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.”

It is becoming clear the Bolshecrats view women as whores, if you don’t pay them for favors you are a misogynist.

There, folks, is the gist of Obama’s re-election campaign. The Dems are going to try to ignore the economy, and Obama’s trashing of the Constitution. Instead, they’re going to try to change the subject. We need to ignore their diversion, and keep our conversations on the issues that are important.

It’s time that women start to seriously think about what’s moral and what’s constitutional. Otherwise, this country will fail.

Curls are great but it doesn’t look like she washes or brushes them. That’s not a sexist comment. It’s about personal hygiene.

Ending the war on women does not include Miss Blabbermouth.

The war on Seahags is still on.

Democrats planned this entire controversy from the start. They initiated it through the media, and currently seek to define the terms of the battle by using the concerted efforts of their media allies to press the attack. Unfortunately, Washington Republicans appear too clueless to understand how they are being used, much less how to respond.

And so, a battle for religious freedom has been successfully recast as a fight over "contraceptive rights". While the GOP leadership stumbles and babbles incoherently (as usual) in an effort to avoid tainting themselves with anything that even resembles a principle, Democrats are already planning the next attack. It's a pitiful spectacle, but that's why I'm no longer a Republican.

Listen, mayonnaise, you don’t speak for me.

I’m not at war with anyone. Perfectly happy with MY life.

And I take FULL responsibility for that fact, and for my happiness, because I’ve worked for it.

So FUDW!!

Through history, only Jim Traficant had a more ridiculous and idiotic hair style, of any member of Congress, ever.

A. There is no such thing as a “war on women”

Sure there is. A large minority of the US population, mostly Democrats, wish to deny woman the right to be equal to any man in a fight. If that's not a war on women, I don't know what would be, except may promoting a surgical procedure that kills women over half of the times it is performed.

The 'WAR' is to protect our Constitution and tax payers.

Tell em; Repubs! Time to remind the Dems that women are taxpayers too. . .
