Revisit the GOP platform hammered out in '12 before the national convention. Then ask yourself whether said platform is female-friendly.

How about, since you made the accusation, you back it up for us?

One of the criticisms of Hobby Lobby by the medical community is that there's no scientific proof that Plan B, Ella, ParaGard or Mirena are abortifacients and not contraceptives. In other words, the five same-faith justices simply chose to accept the evangelical explanation rather than the scientific explanation. Bad precedent.

 

So all these are designed to ensure that fertilized egg dies by some means or is chemically destroyed. Ella is considered better than Plan B since it can deal with a fertilized egg that has already attached itself to the uterus. Ella is in the same family of drugs as RU-486 and that drug is specifically used to induce abortions. It also killed at least 11 women. Thus, I am not sure of the accuracy of the statements.

 

When government creates its own value system and enforces it via law - its a lot like Russia 1919.

I'm just confused why my Mother and sisters still love me with this war on women I apparently support.

As I've said many times, the generosity of women never ceases to amaze me. I speak from personal experience.

Beyond the abortion/birth control related issue, where else are Republicans anti-women? If it is only about that issue, then there is no war on women. There is a war on abortion/birth control.

Accuse a liberal of having a war on babies and see how quickly they scream foul.

So an assault on birth control is not an assault on women's rights? You lost me on that one.

 

To answer your question, here's a decent article from Forbes (of all publications) -- six ways the GOP platform is bad for women.

Where did I say assault on birth control is not an assault on women's rights?

I especially like the rugged individualism in the Cialis and Viagra ads on TV. Hobby Lobby didn't take the freebies away from those cowboys.

 

Maybe they were gay.

1. Repeal ACA. Too late. Its embedded and can not be done for 2 more years at least even with R controlled houses. Red herring.

2. Womens right to choose. Got it. Same old hysteria.

3. 4. 5. All need to be done somehow. The current systems will collapse. Not may. Will. 'Do nothing' is clinging to a failed policy that will not succeed in the future. There is nothing anit-woman about it. Dems believe the gas we exhale will destroy the Earth. At least some Repubs do know that the entitlements need to be reformed. Not may need - they will need if they are to survive. But its easier to ignore that cliff and party on.

6. Single mothers = bad. Well there is...the strategy. We got it single moms are a Dem bloc and they have to be reminded. Got it.

 

So we are back to abortion it seems.

Three more examples: Partisan attacks on access to health care, equal pay, domestic violence. How many examples have I provided now -- nine? ten?

So what I'm hearing from the Pachyderm Club is the best way to explain the 20-point gender gap is that it's some kind of mass brainwashing.

No they did not, but if they want to take away these little pills, it is OK by me.

Equal pay...really...?

 

Proven to be falsely way, way overstated. Anything fresh, accurate? Or is it the same talking points of years ago?

Nine-ten examples, and you're still not convinced? If the aggregate of evidence is not proof of an assault on women's rights, then gee, any more examples will simply fall by the wayside.

 

Perhaps the 20-point gender gap is simply a polling error.

 

By the way, your "talking point" talking point has become hackneyed. You're capable of better smarm.

You really have to ask? I haven't heard a single thing from TTP that I haven't been hearing since 1980.
