The party website is now running a video about how “hot” Republican women are compared to “Democrat women.” To the strains of Tom Jones’ “She’s a lady,” the video runs through a series of photos of GOP women in bikinis, evening gowns and, in Sarah Palin’s case, Spandex. Then the Dems: women like Rosie O’Donnell, Janet Reno (pictured), Nancy Pelosi and Madeleine Albright — set to the song, “Who Let The Dogs Out?”

1. It's all about the face value for Goopers.

2. There has got to be a way to get this out to a wider audience

Maybe Pat Kessler could do a "Reality Check" on it.

BTW is someone who is smarter than I am, able to capture the crap off the website so it doesn't disappear?

3. Mn Indy has it

One of the candidates, Andrea Kieffer has asked that it be removed and they did.

4. Melting down and fast

While the GOP in Senate District 56 recently removed from its website a video I highlighted earlier — which compared the relative attractiveness of women in the GOP and Democratic Party — reactions are still coming in, including, most notably, from district Republican House candidate Kathy Lohmer, who’s calling for the resignation of the SD56 webmaster.

5. They've just posted it on the main Yahoo page.

Obviously Yahoo thinks this video is great.

7. I thought the Republicans respected private property rights

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you to learn that they did not have permission to use the song.

:rofl:

10. LOL, good one!

Sure, they respect property and other rights (their own but no one else's). LOL

9. Randy Brown made "worse persons in the world" the other night as well

and Youtube has pulled the video at the request of UMG because of copyright infringement.

11. The video is a disgrace!!!!!!

It does a disservice to women in general. I'm glad that it was removed. Let's see if the idiot who came up with it and the MN GOP apologize for its content.

Sexism degrades all women, not just the ones who were the focus of that vile video.

:thumbsdown:
