I believe that I’m entitled to free plumbing service whenever I need it, as well as free oil changes for my car.

Who is Rachel Marsden and what conservative credentials does she have?

We're also going to try to replace some of our older servers and failing equipment this year so we're going to add a little extra to our FReepathon goals. John is estimating ten to fifteen thousand to do this and I'd like to get it all in place and working before the election cycle is fully heated up, so we'll try to bring in a little more now if we can and the rest next quarter.

Obama has set the trap and the GOP has fell in. Helps seal the women voters.

“...what conservative credentials does she have?”

Why are you questioning her...She has the same reasoning skills as Meghan McCain. Well Duh!

I somehow got on the dnc mailing list when I did a poll about how bad romney is. I decided not to unsubscribe so I could see first hand what the dimocrats are up to. So this is what I got today. By the way, I sent a reply saying:

“Must the party lie to win? I researched this and found what your saying is totally false.”

Linda —

This is just unconscionable: Republicans in Congress are trying to make it legal for ANY employer to deny birth control coverage to their employees.

Yes, you read that right. Republicans are on track to give corporations the power to deny women access to health care.

The vote is set for this week — we must act IMMEDIATELY.

We must raise $50,000 by midnight tonight to get activists mobilized and ads up and running in Republican districts about this atrocious assault on women’s health care.

Will you contribute $3 or more right now to our urgent Women’s Health Rapid Response Fund?

We can’t afford to fall short and delay taking action for another day. Women across the country deserve to know that right-wing Republicans intend to take women’s health care back to the dark ages. Please give what you can today.

Because I didn’t know who she was! I know who Meghan McCain is and don’t believe she has conservative credentials. Do you?

[Nifster]

A Canadian based in Paris.....nothing she writes is surprising. The only question is why in the world does she consider herself ‘conservative’?

I am so tired of these ridiculous ‘academe’ types telling us what for

[Lazamataz]

Here is the explanation.

The media, of course, complicit as they always are, obfuscate the issue on purpose.

Rachel is a member of the Kenyan lizard's largest voting bloc: single women. Conservative vs free stuff? Why not? First Amendment? Just a scrap of ancient parchment.
America is doomed.

Her article have been in Townhall.com since 2008 and she is a columnist with Human Events Magazine, and Editor-In-Chief of GrandCentralPolitical News Syndicate, distributing to over 3,000 newspapers nationwide. She is also a media and political campaign strategist and TV/radio commentator. If you read the comments after the article, you notice that most disagree with her

Obama has it right? A country on the pill, abortion and gay marriage is in sad shape. Demographics rule.

[MestaMachine]

You know...women and others...are awfully fond of saying that men think with their ummmm... genitals. My, my, my how things have changed now. Now we have women thinking with their vaginas. I can’t figure which is more insane and stupid.
Congratulations, feministas. You have finally succeeded in becoming exactly what you have railed against...a complete sexual object unworthy of consideration as anything more. It is the only place going full circle can end and there it is.

[microgood]

Childishness mixed with the entitlement mentality.

[Monterrosa-24]

Meghan McCain and this “writer” have the same pop-Left anti-intellectual thought processes. But they both claim to be sorta, you know, Republican and even sometimes sorta you know yeah even conservative.

[ecomcon]

And in neither case is "just don't have sex" a realistic solution for any halfway normal human being with reproductive drive in its prime.

Breathtaking in its stupidity. On the one hand, women are self controlled, intelligent, able to make "choices" and are capable of anything. On the other hand, even "halfway normal" women are unable to keep from having sex, married or not. Only abnormal people can refrain from having sex, even for a short time.

[Chgogal]

A Conservative just has to answer any Social Conservative Issue as follows:

You can do whatever the heck you want. But do NOT make your fellow citizens pay for YOUR CHOICES. Your choices are NOT my business and most importantly NOT the Government’s business. As soon as you accept Government Handouts via Government Programs, the Government will dictate to you how to behave; what toilet to use, what light bulb to use, what text book to use, what crop to plant, what health care choices you have, etc. etc. Aren't you uncomfortable laundering YOUR hard earned dollars through the DC Mafia? I know I am and I am willing to fight for your take home pay and your freedom to live life the way YOU CHOSE.

Agreed. I believe I have a “right” to an endless supply of non-fattening chocolate ice cream too.
