>>>Such is the world. We expect women to bring change, to bring a different way of thinking and doing things in politics (and elsewhere). But for a woman to climb up the ladder, she first has to master the masculine art of climbing... and lose much of her feminine mind along the way, replacing it with climber's skills. Women in the audience are the first to notice what's wrong.

>>Women movement is no different when it comes to being with their own kind. Women's movement is for liberal women only. If your outside of their fense, they have no mercy. Same with blacks. If you're black and run with the Republican crowd, you're an uncle tom or worse.

>If you're American and leftist (I mean, left from what's called left here), or Polish but not Catholic, or colonial but gone native, or Jewish but disagreeing with policy of Israel, or Palestinian but agreeing with the Israeli neighbors, or were a communist between the 1920s and 1950s but disagreed with Stalin, you're black sheep as well, there's nothing new. Intolerance makes politics. It's also a way to keep the ideas from being diluted.

I don't know. If I were living in his time I'd probably do what he did. But I don't, so the answer is it depends on the master.
But come on Dragan, You can't be telling me that you feel like a slave living here.

I refuse to use that word in today's context in current day USA. Your good, but there is no way you can convince me that any of us are slaves in the country.
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.
- Alexis de Tocqueville

No man’s life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session.
– Mark Twain (1866)
