GOP taps its top woman, mom of three, for Obama rebuttal
NBC ^ | 1/24/14 | Carrie Dann

Posted on 01/24/2014 2:55:58 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

After hearing from the [clown], Americans will hear a rebuttal from a woman unfamiliar to many of them.

Most of the national television audience hasn’t heard of Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, the highest-ranking Republican woman in Washington, D.C. and the standard-bearer tasked with delivering the GOP response to President Barack Obama’s address. But Republicans hope that she’ll make an impression with her unapologetically conservative message, her journey from humble origins to the U.S. Capitol, and her family-friendly biography as a busy mother of three young children. All three of her kids were born while she was serving in Congress; her eldest, Cole, was diagnosed with Down syndrome shortly after his birth in 2007. The way she balances her life at home and her career in Washington is something that her supporters say will appeal to voters, and most importantly – women.

“As a woman, a mother, a pro-life person, someone who is raising a special needs child, she’s dealing with life on many fronts, just as most people are,” says Marjorie Dannenfelser, the president of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List organization. “She’s an example of a very strong woman embracing timeless and traditional values.”

This idea that the other Party has to respond the State of the Union is simply nonsense-no one cares!

They must mean Washington State instead of D.C.

From what I’ve heard she’s a long time supporter of “immigration reform”.

******************************************************************
She is indeed and, as such, is intent (along with the other members of Boehner’s leadership team) on taking action which will ultimately destroy the American Republic. In the end, it doesn’t matter whether they are obtuse or know that that will be the final result of their actions—the American Republic will be destroyed either way.

I don’t know about her, so I will listen to her.

Sound like nobody else will. They’ve already decided that she’s not pure enough. And we wonder why we have trouble getting good candidates. Sheesh.

I long for the day when NBCnews actually does refer to Obama as the “clown”. I know, I know, when hell freezes over. But with the temperatures we are having now, that may not be too far away.

I agree with you. It is bad enough we have to suffer through day after day of various Obama quotes, but to bring out a person we never heard of to give a rebuttal is dumb. Most don’t even remember who gave the last one. Oh yeah. Rubio and he kept drinking that water (which is what everyone remembers). I hear she is an Amnesty lover so why bring her out as our representative which clearly she is not. I actually thought it was going to be Cruz.

Not pure enough? Being pro-illegal alien is a huge step back from “pure enough”. She is a disaster and does not deserve our support. And you must be joking on “good candidate”….when we have one then you will be able to complain about us not supporting YOUR “not completely pure candidate”.

Amazing, I have a friend who would like to run for Congress. He wants Fair Tax, cut spending, for right to work laws, no amnesty for illegals and is a business owner. Why isn’t he running? His brother is gay.

Conservative Teen,
Seems like the liberals have infiltrated the thread. SoFloFreeper surprises me that he is an illegal alien lover but perhaps it is a brain fart. livius and Mercat I don’t know enough about but it appears that they need to have their illegal alien nanny and pool boys so they are loving this chick who loves illegal aliens like they do.

Say NO to Cathy McMorris Rodgers……a hyphen freak to boot. No wonder they are so in love with her.

I'm sure Rinse PreyBust and the rest of the Vichy Republicrats will do whatever they can to suppress that response.
