RNC Statement on Women’s History Month

Posted March 1, 2014

WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus and Co-Chairman Sharon Day released the following statement marking the beginning of Women’s History Month:

“Today marks the beginning of Women’s History Month, which gives us all the opportunity to celebrate women’s contributions to our country throughout our history—and especially to honor those women who fought to make this country a more just and equal place,” said Chairman Priebus.

“The Republican Party is proud to have played a leading role in securing women’s right to vote. When Susan B. Anthony defied the law and voted in 1872, she proudly voted the Republican ticket. She and other suffragists worked with her friend Republican Senator A.A. Sargent to introduce the 19th Amendment. And it took a Republican Congress to finally pass it in 1919.

“The Republican Party continues to uphold the principle of equal opportunity for all that has guided us from the very beginning. And as we celebrate the women of our party and country this month, we continue our fight for equal opportunity.”

“I’m always inspired by the stories of our country’s strong-willed women. I’m especially inspired by those suffragettes and their decades-long fight for voting rights,” said Co-Chairman Day.

“Republican women have a history of being trailblazers, breaking ground and glass ceilings — from Margaret Chase Smith, the first woman to be elected to both the House and the Senate, to the nation’s first Latina governor, Susana Martinez of New Mexico and the country’s youngest sitting governor, Nikki Haley of South Carolina.

“Republicans continue to offer a positive agenda for America’s women, as we work to create more job opportunities, lighten the tax burden, and reduce the cost of healthcare. Our policy goals are driven by the desire to do what’s best for women—not by scoring cynical political points.

“Today my granddaughters have opportunities that past generations could only dream about, but we can’t forget women in countries around the world who don’t enjoy equal rights and the same opportunities. Let’s rededicate ourselves to being a beacon of freedom and opportunity this Women’s History Month.”

So either Sarah Palin is not Republican or she’s not a woman. Last I checked, she was both and quite impressive and remarkable at each. The picture he just described above is everything Sarah exemplifies. What chutzpah!

I am leaving this up to you (readers) to respond to Reince Priebus. You can go to his Facebook page, Twitter thread using the post above or under his blog at this link to comment. Above all.. please donate to SarahPac and forget the PC-ridden and rotten to the core leaders of our party. They are the ones who are the reason for our party’s denise. This alone gives the left reason to say there is a war against women on our side. That mantra that is coming from the left .. is exactly right if they do this to Sarah. Like or dislike her, they are shooting themselves (and us) in the foot by doing this. Fools. But this will make her bigger.

What kind of beacon of freedom and opportunity is it to dismiss the most important woman in our lifetime – one they owe their successes, not failures to. It is nothing short of mindboggling and hostile. Enough is enough!

This is an outrageous omission and a deliberate one to spark a fuse among us. I am suspicious they are declaring war yet again because someone behind the scenes must be very nervous she might run in 2016. How dare they? Sarah IS a monumental figure in American not just women’s history. They cannot wrap their heads around that. I chimed in. So did others. More to come..

I thought he was going to pull it off.
The only one I was ‘worried’ about was Lt Gov.
For ‘some’ Jackson may have been a little over the top, I liked him but they got him in some misspeaks early on.

I don’t like McAwful but I have a feeling he will be deep in Hillary’s camp if she decides to run....Remember he was going to ‘buy’ their house in NY (probably did, just couldn’t make it to public)....Understand Bill rents his carriage house and guest quarters back to the Gov for his SS detail???? and conveniently, it is about the same as his mortgage...(Yawn....)

Too bad they can’t all be like Truman...Finish your tour, go home. Keep your Security.... AND that from a man that probably did raise the rankles of many, many people and would have been a viable target...

Bump to that!

His record is TERRIBLE....we LOST in 2012 to a Marxist! RINSE SHOULD’VE BEEN FIRED THE DAY AFTER THE 2012 ELECTION!

Sarah has done more for the party - getting Governors elected and even gaining a MAJORITY in the House - than this loser could even imagine doing.

FIRE RINSE!!

I see the pitiful, PDS-flame throwing quislings have shown up.

Who do they hold up as leaders?

I really don’t get their purpose behind bashing Sarah.

Of course he wouldn't mention Sarah. She's not acceptable to the Republican Party -- she has principles.

The world of conservative politics is the world that Palin is important in, she has more reshaped the republican party in her image by participation in over 100 campaigns, than any other politician in history.

Ted Cruz: “I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin”

Jim DeMint: Sarah Palin “I believe she’s done more for the Republican Party than anyone since Ronald Reagan”
