so much for this lie about liberal women getting other women the right to vote.
Are you really equating late 19th/early 20th century Republicans with those of the early 21st century? Tea Partiers and RWNJs steer the R's party policies these days, and they don't in any way, shape, or form resemble Susan B. Anthony or Aaron Sargent.

So much for the lie that today's Republican Party is the same as the party of Susan B. Anthony and Aaron Sargent.

Then the liberal back tracks and says that the parties changed and republicans are racist.

It's very boring, childish and predictable. And a total lie.

Fact is that Republicans fought for the right for women to vote. Not Democrats.

A fact is a fact and you can't unchange a fact.

And anyone that thinks Mitt Romney is gonna outlaw abortion or birth control is a straight up dumb arse and should lose all voting rights for being a moron.
Ever occur to you that back then, Republicans were the liberal party??

Oh, that's right. Nothing.

Who treats his wife better? Mit Romney or liberal icon Bill Clinton?

Who is the only Senator elected to office after causing the death of a woman? Liberal Ted Kennedy.

What party supports, even encourages, the killing of female fetuses? How many women have been denied the right to live because Democrats are pro-abortion? A couple million, I suspect.

But Romeny is going to outlaw birth control. LMFAO.
Who knows which person treats his wife "better".....I would guess that would depend upon what each considers important and whether or not she is happy.

As for Ted Kennedy, he was an amazing supporter of the needy among us, a great liberal Senator, and, yes, accidents happen.

I don't know of any party that "encourages" the killing of any fetus........I know the Democrats support the right to CHOICE. Individual women make that choice as to how best to deal with her own body.

Your post is just reeking with efforts to "sensationalize" because you clearly cannot effectively argue that LIBERAL WOMEN were NOT the ones who pursued equal rights for women and opened the many doors which have been opened for women.

The FACT is that LIBERAL WOMEN fought for women's suffrage. Are you saying that Republicans today are LIBERAL?

SOMEONE IS LYING. To reduce political damage to Barack Obama.


Women -- how does that make you feel as a voter?
Love to know why you think this is a gendered issue.

Those two males said they would improve the economic situation for those people, but has it improved?
Worrying for nothing?? I was a teenager in the 60s and remember when:

1. Abortions were not legal and teenage girls who became pregnant had to drop out of school - forever.
2. Married women did not legally exist except as appendages of their husbands.
3. The only birth control was a condom or the rhythm method.
4. The media were not allowed to use the word pregnant.
5. Career choices for smart women were teaching or nursing.

I could go on, but you get the picture.

Women today do not have special privileges, they simply have access to the same choices that men have always enjoyed.

Tough sh*t for the men who don't like it.

Just curious how much slack women would give Obama after he lied to the American people about Benghazi. I don't think one woman who has posted here so far has batted an eye about it.

Obama could be found guilty of just about anything and get away with it with these women.

And do you know why these women keep their eyes and ears closed?


Because the condition of the country doesn't matter to them as much as their baseless fear that Romney will somehow overturn Roe vs Wade.

Why is you think you can figure out what half of the population thinks based on anything you post here?
If this was a study, your sample size would be laughed out of every professional journal on the face of the earth.
To be quite frank, your threads directed towards women are freighted with condescension, derision and patriarchalism from the opening post.
You do not seem to have clue one about women, and the message that you do not care about us comes through loud and clear.
