Good.

Then tell the liberals who claim that Republicans are waging a war on women to not be ridiculous.

My sister, aunt, and my good friend are all female Republicans and they would find the idea that war is being waged against them by the GOP to be absolutely absurd.

They most certainly are not at war against themselves.

You watch too much MSNBC.

Why don't you start thinking for yourself?

Being an independent critical thinker is much more satisfying then parroting what your liberal talking heads spoonfeed you.

Lots of assuming here.

Is this thread serious?I mean, I know RebelYell isn't to be taken seriously, but...seriously.

Frankly, I thik anyone whovoted for a Republican OR Democrat for national office needs to have their head examined.

Its funny, though, how many Republicans who, I guess, are supposed to be so moral and macho have been caught in men's restrooms with their pants around their ankles playing boy-meets-boy on the down low.

Many of the conservatives that I associate with don't watch much TV at all.

I don't own a television.

Instead we read books, print newspapers, and online viewpoints.

The result is that conservatives are much more informed and open minded than liberals - as a Pew survey found.

Quote:
The Pew survey adds to a wave of surveys and studies showing that GOP-sympathizers are better informed, more intellectually consistent, more open-minded, more empathetic and more receptive to criticism than their fellow Americans who support the Democratic Party.

In contrast, Democrats tend to resist any ideas that are not consistent with their current schema, which may be attributed to watching liberal media and not thinking critically about what they view and hear.

Quote:
In contrast, the Republican Party coalition is more consistent, and has few poorly educated people and fewer post-graduates.

Pew’s new study echoes the results of many other reports and studies that show GOP supporters are better educated, more empathetic and more open to criticism than Democrats.

A March 12 Pew study showed that Democrats are far more likely that conservatives to disconnect from people who disagree with them.
Waits for the liberals heads to explode.

Republican Women: Female GOP Politicians Look More Feminine, Congressional Physiognomy Study Suggests
So ... your idea of women to be proud of are women who are young and pretty and have sexy photos taken of themselves? Instead of women who are mature in age and are known for their intellect, important contributions to society, interesting and intellectual careers, and competence? (Fox News fictional talking points notwithstanding.)

I'd ask you if you're serious, but I suppose you are. Which is one reason why women don't take the GOP seriously. If that's who you value, you don't need to wage war on women. You just need to be yourselves.

I like getting news from a neutral source something other than the propaganda I get from msnbc,fox and cnn. I enjoy watching different news channels. I use libertariannews.org online to get my news as well...

I didn't that from MSNBC, which I rarely watch and can't tell you the last time I have. I get a lot more of that from Fox News and right-wing talk radio. Oh and you CD posters do a very good job of supporting exactly what I said. This thread is an example and there are thousands more just like it.
