The story in even for tabloid standards briefly summarizes the history of woman participants in the parade and a even briefer mention that if more women had been a part of the detail in the past there might not have been a Secret Service prostitution scandal.

I writing this because I spend more time than I care to, pointing out the idiotic posts of right wing contributors who mischaracterize a story or don't even take the time to read it. So I will not tolerate the same shoddy posting from members of the left.
Remarkably even-handed of you.
+1 for mr. Catto

"Republicans up in arms over female secret service agent"

"

I must say, you sure have vivid ,wild imagination.

I DIDN'T READ ANYWHERE I THE ARTICLE THE THINGS YOU CLAIM.

I find it rather funny, we are constantly bombarded with The first black this, and the first woman that, so now we have a woman in the Secret Service and she is congratulated for making into the very elite President's Security Detail and YOU are whining.

This is the classic example of reading things that aren't there and displaying the sheeple attitude of political brainwashing.....

Congratulations....

Comparing a conservative British newspaper like the Daily Mail, to let's say the World News Daily, is like comparing hand grenades to pineapples.

Either way the thread is a distortion of fact.

This is pretty stupid. There is plenty of real material to knock Republicans over.

Daily Mail is pretty bad, is it as bad as World News Daily? No, but few publications are. You are correct, the thread is disengenous
