Mike Huckabee: Democrats think women 'cannot control their libido'

[herding cats]

“I think it’s time Republicans no longer accept listening to the Democrats talk about a 'war on women,'" Huckabee said during a speech at the Republican National Committee's winter meeting in Washington. "The fact is the Republicans don’t have a war on women, they have a war for women, to empower them to be something other than victims of their gender.” [...]

Huckabee said Democrats tell women “they are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing them for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of government.”

He also said Republicans are fighting a war to empower women "to be something other than victims of their gender."


Unwanted pregnancy is the fault of the female libido? Last I checked it took both a man and a woman to produce a baby.

1. I think I've heard everything now.

Doesn't this kind of thinking remind us of Salem MA in the 1600s?

[Warpy]

2. And Republicans think men can't.

Huckabee will never see his own male privilege for what it is. He will also preach to women to "submit" to their husbands and we all know what that means.

And since right wing men are rarely ordered to control their libidos, that means there will always be a need for abortion, even on the sainted right. Especially on the sainted right.

3. Dear God, please spare us this stupid man..

[nyquil_man]

4. Republicans think they're white knights,

riding to the rescue of all those who aren't fortunate enough to be Republicans.

If you're female, poor, gay, a minority, et cetera, have no fear! The Republicans are going to empower you by giving more power to themselves!

[meow2u3]

32. Republicans are white knights, all right

The White Knights of the KKK!

[hedgehog]

5. Every time a Republican opens his mouth, an angel

[liberal N proud]

10. LOL!

But true!

[redqueen]

12. LOL

6. Him running for President is going to be comedic gold. Gold, Jerry!

Yes, Huckleberry, do go on about the female sex drive. I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on this matter.

[MattBaggins]

7. Hey Huckabee you fuckface

I BELIEVE WOMEN CAN CONTROL THEIR LIBIDO JUST FINE AND THAT MEANS THE FREEDOM TO HAVE SEX AS THEY WISH YOU FUCKING LITTLE CONTROL FREAK.

[no1uno]

8. Old Huck says.....

I wanna be your Huckleberry as soon as I pop this viagra.

[SidDithers]

9. I suspect women have no problem controlling their libido around Huckabee...nt

11. True that. Female libido is mostly theory, for him.

[Brigid]

33. And we have our thread winner.

[JNelson6563]

13. Yes, they even use sex as a weapon in war!

That's why we always hear stories of soldiers getting raped and stuff. The wiminfolk get around all those men and cannot control themselves!1!

*sigh*

We seem to be regressing.

14. fuck him with a rusty farm tool. that pig shit.

how about the little blue pill I bet you take, you fat asswipe.

[Egnever]

15. ho lee shit

funny in that he says republicans dont have anwar on womem and in the next breathe continues the war on women. You go Mike!

[get the red out]

16. He may be onto something

All a woman needs to do to "control her libido" is to listen to that dumbass for about five minutes.

[3catwoman3]

21. Listening to him for...

... minutes would be cruel and unusual punishment. A 10 second look at his face, without any sound effects, is quite sufficient to quash any libidinous stirrings.

[eShirl]

17. condescending creep

[Johonny]

18. Isn't this just a rewording of the same message they say on racism.

Democrats want people to be victims and it empowers people to stop discrimination, profiling, affirmative action etc...

The problem with that is we tried that for the first 200 yrs of the countries history and it didn't turn out all that great for woman or blacks. Why would any woman be fooled into going back to the 19th century vision of them? They wouldn't and if Mike thinks they will he can enjoy low polling numbers with woman and all other minorities because they aren't stupid.

[hrmjustin]

19. Wow, just wow!

[Bandit]

20. What I can't understand is when women pay for their own insurance, how Republicans

think they are getting something free. Just because it has to be included in the policy doesn't mean it is free.

[RainDog]

22. Mike Huckabee: Go Fuck Yourself

You stupid creationist-believing gas bag.

Women are humans, and as such, have the right to health care and medications, just as men do for medical situations particular to them. But you can't see that, of course, because your religion teaches women to be doormats for jaysus.

You have to be really stupid to think Huckabee is about anything other than controlling women's reproductive capacity based upon his religious beliefs.

I'm optimistic that most women aren't that stupid.

One of the BEST THINGS that could happen for this nation is the rise of education and the drop in religiosity.

[Blue Owl]

23. Just put 'em in a room with Gomer himself

And let the aftermath speak for itself.

[Paladin]

24. Huckabee can't control his monumental stupidity.

"...victims of their gender...." Yeah, I believe that's all I have to hear from this asswipe.

[PennsylvaniaMatt]

25. Furthur proof that Republicans can't control their mouths...

It is getting beyond creepy the extent to which old, white, Republican men talk about female's sex lives and reproductive organs.

And that is coming from a guy!

[madamesilverspurs]

26. The measure of a man...

[no_hypocrisy]

27. And Republicans think they should control Women's libido.

Just like never losing my father during my adolescence.

[liberal_at_heart]

28. why do conservative Christians hate women so much? I just don't get it.

[RockaFowler]

29. I'm sick of this crap

First of all, I pay for my insurance. My insurance never covered my pills before ObamaCare made it that they had to cover it. The government doesn't pay for it. I do. I pay enough per month that they should cover any and all prescriptions I need.

Second, I take BC pills for a reason that has nothing to do with Birth Control. As do many women in this country. Some of us have to regulate our periods. Why?? Because our body cannot do it on its own. So I HAVE to take the pill. I hate it. But it is something I live with on a daily basis.

So, GOP Pricks - Shut the Fuck Up!! You have no idea what it takes to be a woman or what we have to go through. Oh and my libido is just fine Mr Fuckabee. I find your idiocy and lack of intelligence when it comes to Women's Issues laughable. So please, Shut The Fuck Up!!

[yardwork]

30. Victims of their gender? wtf?

[MrScorpio]

31. He's all wrong, of course...
