For House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the “war on women” and victimhood are always in style when election season rolls around.

According to CNS News.com, on Thursday, Pelosi said on a conference call that American women have been victims throughout the history of the nation.

“It was a struggle all the way,” Pelosi said. “Women marched. Women starved. Women were starved. Women were force-fed. Women could barely speak up in their own homes.”

She continued:

Women left their homes to take the message. And it was successful, and the right to vote, again, so precious, so hard fought. ... We hope women will continue to exercise forcefully, because then all of the issues we care about, whether it's equal pay for equal work, paid sick leave, affordable quality child care, raising the minimum wage, women's health and--and safety issues will all be well-served.

Democrats are pushing their agenda, titled “When Women Succeed, America Succeeds,” and they hope to win the female vote by convincing women they are victims and can only succeed with the government by their side throughout their lives....

Starved? Forced fed? Sounds like women are veal

We need more muslims to build the fabric of america. That will solve all these problems.

They were starved AND force-fed!!

How does that work?

Certain individual women on a hunger strike were force-fed in Holloway Prison in Great Britain during their women's suffrage movement but nothing like that happened in the U.S. As far as I know nobody was starved on the issue anywhere who didn't do it to herself. And that was over a century ago.

Maybe Nan is as confused on the issue as she is on almost everything else.
