    Republican Group Hug On Women continues

    I know everyone hates the other term so we'll use this one going forward. Jan Brewer down in AZ decided to keep the good press going today...

    I know threadjacking is the new Islamic terrorism around here but I do have to note I got the idea for "Group Hug" because that was the code name title for The Avengers during production, and it comes out in less than a month and is going to be awesome.

    As far as the law goes...once again, horrid PR for the GOP, and my wife, a woman who went through 4 miscarriages prior to having our 3rd child, is currently wishing Obama had punched Brewer out on the tarmac a few months back.

    it worked for Mary. Good thing she didn't teach at a Christian school-she might have been fired.
    Sister Pat Farrell, president of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, said that Catholics should be able to search for answers about faith without fear.

    Still sounds pretty outlandish. But then again, I don't live in Arizona. You do make it sound like you guys expect your women to fall in line.

The same ones who don't think the government should have control of our. . . medical decisions. . . want control of our. . . crap, wait. I'm so confused.

    Oh my god, threadjacking... Islamic terrorism, care to throw another wet blanket insult around, I can do it too? I know where you got group hug from, Dems just can't help but to think of themselves as Avengers against the evil dastardly GOP, just being themselves...

    If you and your wife feels that strongly about it, you both should go down there and punch Brewer. I don't hit women, I also think it is funny you are condoning violence against a woman who you claim is physically harming other women...

    I can't believe I derailed another thought provoking and mentally stimulating RP discussion.

    It was entirely on topic. The GOP in Arizona are morons. Thank you for admitting you took the thread off topic.

    I'm a pacifist, I wouldn't punch a man much less a woman (unless they were walking away from me with a pocket full of Skittles). My wife, not so much when she sees legislation like this, the kind that would prevent her from taking the necessary medicine to eject a non-viable blastocyst from her uterus. That and the comment was made humorously. My wife is a pacifist too. But as a woman who needed the Black Box drugs that appear to be outlawed by this law (look it up), she is indeed mightily peeved as she reads about this.

    Diana Rigg may be the hottest woman ever. She breaks my heart in On Her Majesty's Secret Service every time I watch it, and I have watched it many times.
