The GOP and women's rights.

Are the Republicans/conservatives conducting a legislative "war on women"? You Bet'cha!


Republican "War On Women" Is Not A Left-Wing Invention | Media Matters for America

"MEDIA MATTERS" as a source? Why not just use Mein Kompf or an old copy of Pravda?

Well for starters, one was a Nazi and the other Communist. Media Matters QUOTES the right wing bullhorn AND THEN PRODUCES THE ACTUAL DOCUMENTED FACTS THAT CONTRADICT THEM.

Let me know when you grow a pair and actually READ the material presented, chuckles. Then we'll talk.

 

[taichiliberal]

Content schmontent....Propaganda from unabashed propagandists is still propaganda.

You'd believe Goebbels if he had a (D) by his name.

And as we can see, folks....Oddball cannot deal with any FACTS that dispute/disprove his neocon/teabagger vision of the world. So unless he's willing to discuss the actual content of my link or my statement in the OP, Oddball just becomes an attention seeking crank who is no longer worth responding to here.

God help the mother/wife/daughter/girl friend of men like Oddball who support the dreck listed in the linked article.

Look if you dont know much about politics know this. Quoting media matters, huffington post, daily kos, is like a republican quoting rush limbaugh, sean hannity or red state. Media Matters is a joke, they're a leftwing orginization that attacks republicans nonstop and NEVER criticises liberals. Sorry not buying the shit they're shoveling.

And yet Bucky boy doesn't have the balls or the brains to actually READ the material contained in the link!

If Bucky boy and the rest of the dead head neocon/teabaggers on this thread were so sure of their accusations of Media Matters, then they should be able to easily disprove the information put forth on the OP. But we know better, don't we folks?

 

[Rinata]

The only war going on is the one from Progressives-Democrats-Communist with the Dear Leader at the helm...AND it is AGAINST US AMERCIAN PEOPLE

wake up people

How would you know??? When was the last time you read anything besides the National Enquirerer??

 

[taichiliberal]

I love the OP, in one thread she accuses me of being a right wing robot of talk radio, but I never use them as sources. I think they know their stuff, but I like independant verification of facts AND THEN she quotes media matters. Talk about projection!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, YOU DON'T USE ANY SOURCES, my willfully ignorant neocon BuckEye. In fact, YOU don't use any source material....you just blow smoke and treat your opinion, supposition and conjecture as FACT.

See, the thing is that you are Buck eyed intellectually dishonest......you don't DARE actually engage in an honest debate based on FACTS and the logic derived from those facts. Instead, you just spew the jargon and mantras that can be found on any right wing broadcast or publication.

I DARE YOU to actually read the information I sourced, and then DEBATE the material in relation to the OP. I DARE YOU to actually site your source material for your opposing view.

If you can't, then you're just full of it as suspected.

 

[taichiliberal]

Looks more like a war on abortion a war on Planned Parenthood and a war on regulation.

That MM wants to paint that as a war on women is such a stretch.

Translation: "Listening" doesn't DARE read the material contained in the Media Matters link, because he cannot logically or factually disprove or refute it. So instead, he just bleats neocon/teabagger mantras based on nothing but supposition, conjecture, half truths, distortions and opinions.

yeah I mean the democrats have a war on children. Abortion, sex ed, global warming, ect. If kids are actually born, they then can never be kids and have to be indoctrinated into good little robots to follow their leaders (sound kind of stalinist or hitleresque). Next thing our prez will have his picture on the flag and will sing songs about him.....ooops, that crap is going on!!!!!

Elementary School Students Taught Pro-Obama Songs - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

I like this quote the most:
Fox is reporting that Christopher M. Manno, the superintendent of Burlington Township School District, issued a statement to parents saying the students were singing the song "to honor the contributions of African Americans to our country" in conjunction with February's Black History Month.

And please explain to everyone how these two stories have to do with the INVASIVE AND ANTI-CONSTITUTIONAL LAWS being passed in red states regarding women's rights? Or are you such a wussy that you just can't handle the truth in the OP link?


PS....one idiot with an Obama flag and a one time song regarding black history month is NOT the socialist/communist/fascist/muslim/racist take over of the country your right wing bloggers have been screaming about since the 2008 campaign. Your source material seems panicky, but can't prove anything beyond two INDIVIDUAL, SPECIFIC stories.

 

[taichiliberal]

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.

How is CHOICE, government control, genius?

And as the FACTS show, it's the GOP who are trying to "control" women's reproductive rights. But hey, YOU'RE okay with that, right bunky?

 

[taichiliberal]

Republican governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin quietly signed a bill that overturned The Equal Pay Enforcement Act of 2009, allowing for easier discrimination and continuing the War on Women.The Equal Pay Enforcement Act was designed to discourage employers from discriminating against certain groups and give individuals, who were discriminated against in the work force, more avenues to press charges against employers who discriminate.
The bill, titled SB202, which Walker signed on Thursday without informing the public, overturns all of that.
Women make 75 cents for every dollar men make in Wisconsin and 77 cents nationally for every dollar men earn.

AGain more rules that are unnecessary. How do we know these pay figures? Do they include women taking time off for maternity leave? Do they include differences in experience and hazard pay that men may have? One thing I've learned is once democrats settle on a figure, it's either made up or there is something omitted.

Your willful ignorance knows no bounds.

Check the Census Bureau, who back up the stats regarding pay figures, you twit. That's just ONE avenue of information.

Are you one of those vindictive little creeps who hates that a woman can push the same amount of paper that a man can? And are you to punish and penalize women for maternity leave, and then bitch about unemployment insurance and welfare?

WTF is the matter with you? You don't even know WTF you're talking about because AS DEMONSTRATED HERE YOU DON'T READ ANYTHING OTHER THAN A TITLE OR HEADLINE.

God help any woman involved or related to you.

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.

Oh, really? "The same R's", is it? Please tell me which Republican in EITHER house of Congress has been there since 1920, much less "opposed women's rights" the whole time.

If you can't say something intelligent, don't talk.

 

[Cecilie1200]

When the source is a confirmed shameless propagandist, it can be dismissed out of hand regardless of the alleged content.

Tell us how you'd react to something posted at World Nut Daily, hmmmmmm?

I have and continued to discuss the CONTENT of any post put forth by anyone on these threads in the last 2 years.

You and your compadres have neither the guts, brains or honesty to do the same, as you demonstrate with each dodge and smokescreen you put forth here.

Grow a pair, my Odd little man, and discuss the CONTENT of my links, using facts and logic to prove me/it wrong. IF what you assert is true, then what I request should be a snap. I'll wait.

There's a way around that. Usually such sites will link to the original article, which most would find more palatable.

Or you dipshit leftists could stop wasting everyone's time with your threads based on someone's Internet opinion column. We don't care about YOUR opinions, and we're talking to you. Why would we give a fuck about the opinion of someone who's not even on the board?

 

[Cecilie1200]

Oh, you need a shower, period. Don't go blaming the link.

So what is your excuse ?

Can't decide if it's that she NEEDS a douche, or that she IS one.

Republicans state mandated rape in Texas

A woman is forced to endure a medical procedure likened to rape. No, it's not Egypt, where army doctors are accused of subjecting protesters to grotesque "virginity tests".
Instead it's Texas, where a controversial law, signed last year by failed Republican presidential candidate Governor Rick Perry, took effect in February.
Aimed at women who seek abortions, a legal right since 1973, the "Sonogram Bill" compels doctors to describe, and patients to listen to, a description of the fetus revealed by an ultrasound.
"A patient must make two visits," explains Rochelle Tafolla, a spokeswoman for Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast.
"During the first visit the doctor who is going to perform the abortion must perform the ultrasound. The doctor must display the ultrasound image to the woman. She can look away but the doctor must describe the image. If there is cardiac activity that suggests a heartbeat the doctor is required to turn up the audio so the woman can hear it."
This invasive procedure involves inserting an ultrasound device, or "wand", into the vagina to get a clear image of the fetus and detect any heartbeat in the first 12 weeks of a pregnancy, when most American women seek abortions.

How is that rape ?

You are a brain dead moron.

Your mother/wife/sister/girlfriend/aunt/cousin goes into a doctor's office for an ELECTIVE procedure, and the STATE declares that she has NO CHOICE but to have a camera tube put into her.

Forcing a woman to have something inserted into her vagina....sounds like rape to me. But hey, since the GOV'T is ENFORCING YOUR PERSONAL RELIGIOUS/SOCIAL BELIEFS on a woman, then it's okay by you, right bunky?

I picked up a RUMOR (RUMOR) that our school district is going to give extra credit to kids who dress in muslim type garb and learn certain aspects of their faith........

LOL, I thought they wanted seperation of church and state? MAn I need to come in with a nativity scene, that'll freak em out!!!!!!!!!!!

What you do is come in in an Arabic robe with a long beard, and when they congratulate you on your Muslim garb, say, "Muslim? No, I'm Jesus Christ."

Hundreds of women have locked arms and stood mute outside the Virginia State Capitol to protest a wave of anti-abortion legislation coursing through the 2012 General Assembly. Capitol and state police officers, there to ensure order, estimated the crowd to be more than 1,000 people — mostly women. The crowd formed a human cordon through which legislators walked before Monday’s floor sessions of the Republican-controlled legislature. The group was protesting bills that would cut off state aid to poor women seeking abortions, define embryos as humans and criminalize their destruction, and require “transvaginal” ultrasounds of women seeking abortions. In the procedure, a wand-like device is inserted and used to send out sound waves. None of the protesters carried posters. Few spoke, even when spoken to. Richmond resident Molly Vick wore a shirt that read, “Say no to state mandated rape.”

hundreds? That's it? I figured with the democratic on demand protest team they could haul in 5 figures! What's wrong with requiring an ultrasound before you kill your baby. Seems like a small price to pay. You cant unabort something.

Hundreds of women, he says? How many adult women are there in this country? And yet a couple hundred screeching, hairy-legged viragos are said to be the voice of all of us, and we're all lumped into wanting and thinking the same things, simply by virtue of having similar reproductive systems to them?

A war on baby-killing is only a "war on women" if one assumes that all women think killing their babies is a spiffy idea. Otherwise, it's just a war on baby-killing, and as the left keeps telling us, those without uteruses - like Chris - should shut the fuck up and butt out.

Arizona Republicans want to force women to reveal to their boss whether they are having sex or not....

PHOENIX — Women in Arizona trying to get reimbursed for birth control drugs through their employer-provided health plan could be required to prove that they are taking it for a medical reason such as acne, rather than to prevent pregnancy.A bill nearing passage in the Republican-led Legislature allows all employers, not just religious institutions, to opt out of providing contraceptive coverage when doing so would violate their religious or moral beliefs.When a female worker uses birth control pills, which can be used to treat a number of medical conditions, the bill would allow an employer who opted out to require her to reveal what she was taking it for in order to get reimbursed.

What's wrong with that? Viagra was invented for a heart medication. Birth control helps with issues of irregular periods and some diabetes issues. I think if it's a legitimate reason, yeah cover it. If it's for sex, DENY. Pay for your own fun stuff. Health insurance is to make sure you're ok, not to make sure you get laid.

Quite the little fascist flunky, aren't you Bucky? Newsflash for ya, NO MAN IS REQUIRED TO DIVULGE HIS SEX LIFE TO HIS BOSS REGARDLESS WHETHER HE'S GETTING VIAGRA OR NOT, OR A PENILE IMPLANT, for that matter.

But misogynist sure as hell want to control women. Jeezus, the hypocrisy of these "small gov't " types is astounding!

It's not like there isn't precedent for turning down treatments based on why you're getting them. My insurance used to cover my depo provera shots as birth control. Now that I don't need them for that, and just want them because I don't like having periods, I have to pay for them out-of-pocket. You don't see ME pitching a hissy fit at the insurance company over it.

Thanks for proving that you are a left wing myrmidon. Media Matters? The IRS is investigating whether they should be able to call themselves a non proffit or a political org.
Quoting them is like taking dictation from the daily Kos.
touchyliberal indeed.

It's TAI-CHI-LIBERAL you neocon numbskull. Learn to read and/or spell. Then get an adult near you to explain what taichi is all about.

And like your dimwitted cohorts, grow a pair and discuss the content rather than trying to discredit the source alone. Whether non-profit or a political organization, the FACTS they report don't change. When you can disprove the information contained, then we'll talk.

Vaginal penetration against the will.....the very definition of rape.

Horsecrap....you chose to have an abortion...you get what comes with it.

Don't want the exam....then have the kid.

Yes, and just as soon as you have a uterus, your opinion will matter - as it applies to YOUR uterus.

Call me when you tell a leftist to butt out of the same conversation for the same reason, hypocrite.

Walker making it more difficult for women to sue to get equal pay for equal work and now Arizonia is reportedly considering legislation that would make it legal for doctors to lie to their women patients in order to prevent an abortion ...

I'm against abortion (in favor of equal pay for equal work) and even I can see that Romney ids going to have to distance himself from this stuff to crack into Obama's lead among women.

Romney has the support of a lot of women. He will need more.

What is more important is that the GOP get away from these issues (which don't impact a lot of women personally) and get back to the basics of the economy (which impact a lot more of them).

Which is exactly why THE LEFT keeps bringing this shit up, and then babbling about how they're "GOP issues". If they're our issues, why aren't we the ones introducing them into the debate?
