American Women Are More Than Their Vaginas

Apparently according to the Obama campaign it is impossible for women to wrap their brains around the mishandling of the economy and failed foreign affairs of the past four years. According to the Obama campaign the last four failed years are not important because the only topics women care about for the future are those issues that revolve around their vaginas and uteri. Talk about a war on women. Talk about a mountain of disregard and disrespect. This inane supercilious advent of the democrats that women are too self-focused and too self-centered to care about the nation at large is beyond the pale. Insulting doesn’t even begin to describe their latest campaign denouement.

Women need a good economy. Women want to feed their children, clothe their children, house their children as independent and self-sufficient adults. Women are not JULIA who relies on government to ensure her very existence. Women are strong self-realizing human beings that know without a strong economy their children have no future and no American dream. Women do not want the government telling them how to raise their children. Whether it’s the government telling women what their children should eat and drink, to how women choose to feed their newborns or what words people are allowed to use. Women do not need nor want a nanny state overseeing their lives. No, government does not know better than any individual about what the future should hold.

Ironically the original feminist movement railed against the societal predisposition to view women through the lens of their sex organs. The original feminist movement’s purpose was for society to see women first as capable independent human beings. Women were to viewed as persons able and willing to stand on their own two feet if given the proper respect and proper chance.Women demanded the right to decide for themselves about their bodily integrity, not that someone else should pay for it. Women demanded good schools and good employment opportunities. Women demanded independence of thought, action and existence. Women do not need a pat on the head from government as if they are misbegotten ill-prepared children. Women are not lapdogs waiting for a human master to recognize their existence. Women are tired of being infantilized by government and the democratic left. http://usa2mom.wordpress.com/2012/09/27/american-women-are-more-than-their-vaginas/

Today the Obama campaign has come full circle. They see women as dependent upon government largesse for their success, their healthcare and especially their bodily integrity. The democrats have once again turned women into chattel. But this time instead of the husband being your lord and master, it is the government that rules over a women’s world. The left thinks that women are weak of mind and ability, incapable of success without the intervention of “Big Daddy” government. It’s ironic really, that in the end, all the left sees in a woman is her reproductive organs.

American women understand that with economic independence comes bodily integrity, self-realization, independence, freedom of thought and action, along with the American dream. For with economic realization comes the political power to make your dreams come true. American women know what needs to be done to advance themselves and their children. It’s called hard work not government largesse. American women know that what they need is not a nanny-government but freedom to create their own future. American women really do understand that the most important organs in their bodies are their brains and their hearts. American women know that they are more than their vaginas.Apparently according to the Obama campaign it is impossible for women to wrap their... more

Bad News: Liberal Women Plan "Sex Strike" to Protest Nonexistent Contraception Ban

The women’s group “Liberal Ladies Who Lunch” is putting together an unusual event, which it is calling “Access Denied: Sex Strike.” The event, which is scheduled to take place between April 28 and May 5, features a poster saying “If our reproductive choices are denied, so are yours.” Younger men and women may not remember the "good old days" when the only reproductive choice we had was to deny men access to sex. In truth, if we lose our hard won rights to medical care, birth control and pregnancy choice, it won't only affect women. Men will have to...go back to the days when they waited for or paid for sex. This is issue impacts all of us. This strike is designed to make that point. Ask your man to speak up for your rights, because when we lose our reproductive choices, so do they.
And to think, it's an unimpeachable article of faith on the Left that conservatives are reactionary. A few points:

(1) One could argue that there is a Constitutional right to access birth control, established under Griswold. But as I've said many times, nobody is seeking to ban or cut off access to contraception. This "strike" was prompted by the dust-up over the administration's very recent unconstitutional mandate, under which the federal government forces all employers -- including most religious employers -- to pay for health plans that must include "free" birth control. Push back against this federal power grab and affront to religious liberty in no way represents a deprivation of women's "rights." This manifesto also makes passing reference to abortion "rights" (extrapolated from "penumbras" or some such nonsense by the Supreme Court in 1973), which is also a red herring. Although pro-lifers are happy to have a debate about the legality and availability of abortion, the current debate has nothing to do with the issue, aside from the fact that the new mandate coerces religious institutions to fund certain abortion-causing drugs.

(2) Do these ladies realize that by suggesting this sex moratorium will require men to "go back to the days when they waited for or paid for sex," they're tacitly endorsing prostitution? Weren't a lot of people ticked off at Rush's inappropriate "joke" about Sandra Fluke being...a prostitute? I'm also unclear on whether certain pockets of women actually want to be called sluts. Liberal columnist Kirsten Powers has written about the "slut walk" movement, in which women "reclaim" the term (however that works), and Hot Air's Tina Korbe just wrote about a (related) "sluts unite" project. What are the rhetorical rules governing the use of this term? Help me out here.

(3) Is the idea that men -- conservative or otherwise -- will abandon their views on anything, let alone a core Constitutional principle, after one week of no sex? Glad to know these ladies hold us in such high esteem.

(4) After a full week of endless, mindless, and baseless "war on women" rhetoric from Democrats, The Weekly Standard's John McCormack highlights the inconvenient truth that President Obama (warmonger in chief on this front) has lost standing among female voters, according to the Washington Post poll we discussed earlier:

Liberals Today: Christophobic and Anti Semitic

A well kept secret? Many young Jews are questioning the wisdom of voting Obama. You won't see it in the msm, but you can see it in the movie that is the subject of this article.

A Jewish themed video about the U.S. presidential race that has “gone viral” has been nearly completely ignored by the mainstream media, which may not be all that surprising.

What is a cause for concern is that the Jewish media has failed to report on it as well.

“Absolutely Uncertain: Obama, Israel & the Nuclear Threat” was published on YouTube on September 26 by RightChange and is just under 19 minutes long. The video can be seen by clicking here. (Note: some of the dress is not in line with halakha).

According to the news website The Blaze, the video generated 650,000 hits in its first three days online. The article can be found by clicking here..

"Absolutely Uncertain”was at nearly two million views by October 7, 2012. Given the press attention Sarah Silverman’s pro-Obama video received in 2008 this is especially alarming. According to YouTube Silverman’s video has only 2,166,148 views as of October 7. Measured another way, Silverman’s video has just over 7,000 Likes and“Absolutely Uncertain” has earned just under 5,000 Likes.

Why isn’t the media, mainstream or Jewish, covering this obviously popular and influential video on Obama's views on Israel?

As The Blaze details “Irina, the 23-year-old “Jewish New Yorker” who narrates much of the documentary, explains that she has always seen American-Israeli relations as a cornerstone of American politics, reaching into both parties.”

Is the reason that the video has been ignored the overwhelming allegiance to the Democratic party that so much of the American Jewish establishment leadership has so aptly exhibited since the days of FDR?

The Jewish Telegraphic Agency / JTA newswire has not reported on “Absolutely Uncertain.” JTA is funded in large part by the Jewish Federation system. Many Jewish community newspapers depend on JTA for their national news and are also funded by Federations. It is worth noting that The Jerusalem Post has an editorial calling the privately-sponsored video a Republican campaign film and explaining that the link to the film was sent to JPost readers as a paid advertisement.

It should be clear from the popularity of “Absolutely Uncertain” that many Jews, especially young, committed Jews, are questioning the wisdom of supporting the Democratic party.

The question remains what future does the Jewish Federation system have in the U.S. if it continues to be so unabashedly one-sided? Can U.S. Jewish leaders afford to alienate even more Jews - and young Jews at that?
