March Against War on Women
Just reading through twitter and it looks like this was a well attended event across the country. Lots of pics of the signs and crowds. People are mad about the terrible laws being passed and the GOP in Congress.

This isn't going away no matter how much the GOP tries to put it down.

Republicans have Awakened a Livid Female Giant Who Will Make Them Pay

By: RmuseApril 29, 2012

A conception or mental creation that is baseless or unbelievable is said to be imaginary, and it implies delusion or myth in some contexts. It is hardly appropriate for aggressors to claim their victims are imagining an attack when there is documented evidence of injury, and especially when the aggression continues unabated, but that is precisely what Republicans are claiming in their war on women. Perhaps Republicans hope that by lying often and loudly about an imaginary war on women that women will ignore or forget the devastation and injury they have endured for the past year and support their assailants. Apparently, that is what Republicans are hoping will happen and they are ramping up a campaign to convince voters, and especially women voters, that there is no war on women.

<..> Women are, and should be, incensed at the second-class status that Republicans are legislating them into with law after law abridging their rights and protections. Who do Republicans think they are waging an all-out unrelenting war on women and their rights, and how dare they think that just because they say there is no war on women that women will believe their lies? Women are not stupid, but that is the implication Republicans are making with their media blitz disputing their attacks on women and belief that they can just “get the women” to support their campaign to put women back in the Dark Ages. As the President said, women are not, and have not, closed their eyes to the hideous assault on their rights and yesterday they took the first step to destroy their attackers. In 55 cities, women united against the war on women to tell the entire country they have had enough of Republican misogyny and this is only the beginning.

The sleeping giant that is American women is wide awake and they are livid and looking for retribution. They are not sitting idly by hoping the Republican assault will subside, and the GOP is going to pay in the general election. The march and rallies across the nation should serve notice to Republicans that no impassioned Senate or House floor speeches is going to convince them there is not a war on women, or that Willard’s campaign to “get the women” on board is going to have any success because Republicans have battered women for too long and they are not taking it any longer. It is stunning that Republicans voted against women’s rights and access to healthcare in the same week they are telling them there is no war against them. It is beyond the pale that the GOP has such low regard for women that as they are beating them down, they say there is no war; women will make them pay and they are not alone. The men who love their wives, daughters, mothers, and sisters are just as furious as women and they are mobilizing and supporting women’s movements to end this Republican war on women’s rights which is, in reality, a war on human rights.

The more the repubs lie, the angrier women get.

RE: March Against War on Women
Did you see this? This was Boehner a couple of days ago. When I first saw this, I literally started screaming at the tv, I was so angry and disgusted. And this is exactly what that article is referring to. Boehner and the rest of the Republicans are abusers -- when the abused tells them to stop and/or fights back, they get their tightie-whities twisted in a knot and they are oh-so-offended that the absued has called them on their despicable behavior. So, what do they do? They double down and heap more abuse on the abused.


Silence is consent.

I saw this Boehner tantrum. He's trying to act like this is bad for the Dems to say the House is out in space. What he neglects to say is that they are going to take money from the ACA and women's health care to pay for it. Hell no! Boehner, we're not going to put up with that.
