CONSERVATIVE WOMEN: Tread Softly and Carry A Big Lipstick

I accidentally stumbled across the Joy Behar show, “Say Anything” last night- and like many a train wreck, couldn’t take my eyes off the carnage. I’ve never seen such a panel of whining, barking, griping self proclaimed “feminists” in my life. I’m so alienated from every thing spewing from their mouths that I’m certain there must be a 3rd gender out there for women like these because I’m too ashamed to have them share mine.
Conservative women around the country have always and WILL always be demonized by liberals– men and women alike. Conservative women in politics have never felt the need to burn their bras, have full blown mustaches, abort their children, flaunt hairy armpits and makeup-free faces to feel that they can be on equal footing with men- and for this they are hated.
There is nothing worse to a liberal, most especially a liberal woman, than a beautiful, strong AND conservative woman speaking out loudly and boldly about the issues… and doing it with their good-looking husbands by their sides, not as their constant whipping post but as their partners and helpmates. Conservative women do not feel the need to tear down and crucify the men in their lives in order to feel like they have an equal voice.
It’s this commentary that reminds me of at least one woman on woman smear that happened not that long ago is just a perfect example of how threatened liberals are by conservative women.
NASHVILLE – State Republican Chairman Chris Devaney today denounced as “petty and insulting” a Democratic legislator’s statement about her Republican women colleagues.
“You have to lift their skirts to find out if they are women. You sure can’t find out by how they vote,” said Rep. Janis Baird Sontany, D-Nashville.
The remark at a Saturday Democratic breakfast was initially reported by blogger Dru Smith Fuller. Sontany acknowledged the statement when asked and described it as “a glib, off-the-cuff remark” that “was inappropriate on my part.”
What a classy chic.
It’s apparent that liberals feel that every woman in elected office should feel the same way, think the same way and vote the same way. And if you don’t, be ready to defend your reproductive system.
Sontany does bring up the unfortunate but true fact that there are literal instances where “lifting the skirts” to determine gender is necessary… take for example, Barney Frank, Helen Thomas and Elena Kagan.
