    Its called pandering to the Christian right. They’re trying to recreate the 2004 election that gave War Shrub the victory (remember Donkey face said he was for gay marriage and wanted to legalize it). Rather than talk about the issues since they have none (Rodney wants to bring back Medicare savings which pays insurance companies rather than beneficiaries) its easier to bring up abortion and issues that have no end.

    First you say “Yet the group mentality of the Donkey is more then happy to fan the flame of ignorance and try to paint everyone on the other side with a big big brush.” Then you paint liberals with a broad brush by saying “Most of the liberals are a group mentality…” Is such behavior only unacceptable when you aren’t doing it?

    Harley, the real “issue” is that idiot “shooting his mouth off” was only stating the same thing coming from thousands of pulpits, televangelists, abortion opponents, and from many “conswervative” candidates, for decades, and then they throw in the “sin” of skinny dipping as opposed to RAPE????

    You can’t smash enough watermelons to make this any less hilarious!

    Texas Republican controlled government has “un-fuded” Planned Parenthood. Want to give us that line about not degrading women’s rights again?

    ‘interesting how one idiot can shoot off his mouth, Most of the elephants say “dude you do not speak for us” . ’-Grover Norquist doesn’t speak for ‘all of us’?-What about Rush Limbaugh?-Mitch McConnell?-40 Republican votes for every filibuster?-Repeal ACA 32 times?-Government can’t create jobs?-Don’t tax the job creators?-Nope, no groupthink there. None whatsoever. They all arrived at the same conclusion every single time. What are the odds? -Maybe you can explain the distance between the philosophies of Akin and Ryan.

    But if you were actually as smart as you think you are you’d quickly realize that the GOP is not concerned with the rights of women. It might not make you vote for Obama, but if you expect respect as a woman, you’d be loathe to vote for Romney/Ryan. However, if you are content to be a second class citizen, wish to let the government decide how you can obtain and use birth control and are not worried about equal wages, then the GOP is the party for you!
