David Frum: Why the Birth Control Issue Stings →
theworldisconfused:
Right now, hundreds of thousands of young Americans are using birth control to delay pregnancies they want, but feel they cannot currently afford.
If this poll is correct, almost one-third of young Americans have delayed starting a family because of the bad economy.
Think about how last night’s debate sounded from the point of view of such people.
They are starting their...

“They’re not pro-life, they’re anti-women.”
– George Carlin (via yeahiwasintheshit)
I sincerely wish the GOP and the Republicans in Congress would give up on calling this whole birth control fiasco a ‘war on religion’ when we really know its their ‘war on sexually active women.’

Santorum: Being Female is a Mental Disorder →

mrsjojharrison:
It has been my experience that when dealing with females, you need to treat them as though they have a mental disorder… especially those that are constantly seeking equality in the workplace, the military, and in the home. Women need to know their place and need to know when it is okay for them to speak. They were put on this earth for two reasons, and...

9point lead for Obama over Romney in the latest WaPo/ABC News Poll source
» It’s the largest lead either candidate has held over one another since The Washington Post/ABC News started polling Romney-Obama match-ups in April of last year.

What Did We Learn in Florida? Ugly Politics...
politisane:
With the results in and the pundits having a field day making wild claims on TV about what Florida means for the rest of the primary season, it’s time to get down to brass tacks. The real question isn’t what Florida means for the rest of the primary season, but what did we learn from it? Did Romney finally show he can unite the Republican party and beat President Obama? Is the style...

Obama myth #4
Obama is a weak leader.
When stumping for Romney, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has a familiar theme: “We need a leader who will lead us to the moment . . . not to be cautious and safe and sit back and wait for someone else to do the hard work,” as he said in December.
