It must be nearing election time. The libs are ramping up the "war on women" routine. Funny that many liberal politicians are serial rapists and defilers of women!
What happened to the democrat party of Harry Truman, which actually supported workers and the middle class?
It has been highjacked by limosine liberals who have sought to destroy the middle class, increase the number of poor in the US, and install a monarchy system, in which "enlightened liberals" rule the "dirty" masses.
Why would anyone who could stomach Teddy Kennedy complain about this? I suggest Op watch a modern music video to see whatever turns you on true meaning.

I'm not sure how this is supposed to defend the right's need for misogynistic laws. Seems to me you're just whining about Democrats because you can't actually defend what you support. Being criticized makes right-wingers whine about other unrelated things, and their whining makes me laugh at them.
While I admit the changes in the GOP and as a GOPer I am not happy with those changes. The "religious right" and the TEA Party are hurting the party's image and presenting us as a bunch of lunatics.
However for what it's worth the Democratic Party has also changed considerably. Once upon a time the Democrats believed in the a strong military, a strong foreign policy, a strong middle class, they made serious efforts at job creation instead of killing jobs with endless regulations and burdens, etc. People like JFK, Truman, etc wouldent even recognize today's Democratic Party. Today's Democratic Party is all about pleasing the various sectors of their coalition each of which has their own agenda but who share a common hatred of the vaguely defined "rich", and of traditional American values and everything that made the US great.
I will agree with you to a point. But everyone knows there were Republicans who supported the
mandate in past proposed bills.
I really think Republicans should put more emphasis on jobs and less on bashing
the ACA since most folks get thier insurance through an employer anyways.
By 2020, about 90 percent of American workers who now receive health insurance through their employers will be shifted to government exchanges created by the health law, according to a projection by S&P Capital IQ, a research firm serving the financial industry.
It’s not an outlandish notion. Ezekiel Emanuel, an architect of the Affordable Care Act, has long predicted a similar shift.
The morning after pill is not very reliable. A woman I know said that planed parenthood was giving her daughter the morning after pills instead of the normal birth control pills. Her daughter got pregnant.
BTW, how often must teen or tween girl get knocked up that she needs taxpayers to keep her supplied with free morning after pills?
The Tea Party is slightly to blame. While originally not a problem, certain Republican politicians started to identify with the Tea Party but turned out to be utterly insane. Claiming they support grass roots beliefs, they didn't specify how far back they go. Pretty far back. They became more reactionary. So Pro-tradition, than anything not already established as a social norm is wrong, like gays or other gender identities, as well as many religious issues. Basically, they adopted extreme social conservationism. This attracted more crazy people, leading to various republicans making ridiculous remarks. I remember a while back, some politicians said "if abortion is legal, then men should be able to rape women legally." Something like that gives the entire party a bad name, which is a reason why Republicans are loosing support, especially to younger voters who are certainly more socially liberal.
I don't think all Republicans are sexist or incapable of in depth thought, but the loudest ones seem to be. That's the problem, in my opinion.
