Republicans Brought the Gender Gap Upon Themselves

It is astonishing that Republicans
would expect women, of any political persuasion, to give up free
contraception benefits so they have
no expense involved in their sexual
activities.
It is more astonishing that Republicans would expect women
to give up the ability to terminate a bothersome pregnancy.
No wonder intelligent people are
going to vote for the Democrats,
who understand why we don't have to take responsibility for these decisions.

When your #1 concern is if, how, when , and where you can kill the child in your womb...then you get the leader you deserve.
Its a sad day when people who speak out against such an unimaginable horror are the bad guys--but what you dont understand is that if these voices of reason did not oppose this madness -- they would be pulling babies heads apart with forceps minutes before they come to term.
Ever wonder why these liberals charitable givings are always like 27 bucks? You got what you paid for. Liars who say they care, give nothing, and accuse those who are nothing like them--all the livelong day proclaiming their own self righteousness. You all deserve each other but know for sure..you wont be able to talk your way out of your deeds. Enjoy your pretending for a little while.

what i would ad to what miss. Marshall has eloquently stated in her post.is Is that along with blacks,and hispanic's,the republicans can now ad a large segment of women to the groups that they;ve managed to alienate
it begg's the question,if the numbers stay the same, what voting block are the republicans counting on to propel them into power.

Ummm.... Let Me See....
A woman wants to have sex for fun - I get it. No problem. Just don't kill your baby afterward because you couldn't control your urge and are totally irresponsible for your actions.
However, now it's not enough to accept your hedonism - you want someone else to pay for your pleasure as well.
I suppose if you want to go exercise I should pay for that. Maybe I should even subsidize you to eat "organic".
Tell you what Leslie, why don't you and other Progressive women just publish a manifesto of your wants, desires, and needs that you want other folks to pay for - Then I'll take up a collection.
I thought it was about,"I am WOMAN - Hear me roar!" Sounds to me like, "I am woman - Hear me whine."
