The Bush administration, neo-cons, and most Republican statesmen and pundits manifest the worst attributes of our cultural male principle and the worst of the female principle. "dickish-pussy" like you say Sure it would be great if we could see a critical mass of the best of both in our culture, but it would be a profound improvement to dilute that negative...geistgechichte? of dickish-pussiness in half. BTW, I wonder if this cussing among these pundits lately isn't a symptom of their study of blogs. Katy, you nailed something I’ve been pondering today.

“dickish-pussy”

like you say

Sure it would be great if we could see a critical mass of the best of both in our culture, but it would be a profound improvement to dilute that negative…geistgechichte? of dickish-pussiness in half.

BTW, I wonder if this cussing among these pundits lately isn’t a symptom of their study of blogs.
