Female House GOPers Silent On NRCC’s Demand That Pelosi Be Put “In Her Place”


We can’t find a single female House Republican who’s willing to take issue with the National Republican Congressional Committee’s claim that General Stanley McChrystal should put Nancy Pelosi, the first female Speaker of the House, “in her place.”

Our reporter, Amanda Erickson, contacted the offices of all 17 female House Republicans, and not one was willing to condemn the comments.

An aide to Michele Bachmann of Minnesota told us that she “can’t” comment today because she’s “busy.” A spokesperson for Virginia Foxx declined to take issue with the crack, dismissing the whole back and forth over it as a “distraction.”

Spokespeople for Sue Myrick of North Carolina and Jean Schmidt of Ohio both declined to comment. A spokesperson for Mary Fallin, the Republican co-chair of the Congressional Caucus for Women’s Issues, didn’t return emails or calls. Nor did a spokesperson for Senator Susan Collins.

We also asked for comment from a spokesman for former eBay CEO and California GOP gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman. We’ll let you know if he answers. We’ll let you know if anyone answers, dammit!

2. "Go back to the kitchen woman!" say the chauvinist GOPers.
"And put on a bikini for us, while you're at it."

4. They asked Virginia "Phyllis" Foxx" and Michelle "Schlafly" Bachmann?
Wholesale disgraces to human rights aren't going to comment on this. They have daddy issues!


Slip him the tongue! Slip him the tongue!


"He's MINE, bitch!"

6. My thought exactly
These women know their place, and it's not to question the men. I'll bet a dollar to a hole in a doughnut that not one of these women House GOPers utters one peep against the sentiment. And there are only 17 women in the House GOP caucus? Really? I thought the "W" in George W. Bush stood for "women." Remember that puke-a-tronic meme?
