The Right Pro-Life Ladies
Feminists of the world, rejoice!
On Tuesday, California’s Carly Fiorina won the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, beating Tom Campbell and Chuck Devore. The breast cancer survivor will go head-to-head with Democrat Barbara “don’t call me ma’am” Boxer in November.
Nevada’s Sharron Angle (pictured) won the Republican nomination, and will face Democrat Harry Reid. She sounds like my kind of pro-life woman. Check it out:
“Angle is an anti-tax crusader and an uncompromising conservative. She favors abolishing the Departments of Education and Energy, phasing out Social Security and Medicare, and removing the United States from the United Nations.”
Wow. What’s not to love?
Tea Party-endorsed Nikki Haley, from my home state South Carolina, received a majority of the votes in the primary for the governor’s race, but will face a run-off.
Feminists are usually liberals, but one would think these strong female candidates would merit some praise. After all, if feminism is “the doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men,” don’t these women qualify, even if they’re conservative?
What disqualifies these ladies from feminist adulation is their stance on unborn life: they want to protect it, not destroy it. And feminists don’t dig that.

Indeed, she’s hit a number of my buttons.
I’d pretty much vote for anyone that could facilitate getting the US out of the UN. Actually, that should be, get the UN out of the US!
Add Jan Brewer to the list. The conservative women are rising quickly. Our new leaders are surfacing. Good luck to all of them. It’s high time we stopped the selfish act of abortion because of too many drinks, or too low of an IQ. Feminism is maturing.
I think I’m in love. It’s almost enough to make me want to move to Nevada.
I heard her on the radio on my way home last night on the Mark Levin show. Very impressive. I plan to donate what I can on her web site. There is hope.
I can see November from my house.
When the Republican men don’t have the cojones to be strong conservatives, Republican women rise to meet the challenge.
This man says: “Go get ‘em, ladies! We’re behind you all the way.”
Angle looks like the perfect running mate for Duncan Hunter.
Wait, I thought conservatives were turned off by “strong women.” At least that is what Hillary told us once before a certain dress got stained…
I’ll support any of these women every day of the week over gutless wonders like Tom Davis and his ilk!
I don’t care who saves the country from socialists!
Harry Canyon: The U.N. Building. What a joke! They turned it into low rent housing. It’s a dump.
Duncan Hunter turned out to be a huge disappointment, we don’t need to ressurect him. Carly Fiorina is poised to be another CA disappointment as well. The other ladies are Conservatives and therefore offer more promise in the battle to reclaim and repair our great Nation.
I pray the two California girls don’t revert to RINOism…the current political climate has forced at least one of them to run to the right. I hope this was an epiphany, and not simply a political calculation.
Conservatives need to hold their feet to the fire…but shouldn’t have to, if the candidates are who they portray themselves to be.
Of course it is, look who the tenant is.
First of all, remember that a Clinton said that. One must understand the meaning of certain words, like ‘is‘. In this case, the word ‘strong’ meant ‘ugly‘ or if you will, ‘fugly.’ I that regard, Hillary was correct.
Can you name one liberal woman in office that would rate above a 3 or 4 on a manly-man rating scale (attractive inside and out, and intelligent to boot?) I seriously doubt it!
La Shawn, IMHO the term “feminist” has been co-opted by the liberals. Therefore, given their definition of the term no conservative woman can ever be a feminist.
Being a pro-choice, progressive, liberal is a pre-requisite to being a feminist.
And from the obligatory snarky NYT’s 1st paragraph about Angle:
Oohhh, that .44 Magnum! Sheesh, get a life NYT. Nevada is a big gun state. Get over yourselves.
Let the Palinization begin.
Are those really her grandchildren?
Did she get a boob job?
How much did she spend on her clothes?
She likes guns. She likes violence against people who look different.
Blah blah blah blah.
Here is just one more reason to get more pro-lifers into Congress. it appears that Congress is also trying to lift the ban on abortions in the military overseas:
But wait! Those are the only reasons abortionists ever give as rationales for legal abortion!
But wait! Republicans you say?! They are the ones who are supposed to be against abortion, even for those very listed reasons!
You some kind of trouble-maker?
“Pro-life feminist”? Such a contradiction of terms deserves a response. Sure, feminists can be pro-life insofar as they believe that no choice exists, that life begins at conception, but it ends here. Feminism, by definition, is anti-family, which is why it’s laughable to call feminists “pro-life”. Philosophically speaking, their concern for life ends with the birth of the child. But hey, I’m a man, what would I know? Instead, I’ll let these women talk.
FLYOVERMAN #14 said, La Shawn, IMHO the term “feminist” has been co-opted by the liberals. Therefore, given their definition of the term no conservative woman can ever be a feminist.
Being a pro-choice, progressive, liberal is a pre-requisite to being a feminist.
THIS IS EXACTLY CORRECT! No real conservative pro-life woman would allow anyone to call her a feminist. I abhor the word…there is absolutely no relationship between conservative women and feminists – they are polar opposites.
Carly and Meg are both Rockefeller CFR/Trilateral Commission Global Elitists.
Carly ran HP into the ground and ripped off Lucent and AT&T before she robbed them blind too.
Meg is pro Illegal Alien and promoted Barbara Boxer before she decided to run.
I cannot believe the CA GOP, they have given us two more Arnolds and sold conservatives out once again.
Hey Harry! “The war is lost.”
Another nincompoop running for office as a Republican.
Actually I don’t really care for Hannity very much. I think he is a nincompoop and in man-crush with Gingrich.
Fiorina leaves a lot to be desired on a lot of fronts. Few people have run giant corporations into the ground in a relatively short time so at least we know what kind of nincompoop she is…
I’ll take Fiorina over Boxer any day. Carly isn’t my ideal candidate, but “Call me Senator” Boxer thinks that manmade “climate change” is the number one national security issue facing our country. Boxer also thinks that all blacks should engage in “group think” when it comes to politics. Remember when she talked down to that man representing the US Black Chamber of Commerce when he appeared before her committee, and raked him over the coals for not being “honored” to be able to talk to her? Fiorina’s made some mistakes in her life, but Barbara Boxer she ain’t!!
Hey, we’re neighbors! (NC is my home state)
One of my co-workers has this bumper sticker on her car …which is extremely bold considering that we both work in the entertainment industry.
I’m even too chicken to wear my “old school conservative” Reagan t-shirt.
Excuse me? We’re letting the liberals have the word “feminist” now without even a fight? When did feminism drift from just meaning an attitude that women are equal?
A feminist manifesto I would write would involve breast-feeding in public, the defense of gun rights-especially for smaller guns- a rejection of state-enforced hover parenting, and a total rejection of the patriarchy’s idea that women should have to “choose” between a family and a life outside the house so that no man ever has to go grocery shopping or do dishes! Abortion is a horrific sellout to the patriarchy and the status quo, not an expression of feminism. I find it questionable that anybody “pro-choice” would call themselves a feminist, and am not ready to cede the terms used to describe Susan B. Anthony and her group to such a warped patriarchal philosophy.
They lie, just like communists and the “civil rights” people of the 60s who said they wanted equality, but it turns out that they want “extra” rights, special rights, extra special “protection” and of course, quotas for hiring the unqualified and incompetent.
The “feminists” want to kill babies and make all people “embrace” — literally in some cases homosexuals of the feminine persuasion.
Feminists are ALWAYS liberals, never Conservatives.
Feminism is NOT about ‘female empowerment.’ It’s about bringing men down. Typical left wing attitude.
