In reply to the discussion: Arizona declines to set up state-based health insurance exchange [View all]yardwork
(61,331 posts)27. Your photo and its caption is a classic attack on older women.
So according to you, the thing that really bothers you about Jan Brewer is that she is an old hag whose natural hair is probably short, grey, and curly?
The implication of your post is that there is something wrong with all older women, and you are triumphantly pointing out that Jan Brewer is one of us too.
As an older woman, I take offense. There are a lot of things to hate about Jan Brewer. Her age and her sex are not relevant.
President Obama has short, curly hair that is turning grey. How do you feel when people post ugly racist caricatures of the president? Don't you think the people who do that are idiots?

What does curly grey hair and being an "old hag" have to do with being ignorant?

I think the idea is that if it doesn't work out well, they don't have to take the blame

Sure, leave it up to the feds, then if you don't like the outcome bitch about states rights.
