Should JD Vance be in trouble for comments in 2021 about ‘childless cat ladies’?

Funny that people are more concerned with a cat lady comment Vance made but no concern about VP Harris’s energy comments. End oil leases on federal lands and end off shore oil drilling. That is 38% of US oil production. She also wants to end fracking. If you thought $5/ gallon gas’s was bad you ain’t seen nothing yet.

“leftist childless cat ladies”

Sounds like an ACCURATE Description to me. Truth hurts, GOOD !!!!

[Jonny7797]

What a stupid question to ask.

[napscoordinator]

They are vetting Vance which is normal. Republicans should do the same. But for some reason they don’t. That quote from kamala that young voters are stupid should be everywhere in the media. She literally said 18-34 year olds are stupid. Republicans as always give democrats a pass.

[Dilbert San Diego]

But then any VP choice would be attacked by the Democrats on this sort of crap.

[redangus]

Na, then you’d be painted as an asocial, religious zealot, unfit for public office because of your radical religious views.

THIS>>> “I think he is exactly right and should stand behind what he said. Why let them define the issue?”

To all those on FR agreeing with the evil left, do not fall for this. Defend JD against the satanic scum who tried to murder Trump. They have gotten away with an endless train of abuse and it’s time to destroy them by any means necessary.

I always take political advice from an air head like Anniston......NOT!

[SuperLuminal]

Perfect, if understated, message/statement...

[packagingguy]

Here we go with Republicans wanting to take away IVF.

Just like in the 1990s when the Hildabeast said Republicans just wanted to poison the children.

Perhaps what she is neglecting to mention are the abortions that she had along the way that make it harder to have kids later in life.

A large percentage of women who have difficulty having kids in their late 30s and 40s have had one or more abortions along the way

> I am curious. How did Jennifer Aniston of all people come across this quote from Vance ? Anniston maybe a Hollywood Democrat but she doesn’t strike me as a political junkie who does opposition research. The answer is she didn’t. The quote was given to her by Democrat operatives and opposition researchers and SHE was asked to respond to the quote for maximum effect.

His comments were true, at least for leftist child-hostile women; but they were not constructive, and they are making needless enemies for Trump.

[rdcbn1]

I think Kamala is the ideal candidate to run against.

Don't want to force her out of the race too soon.

Best to let her do as much damage to herself as possible before hitting her with the good stuff

The young people she is courting have the attention span of a gnat

Stating what the norm among Democrats is not primal hatred and disgust, as Corie Whalen, a onetime communications director for former Michigan Representative Justin Amash, a Republican, posted on X, which is what the accuser examples, while the mean number of children ever born to women aged 15–49 in 2015–2019 being just 1.3, (the majority being to formerly married women), and with an increase of the elderly population relative to the working age population.

And you can be childless, as I choose in God's will, and yet oppose being childless as being the norm. Which is due to the embrace of contraception, contrary to the principle of the word of God, and which has cost the US greatly in sous, lives and money.

The United States is expected to spend more than $26 billion annually on HIV. (https://www.healthline.com/health/hiv-aids/facts-statistics-infographic)

The CDC estimates indicate about 20 percent of the U.S. population – approximately one in five people in the U.S. – had an STI on any given day in 2018, and STIs acquired that year will cost the American healthcare system nearly $16 billion in healthcare costs alone.

Getting out the popcorn for when the FreeRepublic cat ladies show up.

[TornadoAlley3]

Both parties do it. It's called opposition research.. Vetting. Looking at everything before you pick your running mate. Having a pre planned answer for everything in your past that will need to be explained.

Then you pick the nominee with the baggage that won't hurt your campaign. Everyone has skeletons. Better to know what it is. Kamala and Shapiro have plenty.

JD will be fine. He needs to get his wife out there. She will help him.

There is no reason we as conservatives cannot mock and ridicule people who make and support the kinds of decisions that Leftist females make, and at that same time, hit them on the issues.

I don’t understand why people think it has to be one or the other.

For example, I am completely against the US Navy providing lessons to Naval personnel on the acceptance of homosexuality, because that I believe that every single precious second (and I do mean single second) spent indoctrinating them on the joys of accepting homosexuality is a single precious second that is NOT spent on training them ship handling, damage control, or weapons systems.

If they wanted to spend that single precious second on something I agree with, such as training in proper equipment maintenance, I wouldn’t have a problem with that because I believe it pulls in the same direction that the goals of a warfighting naval force do.

Indoctrinating for homosexuality and training for effective warfighting do NOT pull in the same direction, so I oppose that. Same for DEI. Same for Affirmative Action. Same for social experimentation that puts females into combat roles as the physical equals of males. Those are antagonistic the the end of effective warfighting.

So, with respect to ridiculing women who forgo raising a family for all the Leftist reasons they give, I believe that pulls in the same direction as deriding them for choosing to support terrorists, destructive economic policies, etc.

I am on the side of Vance and Trump on this. I hope they do more of it in the most derisive and sarcastic manner.

I am not interested anymore in handwringing about ‘unforced errors’. We are at war with the Left. It may not be a hot war in the traditional sense, but it is a war nonetheless.

And in wars of all kinds, hot and cold, people are hurt, people make mistakes, and people say things that in peacetime are considered cruel or uncouth.

Conservatives better get right in their minds about that, because the Left means to win, and they have been winning for some time.

I believe truth is an absolute defense against anything.
