Rape is Not Funny

Darleen of Protein Wisdom takes pride in posting a comic of President Barack Obama raping the Statue of Liberty.
Oh I know I’m going to get called names on this. But I’m not going to play that game anymore. Like the sign at one of the TEA parties that said “it doesn’t matter what this sign says, you going to call it racist anyway.” When even the lawsuits now being brought by 30 plus state AG’s is considered racist, it is time to stop playing that game.
Darleen, that is because the Tea Party signs are racist. 1776 Tea Party leader Dale Robertson held this sign at a rally.

The readership at Protein Wisdom is infamously misogynist. A sample comment by serr8d.
The Barack Obama is a very rapey little dude I think. You know you love it he says.
More people will be able to buy private insurance. That is hardly a reason for rape jokes and death threats.
Amanda Marcotte has had a online dealing with Darleen. Marcotte explains that Darleen is a "textbook example of a female misogynist." If you think that sounds harsh, Darleen posted a rape comic for giggles. Darleen also called the feminist blogosphere "Vagina Warrior blogsphere." Darleen constantly bashes a movement that gave her the rights she has. That is pretty sick.
