Mike Huckabee: Dems stop trying to control women!

"If the Democrats want to insult women by making them believe that they are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of the government, then so be it," he said. "Let us take this discussion all across America because women are far more than the Democrats have played them to be."




Wait, What?

Did Gov. Mike Huckabee just say that democrats are trying to make women think they need the government to control their libido's?

Yes he did, he even goes as far as to say that women need to stand up to these democrats and tell them that enough is enough.

Really Governor?

But wait, isn't the GOP the ones who are consistently waging their war on women? Just the other day on the Anniversary of Roe v. Wade they made sure to postpone their winter meetings so that every republican can march and show how much they are against women taking control of our bodies, and health.

No, Gov. You've got it wrong. Your party's representatives are making it harder and harder for planned parenthood and other clinics that support women's health to stay afloat. This in turn makes it almost impossible for women to do what they've always wanted, to be in control of their own lives. And to be able to make the best decisions for their families.

Your party has done everything in it's power to take away as much control away from women as you can. 

So no Gov. Mike Huckabee what you are doing is trying to insult our intellegence and we won't go for that. We can see right through your lies.

Will Anti-Abortion Unite the Republican Party?

Today on the 41st anniversary of Roe V. Wade anti-choice supporters took to the streets rallying for less choices for women to take control of there healthcare. The GOP has even gone as far as postponing their winter meeting  to make sure every GOPer can make the march.

In light of the disunity within the Republican party, and their unpopularity with women, the GOP continue to push for making abortion a criminal act. This comes after the party stated that they will take sensitivity seminars to help them refer to women in a higher regard.

How do they respond?

By trying to lessen the protection zone for clinics like planned parenthood, and other clinics that cater to women's health. And criminalizing abortion after twenty weeks.

It seems as though the GOP is trying to sabotage themselves against women. They are constantly reminded how important it is to have the woman vote, but they continually prey on women's rights.

Why are they doing this?

With the party deep in scandal, it seems that the only thing that the GOP has in common right now is abortion. It seems that uniting on abortion is the only way the GOP will unite at all, and they think, the only way they will win elections.

You would think they would learn from the former mistakes of Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock who lost their seats because of their anti women agenda in 2012. Though republicans lost several seats, in 2010 they had success in getting elected in their states due to gerrymandering and changing other voting laws. Because of this they have been passing restrictive laws at the speed of a bullet train targeting a woman's uterus.

"It’s incredible to see what’s happening primarily in the states," Dr. James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, told msnbc. “It hasn’t shown up here in Washington, but I believe in time it will."

Clearly they are proud of what their doing.

Rick Santorum, feels that in the past the GOP has been to quiet in standing up for what it believes in and thinks its better for the party if they stand loud and proud about their beliefs.

 "Unless we go out there and are not afraid to stand by the platform we have and talk about the issues and how extreme the other side is and have them play defense instead of us defending our record, then we’re in for a very tough time," he said. "It’s one of the reasons we’re not in the majority."

Regardless of how each separate GOP goes about winning their races, their is one thing that they do agree with, they must stick together. Believing that separating would be detrimental to the party.  Even if sticking together will make them lose the women's vote.
