McConnell fundraiser: Wives have 'obligation' to sleep with husbands Read more: http://thehill.com/

[Mass]

War on women? What war on women?

It is probably what McConnell will ask himself. Because clearly he has no problems with this,

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/201102-mcconnell-fundraiser-co-host-wives-have-obligation-to-sleep-with-husbands

A conservative talk-radio host who has argued wives “ought to consent to at least some form of sexual relations as much as possible,” regardless of their “mood,” will co-host a Wednesday fundraiser for Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

....


Writing on TownHall.com in December of 2008, Prager compares a man’s obligation to go to work, regardless of his “mood,” to a woman’s obligation to have sex with her husband.
...
He says that, because of that belief, “the decade or more during which women have the best chance to attract men is spent being preoccupied with developing a career.”

...

Nice dinosaur. Probably a perfect pair with the turtle man.

[Thinkingabout]

1. Perhaps McConnell does not realize women are a larger portion of the population and we are citizens,

not at the will of men who are a smaller number of the population.

[ladywnch]

14. "........and we are citizens..."

so far.


give them time, they'll will declare us property.

[demigoddess]

35. + 1

been thinking this for years.

[NYtoBush-Drop Dead]

48. he also probably doesn't realize..

that we VOTE!

[MFM008]

2. thats because Mr. McConnell

there would have to be a law to make someone sleep with you.

[2pooped2pop]

3. exactly my thought! n/t

[3catwoman3]

4. A law would be insufficient inducement...

... to make me want to be anywhere near McConnell, let alone close enough for THAT! I'd probably end up in the clink

[roguevalley]

25. Obviously GOP men can't get laid. Amazing.

[Arugula Latte]

43. Please don't make me think about "sex" and "Mitch McConnell" at the same time.

[Egnever]

5. Much as I think Mitch is a toad

guilt by association is a lame game.

[Mass]

7. I blame him for chosing this idiot to host his fundraiser.

[Egnever]

10. not really

you attributed the idiots statements to Mitch. I wouldn't personally be surprised to hear Mitch say it but he didn't this other moron did.

Just saying it isn't right to hold people responsible for what others say.

[Mass]

13. I posted the Hill's article. complain to them, but first note they say it is his fundraiser.

[Bandit]

9. I believe you can tell a lot about a person by whom they associate with.

I will use that belief to my own advantage.

[Egnever]

12. I dont disagree with that entirely but

I doubt those two spend a lot of time together.

How did you feel about the whole Reverend Wright thing?

[Bandit]

15. I have nothing bad to say about Reverend Wright.

I happen to agree with him and his view about America. In fact I was sort of upset Obama threw him under the bus. I can understand (sort of) why he did it but I disagreed with him doing so. America is certainly not a perfect country no matter how much the GOP would like that to be. In fact I believe they are one of the main obstacles in that regard.

[Egnever]

16. I dont have anything bad to say about him either

But the Idea that Obama should be held responsible for the words that Reverend wright said is the same thing IMHO. Only in Obamas case I expect he spent way more time with Reverend Wright than no neck spent with this other tool.

In both cases I think its a garbage way to try to tear someone down.

Having said that I am no fan of Mitches so this will be the last time I comment on this.

[leftynyc]

34. Then let Mitch throw this clown under

the bus the same way Pres Obama had to disavow Rev Wright. I'm tired of being held to a different standard and using different rules for each party.

[stg81]

45. Bill Ayers, anyone? Throw guilt by association back in GOP's faces

[Sheldon Cooper]

6. Nowadays, women also have to go to work regardless of their "mood".

So, when she drags her ass home after a ten-hour day, and gets the meal on the table, gets the kids fed, homeworked, bathed, and put to bed, throws a load of clothes in the washer and does the dishes, and THEN she also has to put out for the husband?

Yeah, right.

[BrotherIvan]

22. ^^This!^^

This asshole couldn't do half the work most women do in a day. Just puke. I figure all those who complain that women won't freely satisfy their needs are particularly lonely and that makes me smile just a little. Fuck them in the figurative sense, not the literal.

[Stargazer09]

27. Exactly!

Stupid, ignorant men make me sick.

[treestar]

8. OH, and what decade are men having the best change to attract women?

Asshole.

[Kelvin Mace]

11. I don't get the vibe

that Mitch pesters any women for sex.

[Brigid]

18. Because he gave that up as a bad job years ago.

[tarheelsunc]

17. Apparently Mitch McConnell doesn't have a problem with this... what about Elaine Chao? eom

[Brigid]

19. I am luckier than I realized, apparently.

I learned when I was a teenager that kids were never in the cards for me. That meant I never had a ticking biological clock pressuring me to marry, and I just never did. That means I never had to risk ending up with someone like the Turtle Man. Sometimes you really do catch a break in life.

[mythology]

20. Interesting logic

A man has to do his job no matter his mood. So when the wife has to have sex no matter her mood, doesn't that make her a prostitute?

[LittleGirl]

32. no that means

she has to submit to rape by husband. That's what it says to me.

hopefully, there wont be flame thrown at me for saying that.

[Le Taz Hot]

56. No flame.

When a a man has sex with a woman against her will that's called rape. The end.

[LittleGirl]

58. thank you. eom

[JI7]

21. i just saw that he has been married 3 times

i remember listening to his crap some years back and at that time he was married to his 2nd wife. he was always saying things about how women need to focus on appearance to keep their husband and other sexist shit.

but i see now he has divorced his wife from then and married someone else.

he looks and sounds like a fucking douchebag also.

[shenmue]

23. I just read the article at the link

And now I want to poke myself in the eye.

I want back those five minutes of my life.

[Blue Owl]

24. Was he fondling his gun again?

[Stargazer09]

26. Umm...

I really wish conservatives would stay out of other people's bedrooms.

Honestly, their obsession with sex is quite unhealthy.

[LittleGirl]

33. What is it with them?

they are constantly thinking about who's doing who. ugh.

[olegramps]

28. A man's work is from sun to sun, a woman's is never done.

[DallasNE]

29. What, You Mean The Wife Is Not A Sex Slave

And the property of the husband? He probably doesn't think she should have the right to vote either.

[peace13]

30. I guess that explains how those guys get any sex at all!

Too funny yet disgusting!

[geardaddy]

31. Prager is a creep

Of course he wants women to "submit to his needs" whether they're in the mood or not. Just look at him.

[yellowcanine]

37. Yep. I can't wait until Rachel gets a hold on this.

[Le Taz Hot]

57. The 70's called.

They want their leisure suit back.

[yellowcanine]

36. Prager: "...most women without a man do worse in life than fish without bicycles.” ????

That doesn't even make any sense. Fish don't need bicycles so it follows that women don't need men.

Logic doesn't appear to be a strength of Mr. Prager

[geardaddy]

41. The original is attributed to Gloria Steinem

"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle."
I think he was trying to be cute by referencing the quote, but he mangled it.

[yellowcanine]

60. Okay that makes sense. So Prager used a quote which undermined his premise.

Dumbass.

[mntleo2]

38. Guess this idiot doesn't realize ...

...women also work for a wage "regardless of mood" too. Add to it the other unpaid work she does that men do not do, which loses her over $400,000 of paid work over a work life time according to labor studieas quoted in Think Progress and the AARP. What a freaking selfish dolt!

Talk about getting a headache and "losing the mood"! GRRR!

Cat in Seattle

[wilt the stilt]

39. men have an obligation to get a boner

without Viagra any time she is in the mood. What say you Mitch.

[DesertDiamond]

40. What they're really trying to tell us is that their wives aren't giving them any...

and they don't want to have to bother to find out why.

[geardaddy]

42. Bingo.

[KansDem]

44. Maybe it's just me, but...

...I can't imagine having sex with someone who doesn't find it as exciting, pleasurable, satisfying, (etc.) then I would.

To me, a woman who submits out of obligation would be a total turn-off, but perhaps, that's just me?

[Chemisse]

46. So does this mean men are obligated to 'perform' when they are tired as well?

Perhaps these Republican men don't know it, but women like to have sex too.

[MadrasT]

47. As if women giveafuck what he thinks.

I find it amusing that he thinks his quaint little opinion matters.

[classof56]

49. Just curious...when Prager says "some form of sexual relations", what's he advocating?

Didn't read the article, so maybe he goes into all the details there, but right now my imagination is running wild and I'm feelin' kinda sick.

[Demeter]

50. Sauce for the gander...

One of the reasons I divorced was that hubby couldn't be bothered to even live in the same state, let alone sleep in the same bed....

[blkmusclmachine]

51. GOP dinosaur. Soon, the GOP will be demanding that women wear burkas in public.

[Liberal_in_LA]

52. that's Prager for you.

[blackspade]

53. What an asshole.

Both of them...

[DeSwiss]

54. What? He forgot about the making of the sammiches???

- What kind of conservative bible-thumping prick are you!?!?! Seriously though, it's like shooting fish in a barrel with these guys. Just ain't no fun no more......

K&R


Here, watch this instead:

[ReRe]

55. Not anymore, Mitch...

... this is 2014, not 1954.

[FSogol]

59. LOL, McConnell's statement says more about his life than anyone elses.

I'm guessing Mrs. McConnell doesn't buy his arguments.
