Recently it was reported that Republicans in Congress have been receiving training on how to communicate with female voters and, more importantly, learning what not to do when running against a female opponent.
The Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins was asked about this effort by Newsmax’s Steve Malzberg yesterday and it made us wish that the GOP would bring Perkins in to help them with their talking points because, as he sees it, the entire thing is utterly unnecessary since it is the Democrats who are really waging the “war on women” … through the contraception mandate:
Let me tell you where the war on women is being waged. It is the Democratic Party that is putting an ideological emphasis on, let’s take the contraception mandate that they’re pushing, which is going to cost jobs, going to cost women the ability to provide for their families, it’s going to take away their health care because they’re putting organizations and businesses in a position of having to choose between their religious freedoms, their conscience, and providing healthcare for their workers. Look, who needs to apologize for that are not Republicans, it’s the Democrats, it’s the President that’s pushing this failed policy that’s kicking families off of coverage from health care and potentially ending their jobs. Now, what do Republicans have to apologize for because they’ve been fighting that? I don’t think they have anything to apologize for.
