John McCain's "old friend" G. Gordon Liddy went on the attack against President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, questioning Sonia Sotomayor's judgment during her menstruation.

Radio host G. Gordon Liddy attacked President Obama's Supreme Court nominee in perhaps one of the most grotesque tirades in recent times. "Let’s hope that the key conferences aren’t when she’s menstruating or something, or just before she’s going to menstruate," Liddy said. "That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then."

Liddy is no stranger to controversy -- in fact, he spent four years in jail for his role in the Nixon-era Watergate burglaries. His radio show is syndicated in 160 markets and on the Sirius Radio network.

Liddy also attacked Sotomayor for her affiliation with La Raza, a Hispanic civil rights group (which was also maligned Thursday by former GOP Rep. Tom Tancredo, who called it the Latino KKK). Liddy referred to the Spanish language as "illegal alien."

Men who have an inferior feminine side  can be just as overtly emotional too.  One can tell when they become possessed by their anima. (internal female side)  A man can be "in a bad mood" for any number of reasons than that too as women.  Problems with family and health all color our decision process.  We have a lot of women that are a hell of a lot worse to deal with not because of their menstrual cycle but because they are "animus possessed".  That kind of women is a pain to work with.  Impossible to please and no heart.  It is all complicated!

He is vulgar to say this out loud.  Women do have a change in mood before  and during the cycle.  That is a fact   Does anyone discuss this ever these days?   I doubt it.  It is another tabu but women and the men they live with know it.

However ,  a  highly educated woman such as this position requires with all this experience  can do extra nutritional things to help stay in the ego arena and out of the feelings.This is the place for the constitution, rational and facts...hopefully.   Liddy is crude and rude for this.  It shows his inferior emotional I Q to talk like this.

I am not familiar with the whole selection process but they should be tested by psychologists and medical doctors.  It is amazing we do not do this for all politicians.  We need mentally healthy people in such postions as much as physically healthy.  Look at what we have been getting because we don't.    Liars, cheats, embezzlers, murderers etc.  There are surely ways we can add something as a measure. I surely hate the fact that politicians make a career and Judges are for life.  People change and have different challenges in life which  can cause themto be irrational .

The pictures and this commentary is from : thearchetypalconnection.com

Women like men can get caught up in very destructive collective political, religious and social movements. According to Jung a negative animus in women often works like a group of inquisitional judges, e.g. psychological parts--ready to past a death sentence at any moment on those it deems at fault. Those possessed by the irrefutable judgments and irrational conclusions of a negative animus are a danger to themselves and others when they possess political power (a rarity in most patriarchal dominated societies).

The Chinese Cultural Revolution of late 1960's was a purge movement to discredit the intellectuals and eliminate all Western influence from China. Like the European witch hunts of the past, women turned on each other to save themselves from suspicion.   Some atrocities were committed by zealous young women caught up in party rhetoric----particularly in schools. 

Ironically, Mao's modernization of China freed women from the the strict codes of Confucianism only to be thrown back into it with the so-called 'Great Leap Forward' of the Cultural Revolution.  Without psychological reflection, the past is repeated. Perhaps fittingly enough a Red Guard female leader named Tan Houlan and her group ransacked Qufu (Confucius birthplace) and destroyed many traditional edifices. Below left is a group of Red Guards in formation.
