I'm trying to figure out how you think this demonstrates a "war on women".
You need to articulate your point.
You forget the liberal perspective, Si. It demonstrates a war on women because a liberal says it does.
Good. Santorum is an idiot.Well one thing to consider is that with Santorum dropping out (which he is doing as we speak) it will be much harder to paint Romney with the Santorum brush. Without Santorum making stupid remarks all the time it's less ammo for the left to use against Romney and the GOP as a whole.

That's helpful. It proves you have no clue.
[why do fools post nonsence? Need for attention I suppose.]
If they were doing that arbitrarily, I would agree (except "war" is certainly hyperbole).Surely having women pay for their own use of contraceptives is a "war" agianst them.........
If you dummy down the idea of war by a few thousand percent and throw in a whole lot of wishful thinking........
Only this isn't arbitrary. It's a First Amendment protection granted every single US citizen and guaranteed by the Constitution.
So, it's more a "war on the Constitution", if one has to play the hyperbole game.
Is that dumbed down enough?

Contraception is protected by the first amendment ??? Surely in the "living" first amendment.......................... Too f***ing funny

Generally speaking when you attempt to point at the ignorance of others it's helpful to spell it correctly. Just saying.
Have you figured out how to articulate what the "war on women" is yet?Denial involves blocking external events from awareness. If some situation is just too much to handle, the person just refuses to experience it. As you might imagine, this is a primitive and dangerous defense - no one disregards reality and gets away with it for long! It can operate by itself or, more commonly, in combination with other, more subtle mechanisms that support it.

Of course not all of the 'echo chamber' suffers from Denial; many are simply so partisan they will not acknowledge anything which might poorly reflect on the fringe they support. In a word, they are Dishonest.

I mean, I can say "Obama is a moron", not articulate any reason why he is, then post definitions of denial whenever someone says he isn't.
It's simple logic. You make a claim and YOU support it with examples. Your claim doesn't stand because someone can't prove you wrong. And, it certainly doesn't stand because you keep posting denial information.
I'll wait for someone to articulate something of even minimal substance.
I'll still wait for someone, anyone, to articulate some sort of rationale how this is some "war on women". For those who believe it to be, surely they can say why.Have you figured out how to articulate what the "war on women" is yet?Denial involves blocking external events from awareness.

Consider the claim as a hypothesis, and the posts as evidence in its support.
Consider also the posts by those on your side of the aisle who deny climate change or those who call Obama a Marxist, Muslim, or foreign national.
Now, I've been told by Mrs. Catcher that I need to be ready to go shopping. Getting ready means getting my book (I now have a Kindle) so I don't rush her in her quest.

I would think you would be able to spin your highly partisan opinion much more effectively. Your 'argument' is laughable, posting statistics without context is insipid, and when the stats have no bearing on the issue at hand they convince only the dumbest partisans (do you really need to pander to the echo chamber?) that you posted something of substance.
There is no war on women. Though I know you wish there was.
.....1940.
"Wisconsin also enacted a bill that mandates teachers in schools that offer sex education must stress abstinence as the only sure way to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases."
"After a series of public embarrassments, and faced with polling data that suggests the GOP agenda is driving women toward the Democratic Party, Republicans may be tacitly acknowledging that kowtowing to their conservative base in an election year has some ugly ramifications.
But that doesnt mean theyre chastened. Theyre just hoping everyone forgets.
Congressional Republicans abandoned their push to roll back the Obama administrations contraception guarantee for female employees weeks ago. But now theyre hoping that they can wipe the crux of what Democrats have termed the GOP war on women off the books entirely."
The National Review? God, I love opinions of non-partisan resources!
Next, we'll see some lefty post something from the HuffPost or Media Matters!
I thought this thread dealt with the War on Women!!!??? But now I see the light, it's about the GOP's War on Black Women? Nooo, that's not it.
Why does race seem to constantly pop up?
When will you people stop digging?
*Sheesh!!*
WOW...
Because republicans opposed to taxpayer funded abortions/contraceptives republicans have raged war against woman???
Stop your fucking drama already.
As usual progressives are like babies - when mommy doesn't buy them what they want they throw a fit and cry...
Give me one good reason why I should pay for abortions or contraceptives???
In what universe is it my responsibility to care for those who have risky sex???
In what universe can the government tell another they need to cover that shit???
WTF...
