When will the GOP war on American Women stop?

[colum]

Hey ! If we're willing to cut our defense budget, every other budget damn well better be cut, too !

[kyledyr]

get real.

[sayre]

when the racist organization planned parenthood, founded by the Racist Margaret Sanger gets shut down.

I don't see it stopping any time soon, unfortunately. :(

EDIT: I just want to point out that even if you don't believe that the GOP is "waging a war on women", the collateral damage is substantial- and they should have to answer for the damage that is done by the policies they pursue- either explaining how we're wrong and how, for example, cutting "aid to low-income pregnant women, mothers, babies, and kids." is actually GOOD for women- or admitting that they don't care if it negatively affects them.

Everything you wrote makes womanhood sound pathetic. If a woman wants to mess around, she should be economically in the position to take care of the consequences herself or make her "partner of the night" pay up. Why should responsible citizens have to pay for people who are incapable of using contraceptives because they are so controlled by their hormones. You can fool young people but I remember before abortion was legal, before there were birth control pills, before women became the new poverty stricken demographic in need of social aid from the Democrats. What has happened to being proud of being a woman rather than someone who demands their government aid so they can mess around like our pathetic men today? I'm ashamed of modern day women just as much as I'm ashamed of the two timing men who are responsible for this. Pathetic. People incapable of self control do not get my sympathy. By the way, rapists aren't guilty until it is proven in court. When did that law change? What you are seeing today is people giving up on the higher calling of the human race because they are now seen as just one small notch above the animals in the forest.

When will trolls stop posting their demagoguery here with inflammatory rhetoric, immitating the STYLE of Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter, even if they have a message that goes in the ideologically opposite direction?

Some conservatives here post demagoguery that has the same content and style of Hannity and Coulter, and some liberals use the STYLE too. Troll, troll, troll your boat, gently into a tsunami, ....

The asker has not the slightest interest in the welfare of women. If he did he'd be addressing the mountain of evidence against how Muslim women are treated, to wit

-Qur'an 33:59: "Prophet! Tell your wives and daughters and all Muslim women to draw cloaks and veils all over their bodies (screening themselves completely except for one or two eyes to see the way). That will be better."
-Hadis number 789, volume 2, p.114: “An ***, a pig, a Jew, a Magian and a woman annuls a prayer.”
-Tabari I:280: “Because Allah afflicted Eve, all of the women of this world menstruate and are stupid.”

And those holy commands to abuse women is a reality, today, worldwide:

From the United Nations sponsored 2002 Arab Human Development Report (arab-hdr.org):

-The utilizationof Arab women’s capabilities through political and economic participation remains the lowest in the world
-About 65 million adult Arabs are illiterate, two thirds of them women
-The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) includes GEM (gender empowerment measurement) which reveals that women suffer “a glaring deficit” in women’s empowerment. Among regions of the world the Arab region ranks next to last as measured by GEM
-United Nations Report, 2002: "The report of the Special Rapporteur concerning cultural practices in the family that are violent towards women (E/CN.4/2002/83), indicated that honour killings had been reported in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Pakistan, the Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey, Yemen, and other Mediterranean and Persian Gulf countries, and that they had also taken place in western countries such as France, Germany and the United Kingdom, within migrant communities."
-2/6/04 asiapacific.amnestyinternational.org: Each year 2 million girls are subjected to female genital mutilation (FGM), mostly in Muslim countries.
-1/29/07 Daily Telegraph UK: 75% believe that women should wear veils.

The asker's purpose has nothing to do with women's rights. He's nothing more than another OWS America hater.

Were it not for the Internet we would never know about OWS and this type of...person.
