WHO’S REALLY BEHIND THE ‘WAR ON WOMEN?’

First of all, make no mistake about it, there is definitely, my friends, underway in this country a war on women. The only point of contention, I suppose, would be the identity of who it is that’s waging it. The Democrats would like everyone to believe that it’s those mean old Republicans, whose only interest, we’re told, is in establishing some sort of a theocracy. But the facts would seem to indicate something very different entirely. And so it is then that there is now an effort underway that seeks to clarify that point, as Republicans and some conservative groups have now begun waging a of their own war on the "war against women."

And first out of the gate, or nearly so, we have former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina who, just this past June, launched something called the UP Project. In describing why she thought such a thing was even needed, she recently told Breitbart News, "We need to name and shame Democrats who play the 'war on women' game." The UP Project, is essentially a Super PAC, the focus of which will be on reaching women at the grassroots level. The UP Project stands for "Unlocking Potential" and will aim to support and mobilize Republicans by directly taking on the Democrat narrative as it pertains to women's issues.

In an interview with CNN's S.E. Cupp, Ms. Fiorina said her PAC was a direct response to the Democrats campaign strategy. Fiorina said, "And the idea really came to me when I spoke at CPAC [Conservative Political Action Committee] earlier this year. In my speech, I took on the 'war on women' directly, and the response was overwhelming. I heard from so many women saying this is what they needed. It can help deliver their messages and provide resources to get them mobilized." For far too long the Democrats have gone virtually unchallenged in the arena of women’s issues. Ms. Fiorina hopes to end that.

According to Gallup, Barry "Almighty" was able to beat Mitt Romney with female voters in the 2012 election by 56 percent to 44 percent, which just goes to show you just how gullible so many women appear to be. Meanwhile among men, Romney was able to beat Barry by 54 percent to 46 percent. That total 20-point gender gap was said to represent the largest Gallup recorded since it began compiling the vote by major subgroups in 1952. The Democrats have been quite successful over time in getting young women to become increasingly dependent upon government. Many women have seen that as being preferable to growing up.

In Michigan, former Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, is running against Democrat Rep. Gary Peters for the Senate seat left vacant by the retirement of that left wing loon, Carl Levin, Ms. Land chose to address the issue of this ‘war on women’ quite directly. Her first salvo came in an April in the form of a television ad actually mocking the ‘war on women.’ The ad, which is titled "Really,"  was designed to poke fun at Mr. Peters for being arrogant enough to accuse Ms. Land of being anti-woman. "Really? Think about that for a moment. I might know a little bit more about women than Gary Peters," Land quips in the ad.

‘I Am Created Equal’ is yet another organization which aims to frame healthcare and contraception as issues of freedom not as some mythical fundamental right. This election cycle, the group has produced several ads in key Senate campaigns, including a recent radio ad attacking Colorado Democratic Sen. Mark Udall. "I have to ask, Sen. Udall, why do you get your underwear all in a bundle about women and birth control?" ‘I Am Created Equal’ founder, Laura Carno, asks in the ad. "Do you honestly think we need the government to make these choices for us?"

Conservative women also have launched a counter to the liberal PAC Emily's List. Maggie's List says its goal is to promote the candidates "whose policy views and legislative behavior promote fiscal conservatives, less government, more personal responsibility and strong national security." Now while that sounds like a wonderful message, and as much as I would like to think that young women would latch onto it, years of brainwashing will have to be erased in the process. Young women have been told for decades that Uncle Sugar was there to take care of them. And that all they ever need to do, is to ask.

And so, as we have seen in election after election, the Democrats have done a pretty thorough job in both getting women addicted to government and in convincing them that having the government in their life is much better than having to depend on some man. And it’s in that manner that they have created for themselves a very reliable block of voters. So the task at hand, I suppose, becomes one of convincing women, or enough women, that they have been convince into doing, is to willingly give up a substantial portion of their freedom in exchange for endless promises that are never really kept. Sadly, they ever intended to be kept.
