Santorum Backer Suggests Women Use Aspirin Between Their Knees As Birth Control

I'm all for the gNOp women using that asprin BC whenever one of their scumbag males comes sniffing around.

Great Plan Foster...all a women has to do is never get up and move in the real world...cons are soooo in touch with reality...

No foster in your day women were raped and kept their mouths shut about it, in your day you never cared to understand where women were getting their healthcare from, at the hospital or the back alley...

Don't worry about republican women...the majority of them are not far right ideologues as Bachmann and Palin, think more Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins...Conservatives are so alienating the biggest voting block in the nation, American Women , 57% voted Democratic in '08, I foresee 65% and over for President Obama in 2012

They walk among us. There's no sign of mental illness, until they open their mouths. Once heard, just back away slowly, turn, then run like hell. These people no longer need to sell fear, they're scary as hell themselves.

ow incredibly stupid is this guy!?Oh wait, he's backing sanatorium, never mind~

the video clip was just played by Sharpton. The fella was joking. For heavens sake, does every smile or comment have to be played up to be 'the sky is falling'.

More important is the sequence of clips he is showing regarding planned parenthood having over 70% of their facilities in poor black neighborhoods. Sharpton himself is black, and one would think he would be concerned that his nationality is the target.

I saw it live this morning and almost fell out of my chair.

This man was unbelievable I guess he never realized that "In his day" women died in back alleys.

Only if men use clothespins to keep that little hole on the top of their peckers shut.

The fella was joking.

No, he was not joking.

The fella was joking.

Oh, I guess that's ok then. I guess if I ran up to someone with CP and yelled, "What are ya, reTARded??!" that would be ok because, clearly, I was joking.

"backing" santorum? Sure... approach from the REAR!

Back in Friess' day they also burned 'witches' at the stake, thought the world was flat and that earthquakes were their neighbor riding his dinosaur to work. Mr Friess, you and Rick Santorum are true kindred spirits. My God, you haven't evolved yet enough to have achieved the level of 'primitive'.

I think they are still draggin' the knuckles!

Ya know my mother told my oldest sister that birth control was only effective if she used like that..lol

My sister used the pill the way the doctor told her. She graduated from college and married a good guy.....
Had a family and a life...I guess it could work both ways but I think a gal would get a crap holding them between her knees like that..

It seems to me that a rat-trap would work a helluva lot better in the women's panties.

Like I said before, he probably used that line to get laid a lot. After all, the pill only came in the 60's, and this guy is well over 70 years old. Sometimes people with dementia get their memories mixed-up.

I am sure a lot of women believed him, and he has a lot of unkown children and grandchildren.

This man is around my age so what he said was not new to me. But it did cause a jolt and a 'HE DID NOT JUST SAY THAT?'

This was the refrain of by gone years. It is the woman who must keep her knees together at all times unless she is married and then she can never deny the husband his rights to her. Rape! Well that was her fault for being in the wrong place, or at the wrong time, or what she was wearing, or she smelled to good, or ....

At this time, it was the wrong thing to say because women are angry right now with those men who think they have a say or a right to dictate what is our choice and our health. No old, celibate, not of my religion, bachelor with no family is going to dictate to us what is best for us as women.

Beware men, you have awaken the sleeping dragon and she is great in number and will vote this year.

What does "knees together" have to do with anything? There are several fantastic "knees together" sexual positions. I guess when you only do missionary you don't learn these things.

What's really sad is he negated the perfectly legitimate points* he opened with by going off to stupid-land with the aspirin as contraceptive quote.

* That it is RIDICULOUS to suddenly decide SUPPLYING "Free" contraceptives is more important than concentrating on our still hurting economy or legitimate threats to our national security like South of the Border Jihadist camps (for future clowns like U. bin Hidin') !!

Forget about knees. Women practically have to OD on aspirin just to ATTEMPT to get rid of the headache these folks are creating IMO.

I just can't believe stuff like this has leaked into the political discourse. Maybe the GOP needs to hold that aspirin tablet between their lips...uh, on their faces. (s) I'm beginning to wonder if any of these guys have been laid in the last two decades or just exactly what is their major malfunction anyway?

Any word on job creation policies or is it going to be nine more months of how to make babies? Geez

bestquest,

The fella was joking. For heavens sake, does every smile or comment have to be played up to be 'the sky is falling'.

A joke, huh? It was a very poor joke and demonstrates the disdain that GOTP men have for women. The MSNBC host sat in stunned silence after the comment.

More important is the sequence of clips he is showing regarding planned parenthood having over 70% of their facilities in poor black neighborhoods. Sharpton himself is black, and one would think he would be concerned that his nationality is the target.

Do you have even have a rudimentary understanding of PP's purpose is? From their website:

Planned Parenthood believes in the fundamental right of each individual, throughout the world, to manage his or her fertility, regardless of the individual's income, marital status, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, national origin, or residence.

No one's race is being targeted. PP is locating their offices in the areas of greatest need. You should run for Congress. The GOTP is always looking for help in keeping these uppity women in their place.

Pacific Apple is right on target! Women from this guy's era were little more that slaves to their men. They were expected to put up with sexual innuendos from employers, from coworkers and from customers. Pregnancy was not allowed in the work place or in the class rooms, so pregnancy was a form of enslavement.

Just when you think we have come a long way, some dinosaur pukes out a stupid "joke" and sends heads spinning back to a time we thought was GONE.

Keep it up Teapublicans, women will rise up and vote your asses out!!

FR send Pacific Apple!!

I guarantee I could get a girl pregnant with an aspirin between my knees. All it really does is raise the degree of difficulty. Oh wait, the aspirin goes between the woman's legs. Nevermind.

CCArm, Pacific Apple and you are both right on target!!!!!!! I am a retired RN and when I went to nursing school ions ago, one of the things we were "schooled" in was servanthood. What do I mean by that? One of the hospitals we did our clinical rotations in, taught that when a Physician entered the room where we charted, we were to get up and let him have our chair. Also we were given a list with the Drs. names and how they liked their coffee. We were to go and get it and set it by his chair, which he took from me and then go on. I could rant on and on about all the crap that I had to endure over the years because of just instances like this and because women were considered 2nd class citizens. When I had a tubal after the birth of our third child I even had to have my husband sign the permit saying he approved and was in agreement and gave the Physician and hospital doing this permission to proceed. Like I were property or a child. I now have 3 Grand-daughters 2 who are in College and 1 who is a junior in high school. I endured and worked hard so these young women wouldn't have to go through what I and my peers did. I have started a petition to Rep. Issa on www.change.org and ask any and all to go and sign it, asking that women have representation on ALL and ANY panels convened on contraception. It is time we stood and remember those who do this sort of thing and put a stop to it now!

I guess these rich bastards figure they can say whatever they want w/o consequences! He made himself look like a real a-hole!! Remember these guys, ladies, around election time!! They dont give a damn about you!!!

I remember that "joke." It was popular when I was young and was used by those who always blamed women for becoming pregnant, as if there wasn't a second party involved. Of course, it couldn't be partially the fault of men cause if she'd just kept her legs closed, he couldn't have impregnated her.

That archaic thinking is apparently alive and well. Sad, isn't it? Sadder still that he'd be surprised others would be offended. Shows he hasn't grown in anyway in the past half century.

It's also scary because these men want to rule our nation.

I'm all for women using that female condom that shreds the male's penis instead and having that piece of poo show how it works!

Ah, yes, RAPEX. If only a few women would wear it, it would influence a whole lot of men to try the clothespin technique another poster mentioned.

Can you imagine going to the doctor to remove it and having to explain how it got there?

Lynn, (you should be blue too, FR sent)

Yes, I remember my mother having to face the same permission after child #5 (she made dad get clipped instead, lol)

I am 62, and in high school "office education" classes, we were told not to wear red nail polish and make sure we always wore hose so our male bosses would think we were chic but not cheap. Also how to make coffee (this makes me laugh now).

Yes we have come a long way since the days of our grandmothers and we cannot allow back sliding in the least!!!

Thanks for the activism and the link!!

CCArm, Thanks and keep the fight up for all girls and women young and old. IMO if this bunch had their way, they would have us in Burkkas (not sure of the spelling.) But have to stand now!

These guys are giving a splendid resurgence to feminism. So much for the "we're in a post-feminist world" meme.

I'll be post-feminist when I'm living in a post-patriarchy world.

CCArm, Lynn-410457, Loretta Kemsley

You go ladies! you got a lot of Men, Brothers, Fathers and Sons! who are with you.

I was taught from very young! never hit a woman.

Well in a way? thats what the GOP/TPers are doing to you! hitting where it really hurts.

Thank you. Love having the support of guys. It means a lot.
