Oh, wait - was your post supposed to somehow enlighten me or anyone else about something already known? Oops, you failed miserably. Again.

Look, dipshit. It's clear that you're incapable of even the most tenuous grasp of what's happening. That's because your primitive little mind cannot process anything beyond its caveman programming. You're an indoctrinated moron. That's the only accounting for anyone still dumb enough to sign on to the GOP. The true, self-respecting conservatives flew the coop long ago. What's left are the whack jobs and imbeciles. Proud of yourself? :rofl2:

lol.....some idiot blogger is claiming she got banned for using the word vagina........in truth, she pissed off the Speaker of the House for saying "Mr. Speaker, I’m flattered that you’re all so interested in my vagina, but no means no” and he cut off her time......but hey, why would a liberal be concerned with truth when they can make it look so much worse by lying about what happened.....

The opinion of PiMP? The only facts contained therein are the quote from the banned legislator and the the fact that she was banned.

So you think she did or said something else to get herself banned, but can't prove it?

Nothing was misrepresented. You seem to think what she said was a bannable offense. That's why you're being laughed at on this thread. Is it starting to sink in yet?

if she said just the word vagina in a rational discussion I don't think she should have been banned. Something tells me that's not what happened though, especially considering other people with the same viewpoint were allowed to remain. She was probably acting out, speaking out of turn, and being obnoxious.

So link up to some evidence to prove your suspicions, or admit you're speculating.

The whole notion of government wanting to dictate to women what they can and cannot do with their vaginas is what's obnoxious.

What she said, its context and the meltdown reaction of the speaker are right out front. She didn't say anything wrong or obnoxious. It's a spectacle because it's another example of right-wing caveman mentality and the banning was the typical, put-the-broad-in-her-place response.

so you already knew that she was banned from the floor because of the statement that she made, but you posted that she was banned simply for using the word "vagina"........if you already knew, why the misrepresentation?.......

It would be like writing a story with a headline that reads:
"Woman banned for saying Speaker of the House"
Seeing as how it was also part of her comments. :palm:

Michigan GOP Spokesman: Female Reps Threw ‘Temper Tantrums’ Over Abortion Bill

Rep.-Lisa-Brown-e1339794517789.jpg


A surge of outrage swept the internet yesterday over two female Michigan legislators who were banned from the floor of the House for saying the word “vagina” in a debate over the worst abortion laws in the country.

Then, in an effort to clarify, a spokesman for the Michigan GOP Leader of the House only made things worse. In a letter to press, he simultaneously did not deny that the women were banned for saying “vagina” and further accused the two of throwing “temper tantrums.”

The letter reads:

Just to be clear, despite the misinformation being spread by Reps. Brown and Byrum, and Sen. Gretchen Whitmer, there are two representatives not being recognized on the House floor today because of their actions yesterday. It has nothing to do with their gender, their religion or the topic they were discussing. All day today, we have had representatives of both parties, both genders and several different religions passionately debating important issues that will significantly impact the future of Michigan. I would urge you not to become too distracted by temper tantrums designed to score political points.

The term ‘temper tantrum’ is not-so-subtly coded sexist language leveled at women to infantilize them and de-legitimize their points. In an attempt at clarification, the spokesman only reaffirmed that the Michigan House GOP’s position was not only against saying the word ‘vagina,’ but also against letting women talk seriously about political issues.

Where's the war on women? All I see are two foul mouthed legislators with zero tact or consideration for others.
