The Red Sox.
You guys are fascinating.
I will take this as a compliment that I come across as some kind of Russian who writes English well.
But Glen Reynolds himself has a link to a balanced article.

Because the Russians called WW2 the “Great Patriotic War” and I was talking about WW2 from their point of view, I used their term.
It is fascinating that you say you caught me as a Russian.
Here is good proof that I am not Russian. I will write the above sentence in Russian using the Latin alphabet and you can ask a Russian friend if I have done so correctly (I guarantee that I will make a mistake):
Interesno shto vy napisali shto vy poimal menya kak Russki.
That is horrible Russian.
I learned in the US Army of all places.
I served against the Russians back when they were not our allies.
Buddy,
Russia and the Ukraine are doing well now.
The women are GORGEOUS.
The women in Georgia are beautiful as well. I don’t want any of their brothers killed in any war.
Only a total eunuch (completely castrated) or a very happily married man (getting it 5 times per week) would not want to visit for awhile.
That is another reason why any “male” here who wants Russia to be their enemy must be nuts.
I am not following who did the cyber attack but it probably came from SPB and the Georgian site is now hosted out of Atlanta.
[Also, no anti-Hillary, anti-liberal, anti-feminist American would slur Fox News. I think you just couldn’t help yourself with that one, but it’s a revealing ‘tell’.]
What? Fox News anti-feminist? Bill Oreilly won’t allow Marc Rudov to even mention the word “feminism”!
In fact, Marc Rudov has been told by Bill OReilly and Neil Cavuto that he is NOT allowed to mention any specific legislation that conservative men should get riled up about.
He is only allowed to complain about stupid stuff like men having to pay for dinner with a woman. He does get to slam the concept of alimony. On CNN he was allowed to complain about the billboard in Virginia that showed a man holding hands with a child and said “If it looks wrong report it” (people were phoning in and getting dads arrested for being with their own children).
Fox News thinks every US male is a sex offender in waiting. They want all US women to be paranoid of their constant parade of deviants.
In May 2006 Tony Snow, RIP, badly slandered all American men who traveled abroad and maybe dated foreign women. He called us “sex tourists”. Then Bill Oreilly piled on and lost my respect instantly after I had been a fan of his for years.
That is a big trait of a Neocon: in the end they eat their own.
This kind of anti-male thinking was always in the background of some older social conservative females…but MALES used to run the Republican Party (and Democratic Party).

Did you Google IMBRA and VAWA like I asked above?
You would have been very angry reading about them.
What I think happened regarding the Bush Admistration and feminism was this (two theories):
1) After 9-11, a lot of the type of feminist who wanted to see male chauvinists blown to Hell…joined those of us who wanted to see Al Qaeda blown to Hell…via death squads or whatever. The Bush Administration noticed this. Around 2002 all Republican politicians stopped using the word “feminist”. You won’t hear any US politician use that word at all anymore.
2) Bill Clinton had sex with a 22 year old in 1997, which is what anyone married to Hillary (for convenience) would have done under the circumstances.
The strange type of religious Republican then ran with that, almost in synch with the movie “The American President”, and impregnated the Republican Zeitgeist with the radical feminist idea that a man does NOT have the patriarchal privilege of sleeping with a coworker and, worse, got the feminist principle that it is wrong to sleep with a YOUNGER woman into the Zeitgeist.
Those who remember what it was like to be a Republican in the 1980s remembers that the #1 issue on which to stop the feminists was their horrible idea that men should be sued for harrassment if they sleep with a coworker or employee. The feminists apparently achieved total victory on this when I was living in Europe in the 1990s.
At the time of the Monica Scandal, a lot of us were only so happy to get Clinton impeached and a Republican elected in 2000. So we let the criticism of Clinton happen, convincing ourselves that he was bad because he LIED about it all (it was really because older females of both parties felt threatened by the idea of a husband sleeping with someone 27 years younger).
Because a lot of Democrat males wanted to give Clinton a pass, a lot of feminists moved toward Bush because he did not want to give such behavior a pass.
I thought it was all an act. So I voted for Bush in 2000. I figured the guy was still the party guy he had been just 20 years earlier when he was sleeping with every stewardess in Houston.
I was wrong about Bush sticking up for normal male behavior…but those images from China show that the old guy probably wanted to pat that volleyball player’s butt (she is 40 years younger than he is).
Whatever theory is correct does not matter: the point is that Fox News and the Republican Party are not friendly to male interests.
They feel that they can’t be and still win elections.
