Huckabee, a former governor of Arkansas and 2008 Republican presidential candidate, said on Thursday that it is the Democrats, not Republicans, who are waging a "war on women" by trying to convince women they need the government to "control their libido."

3. They never learn. It's like rape. Just shut the fuck up, pervy assclowns, about

legitimate rape, marital rape, women's libidos...seriously. Or don't, and lose.

4. When have Republicans supported equality of women in the workplace? Please

give examples.

6. They support all the stuff they fought against retroactively. You know... 15, 20 years after it

passed without their votes.

"We Repubbies don't really have limbidos or nothing, you know, so we ain't exactly sexperts or nothing, you know. Oh, we're hip to toe-tapping bathroom stalls and extramarital diaper sex, and shit like that, but when it come down to regular old limbido shit, we are clueless, and Huckster just put his big fat freaking foot in it as usual. So ignore us. We is - smirk - just harmless old HYPEocritical RepubliWankers. Smirk."
