In reply to the discussion: Virginia Republican Says A Pregnant Woman Is Just A 'Host,' Though 'Some Refer To Them As Mothers' [View all]gordianot
(15,539 posts)34. Mom apple pie and then there are Republican Family values.
I would imagine his host is very proud of him if she is still among the living, or if he has children the host who carried his children or grandchildren serve only a biological function.
If asked he probably endorses the Ten Commandments. I can only contemplate my Republican Fathers reaction if I referred to my Mother as a host. Even though my own values differed from his this cold callous denigration would never have passed my lips.
Although not surprised I wonder if he thought this term in a premeditated manner or if it was a spontaneous thought?
