme court. Her history shows that she is capable, and that she is a hard worker. So back of idiot.
12WOW. These conservative radio hosts don't seem to do any good for the Republican party. Disgusting.
13If I were this dude, I would fear for my life.
14"Unfortunately, in my scenario, it happens to be true sometimes. "
15me too! but also agree that she looks close to menopause~!
That asshat need to have his nards attached to his forehead with a nail gun. Seriously.
16Idiot!
17There is absolutely no research that can conclusively find a difference (read: they can't prove it, so it DOESN"T EXIST) between a woman's performance while menstruating, her performance when not menstuating, or a man's performance when at work. He looks like he's from that generation that grew up right before the 60s, and were taught that the poor little wimmins are so silly to think they can actually think and function on the same level as men when all they can do is make cute little babies and clean house. I recently found some old extremely sexist ads here (http://www.oddee.com/item_96674.aspx) from this era (all the way up to the 80s!) that made me throw up in my mouth a little bit. If the Republican party is fine with dieing off with this geezer, then by all means, they can keep this up as much as they like. However, as a moderate Republican and Meghan McCain fan myself, I believe if the party wants a future, they'll let his kind die off instead. Such an ignorant idiot.
18I think Tres actually did an article about that site, if I'm not mistaken... I could be though.
19WTF...why would he even say that...wat a lame..i hope he gets alot of flack from this statement
20I feel like inflicting damage to him and I'm not even on my period. Hmm.
21It's one thing to disagree with her nomination based on concrete, factual-based arguments, but based on PMS or period? Yeah. I hope if he's got a wife at home, she'd give him lots of flack for this statement.
I think it is unfair to assume that all men or republicans are like this, but even going through her bout of incompetence every month, she seems to have come pretty far. Really, I'm still competent during "that time of the month," usually, no one even knows.
22What a bunch of bull sh*t
23Perhaps Sonia was right about white men after all.
24Oh wow how surprising a conservative host saying something so sexist. :roll:
25oh well, i haven't been in forever i'm forgetting my emoticons.
26
Y'all are cracking me up. But hey, look at the guy--doesn't really look like he knows what a
woman wants, let alone what a woman goes through.
27In the same two minute clip this comes from, he also refers to the Spanish language as "illegal alien." So, he's racist as well as sexist. And also a convicted felon for the Watergate burglary.
28He also has that walrus look goin' on. What a winner, spacekat!
29I see a new candidate for Marry, Date or Dump, em1282!
30spacekat gal,
How about Do, Dump, Marry, with the additional "or Nut Trample" option thrown into the mix?
31Oh dear. Who allowed him out into public?
32omg he didnt just say that.
33He lacks any idea what a woman goes through during a certain time of the month. She may suffer from symptoms on the severe end of the spectrum. Some females are just fine and can function normally during "that" week, others suffer from quite a bit of hormonal and physical ailments. Liddy is a criminal and sexist jack*ss.
34I have just sent him hate mail. I feel so proud. I had never heard such a stupid comment in my life. Hope someone reads my mail.
35anyone else wanna send him a piece of your mind?
thegman@radioamerica.org
I'm sort of rendered speechless. Next time I have awful PMS, this dude's on my list.
36wow.
37just.. wow.
He needs to trim his nails before he goes out in public.
38"spoken like a man incompetent every day of his life"... love it, my thoughts exactly.
39chouette, i'm with you... she's 55! i don't think she's menstruating anymore, so even if this WERE a concern (which it's not), it wouldn't apply to sotomayor.
40Was this some sort of bad joke? No one is laughing.
41If you say crap like that you better watch out for the pissed "non competent" menstruating women you run into for the next couple of weeks. I could think of some disgustingly craptastic things to do to him myself.
