October 7, 2010: Who called Whitman a whore?

No one knows, and if anyone does they're not going to tell. If you'd like to read the article, this is the link for it: Someone called Meg Whitman a whore, but she's being the "bigger man".

If you'd like a synopsis, Jerry Brown's team met up to discuss some campaign plans and some jackass forgot to hang up the telephone all the way after leaving a message for the LA Police Union. They brought up Ms. Whitman, called her a whore a few times, and the recording finished catching the "slur". It was then leaked to the press, Brown canceled his "get out the vote" showing, and Whitman is refusing to comment even though her aides want everyone to know that it's degrading for women everywhere!

Now, as a woman I'm not feeling too degraded. As a republican I'm not even outraged. But as a voter, I am pissed that we have to put up with this nonsense. With all the knowledge that every breath you take is being scrutinized by the public, you are stupid enough to call an opposing candidate a whore? And of all things, why whore? Do you posess knowledge that Ms. Whitman is sleeping around for money? Of course not. If you're going to resort to that kind of behavior to pass the blame and inflate your ego, I don't want you making decisions. I don't want you to blame the working class when you mess up, I don't want you to play any of those ego trip games. I believe that the issues at hand are important, more important than anything else you have to say. I want to know your plan of action.

I may not be 100% on anyone yet, but there are three things that I know right now. 1. We must QUIT deficit spending and outrageous spending. 2. We must create jobs for everyone, not just upper or lower class. We must create jobs across the board. 3. We must increase taxes, and we must be okay with that as Americans. I know people will fight me on at least the last point. But I don't believe my children should be forced to pay off a debt that was incurred without Mark and I even thinking about having children. That is unfair. This was OUR fault, this was OUR vote, or OUR lack thereof. We need to rise to the challenge and fix things ourselves, not pass the blame and pass the decline.

Love, Polly
