Fox News host Bill OReilly invited two women onto his show to discuss whether a woman could be the leader of the free world, expressing his concern about her gender deficiency.
Neither guest was having it.
Following up on a previous interview with Michele Bachman (R-MN), who stated that she did not feel that America was ready for a woman president, OReilly invited Republican strategist Kate Obenshain and Fox contributor Kirsten Powers on to discuss the issue.
OReilly started with Powers asking if there was some downside to having a woman president, something that may not fit with that office, correct?
Hmmm, Im gonna say say, no, Bill, Powers replied, while Obenshain laughed.

(14,537 posts)fight back on the war on women:
On outreach to female voters, Huckabee called on the Republican activists to push back on the Democratic narrative that Republican policies amount to a war on women, a talking point that Democrats found to be immensely successful in the last election.
Democrats, Huckabee said, see women as helpless and hopeless creatures whose only goal in life is to have a government provide for them birth control medication" because they "cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of the government."

It was Comstocks name that elicited FitzSimmonds online outburst.
Responding to female commenter who voiced support for Comstock and touted the strength of GOP women voters, FitzSimmonds posted I have nothing against Barbara Comstock but, I hate sexist (expletive).
One definition for the word he used is a vulgar term for female genitalia. An image of the comment is posted below.

I mean, at some point it's just an actual parody, no?
Well, let them keep saying what they're saying, I suppose.
