Scott Walker, Cory Gardner and Thom Tillis have a problem with women they need to cover up -- and they know it

When we last checked in on Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, he was playing down his problems with women voters and boasting of his strong support among men. Somebody must have read his poll numbers a little more closely, because on Tuesday Walker came out with an ad that brazenly lies about his stance on abortion.

The guy who signed anti-choice legislation mandating an ultrasound and sharply regulating clinics looked straight into a camera and said he did it “to increase safety and to provide more information for a woman considering her options.” That’s not all. Walker had the audacity to claim, “The bill leaves the final decision to a woman and her doctor.”

But Walker wasn’t alone in trying to cut and run on his women’s rights stands this week. In Tuesday night debates, GOP Senate hopefuls Cory Gardner of Colorado and Thom Tillis of North Carolina, like Walker, shamelessly misrepresented their positions as well.

Gardner, Walker and Tillis tried to model three different approaches to hiding their awful records on women’s rights: the cool, the creepy and the clueless.

Gardner’s been the cool one. You’ll recall he decided he backs over the counter birth control pills, so they’re available for all you swingin’ ladies “round the clock” (though as I’ve observed before, birth control isn’t like Viagra or condoms, and picking up a last minute pack at the 24 hour Walgreens won’t prevent pregnancy.) Gardner did even better at his debate with Sen. Mark Udall, bragging that when television ads claimed he wanted to limit birth control, his wife said, “Didn’t you used to pick up my prescription?” Cool guy, always helping the ladies get it on.

Walker is just plain creepy. In his new ad, the dull-eyed governor looks into the camera and tries to feign concern for women who are seeking abortion. It’s a contrast with the way he glibly dismissed imposing the ultrasound requirement last year, telling reporters, “I don’t have any problem with ultrasound. I think most people think ultrasounds are just fine.”

4. They have lied all their lives to get where they are. They don't see it as lying. They see it as

saying whatever they have to say to get ahead.

It actually angers these sociopaths when you point out that they didn't 'misspoke' or repeat what 'some people believe' or say 'I'm not a doctor but..' and then go on to speak for women regarding what they can legally do with their bodies.

Creationism? Teach the controversy!!!

Global Warming? Hey it's cold outside !!!

Energy Conservation? Drill baby drill !!!


Personally I getting sick of hearing the lies pouring from their cake holes.

3. Women give me hope for next month...

The more women who learn what Repubs are really up to when it comes to their rights and health issues, the better.

If women turn out in force, the Repubs could be toast.
