The Democrat War On Women

A few quick facts:

  1. Women,for whatever reason, tend to vote much more reliably to the left than do men (at least until they have kids; then it levels out)
  2. Women use more healthcare services than men.  Lots more.

So who’s going to be the big loser when the Democrats take control (Control! Of womens’ health!) of healthcare, and – inevitably – need to ratchet up the rationing?

Ann Althouse:

Come on, be honest. Don’t you want the federal government to have a complete overview of health care? The potential rationality is stunning. And one thing in this emerging rationality is clear: Although women tend to love the notion of government control more than men do, it is women who will be told they’ll have to cut back. On treatments. And years. You know we’ve been taking more than our share.

Read the whole thing.

And remember the example whenever libs start yapping about people voting “against their own best interests”.

  1. Funny how ladies and black people keep voting Democratic, despite you pissed-off white teabaggers patiently patting them on the heads and explaining that’s not in their best interests. Maybe this blog entry will do the trick!

  2. pissed-off white teabaggers patiently

    That’s a pretty good trick, being pissed off and patient at the same time.

  3. Also, Angryclown is sure you’ll be getting that Hispanic vote …any…time…now…..

  4. Funny how ladies and black people keep voting Democratic,

    And Chicagoans! And felons! And the dead!

  5. Funny how ladies and black people keep voting Democratic

    This can say two things:

    A) Women and blacks are just completely, societally, suicidally, stupid.
    B) The Democrats are masters at mass-deception and message manipulation.

    I’ll be charitable and say B).

    Initially.

  6. “This can say two things:

    B) The Democrats are masters at mass-deception and message manipulation.”

    or C) Republicans like Akin are aiding and abetting the Democratic messaging

  7. Bill C. Actuallly, Bill C, you creepy, angry white guys make their skin crawl. The way you do with anybody who isn’t a teabilly like you.

    Please, Sanity Claus, Akin’s only sin was in saying out loud something you kooks all believe.

  8. Yet somehow every Republican but Akin and Huckabee condemned his words.
    That “dog whistle” you hear, Mister Clown, is a projection.
    Proud of Bill Clinton? The guy who used woman like a kleenex?

  9. I hope to God this is a hoax:

    Newly hired Justice Department employees who
    self identify. their disability by means of the Standard Form 256, Self Identification of Disability, are “individuals with a reportable disability”.
    Individuals with a targeted disability are a subset of this group, in that targeted disabilities are

    -total deafness in both ears (with or without understandable speech);
    -blindness (the inability to read ordinary size print, not correctable by glasses, or no usable vision, beyond light perception);
    -missing extremities (missing one arrn or leg, both hand or afins, both feet or legs, one hand or arm and one foot or leg, one hand or arrn and both feet or legs, both hands or arms and one foot or leg, or both hands or arrns and both feet or legs);
    -partial paralysis (because of a brain, nerve or muscle impairment, including palsy and cerebral palsy, there is some loss of ability to move or use apart of the body, including both hands any parl of both arrns or legs; one side of the body, including one arm and one leg; and/or three or more major body parts);
    -complete paralysis (because of a brain, nerve or muscle impairment, including palsy and cerebral palsy, there is a complete loss of ability to move or use apart of the body,including both hands; one or both arms or legs; the lower half of the body; one side of the body, including one arrn and one leg; and/or three or more major body parts);

  10. “Please, Sanity Claus, Akin’s only sin was in saying out loud something you kooks all believe.”

    I won’t argue with that. Akin isn’t the only one. Limbaugh called a woman a slut for using birth control. Oh, that’s right, women use more medical services because they are the sex that takes on the heavy lifting in reproduction of the species.

    But never mind that trivial fact, we must berate the “weaker sex” whenever possible because they have an inexplicable drive to look after their own interests (not attempting to cut funding and shut down Planned Parenthood, or limit their birth control options, for example) and that means voting Democratic.

    Go figure.

  11. “Please, Sanity Claus, Akin’s only sin was in saying out loud something you kooks all believe.”
    That’s our angryclown – So reflexively and mindlessly Progressive he frags poor Sanity. Blue-on-Blue friendly fire, tsk, tsk.
    “Oh, that’s right, women use more medical services because they are the sex that takes on the heavy lifting in reproduction of the species. ”
    Births are relatively cheap – why do you think so many ob/gyn’s recommend medically unnecessary anesthesia and C-sections? You can’t make much money off something that has been done naturally for millions of years. The few with complications cost a lot. Can’t wait til Barry’s male dominated board of adjustment decides which women get to take their complicated pregnancy to term and which ones get ordered to the local abortion clinic. Based on his green energy flops, you ladies better start heavily contributing to the Obama campaign toot sweet.
    Women are also the sex that tends to live longer and have more chronic conditions at the end of life which is what is really spins the meter in health care costs. That’s why it’s perfect for Barry to have a male dominated board of administrators deciding which women get potentially life saving treatments and which ones don’t. The ability of white male progs to remain masters of the plantation is breathtaking.

  12. “That’s our angryclown – So reflexively and mindlessly Progressive he frags poor Sanity. Blue-on-Blue friendly fire, tsk, tsk.”

    I saw that too, AC fails at target identification.

  13. “The ability of white male progs to remain masters ”

    Yes, much better to leave it to the old, white male regressives. Republican platform adds a plank to deny abortions to victims of rape or incest, and you wonder why women vote for Democrats? Seriously?

  14. Oooh, Sanity threw down the Seriously? card on me. What’s next for me? A glitter bombing? Maybe shoot the poor security guard in my office building? Or – even – heaven forfend – go after my children when they turn 17 (16 if you want to be technical about it)!!
    I’ll take your not refuting my point – that your nonsense about women’s high health care costs relating to reproduction is just that, nonsense – as your acquiesence that I was right and you were wrong.
    Let’s move on to the shiny object you threw out. Yep – Republicans are strident in their anti-abortion views. Even to the point of putting it in their platform. So if you vote Republican or for a Republican, you are giving the anti-abortion party your vote. Plenty of women, not the majority, but plenty of women vote for Republican’s – wonder why?
    Here’s my opinion – Abortion is an issue a small percentage of people care deeply about enough to affect their vote. In all it’s years of stridency and anti-abortion planks in its platform, the Republican Party has done very little to restrict abortion. Just ask my spouse (a woman, ftr) who is disappointed year after year with the Republicans lack of action on abortion restriction.You may point out a fight over funding Planned Parenthood (a highly profitable, non-profit, billion+ dollar corporation) or some Republican legislator protesting a clinic, but for the most part, the Republicans are sated with the status quo.
    Some believe that the Republican status quo position is due to the fact that more Democrats get abortions rather than Republicans leading to fewer future Democrats.
    I believe that the abortion issue is a non-starter for most people is more due to the fact that the economic issues are much more important this year, and the results of poll after poll find that Romney is considered more competent than Obama on that issue.
    Now, if I were dependent on government for my abortion services or birth control, I’d probably vote Democrat because, as the old song goes, they’ll turn ’em into beggars as they are easier to please. As it is, I pay for my own birth control, and don’t understand why the government is responsible for paying for my birth control or anyone else’s. Maybe you can explain that to me.

  15. “Abortion is an issue a small percentage of people care deeply about enough to affect their vote”

    I can tell you haven’t door knocked the old 6th Congressional district (Bachmann’s voters). There’s a huge block of religious right, and it is the ONLY issue that matters, no matter what year it is. The same people who were single issue voters in 2006 (pro life) were single issue voters in 2008, 2010, and 2012. Why do you think it’s being used as a wedge issue THIS year? Yup, because them there’s a LOT of votes to fight over. That’s why the Republicans work so hard to capture them . . . it’s a large block of votes. Don’t discount the evangelical (pro-life) vote. They have big money PACs and well funded candidates.

    “Maybe you can explain that to me.”

    This is a huge can of worms. As you know, hundreds of thousands of women take birth control pills for reasons other than birth control. I know pre-menopausal women who take it to regulate hormones, for example. Explain to me why the government (or any insurer) pays for Viagra for men . . . to me that is less necessary than birth control. Honestly, I’d rather pay taxes for a poor woman to take birth control than for her to have a baby and raise it to adulthood (very, very costly for me, the taxpayer, as this includes food, clothing, education, healthcare for at least 18 years for another person — birth control is very cheap in comparison).

    “Romney is considered more competent than Obama on that issue”

    If only we could figure out where Romney is on ANY issue.

    Slightly off topic, but this is why CNN sucks:

  16. Well, you certainly have a point there, Sanity. The Rep is wrong in using the phrase “virtually impossible” to get AIDS through hetero to hetero contact. In fact accrording the Center’s for Disease Control (the government!), of the people contracting AIDS via hetero to hetero contact was 20%.
    http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/surveillance/basic.htm
    Now, they put a little asterisk (*) by that number because that is based on one party in the transaction must have had AIDS prior to the union. Where that one person got AIDS from – thats not answered.
    Maybe the reason they ask me so many questions about my sex life (and whether or not I have had sex with men, paid for sex with men, am I bi-sexual, etc) has to do with the fact that the nearly half of AIDS cases come from homosexual to homosexual contact. Add in IV drug use and you have 75% of the cause.
    But the representative is wrong in stating it is virtually impossible. Unlikely might be a better term to use.

  17. Seflores, I left a response to your earlier post but it looks like the moderator is not attending to it. This has happened to me before on this blog (a post never gets through moderation), and I’m not sure why that happens. It does not include bad language or a personal attack, but the facts I’ve included might make some conservatives uncomfortable . . . usually my best arguments are the ones that don’t get posted. Not sure why this happens ???

  18. I anxiously await your making me and/or other Conservative’s uncomfortable. Hopefully it’s about a real issue with a source other than “Raw Story” – but, never-the-less, I’m all tingly with anticipation!!
    But while we await your massive counter strike, can you fix some less than “good, intelligent, fact-based candidates in the party of the Ass?
    How about this guy?

  19. Here’s a member of the Democratic Party leadership – tough taking her on – but I know you’ll do your level best to explain to her that we live in a democratic republic and we the people are served and represented by our elected leaders. Good luck getting her to come around on that constitutional principal…

  20. “Sanity”,

    I’m not sure why you get hung up in moderation. Usual culprits are using words with spam words tucked inside (“Socialist” is a good example, since it has a common spam word tucked inside), or links in the text, or having a website attached to the profile.

    I do not always moderate immediately because – this is pretty important – I have a private-sector job that has to get done. Unlike leftybloggers, nobody pays me to run SITD.

    While you can think your “best arguments” get expunged, that’s not true. Partly because I don’t run an echo chamber; everyone’s welcome. And party because your self-image notwithstanding, most of your writing makes liberals look smug and uninformed, which I certainly like.

    Serious point here: I had someone once ask me if I wrote “Liberal” comments under sock-puppet IDs to make lefties look bad; that person suggested you were an example of this.

    But nope. I don’t hold your stuff back. FAR from it.

  21. Ruh-roh. Here’s the biggest Dem of all – Hate to point this out given my proof reading and grammatical errors above – but then I’m not running for re-election as leader of the free world!
    http://twitchy.com/2012/08/22/barack-obamas-dan-quayle-moment/
    Now given that he’s with some fellows from Ohio State, I’ll let Barry slide on this. He’s kind of one to lead from behind and see which way the wind is blowing. He probably mimicked these young Buckeye’s and that always gets you in trouble.

  22. So the host of this here blog just green lighted all of your missives. Let’s just say that I am hunkered down, ready to take rainbow colored shrapnel from the glitter MOAB of truth.

  23. Akin’s biggest problem is that he got off-message. This election is about one thing — how Obama’s no-growth slow-growth policies are destroying the American dream.

  24. Ok, the glitter MOAB just went off.
    But I’m confused yet again – your example – Religious Right (maybe it got hung up in moderation because you wrote “reich” instead or “right”?) voters in the old 6th (it’s not the old 6th – maybe you were in what is now the new 4th?) are very one issue voters – anti-abortion. Doesn’t it serve the Republicans to be strident to appeal to this group? You say it’s a huge block of voters. Generally, to win elections, you try to get huge blocks of voters. You’re not making any sense here.
    “Why do you think it’s being used as a wedge issue THIS year?” Beats me – This is an issue Democrats want at the forefront to distract from the economy, the war in Afghanistan (remember that?) and other issues the Dem’s are struggling with. Maybe when you are straightening out those non-intelligent Dem’s you can ask.
    “…hundreds of thousands of women take birth control pills for reasons other than birth control. I know pre-menopausal women who take it to regulate hormones, for example. Explain to me why the government (or any insurer) pays for Viagra for men . . .”
    Well, do we agree that hormone regulation and erectile disfunction are medical conditions? We pay to treat medical conditions like these and others. It has nothing to do with reproduction. Doesn’t answer why we should pay for birth control.

  25. Bill C. Actuallly, Bill C, you creepy, angry white guys make their skin crawl. The way you do with anybody who isn’t a teabilly like you.

    And not a single word of what you said refutes my point. Which, in turn, makes my opinion point ever closer to A) than B).

  26. <ior C) Republicans like Akin are aiding and abetting the Democratic messaging

    I heard several people call into talk radio shows that Akin HAD to have been paid off to throw the game, since hardly anyone smart enough to wade their way thru the political battlefield who get elected to a national office could be so stupid to make such a glaring rhetorical blunder.

    And frankly, it would not surprise me in the least, given this current administration.

  27. Dangit, I, like AC, need to fire my typist. If you could be so kind as to insert my missing >, I’d appreciate it, Mitch.

  28. I got an email today from Sandra Fluke who is working hand in hand with the Obama campaign now, so why exactly was she brought in to testify to Congress if she is simply a mouthpiece for the Obama admin?
