“I don't reject the concept of preemptive war. I'm a mother of five. I have five grandchildren. And I always say: Think of a lioness. Think of a mother bear. You come anywhere near our cubs, you're dead. And so, in terms of any threat to our country, people have to know we'll be there to preemptively strike. But what the president [Bush] did was, on the basis of no real intelligence for an imminent threat to our country, chose to go into a war for reasons that are still unknown to us.” PeopleThinkingKnowsStillsWarRealCountryReasonMotherPresidentTermFiveBearsConceptsBasesThreatStrikesOur CountryRejectsGrandchildrenPresident BushCubsLionessReal Intelligence Author:Nancy Pelosi
“The concept of 'Momism' is male nonsense. It is the refuge of a man seeking excuses for his own lack of virility. I have listened to many women in various countries, and I have never found a woman who willingly 'mothers' her husband. The very idea is repulsive to her. She wants to mother the children while they are young, but never their fathers. True, she may be forced into the role of mother by a man's weaknesses and childishness, and then she accepts the role with dignity and patience, or with anger and impatience, but always with a secret, profound sadness unexpressed and inexpressible.” MenWantMayChildrenIdeasCountryYoungMotherFoundFatherSecretAcceptingRolesSadnessHusbandWeaknessConceptsDignityProfoundMalesSeekingVariousExcuseNonsenseRefugeImpatienceChildishnessProfound Sadness Author:Pearl S.
