Congratulations to our own Robert Stacy McCain for making
RightWing News 3rd Annual list of the 50 Best Political
Quotes for 2011 as compiled by John Hawkins. Stacy McCain can
be found at #44 on the list with this
quote which was in response to Amanda Marcotte’s contempt for
Thomas Ball, a 58-year old father of three who committed suicide on
the steps of a courthouse in Keene, New Hampshire this past June,
following years of divorce and custody battles:
I have no use for “men’s rights,” any more than I have any use
for “women’s rights,” but let us ask: Who was it that decided it
was a good idea to politicize love, sex and marriage? Who spent the
past four decades proclaiming that “the personal is political,” so
that every office flirtation and every petty domestic quarrel is a
federal civil rights violation?
The damned feminists, that’s who.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that Rachel Alexander, the
co-founder and longtime editor of Intellectual
Conservative (where I began contributing articles in
2003) and an occasional
contributor to TAS, also made the list at #41.
So who’s Number One? The Navy SEAL who shot and killed Osama bin
Laden.
