The War on Women™ is a gigantic political success.
When I first heard about it, and later when I saw that stupid 30-year old law student, I thought it could not possibly be anything other than a joke (shows you what I know).
The War on Women™ has elected far-left Senators, FOR SIX YEARS, from Indiana and Missouri. It has elected a hack with no political experience to the governorship of the Old Dominion.
It has not failed yet, and it won’t fail until we find a way to beat it.
Jim,you are right to “TM” it,and equally right to note that the current phase of it began with Sandra Fluke,who the Left fashioned into the Celebrity of the Momentby giving her a forum at the Convention-——her momentary passage across the political skies stirred up the base,the already-converted, but revealed to many more the ineradicable sense of entitlement and laughable immaturity with which the Left imbues this little boutique issue of theirs.Above all,the Left grants the acolytes who buy into this and the rest of their issues af self-congratulatory sense of identity as fearless warriors unafraid to do battle with those who would deprive them (and by extension “all” women) of what they believe are their “rights”, rights that,coincidentally, OTHER people have NO right not to have to pay for.
I'm afraid this is a moral problem, not simply a political one so it is going to be extremely tough to beat in this generation.
We lost that war long ago when women were talked into "sexual liberation" (read: libertinism) and were convinced neither chastity nor a decent husband and family was "necessary" or even desirable for fulfillment as a "liberated" woman. In fact, all those prevented "self-fulfillment". In other words, they bought a cunning lie of the Devil and the feminist movement (a completely unBiblical and destructive world view) took root in their hearts.
In the meantime, men's moral underpinnings and genuine masculinity and responsibility in it's best forms were destroyed by the same lies and libertinism. Hugh Hefner's "philosophy" took root in men's hearts about the same time as well and the ugly results fifty years later are what we are reaping as a society.
