GOP Strategists Fear Gender Gap Could Grow

National Journal: "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."

Re: >>"Almost a full year ago, four duty-bound Americans were murdered by known terrorists. Their government left them defenseless for hours until they could no longer fight off the barbarians, even though there were forces available to come to their aid."<<

Why don't you listen carefully to what General Jack Keane (no friend of the Obama Administration) had to say about what really happened in Benghazi that night. You might learn something factual outside of your fantasy world.
