KEEPIN' SWEETY DOWN!

A diary of repub women keepin my sweetie down!

Under my thumb 
The girl who once had me down 
Under my thumb 
The girl who once pushed me around 

It's down to me 
The difference in the clothes she wears 
Down to me, the change has come, 
She's under my thumb

Female politicians with stereotypically feminine facial features are more likely to be Republican than Democrat, and the correlation increases the more conservative the lawmaker's voting record," said study author Colleen M. Carpinella, a UCLA graduate student in psychology, in an article posted.HUFFPO!

Rush Limbaugh

If you like your risky, promiscuous lifestyle, you can keep it. That's what Obama is promising."Limbaugh warned young people about falling into this trap, and decoded what he believes the ads are "really promising."

On the November 30 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, host Rush Limbaugh proclaimed: My "cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life" because his pet cat "comes to me when she wants to be fed," and "she's smart enough to know she can't feed herself. She's actually a very smart cat. She gets loved. She gets adoration. She gets petted. She gets fed. And she doesn't have to do anything for it." Limbaugh has previously stated, on the March 1, 2005, edition of his show, that "women still live longer than men because their lives are easier"; on January 10, he suggested that some women "would love to be hired as eye candy."

Sarah Palin

And so on and so forth. She's touring the country like the kids in Scooby Doo, going from town to town to try to knock Old Man Jenkins out of his comfy Republican seat in favor of, well, whatever nutcase the locals can dredge up...

Palin is a conundrum at this point (no, Sarah, conundrum is not a musical instrument.) Does she herself believe she has any deeper purpose than self-promotion? And should we be happy or sad that she is still around? On one hand, she is a key player in the very conspicuous endumbening of our discourse; on the other hand, if we are going to have an endumbened discourse, having someone be so transparently bad at it that they're constantly giving the game away is the best thing an opponent could ask for. In practice, I think if Sarah Palin went away tomorrow the crowd that believes in things like U.N. conspiracies and death panels would find a new heroic figure by the end of next week—she is filling a deep-seated need among a certain portion of the public for public figures as dimwitted and gullible as they are—so we should probably be thankful that Sarah Palin is channelling this energy and using it on something relatively harmless to the rest of us, i.e. to sell some ridiculous books about, for example, how not to boil a Christmas bear skull.

Michele Bachmann

Quite unlike prior presidential and vice presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin, Bachmann has consistently downplayed the fact that she is a woman in her campaign. She never mentions any of the barriers that would be broken if she were to become the first female Republican presidential nominee or the first female president. She doesn't identify as a feminist or embrace any particularly feminist or pro-woman policies. She talks about how wives should be "submissive" to their husbands, and on Women's Equality Day, she shared a stage in South Carolina with the state's first woman governor and entirely ignored the fact that it was the 91st anniversary of women's suffrage.

Marsha Blackburn

"I think that more important than that is making certain that women are recognized by those companies. You know, I’ve always said that I didn’t want to be given a job because I was a female, I wanted it because I was the most well-qualified person for the job. And making certain that companies are going to move forward in that vein, that is what women want. They don’t want the decisions made in Washington. They want to be able to have the power and the control and the ability to make those decisions for themnselves."

Phyllis Schlaflay

But the NFRW? Those women, especially the then president, Dorothy Elston (later appointed by Nixon as 33rd Treasurer of the United States) really didn’t want her. Elston and her board didn’t want Phyllis so bad that they put off the vote for president in ‘66 by changing the biennial conference from even years to odd. Which meant that the incumbent board members and Elston would stay on until the next conference voted again in ’67. Basically, they just put the fight off for a year, hoping Phyllis would just go away. (19670519-DailyCapitalNewsJeffersonCityMissouri-General-HowNFRWScrewedPhilys-1-3). ( here)

Virginia Foxx

Yesterday, under the leadership of Rep. Virginia Foxx (you know, the one who called Matthew Shepard’s murder a “hoax” in front of his mother), the House of Representatives needlessly spent time re-affirming the fact that the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) was the law of the land. It was equivalent to re-affirming the fact that Snooki is a celebrity. Even though it’s horrible, saying it out loud doesn’t make it more or less
true.

FOXY LADY

If I don't get some shelter

I am going to fade away

IT'S JUST A KISS AWAY!
