Always knew "she" was really a "he". Probably actually Dan Coulter.

And he thinks you women shouldn't vote.

He should have added "shouldn't drive cars."

Women vote with their eyes. Whoever they think is better looking gets their vote. I'm all for a qualification test before permitted to vote. Voting should be a privilege, not a right. You let idiots vote and we get idiots in office.

Statements like that might get you disqualified.

Please tell me you don't vote. That thought scares me.

Ann Coulter said?

"If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat president.
It’s kind of a pipe dream, it’s a personal fantasy of mine, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. And it
is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women."




the question should be why do women vote Democrat
more than Republican if they do, and then see if we can adapt
some things? Not take away the vote.

I'm glad this isn't real.


RFSilver
who knows why and even being a moderate conservative I have little use for Ann Coulter. We do have to keep in mind, most of these people, regardless of the side they are on simply are entertainers. They do not represent what most of us are thinking.

Women didn't vote back when this country was founded. Didn't hurt us any.

Just a slight possibility.

(I know this for a fact. My sister was all psyched up about voting for McCain Palin, until I showed her Sarah dearests view on abortion, she did a 180 flip)
Well my daughters and granddaughters are completely pro choice and in favor of womens rights. Guess who they voted for? Yep, McCain-Palin. As they put it, abortion has no business in the political arena.
