Voting for Obama is like losing virginity?

Posted: Oct 26, 2012

Wow...first it was vote like your lady parts depend on it and now we are losing our virginity when we vote for Obama. Can democratic women think of anything besides their who-ninnies? I find that much more offensive than binders of women. At least those binders helped women get jobs. Losing the V-card by voting for Obama is disturbing to say the least.

If voting for Obama was like losing her virginity....her first time must have a big disappointment!

Straight out of the Gipper's mouth.

Limbaugh says it's insulting to women. OMGROFL at the irony. - I think the ad is cute. nm

The ad IS cute, and I think - it's effective.

As for Rush, he's just being a pompous hypocrite, as usual.

they are not the target for these ads. The target for these ads is a younger, maybe edgier, more socially-conscious crowd.

Now, I am none of those things :D but I also found it effective.

Always nice to respond with name calling. - Very mature by the way

Now can we put on our big boy/girl pants and have an adult conversation?

Hit a nerve - did I?

Turn a-loose of them pearls, Prunelly, it'll be all right

Rudeness does hit a nerve with me. - There is no reason for it.

Sad that some of you can only respond with insults and name calling.

The subject of this thread (offense over an ad) - is supremely mock-worthy, IMO

I save my A game for actual issues. YMMV, it's a free internet

Here's the kind of rudeness - that rankles my nerves

Running roughshod over the debate moderator while telling him or her how to do their jobs and making up new rules as they go along (and the sense of entitlement that displays), treating voters as though they are so stupid they'll swallow any ole lie thrown down without so much as a fact check, the presumption that the can fly by the seat of their pants through the campaign sans specifics and that shape shifting is the new norm, towing the line for racists and mysogynists, government takeover of family reproductive decisions, transvaginal ultrasounds, forced birth....just the tip of the iceberg.

Agree. "Pearl clutchers" actually strikes me as a - nicer way than most to refer to reactionaries.nm

So you think this new ad is a GOOD thing? OMG - what a joke. Of course, so is Obama .nm

This video turned out to be CHARMING. Cute, not disgusting. First time voting - should be for "a great guy." SM

Thanks to the right's advertisement of it for their own purposes, it'll be watched all over the planet now--by people who will make their own decisions.

Conservatives tend to be more easily/strongly disgusted by things that displease them (than moderates and liberals). They tend to be more conventional and offended by even the idea of casual sex. They tend to be more religious and inclined to consider sex outside marriage a sin. Some (only some) might be deeply offended that "a great guy" in this case is black and the girl white.

Whatever comes into play here, I think they misjudged most people's reactions to this one.

Yes, we do have honestly different responses to messages. - It's not all about political opportunism. nm

Which makes my point that those who are - offended were not the target market. nm

And the overblown outrage will backfire on the GOP. - They need the young to be UNENGAGED. nm

That's an excellent point about the way people react. - nm

This ad is getting great comments from most everyone on - backwards typist

[ In Reply To ..]
the sites I visited that have it, but I found two comments that hit the nail on the head on how I feel about it:

As if American women don’t already have enough disrespectful, perverted men in the form of classmates, colleagues, bosses, journalists, musicians, entertainers, film and tv writers and producers, and men we encounter anywhere we go, talking to and about us as if we were the slutty bimbos they wish us to be, we now have to hear it from the President of the United States, as well?

This ad does nothing but degrade women AGAIN. It's totally inappropriate and disgusting. Is sex, or insinuating sex, the only thing that matters these days. Where's your self-respect?

Evidently women's self-esteem has been compromised to the point that they feel using sex is the only way to attract attention to themselves. Go right ahead and keep that mindset and women will be nothing but chattel to be used and abused again. All the fighting for our rights over the past 100 years will be out the window.
____________
I'm going to monitor the two sites and see how many hate messages they get in return. Should be interesting.

Wow! There IS hope. The first comment on the ad that I posted - backwards typist

[ In Reply To ..]
that starts with "as if American women" and ends with "we now have to hear it...."

got 726 LIKES!

Everyone must still be sleeping on the other site. No comments like or bashing yet.

I heard on Mark Simone's NY radio show today that the 4 groups of people who put Obama through to the presidency were (1) African Americans, (2) Hispanic Americans, (3) young people and (4) single women. Those 4 groups of people are also the ones most negatively impacted by this current economy. Isn't that just wonderful? The ones who helped put him in office are the ones reaping the least reward for doing so. What a guy! The most recent unemployment numbers are higher than the natio ...

They say the only two things that are certain in life are death and taxes. President Barack Obama wants to add one more: voting. Obama floated the idea of mandatory voting in the U.S. while speaking to a civic group in Cleveland on Wednesday. Asked about the corrosive influence of money in U.S. elections, Obama digressed into the related topic of voting rights and said the U.S. should be making it easier — not harder— for people to vote. Just ask Australia, where citizens have no ...

They set themselves up to lose earlier this week b/c they knew that man-to-man, without the editing prowess of MSNBC and the networks, that their guy would lose big time....and he did. However, after debate - it's all good. "CNN poll must be way skewed," they said, "with way to many republicans in the poll." Really - that's something CNN has never been guilty of before...why would they start now? Just take the loss, admit your guy is running on nothing and, therefore, had ...

found interesting. They explain a lot about the generally negative view that American liberals have of Israel.... "But on the left, the Israeli-Arab dispute itself has been redefined.

That moral clarity has eroded, partly because of facts on the ground over years of conflict — but ultimately throug ...
