Those classy Minnesota Republicans!

Take a look at what those classy Republicans up in Minnesota came up with to highlight the differences between the women of the Republican Party and the women of the Democratic Party: Is this really what our political dialog has devolved into?

Jimmy Carter quits the Southern Baptist Church!

Perhaps I should not place an exclamation point after the headline but I am astonished that Jimmy Carter would take such a position.

“Why do liberals hate women?”

James T. “Hip Musings” Harris is wondering why liberals hate women, which got me to wondering, “Why does James T. Harris think he can own a woman?” The woman in question is Harris’ own daughter, who he seems to think he’ll own his daughter right up until the days she leaves his house as [...]

“it’s women liberals hate”

“it’s women liberals hate.”

So says Dad29, a right-wing blogger noted for his own hatred of women (or at least women who serve in the military).

In discussing a statistic that 41% of female veterans seen at the West Los Angeles VA Healthcare Center reported they were victims of sexual assault while in the [...]
