GOP Group Courts Women At Convention With Hair And Makeup Touch Ups
By Annie-Rose Strasser on Aug 27, 2012 at 2:05 pm
In case the female Republicans in Tampa for the GOP convention arent feeling quite glamorous enough to listen to policy platforms, conservative group YG Network has created a pop-up salon near the convention hall that promises to help them woman up.
While the men of the GOP gear up to talk policy, debate the merits of their platform, and listen to speeches about the Republican vision for America, the women can stop by Young Guns Networks Woman Up Pavillion for hair and makeup touch ups while cable news plays in the background. From the looks of it, the salon hasnt caught on yet:
The pavillion was created in honor of Dr. Miriam Adelson, wife of billionaire Sheldon Adelson, to thank her for her huge contribution to the group.
Asked whether YG Network had a male equivalent to the Woman Up salon, Brad Dayspring, former spokesperson to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and current senior advisor at YG Network, responded, Real men know how to Woman Up! The group has a t-shirt pushing the same message:
Starting tomorrow, the YG Network will also host public policy panels at the Woman Up Pavillion.

Not what's on the outside.

(8,153 posts)3. IF you were one of those women
I'd tell you to your face.
I'd say "You have hate inside you."
I'd say "You have no empathy inside you."
I'd say "You have no compassion inside you."
I'd say "You have many things inside you that are simply wrong."
But you're not one of "those women" and, hey, I'm not that bold.

Rather, it's so the males of the repig species can have booty calls at the various whorehouses that are doing boffo business this week in Tampa.
The hookers are probably coordinating times with the salon to prevent discovery of the philandering, too.
