CPAC 2013 panelist: “Democrats reduced women to their vaginas” in 2012
66


According to several panelists at the “The Right View…and The REAL issues” panel at CPAC 2013 on Friday, President Obama and his fellow Democrats did a mighty fine job of marginalized the role of women in politics during the most recent election.

“We were reduced to our vaginas [during the 2012 election],” remarked Crystal Wright, the publisher of conservativeblackchick.com. “Democrats reduced women to their vaginas.”

The War on Women was originally one of Obama’s key talking points against Republicans during the 2012 election cycle, with the president claiming that Republicans want to disallow women from having control over their bodies, including access to free birth control.

Moderator Rachel Campos-Duffy, a Hispanic outreach activist and the wife of Wisconsin Representative Sean Duffy, added that the president only seems to care about the fairer sex when it most suits him. “Obama’s attitude toward women… he loves [women] when he needs them, and he kind of throws them under the bus when doesn’t,” she said.

Wright and Campos-Duffy were joined by Young America’s Foundation Vice President Kate Obenshain, Townhall.com news editor and Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich, and Katie Keifer, a political columnist and commentator.

Obenshain noted how hypocritical the White House – which pushes the cause for gender equality in the workplace – is for paying its female employees less than its male ones. One employee, former Chief Economic Advisor Christina Romer, even told The Weekly Standard that she “felt like a piece of meat” while working in the White House.

“I think if you look at the liberal feminist movement, their ideal would be the corporate executive woman who actually chose not to get married and not have children,” Obenshain said. ”In fact, they would call marriage a comfortable concentration camp.”

Maybe some women wouldn’t have voted for the president if they knew that the free birth control provided by Obamacare allows anyone who has a one-night stand to shed themselves of any responsibility if they become pregnant, Kieffer said.

“Oh, [the Democrats] know all y’all care about is birth control,” Wright said. “We need to be empowering women through talking about abstinence to treating ourselves with self-respect. These women need role models and know that they are in control of their bodies.”
