Danica Patrick is a bitch!

"Sheesh, Ferrerman! Why is every strong, independent, successful woman "a bitch"? Why the double standard? Would you say that about a strong, independent, successful man?!?"

Why, yes. Yes I would. Try this on:

Mitch McConnell is a bitch.

Happy now? It's a familiar lament from women and they do get denigrated as "bitches" for things that men tend to get applauded, respected, and feared for. My thing is, these seemingly strong, admired men are bitches too. It's just more accepted for a man to be a bitch. It's just not talked about.

Jamie Dimon, who is a dude, recently appeared before some senate panel to discuss something about losing billions of dollars as CEO of JPMorgan Chase. It had something to do with his degenerate gambling skills, which are sometimes good, sometimes awful. In this case they were awful. He lost like 9 billion dollars recently. You'd think the senators would be inquisitive and angry about that but, when you *lose* 9 billion dollars on Wall Street, that money goes somewhere and that somewhere is generally the right place, the place it was intended to be lost in anyway.

But, instead of being angry, the senators seemed to be quite enamored of Dimon. Frankly, I think Bob Corker wanted to suck his dick. The other senators did too. Who knows what happened off camera?

As I watched the coverage, I had to wonder if it had been a female Jamie Dimon, would the committe have been so indulgent and amorous? I don't think so.

Danica Patrick is a babe. Very spankable. She's a NASCAR driver if you're scoring at home. She's also featured in those truly horrible "GO DADDY" commercials, if you're not familiar with racing. She's a little spitfire of a gal and has a mouth on her. She's been known to shove other drivers, on AND off the track, if they piss her off.

You know what that makes her? A NASCAR driver, that's what. Almost all of them are like her. Really, this is one of the reasons I let NASCAR fall by the wayside several years ago after years of being a fan. They're a bunch of fucking whiners! I couldn't stand it anymore. It wasn't enough to fall out of the race because there was a wreck in front of you and you got caught up in it because, at 175mph, shit happens. You have to blame someone else and give a reason why the Huggies Big Boy Pull-ups #35 car wrecked. It was because the #37 car has it in for you and yada-effing-yada... NASCAR became the WWF on wheels and I got out. Lots of other people did too. Then they brought in Danica Patrick, who has a spankable bottom, to spice things up. This should have brought me back but, it didn't. She is more of the same, just attractive. Let's face it: either one of the Busch boys is a better driver (big deal) and both are bigger bitches but, Danica Patrick is a babe. This is good for racing, I guess. The thing is, when I scroll through the channels and look at the race, invariably there is a wreck or "debris on the track" causing a caution and this means more commercials and less racing. Football has "TV time-outs" and NASCAR has "debris on the track". Who knew that rolling billboards would turn out to be so commercial?

I'll bet you Danica Patrick is a nice person in real life, whatever real life is. She can drive the car and that is pretty special. NASCAR may be silly and a damn-near scripted business but, men have died racing. Speeds of nearly 200mph can kill and this is not to be taken lightly. Danica is more than a pretty face and deserving as any man of being there. It's just odd to me that she- or any other woman in a man's game or business- is called a bitch for acting like a man. She's not trying to be a man, mind you. She's just going along with the program and, well, acting like a man. Hopefully it's just an act, like it is for most of the other drivers.
