Time for Sharron Angle to "women up"
"Republican Sharron Angle again called on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to "man up" and take responsibility for the state's woes as she embraced a new campaign phrase plucked from Nevada's only U.S. Senate race debate."

Let's ignore Angle's role in her states woes, I mean she was part of the states government from 1999-2007. In many ways state legislators have more to do with state budgets than US senators.

Let's instead focus on her views of women. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharron_Angle

So she believes that when one person works outside the home that is the best way to raise a family. Angle is pro-life and opposes abortion, including in cases of rape or incest. Angle had proposed a bill that "would have required doctors to inform women seeking abortions about a controversial (complete BS) theory linking an increased risk of breast cancer with abortion". That's ok because she doesn't worry about the science behind climate change (that's made up according to her). Well jeepers Abortion is all controversial how about something not. Angle told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that, as a state legislator, she had sponsored a bill to remove the requirement that health insurers cover mammograms. Well I guess that's alright as long as you can get government coverage, wait she wants to privatize medicare. Sounds like an odd position for someone sooooo worried about all that abortion turning into breast cancer. She wants to turn America back from Obama's policies. Does this included Obama's equal pay legislation? Who knows she rarely gets in front of the press to ask.

Angle stated that a "militant terrorist situation" had taken hold of parts of the United States, and alleged that it had allowed Islamic law to take over parts of the country. Strict conservative Religious laws can be harsh in there treatment of women. Glad she stands up against this. Oh wait Angle does not believe that the United States Constitution mandates the separation of church and state. Huh? What's she complaining about then :) Worried about getting stone to death in accordance with biblical law, that's constitutional in Angles future America.

Maybe Angle should "man up" and accept blame as a former state legislator just before the economic meltdown for her current state's woes and then "women up" an accept that women deserve equal respect in America. No just women running as GOP for office, but all the women she would represent as an American senator too.

It's not a wrestling match, we need somebody smart. And she ain't it.
