More discrimination on the part of the GOP...this time it's gender based. If you click on the TPM link, notice how the local Republican party is now back peddling after being confronted..

A recent newsletter from the Republican Party in Medina County, Ohio, flagged by EMILY's List, contains a specific attack on Democratic Rep. Betty Sutton: "Let's take Betty Sutton out of the House and put her back in the kitchen."

Sounds like a good place for them. Women don't belong in politics.

Maybe if John McCain had picked a male VP, he'd be the one in office now.

Palin definitely hurt McCain....but that's because she's stupid, not because she's a woman..

Much of the Republican platform is based on misogynistic principals..

I've always wondered how any woman could vote for a party that wants to curtail their freedoms..

As a male I like to cook, I don't want no women screwing my food up.

I say "back to the bedroom" is more suitable.

Neanderthals were actually much more egalitarian than TKramer.
