I thank you for writing this. I would add that Phil Donahue, originally from Dayton, Ohio, got started with his TV show in Ohio and then hit the big time in Chicago and it was he who helped destroy the American people by putting all kinds of twisted people with twisted ideas in front of American women five days a week in the AM. He had a studio audience and a call-in audience and all the rest who watched TV from their home. If anybody in his studio audience or anybody who called in expressed objections to the filth he pushed he shouted them down to humiliate them publicly so they wouldn't do that again and neither would the others who just watched it happen.

Phil graded the road that the harridans on "The View" later widened into a four-lane highway.

I know how it worked because I was a stay-at-home wife and mother and I saw it play out all the time. Phil

Donahue had been a Catholic and was married with a number of sons. He became divorced and a few years later he had Feminazi Marlo Thomas on his show and they became involved and then married. She was one of the celebrities that pushed women's lib aggressively in those days and was involved with the putting out a book for kids that promoted many of the lefty feminist views. It was called FREE TO BE YOU AND ME. We owned it and I read it. Sorry to say my mother bought it for my kids. Get to the kids, get them while they're young and brainwash them when they're young. We see the results all around us. Phil also brought on the bra-burning women in that era. He brought on a man who pretended to be a woman and his "mate" who was a woman pretending to be a man. It was a freak show
