Women have been warned in a Planned Parenthood Action Fund email [1] that Alaska Republican Dan Sullivan, who is running for the U.S. Senate, and three other GOPs could affect their sex lives.
The warning came from Lena Dunham, the creator and start of the HBO series Girls. In the email Dunham urged women to remember Thom Tillis, who’s challenging Sen. Kay Hagan (D) in North Carolina, stuck a bunch of abortion restrictions into a bill that was supposed to be about motorcycle safety.
She also wrote that Joni Ernst, a Republican from Iowa running for the Senate who made hog castration (cutting pork) the focus of her first advertising campaign, has tried to block women from getting what they need at Planned Parenthood health clinics.
Dunham wrote that Rep. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.), who is running for the seat of Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.), is all about letting your boss tell you what kind of birth control your insurance should cover.
But the worst, as far as Dunham sees it, is Sullivan of Alaska, who just outright refuses to reveal whether he supports the Violence Against Women Act.
Planned Parenthood is wrapping itself around Dunhams email, telling women to vote like their sex lives depended on it.
The organization included a quote from Dunham in another of its recent emailings: I vote because the number of backwards, out-of-touch, downright freaking unbelievably anti-womens health politicians out there right now makes my blood boil. The crazy and depressing truth is that there are people running for office right now who could actually affect your life. PARTICULARLY your sex life. PARTICULARLY if youre a woman.
Sullivan is no stranger to the wrath of womens rights advocates.
Immediately after Sullivan won the August primary over Mead Treadwell, Planned Parenthood Action Fund spent $65,000 in television, Internet and social media advertising in Alaska attacking his position on abortion.
“The road to an anti-abortion Senate runs through Alaska and with the support of our volunteers, supporters, and donors, Planned Parenthood Action Fund will not let Dan Sullivan drive us down that road,” Dawn Laguens, the executive vice president of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, said in a statement.
One series of ads reads: Dan Sullivan would let the government control what you do with your body. A second reads: Dan Sullivan cant be trusted. He refuses to say if he supports the Violence Against Women Act. A third said: Dan Sullivan supports banning nearly all abortions for Alaska women.
We are wasting no time in reaching out to Alaska women. Thats why weve launched our biggest digital ad campaign so far this year to ensure voters know exactly where Dan Sullivan stands on issues important to womens health and rights, Laguens added.
It was the largest ad buy the organization made until six-figure campaigns were launched in September against Ernst and Gardner.
The anti-Sullivan ads appeared on social media and several statewide news sites, including the Juneau Empire, Alaska Dispatch, and Anchorage Dispatch News, among other local outlets.
Sullivans opponent, Sen. Mark Begich (D-Alaska), has tried to use Sullivans antiabortion stance to his advantage.
The Begich campaign ran a TV ad, “Alaska Women Need To Know”, [2] in August targeting both Sullivan and primary opponent Mead Treadwell for their opposition to funding for Planned Parenthood and abortion, as well as their support for the idea of allowing employers to decide if their insurance plans would cover birth control products.
Still, Sullivan is not shying away from his conservative theme.
In his latest TV ad, Wrong for Alaska, [3] Sullivan knocked Begich for his liberalism, raising property taxes as mayor of Anchorage, supporting President Obama 97 percent of the time and casting the deciding vote for Obamacare.
Sullivan has also accused Begich, in the TV ad Lame Tricks, [4]of faking a ride on a snowmobile to prove he was a real Alaskan. Begich told Sullivan, who was born in Ohio, that he had the frostbite to prove he really was on the snowmobile.
While Sullivan cant claim Alaskan roots, his wife can, and she did in the ad Roots. [5]
No matter who was born where, Sullivan has only had to look over his shoulder at Begich after winning the Alaska GOP Senate primary. The former U.S. Marine led Begich in the CBS News/New York Times/YouGov poll that was released Sept. 2 by 6 points, 44-38 percent.
The GOP-leaning Rasmussen Reports poll released Sept. 25 showed Sullivan with a 5-point lead over Begich.
Sullivans lead dropped to a 3-point margin in the Democrat-leaning Public Policy Polling survey that was released Sept. 21, but he was still in the lead 43-41 points and PPP called the race a toss-up.
The PPP survey showed Sullivan had gained 6 points since the last Public Policy Polling survey in early August, while Begich dropped 2 points.
Dean Debnam, the president of PPP, said Sullivan was able to consolidate his support among voters likely to vote Republican after winning the primary.
However, RealClearPolitics is still calling the Begich-Sullivan race a toss-up and Debnam said, Alaskas going to keep political watchers up late on election night.
As overstated as Debnams forecast might sound, it is an understatement.
Because of the remoteness of many towns and villages in Alaska, it could be days or even weeks, not hours, before the results of Alaskas November election are finalized.
I”m guessing liberals think that republicans never have sex or enjoy sex
The most effective form of birth control is to have a face and body like Lena Dunham.
The slut lifestyle requires free access to birth control and abortions or it just isn’t quite as fun.
democrat politicians will throw anything out there to scare the low info democrat voters. Next they will be saying the GOP will cause constipation that may last for days if not weeks. Sadly, way too many voters would believe it.
Good Lord what a pig!
Did you ever think that you’d live to see the day when a slut’s “rights” were a voting issue?
Silly me, I thught 503cs were not supposed to be engaged in poltical activities. Paging Lois Lerner.
Or that people would actually VOTE based on their sex life?
Every bedroom has a closet, for a reason!
LOL!
That too!!!
PLEEEEESE Get your brains OUT OF YOUR UNDERPANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
> The most effective form of birth control is to have a face and body like Lena Dunham.
Did you have to show that? I’ m eating breakfast.
Just one more example of a pro-choice / death liberal feminazi activist that has litte or no need for birth control. They’re always the one that scream the loudest about this issue. I suspect it’s a way of them getting back at male authority figures for not wanting to have sex with them in the past...
Mmmmmmm......the last refuge of a scoundrel---a woman's vagina.
Iowa women voters need to ask themselves:
"Would you want Bruce Braley in your vagina?
Why is this woman even in the public eye? She has no brain and while she isn’t exactly ugly, she isn’t the slightest bit attractive either.
Who cares what this immature girl thinks?
Her appearance and words resonate in an America filled with so many who look and sound and think just like her.
Red Hampshire is infested with these types of women...'female' supporters of the vile abortion-crazed Anne Kuster are running an ad against opponent Marilinda Garcia that is just beyond the pale...it uses ALL the buzz words designed to frighten the ignorant; 'extremist', 'tea party', and so forth. Garcia wants to block a woman's right to 'health care'...we know what they mean by 'health care'.
Needless to say; the 'womyn' appearing in Kuster's ad look like recent graduates from the Rosa DeLauro School of Beauty. The foul-mouthed Kuster resembles a linebacker for the Red England Patriots, and they are scared that enough shallow men will line up for Garcia on Election Day because she's a charming little cutie.
Ebola won't keep me behind closed doors in my house...Red Hampshire womyn already do that...b-r-r-r-r-r-r!
My beloved,and departed,Dad would have said,after seeing this photo,"how much does she charge to haunt a house?"
