    Of course you'd never consider what they said or how illogical it for a woman to represent a party that hates women. You'd rather just run with this childish campaign of clichés that Obama is engaged in.

    Again as I said, there are already laws on the books covering all of the issues you raised. Smart women SHOULD vote as they did. As strong, independent conservative women know, the life of Julia being tethered to the federal government from cradle to grave is not empowering. I'm surprised you think so little of women that you think they have to have Obama's help to survive.

    Hello again, Steve:

    Nahhh... Talk, talk, talk... Just like the Republican women.. It doesn't change the TRUTH...

    The Lilly Ledbetter law was a direct answer to the Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. A U.S. Supreme Court decision holding that the statute of limitations for presenting an equal-pay lawsuit begins on the date that the employer makes the initial discriminatory wage decision, not at the date of the most recent paycheck, as a lower court had ruled.

    You DO understand that the lower court ruling CHEATED women out of equal pay for equal work. That's just so... And, ALL of your Republican women voted against it.

    You do understand that decision has nothing to do with the Equal Pay Act. She sued under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. She had 3 years to sue under the Equal Pay Act and 4 years under 42 U.S.C. 1981. Why did it need to be expanded to the Civil Rights Act also?

    Like I said there were already laws on the books. Now there are three.

    P.S. Let's see who comes out to defend S.E. Cupp after Hustler published an explicit, humiliating, degrading, Photoshopped image and criticized her conservative leanings.

    There is no war on women, women think they are a special species that should have privileges, they are not

    Just ask the White House and Senate Democrats.

    Senate Dems Betray Lilly

    Senate Democrats pay female staffers less than male staffers

    I guess conservatives are busy reading Hustler. Good family values to be found there. LOL!

    Um, the source was Mediate, not Hustler. But I'm not surprised you would ignorantly mock conservatives instead of denouncing Hustler for their smear of a conservative woman. Priorities, right?

    Someone read Hustler to find something that was offensive to conservatives.
    Personally Hustler can print any damn thing it wants, it can say that Obama is gay or that liberals eat babies. The people that get their opinions from there are irrelevant to me.
    Once again the easily offended get offended easily.

    What part of Mediate read Hustler so we don't have to don't you understand?

    So you publish a doctored photo of Nancy Pelosi with a penis in her mouth and let's see if no one gets offended.

    Do it in your regular nasty porn mag and see what happens.
    If they are offended by that and not by the pink spreads then there's something wrong, no?

    You can stay on the wrong side of this all you want, but for once even Planned Parenthood gets it right.

    Planned Parenthood, Sandra Fluke condemn Hustler for S.E. Cupp image
    3:04 PM 05/23/2012
    ADVERTISEMENT

    The Planned Parenthood Action Fund and Sandra Fluke have condemned Hustler Magazine's treatment of conservative commentator S.E. Cupp.

    The most recent issue of Hustler reportedly features a fake image of Cupp with a phallus in her mouth, citing her opposition to abortion and Planned Parenthood as reasons for the image.

    “S.E. Cupp is a lovely young lady who read too much Ayn Rand in high school and ended up joining the dark side,” the caption reads. “Cupp, an author and media commentator who often shows up on Fox News programs, is undeniably cute. But her hotness is diminished when she espouses dumb ideas like defunding Planned Parenthood. Perhaps the method pictured here is Ms. Cupp's suggestion for avoiding an unwanted pregnancy.”

    Wednesday afternoon both Planned Parenthood Action Fund (the self-described political arm of Planned Parenthood) and contraception activist Sandra Fluke tweeted in support of Cupp.

    Sexist attacks made against women like @SandraFluke and recently @secupp are disgraceful and cannot be tolerated Explicit Image Of S.E. Cupp (It's A Fake) In Hustler Magazine Sparks Outrage | Mediaite PPAF tweeted.

    “.@HustlerMag depiction of @secupp so offensive. Sexualization of female public figs attempts 2 limit them 2 being sexual figures & not more,” Fluke added.

    Cupp responded to the image on Glenn Beck's radio program Wednesday.

    “It's uncomfortable. I'm not in this business to talk about myself, I'm not in this business to talk about my character,” she said in part. “I'd much rather be talking about Obama's economic record or his foreign policy than myself and having to defend myself against [this photo].”

    Hustler did not respond to The Daily Caller's request for comment.
    Go ahead, you tolerate this disgraceful attack on a fine, intelligent, beautiful woman. I won't.

    Almost forgot this one, "Donna Dewitt, the president of the South Carolina AFL-CIO, takes a baseball bat to a piñata featuring" Gov. Nikki Haley's face.

    Yep, those darn Republicans sure are waging a war on women.

    Live Action visited some more abortion clinics and not only captured them encouraging gender-selective abortions, but how to defraud Medicaid in the process.



    Quote:

    “In this video, what is astounding is that Rebecca, the Planned Parenthood counselor, starts arranging with the actor about how to get a late-term abortion,” Rose said. “To wait until her pregnancy is so developed that — and using Medicaid for this, using the state to pay for the ultrasound to determine the gender, and then to do a late term abortion if it was a little girl.”
    First accepting funds for race-based abortions, now PP encouraging late term abortions of girls while defrauding Medicaid. There's your war on women.

    Hello again, Steve:

    We're not in the same ballpark when you equate a political stunt to passing LAWS that restrict women's rights... YOUR balance is about as balanced as FOX News is balanced.. Which is to say, not really balanced at all.

    Is your video done by the same guy who dressed up as a pimp?? The one who's been discredited??

    So you're saying that gender bias against girls - encouraged by the left's favorite group, PP - isn't a problem in the U.S. and that targeting females for abortion isn't a war on women? Dude, if killing off the gender isn't a war on women I can't imagine what else could possible qualify. Kind of stupid to worry about women's rights if you're systematically eliminating them.
