"When the House Judiciary Committee passed a late-term abortion ban in June, Republican leaders scrambled to find a female, media-savvy legislator to bring the legislation to the floor. Their biggest problem: Not a single Republican woman was represented among the committee's 23 Republican members. They eventually settled on Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn, who isn't on the Judiciary Committee."
"The episode underscored a growing problem that is worrying Republicans: Women are badly underrepresented within their party in the Congress. Only eight percent of House Republicans are women, and there are only four female Republican senators. Of the long list of potential 2016 GOP presidential contenders, there's not a single woman."
Just three Republican women in the freshman class of 2012, were sworn into the House alongside 17 female Democratic colleagues. In 2013, there are 78 women in the House of Representatives: 59 are Democrats 19 are Republicans
In 2013, there are 20 women in the US Senate: 16 are Democrats 4 are Republicans

It is interesting how women that are not democrats do not exist in the eyes of democrats. They are dead to them.
Ahhhh...The beauty of democracy...if you aren't part of the majority of a political party, you have no future in America.
IF it weren't for straw man, Cicero would have nothing to post at all!
Look up the GOP demographics. The GOP is the party of Old White Men. Of course there are 'young', 'minority', women also in the Republican party, but they are a dwindling number and just read all the above posts about the GOP war on women to know why. Note: Cissy hates facts, so don't read the following post... it will just make you post yet another Straw Man! Gallup: 2012 election had the largest gender gap in recorded history
Quoted Text
The gender gap in the 2012 presidential election was the largest since Gallup began tracking the metric in 1952, according to data released by the polling firm on Friday. President Obama won women by 12 percentage points, while Mitt Romney won men by 8. That’s a 20-point gender gap, edging out the 1984 election when Ronald Reagan defeated Democrat Walter Mondale in a landslide. Reagan won both men and women in that election, but carried men by 28 points and women by only 10 – a disparity of 18 points.
2012 was the fifth straight election to feature a double-digit gender gap.

And what are you a young black male in his prime, nope you are a over the hill white guy like those in the GOP
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
the politicizing of demographics divides and conquers...and both parties should be ashamed as should the voting public who accept ear tickling and white washing.... this cartoon has a truth all it's own in the background...it's a slap at both parties and a poke at the voters
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
And what are you a young black male in his prime, nope you are a over the hill white guy like those in the GOP
Yes, I'm beyond my prime, and I'm not a minority, but I do have a brain, so I usually vote Democrat!
Women are leaving the GOP in record numbers... and the "GOP War On Women" is the Reason!
