that she was nice enough to not express.

13. EXCELLENT! Thank You, Ms Gillibrand!
When the long arm of the government tries to force its way into my uterus, it is metaphorical rape, pure and simple. It is no less a frontal assault on my womanhood and a violation of my reproductive organs, than that which is perpetrated by a common criminal rapist. Likewise, I will fight this threat of invasion of my very "private parts" by the Feds, in the same way … as if my life depended on it. :grr:

18. This is GOP trying to return to their wedge issue, to block discussion of economy/jobs...
but, of course, this is the "Grand Ole Patriarchy" at work here --

and we should we asking why they so hate women -- shouldn't we?

40. "Grand Ole Patriarchy
This description may be true...but what about those GOP'ers who are women and assisting in this attack?

What label are we to place on the collaborators....Bahcman, Fox, and the other Republican women who will vote in favor of this blatant attack on the members of their own gender.

42. Well, that's a bit of confusion for some ... how women support right wing concepts ....
Edited on Thu Feb-10-11 02:50 PM by defendandprotect
and whether ALL men think they are part of patriarchy!

Certainly many women in the GOP support CHOICE --

I've really lost track of what their numbers are on that -- but many.

And, co-option of the Dem Party has also happened with there now being a

"pro-life" group -- and that became obvious a few months ago with STUPAK

holding up health care because he didn't want reproductive freedom in any

of the plans. In fact, the US Catholic Bishops met with Speaker Pelosi on

more than one occasion, I believe -- and Pelosi took a telphone call from

Rome!

HOWEVER --- Keep in mind that this is the Vatican's last ditch efforts to try

to control reproductive freedom -- to prevent the women of the nation from

controlling their own bodies -- and to prevent Catholic women from making their

own personal decisions re abortion. Once the RCC church loses control of

reproductive freedom, any remaining control they have over women, families and

private conscience and free will is ended. Not a good thing for a hierarchy!


But, overall, I would suggest that the females in the GOP are pretty much

being used as "African-Americans" in the GOP are used -- those like Clarence

Thomas who was willing to sell his soul and whom his own people call a "Judas" --

and a few others -- Armstrong Williams, of course, served them. Still more,

I can't think of at moment.

So -- whether gender or race -- same thing.


What label are we to place on the collaborators....Bahcman, Fox, and the other Republican women who will vote in favor of this blatant attack on the members of their own gender.

I'd suggest fascists -- it is, after all, the rise of the Fourth Reich ... is it not?

21. She's a pistol.
I wondered just who this woman was when she was appointed to fill out Hillary's term but I have been very impressed by her. Makes me want to move to NY so I can vote for her.

that the Republicans CARE what people want (unless they're corporate "people", of course)

38. The party of small government - just small enough...
- to fit into a woman's vagina.

(I can't take credit for this comment - I saw it on another site.)

Our answer to Sarah: A woman who can actually string words together in a logical fashion. And who looks pretty darn good, too.
