Martha McSally Wants to Kick Rick Santorum

Martha McSally, the first female Air Force pilot to fly in combat who is seeking ex-Rep. Gabrielle Giffords’s seat in Arizona’s special election, blurted out in a TV interview Friday that she wanted to “go and kick him in the jimmy.”

“You know, I agree with many of the things that Rick Santorum says, but when I heard this, I really just wanted to go and kick him in the jimmy,” McSally, a Republican, said on “Fox & Friends,” referring to Santorum’s recent controversial comments about women in the military.

And if a male threatened physical violence against a liberal female (example: Nancy Pelosi), he'd have to apologize or face the wrath of the pinko media.

Sorry, tough lady, but if Santorum said that women should not be in dangerous situations in combat, then I wholly agree. The full story of Jessica Lynch has not been to well spread around. She was raped repeatedly by the muslim scum! But the feminazis tried to hide all that to pretend that nothing happened.

No women should be in combat, period. And certainly not as fighter pilots. My God! Don’t we have more respect for women than that?

Great another GOP circular firing squad moment. And kick him in the privates, heck if you are going to prove women are as good as men at least say you are going to punch him in the face.

Yes, it is a gruesome story. Women DO NOT belong in combat.

Feminists, you cannot win here.

If you think women are the same as men, what are you going to do about all the girly girls who want to look pretty at the oscars? You have to let people be people. Girls are different. Men are expected to treat women with respect and women haven’t treated men with respect in decades. See any tv couple or commercial. Men are fat and dumb. See every female birthday card. It’s all about male bashing.

You cant have it both ways.

“Santorum ... “The issue is … how men would react to seeing women in harm’s way or potentially being injured or in a vulnerable position and not be concerned about accomplishing the mission,” he said.”

I think he makes a good point.

Do you think men are immune to a little gang rape?

Think they are not going to do it because they condemn homosexuality?

Oh how little you know of their culture, for you see, it would be the VICTIM of the gang rape who was homosexual in their eyes - not the perpetrators of it.

FOX & Friends AKA the Romney Nomination Channel, spinning again.

This individual may be fine as a combat pilot, but women in gerneal should not serve in combat roles.

There are too many psychological, biological, historical and cultural reasons why they should not, and allowing a handful of exceptions to make the rules for the majority of non-exceptions makes no sense.

But then, very little of what we see these days DOES.

Hmmm...I live in the district, and had no idea the idiot girl was running.

But I’ve despised that prissy prima donna since her days in the military, where she was treated with kid gloves and allowed to pull stunts that would have ended my career.

And as someone who made many trips to PSAB and was never allowed to go anywhere other than by plane, I had no sympathy for her whining.

Damn! I’ll be proud to go out and vote against that worthless bitch.

I'm not sure you understand what I wrote. Women don't belong anywhere near combat for any reason. Sorry. The fact that men might be raped has NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT I WROTE.

Thanks, Doogle, for pointing out the obvious..another blatant attempt by Politico to stir up dissension in the GOP ranks.

BTW, McSally was the lead plantiff againt the DOD order, before the Iraq war, that required that all female US military personel, when off base, even if in uniform, be required to wear the abiya..to cover their hair and faces...It caused a high stink, and was quickly repealed..

The lady's got cojones...

In a society based on anuclear family, which is how most societies have been basedin the past, the role of defender of that family has traditionally fallen on the male for very logical biological reasons.

Extending that to the society of the whole, the proper postion on this subject is pretty obvious.

People who argue against this have to deal with over 4,000 years of recorded history and reams of biological data.

Good luck, ,you’ll need it.

The people in charge at the time didn’t want people to know the whole story either.

“The lady’s got cojones... “

No, but she had a ton of political protection. After all, she had flown 100 hours patrolling the no fly zone over Iraq - something I had done in just 2 weeks there, once. But she was female, and I was male, so she was treated with kid gloves.

Oh...and the guys I knew who flew with her were NOT impressed by her flying, either. But she was the first female fighter pilot, so she could do no wrong...
