Phyllis Schlafly Will Vote For Santorum

The Santorum campaign blasted out the news this evening that conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly will be voting for Rick Santorum. Schlafly came to prominence as an anti-feminist in the 1970s and succesfully fought ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. She announced her support for Santorum with a message to supporters of her organization, the Eagle Forum:

This is just a quick note to my Missouri friends to let you know that I'm planning to vote for Rick Santorum in the non-binding presidential preference primary on Tuesday, February 7.


Faithfully,

Phyllis Schlafly

1. I call her Lady Schlafly

[JoePhilly]

2. That's what the ghost of Ronald Reagan told her to do.

3. Not a surprise!!!

[tularetom]

4. Isn't she like 110 years old?

She probably shouldn't plan too heavily on doing something as much as four days away.

5. Who knew? I thought that sort of sex was banned by her religion. Now she endorses it's aftermath?

14. Jesus told me it had remarkable restorative properties...

Now, being an atheist, I don't always take Mr. O'Nazareth at face value, despite his evident sincerity. For instance, He loses me on his "blind faith" riff, even though I think He's basically on track on things like humility and forgiveness. But I'm allowed to do that, because I don't worship Him as God.

If I interpreted His gestures correctly, it's supposed to be applied topically, particularly under the nose.

If Phyllis is endorsing this product, I would guess He told her the same thing. It was probably less exasperating for Him than once again going over the things He said that she's getting wrong. A lot less time, too.

I look forward to Phyllis' demonstrations of this Divine DermaCreme in the inevitable infomercials.

6. Phyllis Schlafly Shall Vote For Santorum

Santorum's got a way with the ladies, don't he?

[saras]

7. Surely the substance and not the person. It must be a mistake.

[Zoeisright]

8. Some man needs to tell her to STFU and go back to the kitchen.

I would LOVE to see her sunken old face change when a man tells her to do what she's been telling women to do for decades. Who the fuck does she think she is, anyway? Doing the exact opposite of what she tells other to do.

In other words, the classic repuke.

9. Why is she voting at all?

If it wasn't for feminism she wouldn't have the right to vote, so shouldn't she refuse to vote? Come to think of it, what is she doing leading a national organization, shouldn't she be at home cooking and cleaning? Such a hypocrite. Though, to be frankly honest, I doubt her endorsement counts for very much. Pegasus said it best "blah" indeed.

10. I thought she had died.

How old is she, anyway?

[Tabasco_Dave]

11. She is 87

Funny thing is, she looked 87 in 1987.

[Warren DeMontague]
