[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Because as a woman I value my right to vote and I'm pretty sure given the path the Republicans are headed it's only a matter of time before they start questioning whether that's legitimate.[/quote]

You are idiot.

+1 what a fucking idiot. Conservative / Republican women are just as strong as liberal women when it comes to rights like voting, decision making etc... ASK any of them who are SAH moms or work and they are a MAJOR part of all decisions the male makes (sometimes they are the final say person, at least in my house). Because they don't fit the hollywood popular  cultural mold of pro choice anti marriage, understanding that men and women are different they are percieved by the left to be weak or wanting to give up their rights.

I think you are right, that poster jumped the shark on voting rights.  But the Republican party has bigger women's issues.

You have just five female senators.  Of them, Susan Collins has a 83% NARAL Rating.  Olympia Snowe has an 83% NARAL rating, and one is Murkowski who was handed her first term by her own father, so you have really two conservative women elected free and clear by the Republican Party out of 47 Republican senators.

And out of 242 Republican House Members, you have but 23 women.  That's under 10% vs 25% for Dems.

Something is wrong.  Either the party has a problem attracting female candidates, or it has a supporting them.  So forget what Hollywood says.  Look at what Republicans say.  The numbers do not lie.
