Governor Palin Hits Pelosi’s Economic Agenda for Women

Governor Palin had the following to say about Nancy Pelosi’s economic agenda for women:

07-23-13 Tweet

She also posted it via Facebook:

Odd. Pelosi sees women as less than equal and thus needing government intervention. Glad girls today know the truth re: women’s strength and equal opportunity. I’m glad my girls know the truth.

She links to this article at McClatchy:

WASHINGTON — At a summer lunch with reporters in her Capitol conference room, Rep. Nancy Pelosi rolled out an ambitious economic agenda for women with next year’s congressional elections in mind.

The California Democrat launched a legislative agenda of family-friendly policies, such as paycheck fairness for women, an increased federal minimum wage, and President Barack Obama’s proposed early childhood education initiative.

The agenda, coming as the legislative season begins to make way for next year’s campaigns, was designed to stand in contrast to bills being debated under the GOP majority on the House floor. "It’s all about letting women know there’s an opportunity for something different," Pelosi said, over salads, sandwiches and sodas.

Pelosi, the only woman to have been House speaker, could regain that title again, if Democrats pick up the 17 seats needed to pry the House majority from the Republicans.

That prospect remains a heavy political challenge when newly drawn congressional districts could give the GOP the advantage through the decade.

"It’s possible, but certainly not an easy feat," according to an analysis from The Rothenberg Political Report.

Pelosi’s new agenda seizes a potential opening as Republicans nationally have done damage to their brand among some women voters. The GOP supported several candidates during the last election who expressed views about women’s issues that many voters found outmoded or simply inaccurate. Republicans lost seats the GOP was favored to win in Senate races in Missouri and Indiana.

At the same time, House Republicans have furthered the perception of a "war on women," some have argued, by resisting such legislation as the Violence Against Women Act, which reauthorized domestic violence programs, and supporting a bill passed last month to restrict some abortions.

Based on the shallowness of Ms Fluke’s arguments, I rather believe it was gratuitous sex with professors that really won the day...

Just substitute an Obamaphone or a free condom instead of meat and you got it.

Steve Flesher is a gay rights “conservative.” He is the founder of gayconservative.org and pushes an extreme anti family agenda.

This is a quote from his web page after the US Supreme Court legalized gay marriage.

What it means for Equal Marriage Arizona is that the movement goes forward with efforts to bring marriage equality to Arizona. Having already taken the wind out of Cathy Herrod’s sails, Equal Marriage Arizona happily released to the public their intent to immediately begin collecting signatures to put the measure on the ballot next year. Warren Meyer said, “The US Supreme Court said today that the states can decide this issue for themselves, and this legitimizes our Equal Marriage Arizona efforts, allows Arizona voters the chance to guarantee the freedom to marry and guarantee religious freedoms. We’re confident the Arizona voters are ready to say YES to both of these interrelated freedoms.”

**********************

Petitions will be printed today and our volunteer efforts will start tomorrow. People can get a petition by calling us at 480-625-8620. Whether you’re straight or gay, conservative like I am, or liberal this is an effort we all can embrace – an effort for guaranteed freedom to marry and a guarantee for religious freedom. The Supreme Court said it’s up to us, so now it’s up to all of us.

If you’re in Arizona, it’s time to start work. Everywhere else…smile!

I don’t think he should be promoted here.

And I just looked at Conservatives4Palin and this gay rights activist has authored FIFTEEN of the articles on their front page. He must be their number one columnist.

He says on his website: “DOMA is no more. That is something to celebrate.”

What is the deal with him?

There are a number of gay activists that use Sarah Palin to advance their agenda.... Steve Flesher, Tammy Bruce, Kevin Dujan and even Andrew Breitbart, who was a founder of GOProud.
