JACKSON, MS (Mississippi News Now) -

A Mississippi state senator has created a firestorm on social media after a post on his Facebook page targeting the Women's March on Washington.

Less than 24 hours after President Donald Trump was sworn into office, more than a million people turned out for women's marches all across the country. According the movement's official website, their mission is to protect women's rights, safety, health and families.

On Sunday, the day after the march, Senator Chris McDaniel posted to his Facebook page calling out the "unhappy liberal women", asking "if they can afford all those piercings, tattoos, body paintings, signs, and plane tickets, then why do they want us to pay for their birth control?"

Plus, there is a poll so you can express yourself. The mobile version has the poll through a link at the very bottom I understand. McDaniel is a Teabagger creep who deserves any sadness he gets.

44% of response was that his comments were NOT offensive. Guess he is wearing out his finger voting for himself.

Andy Hamilton This is the type of post I'd expect from a drunk fraternity chump. Instead it's a sober (I'm assuming) elected official whose job it is to serve many of the very women you chose to stereotype and demean with an ignorant social media post. This isn't about being Republican or Democrat, and certainly not about paying for birth control, this is about taxpayer money in MS paying the salary of a misogynistic Senator.

Whitman Smith What a complete misogynist. Women marched all over the world for women's rights among many other things, and so did a lot of men. I guess all the conservative women are happy because they do what all the conservative men tell them, right? See how ridiculous that sounds? That is how ridiculous you sound. Never known anyone to be so out of touch. Shame on you for continuing to shame women.

Hell hath no fury like that of a woman scorned.

On Monday, Senator McDaniel posted again to his page in response, saying that "no amount of liberal hell raising will change my opinion. Indeed, as I awake this morning, I have never been more committed to the absolute defunding of Planned Parenthood and the immediate wholesale repeal of Obamacare."


The stupid POS makes ACA and PP all about abortions and birth control. What bullshit...he is a stupid as his constituents.
