Just to clarify darlin'... Please give me a list of male politicians neglecting their families. Ta.

I think it's dreadful that women are criticised for working - that's what happens in pretty much every Western country. And if the majority of women work, then it should be accepted that they can work in politics. You can bet that even Kinder Kuche Kirche affliates these days have some female employees with children. Why? Because young mothers work for cheap.

If a party takes a stand on mothers in the home (risky even in right-wing America, surely?) then they cannot criticise working mothers. And if parents of both genders are necessary for a healthy upbringing, how can they support male career politicians who see their children about as often as a divorced Dad? Is he there at breakfast? Home to bath them? There all weekend?

Politicians are all mouth and no trousers. They try to enforce morals on us that they don't live by themselves (ditto journalists). Don't be fooled, people.
