The GOP and women's rights.

[BDBoop]

In 2011 over 600 anti choice bills were introduced at the state level by Republicans.

From the Center for Reproductive Rights' 2010-11 annual report:

"The Center is hard-pressed to cite a time in the last twenty years that can rival -- in volume and in severity -- this most recent period of anti-woman, anti-child, and anti-health legislative action in the United States."

Chris stop with that crap. The only thing your pro choice on is abortion and maybe same sex boinking. Other than that you want the govenrment to control us.

That's right. Let's talk about "choice" for a minute. What about the "choice" to: own a gun, hunt, eat meat, drive an SUV, be independent, self-reliant, defend ourselves, protect our property at the end of a gun if necessary, the choice to purchase medical insurance or not of our choice, and many other "choices" which the liberals don't want people to have. The only "choices" the liberals bitch about are being able to kill your unborn child, but NOT some piece of shit who just murdered someone in cold blood, to be able to marry your same gender, even cousin, and well, that's it.

Oh, look more *FECAL Santorum.

Anybody miss his sorry ass yet?

Since you've already acknowledged that YOU will not compeletely read the material that is the topic of the discussion, that makes anything you say on the subject irrelevent.

Not only are you not "listening", but you're not "reading" as well....that makes YOU willfully ignorant, Listy....a common trait necessary for neocons and teabaggers. So until you can actually discuss the content of the information provided in the OP, I'll just ignore your silly ass and watch you stamp your widdle feet and stick your tongue out. Carry on.

And because you continually make stuff up to argue aganst............

Which part of this is made up?

1) Republicans not only want to reduce women's access to abortion care, they're actually trying to redefine rape. After a major backlash, they promised to stop. But they haven't yet. Shocker.

5) In Congress, Republicans have a bill that would let hospitals allow a woman to die rather than perform an abortion necessary to save her life.

Careful, you're using FACTS that contradicts the neocon/teabagger rhetoric Listy and company hold so dear. So in order to IGNORE those facts, they just look at the source of the information and then REFUSE to READ/ACKNOWLEDGE the information.

Willful ignorance is the religion of new conservatives and Tea Party members...insipid stubborness their practice.

Article [XIX].

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Ratification was completed on August 18, 1920.

Woman voters matter ... at least since 1920 and only after the same Rs who opposed women's rights then as now that tried to prevent it.

You do realize that the 19th Amendment was passed by the Senate with 36 Republicans and 20 Democrats voting in favor and 8 Republicans and 17 Democrats voting against? The 19th Amendment was passed thanks to Republican votes and the strongest opposition came from Democratic Senators.

No one is disputing that....the point is that the GOP currently is operating in reverse of it's predecessors decisions on this subject. Case in point:

A Wisconsin law that made it easier for victims of wage discrimination to have their day in court was repealed on Thursday, after Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) quietly signed the bill.

The 2009 Equal Pay Enforcement Act was meant to deter employers from discriminating against certain groups by giving workers more avenues via which to press charges. Among other provisions, it allows individuals to plead their cases in the less costly, more accessible state circuit court system, rather than just in federal court.

In November, the state Senate approved SB 202, which rolled back this provision. On February, the Assembly did the same. Both were party-line votes in Republican-controlled chambers.

Then women should have no problem helping the dems oust the sexist bastards in the next election cycle.

If they don't, then you can pretty much figure that women decided this isn't such a big deal or that there are other matters more pressing.

Walker has nothing to gain by doing this if his only motivation is what you claim.

Your post is just another fart in the hurricane.

As usual, Listy posts without sufficient knowledge of the current situation. Currently, Gov. Walker is looking down the barrel of a recall vote that looks shaky for him

Well, beyond that...the liberal bastion of Wyoming was giving women the right to vote in local elections 50 years prior to the passage of the 19th.

Oh, how it sucks for liberals that history does not fit their "reality".

What sucks is that Republicans who voted the vote for women then would today be called RINOs or worse by the Republican Party which worked very hard to defeat passage of the Equal Rights Amendment.

What really sucks is those Republicans would today be called RINOs by the extreme Conservatives who today control the former Grand Olde Party.

Try living in the real world.

What if they are? Commies, I mean. That doesn't negate the fact that legislators in several states aren't trying to pass ridiculous invasive procedures for "screening" prior to terminating a pregnancy nor the outrageous new law in Arizona where life begins two weeks before conception (AllGov - News - Arizona Law Declares Life Begins before Conception: Update)

Now does it? You must be 20 years post-menopausal with no daughters to be so blind as you appear to be.

My point exactly... are you telling me at this moment women can't buy contraceptives, or not buy contraceptives, or have a baby, or not have a baby, an abortion, or not have an abortion, or screw 10 guys in one day, or not screw even one guy in 10 days?

So much for the GOP war on women.

It's not so much the GOP as the strangle-hold that the rightwing evangelical unibrows have on the GOP, as illustrated by Medieval Man (Santorum) getting as far along in the primaries as he did before the rightwing evangelical unibrows gave in to the LDS Church and the Quorum of Twelve who can buy and sell this country ten times over....but I digress.

Great response.. right on target. A simple response to my point would have been nice.... but hey, act like a condescending douche if that's what works for you.. or, answer the questions..... you goofballs throw out these asinine terms like "GOP war on women" and never, NEVER provide one instance where a Republican has denied a woman's right to do ANYTHING.

 

[JoeB131]

Economy recovering.....check

Al Qaeda destroyed.....check

What will the Republicans run on?

Anticontraception????

Check.

You'll notice that the democrats are not running on Obama's record. Even the left acknowledges that.

But the right is going to run on his record.

The contraception issue is already dead (Sanda Fluke has flammed out).

You are a moron with a wet dream.

And Obama is a one termer.

After correcting Chris' nonsense, I have to correct yours.

The economy sucks. But most people realize that it's really beyond the control of any one President. Polls have shown that no one really thinks this election is going to change the economic dynamic that much, no matter who they support.

I think the economy sucks, but most people are fair and realize Obama has done about as much as he could do about it. (It's really a global problem, not an American one, as wealth transfers from the West to the East.)

In the end, I think the thing is that things are bad, not as bad as they were, but Romney really doesn't make the connection a Reagan did. He doesn't connect with people the way Ronnie did.
