Well, I pick "completely retarded Republicans", because I maintain that "war on women" is useless grandstanding. I mean of course I don't agree that Republicans are completely retarded, since I am one. But I can accept that as a valid opinion. "War on women" is just ridiculous. Despite its risks, pregnancy is not the death sentence that pro choice people try to make it out to be, and so opposing abortion on demand is not a "war." It is equally absurd for the pro life side to try to call abortion "genocide" or a "holocaust" like some of them do.
"War on Women' plays very well for the Democrats. It helped them to win this election.
Republicans continue to play right into that strategy! Hyperbole or no - Republicans are not helping themselves by continuing to try and impose their will on a woman's body. It is NEVER going to win you an election - NEVER.
Even Newt says - leave reproductive rights OUT of the GOP agenda. Yet - here we are, again, with calls for forced transvaginal ultrasounds (way to go GOP); more talk of 'defunding' Planned Parenthood (we see how well that worked out for Mittens) AND new comments on 'legitimate rape' by older, white Republican males.
You guys are DOOMED to repeat the same mistakes if you don't wise up.

How is defunding PP imposing any will on women's body? Funding PP is women's body imposing their will on me. This is one of the most common sense things to defund in this economy.
Btw, Republicans lost the white house not because of either women or blacks but because of Hispanics. Romney, trying to win the Republican primary, came down hard on illegal immigrant and ended up losing the Hispanic vote in unprecedented numbers. When George Bush ran, he ran on a platform of cutting back Roe V Wade etc, but also amnesty, and he split the Hispanic vote and won the White House.

Actually Hispanics, Blacks, and Women had a majority vote against Romney, so you can pretend it was just the Hispanics, but facts don't lie.

Blacks will always vote democrat. That was true when George Bush won too.
Women lean slightly democrat, also true for George Bush. The Republican party can win as is, provided they also don't lose the Hispanic vote. Due to Catholcism among Hispanics, many of the stances Republicans take, such as abortion, are well liked by both women and male Hispanics. What they don't like is Republican's racism toward them but if perceived somewhat accommodating (like George Bush) they're split down the middle and Republicans win elections.
Does it make any sense to remove funding from family planning insitutions when we have one of the highest unwanted pregancy rates of any civilized country, who will pick up these services

The words stupify the massess. It's not whether the deed is good or not, it's whether the people want these services and whether taxes can fund them. Leave the BS tears for later and give me the truth.
We've turned into a nation of cry babies that knee jerk to stupid posts like these instead of asking the relevant questions. Manipulative thugs is what the left is. Thugs...

Now Hispanics will always vote Democrat, good job Republicans.
