Victimhood is where it's at.

If there are not enough real victims, then fictitious victims must be created
-- as with the claim that there is "a war on women." Why anyone would have an incentive or a motivation to create awar on women in the first place is just one of the questions that should be asked of those who promote this political slogan, obviously designed for the gullible. The real war -- which is being waged in our schools, in the media and amongthe intelligentsia -- is the war on achievement. - - Thomas Sowell

Your Say

During the debate, Stephanopoulous repeatedly asked Romney whether the former Massachusetts governor believes the U.S. Supreme Court should overturn a 1965 ruling that a constitutional right to privacy bars states from banning contraception.[21] During the debate, Romney said it was a preposterous question. During the fall presidential campaign, the Obama campaign used the question and answer to intimate there was a political War on Women.

All part of the long con.

I should have noted that was a Wikipedia grab.

I apologize in advance to the women in advance but its very hard to avoid the opinion that young unmarried women are idiotically gullible. Even some married women believe the absolute stupidest crap ever puked from a human mouth about Republicans and from Democrats. I had women telling me flat out that Romney was going to outlaw birth control. How they expected he'd do this or why, since he never gave the slightest inclination to do so they did not have any intention of explaining.

This is one of those "shines like a diamond in a goat's ass" quotes:

“When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.’“ ~ Adolf Hitler

Thank the teachers, thank the parents, thank the voters. Thank all the defenders of the Constitution that are still sitting around talking and grumbling. Sitting not around a campfire in some woods but in the den or in a pub.
