BIDENS’ SAGA: OH, BROTHER

-

crew the “Day Without a Woman” protest. Instead, how about a “Day Without a Woman Screwing.” Or week, or month. Screw those angry white men to whom we’ve handed all the power — or better yet, don’t.

Women need another big show of marching around in pink hats without anything happening afterwards like we need more cellulite. If we want action, we stop the action. The Lysistrata move in real life.

I’m sorry, but the Day Without a Woman protests on March 8 will only end up with wealthy ladies taking the day off to protest while the women who work their asses off cleaning their houses, caring for their kids and every other bythe-hour day work won’t be able to do the same because their bosses will be out protesting. That’s fancy lean-in thinking instead of downand-dirty don’t-you-dare-lean-onme action.

American women have been screwed around long enough and now — because we let it happen — we’re about to get the royal screwing of our lives via the Trump administra­tion. No? Women outnumber men in the U.S. but we elected a man who appointed an almost all-male, white cabinet full of anti-women’s rights right-wingers, creationis­ts, sexists, moguls and maniacs.

Aren’t we at least as liberated, tough and enlightene­d as the women of Liberia or even the 17thcentur­y women of the Iroquois nation? No.

Look at the take-no-prisoners Iroquois women. They carried out the first known women’s equality strike in North America by withholdin­g sex, food and supplies from men until they got an equal voice and veto power on all wars. And they didn’t even wear pink p--y hats.

Let’s face it, ever since Roe v. Wade 43 years ago, men in power and the men who keep them there have played us like cheap guitars by threatenin­g to take away the one right they gave us. And women fell for it every time instead of demanding the next step, an Equal Rights Amendment. No, we don’t have equal rights under the law because we’ve been too busy acting like a mass of wimpy whiners. “Please, please don’t take away abortion — please, sirs!” Screw that. Or don’t.

The good old-fashioned sex strike isn’t even as old-fashioned as you think. In this century alone, it’s happened nearly a dozen times. In 2001, the women in Siirt, Turkey pulled a Lysistrata against the unclean water there. It took a month for the pipes to be repaired.

It worked in Liberia in 2002, helping to end the 14-year war, which resulted in the election of the first female head of state. Americans haven’t accomplish­ed that either — yet.

Since 2009, women have crossed their legs in Colombia, Kenya, Ukraine, the Philippine­s, Togo and yes, Canada, and all worked mostly to good effect.

Unfortunat­ely in Tokyo in 2014, “The associatio­n of women who will not have sex with men who vote for Masuzoe” didn’t stop sexist Yoichi Masuzoe from being elected governor. But it didn’t hurt either. Two years later, the bum resigned in disgrace.

Hit ’em wear it hurts — and screw the pink p---y hats. Why didn’t she just call Charlie Sheen if she wanted to have a drugaddled, prostie-paying, escort-loving, wasted wreck as a lover?

Instead, like something out of the court of Henry VIII, former Vice President Joe Biden’s daughter-in-law Hallie Biden, the widow of his late son, former Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, took up with Beau’s brother Hunter.

Hunter (photo), who’d denied he was registered with cheater site Ashley Madison in 2015, washed out of the Navy Reserves in 2014 for using cocaine. At least Hunter was honest back then when he released a statement saying he had his family’s love and support in moving forward. A few years later he did just that and moved forward with his dead brother’s wife. His current wife has accused him of spending lavishly on hookers, strippers and drugs.

No wonder his dead brother’s grieving widow found him to be such a catch. Who wouldn’t? Drugs, sex and rock the vote.

Just reading about it is enough to make you put paper down on the seat.
