The 'War on Women' Backfires
American Thinker, by Clarice Feldman

Original Article

Posted By:DW626, 10/21/2012 5:40:26 AM

One of the intriguing aspects of this election is how the Democrats' shameless and clueless appeal to women is ending with the vaporization of the historic "gender gap" among voters. The Lady Parts Convention From the prancing Code Pink vulvas outside the convention venue to the choice of speakers, there was no doubt that the Democrat Convention was aimed at securing the women's vote. Indeed, Balkanizing women and minority voters was then as significant a part of the Obama strategy as securing the electoral votes of Ohio is now to them.

Haven't really heard much for the school lunch moms who have to be hating the crummy lunches their kids are being served. It's little things like this that get under people's skin and it's directly tied to MO.

Now hot cheetos are school's number one item of contraband they go after. They're turning kids into smugglers. To them a kid having hot cheetos is worse than having a bag of pot on them.

In summary, Clarice says that as a result of the real War on Women that has been waged by the Democrats, who view them as nothing more than an army of voting vulvas, women are going to vote with their ultimate lady parts...their brains.

Obama's asking Hillary and Susan Rice to lie and take the fall for his Bengazigate looks a lot like a war on women.

A 7 year old boy will be executed next Friday at midnight in California in what school officials say they hope "will be the first of many".

He is the first person to be executed in California in over 40 years and while there are numerous hardened criminals on death row at San Quentin, none were caught with cheetos in their school locker.

He WAS caught with cheetos... and he will pay.

Let this be a lesson to school children everywhere. Do not cross Michelle Obama whose only regret is that the child's parents will not go down with him. "We'll be more agressive next time" she said as she sipped on an arugula latte.

This is such a bizarre campaign. For many years the social conservatives in the old republican party were told to "sacrifice" their opposition to abortion in order to fulfill a higher, more important need. The libs sneered at the embracer's of life and considered them stupid. Pro-life USED to be important to the old republican party....it no longer is.
But NOW we have a political party whose convention(!) was based on abortion and whose main theme seems to be....don't look at the economy, don't look at our standing abroad, don't look at your diminished capacity to care for your family, focus solely on abortion. Really strange times we live in.

Noted on a talk show this week: Man called in and said, "If a woman is ALWAYS paid 25% less than a man for doing the same job, why on earth would any business ever hire a man?"

That 25% less statement doesn't hold water especially when you consider the higher unemployment rate of women...Interesting thought.

#9- If the left could unionize our sex organs, they would. After all, naughty bits are the sole focus and priority of the left. Who cares if you can't afford your home, can you afford an abortion? Ugh.

The war on women is from the left- they reduce us to our sex organs, and glorify women who violate and destroy their true purpose- to support life. Meanwhile, they ignore the intelligence and value women contribute to society with their brains.

Truth will out, but you have to be willing to see it. Most women are.

I dropped into the local Obama headquarters yesterday here in Pennsylvania and only 2 elderly females there. No signs, no bumperstickers, nothing available. I was told to go online to get what I pretended to want. I asked if I had to pay for it. The woman said, "yes, but only a small amount."

There is no depravity known to man that a Lib/Prog won't stoop to. Nothing is too low-down, common, or indecent. They wallow around in the gutter, and they foist what they find upon America. It's in our face, we aren't allowed to ignore it, and if we protest, we're unPC. Intolerant. We hate women.

Wow! Clarice hits another one out of the park!

The Democrat Party has attempted to reinvent the late 60's and early 70's of Hippidom and its sexual revolution, and they are USING women as one of their tools.
.... Marching vulvas. The Vagina Monologues?
.... Sandra Fluke desperately demanding that the government pay attention to her sexual cavorting and buy her contraceptives.
.... Occupy Wall Street sit-ins and clashes.
.... Tent cities in parks across America, occupied by the New Great Unwashed.
.... Sexual freedom, with pay, for gays and lesbians who demand to be recognized for something they are not, like a female demanding be called Mr.
.... The shunning of business owners who DARE to say they believe in the traditional marriage between a man and a woman.

Obama and his czars have, in other words, shown the world that they believe women are brainless, caring only about sexual matters in this nation which is falling apart.
Oooops.

When your article inspires a big-city mayor to refer your case to a "human-relations commission," you know you´ve hit a nerve. And when that article is the recent "Being White in Philly" piece by liberal Robert Huber, you know it doesn´t take much truth to hit that nerve. That´s the scary part. Huber´s article contains mostly tepid examples of whites´ negative experiences with blacks and primarily black neighborhoods, such as a Philadelphia resident whose grill was stolen from her backyard but "blames herself" for not fencing it in. Its tone is basically apologetic, absolving a drug dealer of responsibility

That´s something to remember when you arrive there next week. Israel has a government, elected by its people in a free, fair, open and democratic election. Multiple parties representing widely divergent points of view met a wildly diverse electorate through free media and open debate. This is no stultified two-party affair with a libertarian insurgency. Israel will be the only country you visit in the region, this time or any other, that has a fully democratic system. Do not be swayed by the "apartheid" slander. Citizens of Israel are Jews, Moslems, Christians, and Druze, each with religious and non-religious elements.

Why Florida Persists in

Prodded by a president with a weakness for racial agitation and enabled by a politically complicit media, the State of Florida persists in a prosecution that can come to no good end. The defendant is neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman. The charge is the second-degree murder. The potential outcomes range from major injustice, if Zimmerman is convicted, to mayhem in the streets, if he´s acquitted. And the state plods on as though the angels were on its side. They are not. The witnesses to the February 2012 shooting of 17 year-old Trayvon Martin are proving even more troublesome

The political world changed its orbit Wednesday as Rand Paul seized the spotlight in his March 6 filibuster. Rand Paul -- not this author´s favorite before -- is probably now the 2016 front-runner for president. But the difference results from fundamental changes in substance. How can one day be that big of a deal? Because Rand Paul demonstrated a reproducible, winning formula. It was as if Ronald Reagan were granted just one day to come back to Earth to remind the Party of Lincoln of "how it´s done." Rand demonstrated a repeatable formula that all Republicans can copy.

Sixty-three months ago Barack Obama officially declared his candidacy for President. Only now are some among the so-called media and ruling elites in America slowly awakening from their self-induced infatuation and beginning to understand who he is. It has become difficult to ignore the overt intimidation, demagoguery and deliberate falsehoods spewed forth by Obama relative to sequestration -- a miniscule cut in the growth of federal spending. However, any cursory examination of his past reveals that these tactics are second nature to the man who currently occupies the Oval Office.

Years ago, when I used to play poker with some guys, I played a hand in which across the table from me was someone who looked as though he had a straight flush. He kept pumping up the bidding and everyone folded but me. When we finally showed our hands he had nothing. "You don´t know what you´re doing," he yelled. "Any good player would have folded! Why did you stay in?" he shouted angrily. "Because you curled your lip and reacted furiously when I stayed in. Someone with a winning hand would never do that."

Too little serious conservative analysis of the 2012 presidential campaign has yet appeared. This is understandable. The results of the election were disheartening to the point of shock. The campaign defied all historical precedent, all commonsense interpretation. The Romney ticket should not have lost and did not deserve to lose. The Democrats, fielding the least worthy ticket in the past century -- and that´s saying something -- did not deserve to win. The reasons they did are myriad and complex. But before we get too far down the road, there is one lesson that has to be grasped:

Jesse Sr. (The Right Reverend) and his son (the erstwhile congressman) have done a lot more taking than giving. "Taking" may be too charitable a word.

By now you likely have heard that Chris Rock considers Barack Obama America´s father. If that is true, then would somebody call Child Protective Services and find us foster parents! For Chris Rock, America´s true Founding Fathers were disappointingly white. I suspect that whatever the color of America´s Founding Fathers might have been, they would not have approved of having a failure like Obama among their esteemed membership. Thought the Founding Fathers had many flaws, they were smart enough to eliminate the self-indulgent institution of slavery from America´s future.

Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt.

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes.
