We are supposed to believe two things about women now:

1) They are ignorant of politics and are easily manipulated
2) They can be lead to believe that if they do not get free birth control, then their rights are violated

Republicans do not like pandering, because it demeans the people you pander to, as if their principles and morals are for sale.
Bingo..minorities are to stupid to get ID's and women are too stupid to know anything beyond sex and the youth are too stupid to pay back their student loans. And it's all the GOP's fault.

The Dems don't think much of their constituents do they ?

OH..... MY...... GAWD! LMAO!

Republicans do not like pandering? Boy, they sure are going out of their way to "demean" the religious whackos they pander to, aren't they?

How can you say this with a straight face? The Republican Party has lost most of its credibility by pandering to evangelicals.

Well, according to the Republican Party, women are too stupid to make their own healthcare decisions.....government has to step in between women and their doctors to "protect" them.

Hell, even gotta show women an ultrasound of a fetus because they have no idea what one is. You're right, I guess women are stupid.

The Rebugs don't think much of their constituents, do they?

Recent debate over contraception comes as GOP loses gains among women - The Washington Post

The fragile gains Republicans had been making among female voters have been erased, a shift that has coincided with what has become a national shouting match over reproductive issues, potentially handing President Obama and the Democrats an enormous advantage this fall.

If the GOP and it's pundits keep focusing on this non-issue, they are going to lose a large voting bloc. Some may vote for Obama, some may not vote at all. It's a lose-lose situation for the GOP.
So NOT true! This is hilarious. The Democrats starting this b.c. controversy to cover up the First Amendment issue raised by the Obama mandate has totally backfired on them!

Todays polls (and there are a few of them out there) show women's support of Republicans has INCREASED not decreased!! LOL

Democrats are befuddled.

Rush had said in the beginning when George Stephanopoulos started this issue with a question at the debate, that Democrats would "rue the day" that they started this.

That day has come. It has totally backfired on them!!! Hilarious!

The First Amendment issue Has Not, been forgotton. And the Democrats bringing up "birth control" and trying to make an issue of it has backfired on them completely.

Saw Marco Rubio on Cavuto last night, talking about this very thing and the Fisrt Amendment issue it creates. He was powerful, and excelent. He was with the guy running for Sherrod Browns seat in Ohio, who is also very powerful. It was great to hear! I'm energized!
