That thing that does get under my skin so damn much with this election is not the whole "eew the republican party stinks," or "this guy they picked isn't 'conservative' enough for me, so I'm going to pout," no, those are minor complaints by people who have the grave misconception that every candidate should be perfect... what pisses me off to no end is these whiny, tunnel vision, short sighted liberal pieces of you-know-what that make the entire election about one centerpiece issue that shouldn't even be a centerpiece issue: women's rights. Yes, Romney is really going to come in and undo 100 years of women's rights progress in one term... If you honestly believe that I know of some beach front property just outside Omaha, NE with awesome ocean views that is real cheap!
To tie the entirety of women's rights to one sub-issue is the real problem here. Claiming that taking away a women's ability to get an abortion will somehow remove her right to vote and put her back in the kitchen, pregnant popping out kids while "the men discuss men's business" is a moronic notion. The ideals behind modern women's rights is a bastardization of what women like Alice Paul and Rosa Parks fought for. It's no longer about equality, its all about revenge. The intro to women's history class that I'm taking completely confirms that for me. The chip on their shoulders is mountain-esque. I'll never get behind it.
