This is the same GOP chair who demaded a few days ago that the state's Democratic Party chair apologize for comparing Gov. Haley to Eva Braun.

As I've said before, SCGOP chair Chad Connelly is a self-help-seminar sellevangelist trying to get South Carolinians to buy into a multi-level marketing batch of bullshit.
And because the Palmetto State is pig sty packed with Red State swine content to live off the race-baiting slop disguised as the state's Voter ID bill and are content to roll around in the collective shit of 200-plus years of plantation-massa asshatery, a vile bow-to-your-betters philosophy that forces downtrodden whites down on their hands and knees in subservience, a boarish conman like Connelly has managed to find success despite his numerous shortcomings, namely that he's a liar.
Now, Connelly's spinning another like yarn, one that's sure to be slurped up by his fellow GOPers.
In a recently released email blast, Connelly makes the bizarre claim that thanks to Sandra Fluke, the Democratic Party now believes that "abortions and taxpayer-funded birth control are rites of passage for every teenage girl - sort of like the prom or a first car."

(28,856 posts)Those GOPers have no shame.
In fact, many pro-choicers I know are personally
against abortion.
It's pro-CHOICE!

(3,888 posts)i once had a student teacher in my classroom who was a morman. she was a kind, hardworking young woman who wanted to teach history.
in many ways she did a fine job working with students and developing lesson plans. but, when it came time to teach the women's rights movement her upbringing and her church had skewed her understanding of the goals and concerns of the movement.
for her, the woman's rights movement was all about abortion and burning bras.
even high school students knew she was not providing them with an objective presentation of the facts.
she got a job in southern idaho where i believe she is doing fine. probably passing on her vast knowledge about women in america to her students.
