Shall I be her?

"
So let me get this straight: Republicans, you’re annoyed by the arrogance and braggadoccio of a wartime President’s political ad. You think he’s divisively and unfairly belittling his opponents — I see. I have a question: ARE YOU ON CRACK? We’re you alive, lo, these past ten years? (Quoting Republican operatives.) ‘It seems unseemly to spike the football.’ (George W.) Bush landed on a fucking aircraft carrier with a football-sized codpiece — he spiked the football before the game even started!!!

Yes — your Republican caterwauling and outrage is the subject of our segment ‘You Are Aware That The Frontal Lobe Of The Cerebral Cortex Gives Us The Ability To Store And Recall Past Events As They Occurred, Right?’
"

JON STEWART, responding to Republican critics who say President Obama was “spiking the football” by mentioning the killing of Osama bin Laden in a campaign ad, on The Daily Show.

That’s what we said.

"Rape and incest was used as a reason to oppose this … I would hope that when a woman goes in to a physician with a rape issue, that physician will indeed ask her about perhaps her marriage, was this pregnancy caused by normal relations in a marriage or was it truly caused by a rape. I assume that’s part of the counseling that goes on."

Chuck Winder, Idaho state senator, suggests women use rape as an excuse for abortion right before the Idaho Senate passed a bill which requires women to have an ultrasound prior to obtaining an abortion. The bill makes no exception for victims of rape, incest, or medical emergencies. (via rcabbasi)

Women just love lying about a rape, don’t they?

(via mohandasgandhi)

as a woman, i lie about rape 5-7 times a day JUST FOR FUN

(via psychotropicpolitics)

I’m seriously beginning to suspect that Republicans don’t know or understand that women can actually hear what they are saying - or in this case read it. Or that we do actually vote these days.

Republicans are trying to frame women’s health as a “narrow issue” as though it ultimately doesn’t involve HALF OF THE COUNTRY’S POPULATION.

"For women, obviously birth control is not a religious topic: it’s a health topic, and 99 percent of women in America use it. And at Planned Parenthood, we provide birth control to millions of women every single year, so yeah — I think they’re kind of mystified by what the ‘controversy’ is all about.

…I think we’re seeing in this presidential primary this sort of, like, race to the bottom, where every presidential candidate on the Republican side is trying to say ‘I would be absolutely the worst for women.’"

"Rick, I’m sorry that hearing that JFK speech on religion makes you throw up, but if it makes you feel any better, knowing that you were running for President would make him shit his pants."
