Wasserman Schultz: ‘It’s Time Romney And The Rest of The Republican Party End The War on Women They Started’ By Elizabeth Harrington March 5, 2012

(CNSNews.com) – Warning that his “anti-women” stance would cost him votes in his campaign for the White House, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) said Friday presidential candidate Mitt Romney needs to end the Republican “war on women.”

During a conference call briefing accusing Romney of “pandering to the extreme right-wing of his party on the issues that matter to Washington women,” Wasserman Schultz and representatives from Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America singled out the former Massachusetts governor as a politician who would “allow big corporations to deny health care options to their female employees.”

The call also included a statement from a Catholic hospital nurse who claimed birth control is so expensive she has to stay on her parents’ health care plan.

“Playtime is over when it comes to women’s health decisions and no one needs to hear this message more than Mitt Romney,” said Wasserman Schultz, who chairs the Democratic National Committee and sponsored the call to targeted Washington state voters ahead of their caucuses. Romney won on Saturday, further cementing his status as frontrunner.

Wasserman Schultz went on to say Romney’s reversal on the Blunt Amendment – which sought to insert conscience rights into ObamaCare – was not his first “flip-flop when it comes to women.”

A. There is no such thing as a “war on women”
B. If there were, I would refuse to suspend any war on women until Wasserman Schultz agrees to suspend her war on pretty.

She’s the DNC chairman. It is her job to slam the republicans. What I find interesting (and revealing) is this is the issue they choose to address right now.

This woman (?) is deranged. She had better hope there is never a war waged against ugly people. This cow is ugly inside and out!

Romney wouldn’t fight in Vietnam when his country was at war. He’s not going to fight any women. Romney kept France safe during America’s war in Vietnam. Vive le poulet!

BTW, I never take anyone with a hyphenated last name seriously, unless the person is a judge presiding over a case to which I am a party.

I’m old fashioned that way.

Ruh roh, even Romney is a social conservative now. I guess the establishment Republicans don’t get to dodge the social issues try though they might. Dang it, we just want to talk about gasoline please. We’re dumping that wacky Santorum guy, so can’t you please just talk about the things we win on?

That's the real news. If she feels the need to rally the woman vote, they're in trouble.

There is no economic issue they can run on anymore. Even "tax the rich" isn't bringing in any new voters.

They are trying to shore up the base, while the more flighty voters are heading for the exits.

If the main weapon used for the "war on women" is the ugly stick, Debbie is it's worse casualty so far.

They will do anything NOT to talk about the economy. They are setting the hook and getting ready to reel us in. DO NOT take the bait.

If it weren't for a MAN, NONE of the women on the planet today would be here.

If there ever was a case for killing babies (Abortion), Liberals are IT!
