Republicans and Women


Why does the Republican Party seem to hate women so much? I don’t know the answer to that question but I wish someone would answer it for me. There will always be those that will support the party even when they seem to be going crazy. I think the problem is that they have to oppose President O’bama on everything he does.

The latest thing is birth control for women. Why does the Republican Party oppose this? Because President O’bama is for it. That is the only reason. I understand why the Catholic Church is against it. They are only for little boys and what they can do to them. That is the extent of their concern. I will admit that I have absolutely no respect for the Catholic Church. Any organization that routinely protects pedophiles while amassing enormous wealth is closer to Satan than Jesus. That’s just my opinion. So when the Catholic Church says they don’t want to pay for birth control for women the response to them should have been so what. I bet they provide vasectomy coverage for men. If they don’t want to provide fair and equal coverage for everyone then they should get out of that business.

The Republicans are following those that call themselves The Religious Right. This group has lots of influence in the party. The problem is they are following them down a hole only because they wear the robe. They are not paying attention to the actions of those they follow.

They say women should not have abortions because the child being aborted has a right to live. I get that position. Then a woman says she wants to take a pill to prevent pregnancy and they are against that too. They also say that if you can’t afford to raise children then you should not be having them. I guess they are going to decide who can have sex and who cannot. What kind of country would that be?

Republicans also vote against equal pay for women. Why should a woman be paid less just because she is not hanging. I don’t understand how they can even defend their position but they stick to it.

 I know the Republican Party stands for more than the issues that I’m talking about but if they continue to discriminate against women they may lose part of their voting block. What is the Republican Party’s problem with women?
