        And they wonder why they come across as having problems communicating with half the human race.

        That’s cool. I am sure one of the female Republican Senators on the Judiciary Committee can set him straight. Oh, wait...

        This morning, before the start of the “mock” hearing, I am thinking two things...”female assistant” and term limits. #Basta #GrabThemByTheBallotBox #MeToohttp://Vote.org

        @senatemajldr...White old guy -- chauvinist. Demonstrated time and again leading the charge of the other old white chauvinists who discount women each and everyday.

        For @senatemajldr a woman must, by definition, be an assistant. The #misogyny & #contempt that drip off his tongue whenever forced to address women senators makes clear he does not see them as colleagues.

        Bill Clinton used a position of power to take sexual advantage over a young woman. And you seemed pretty okay with that. Anthony "Carlos Danger" Weiner did far worse, and you seemed pretty okay with that, too. Frauds and Hypocrites, all of ya.

        That should be the first question Dems ask — of her. “How did you feel when you were referred to as a ‘female assistant’”?
