After consistent out-of-touch and offensive remarks by the GOP, we’re sending Republicans to “Summer School” to teach them valuable lessons for outreach to women. Here are just a few of the more recent “gaffes”….

Equal Pay

Red State Women Director: Texas Women Too ‘Busy’ For Equal Pay Law
Cristman told WFAA that the PAC believes women “want and deserve” equal pay, but doesn’t believe legislation like the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act is the right solution. When asked what would resolve the gender pay gap, Cristman repeatedly said women are “busy.”

Texas GOP top official: Gender pay gap persists because “men are better negotiators”
“Men are better negotiators,” Beth Cubriel remarked on “Capital Tonight,” a Texas political news show. “I would encourage women, instead of pursuing the courts for action, to become better negotiators.”

Mitch McConnell Claims His Blowing ‘Kisses’ Remark Was Not About Equal Pay
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) honored Equal Pay Day — a day that symbolizes the amount of time it takes women to earn what men make in a year — by accusing Democrats and President Obama of a “never-ending political road show” that merely blows “a few kisses” to their voter base.

Carly Fiorina slams Dems’ 'War on Women’ campaign
“So the Paycheck Fairness Act, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act – these are tokens. They’re gestures. They don’t truly help women advance.”

Working Pay

The Republican Fix For Working Families: Put A Crib In Your Home Office
Called “A Fair Shot for Everyone,” one key piece of the Republicans’ package, introduced by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), is the Working Parents Home Office Act, which allows parents to deduct home office costs from their taxes if they have a baby crib in the office. “These are just the kinds of things that could make a difference in people’s lives now,” McConnell said.

Birth Control/Hobby Lobby

Rush Limbaugh: Men who support the contraceptive mandate are “pajama boy types” who just want “sex, sex, sex”

Sean Hannity
Sean Hannity wondered about the liberal “obsession with birth control” on his radio show, and basically told women to just go get condoms. “I was in the drugstore the other day, and guess what? There’s a whole section of birth control. Go buy it!” he said. “You can get a condom in a New York bar for free. As a matter of fact, you can take a handful.”

Hannity All-Male Hobby Lobby Panel

OH Rep. John Becker “This is just a personal view. I’m not a medical doctor”
Rep. John Becker ®, who sponsored the bill, said during the hearing that birth control pills should not be banned under HB 351. But he still wants IUDs, which are long-acting forms of birth control that are inserted in the uterus, to fall under the ban because he considers IUDs to be a form of abortion.

U.S. Senator Agrees With Supreme Court Decision Because Women Use Birth Control ‘Largely For Recreational Behavior’
Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) agreed on Monday that women use birth control to protect themselves from “recreational behavior,” just hours after the Supreme Court ruled that some companies can refuse to provide health insurance coverage that includes contraceptive services. “Yea, that’s right, that’s right,” before claiming that “this administration is using the often coercive power of the federal government to force people into their way of being and their way of existing, their way of believing and thinking and acting.”

Fox Host: Hobby Lobby Decision Sends 'Shrieking’ Feminists Into 'Hysterics’ (VIDEO)
Gutfeld then launched a condescending attack on “feminist bloggers” in particular, accusing them of overblowing the ruling and spreading misinformation about the decision. “No grace involved in this, just shrieking,” he said. “And it’s because for a lot of these women who are activists, screaming is what they majored in. Campuses provide degrees in grievance.” “Women have fought the stigma of fragile, emotional behavior for decades. For being accused of not being able to handle things,” he added. “This hysteria by feminists has set back their cause by decades. They are truly resembling hysterics over a lot of this stuff, and they’re being dishonest to other women.” “It’s gone from 'I am woman, hear me roar,’ to 'I am woman, hear me beg for Plan B,’” co-host Andrea Tantaros chimed in. “Doesn’t it come down to just that conservative women, or women who agree with this court decision, are just stronger women than liberal women? I don’t need a government or a boss or anyone to pay for my birth control.”

Fox News Host: Hillary Clinton Needs Support From ‘Beyoncé Voters’ Who Want Free Birth Control
“She’s acting like Hobby Lobby all of a sudden is telling these women that work for them to wear a burka or something like that,” he said. “But I’m not surprised — this is her bread and butter, how she’ll try to win the White House,” Watters continued, in comments that were first reported by Buzzfeed. “She needs the single ladies vote. I call them ‘the Beyoncé voters’ — the single ladies. Obama won single ladies by 76 percent last time, and made up about a quarter of the electorate. They depend on government because they’re not depending on their husbands. They need contraception, health care, and they love to talk about equal pay.”

Rush Limbaugh’s Thoughts On The Hobby Lobby Case Are As Gross As You’d Imagined
“Which is worse, to go blind from lack of regular eye exams or to get pregnant? And again, pregnancy is something you have to do to cause,” Limbaugh said. “It doesn’t just happen to you while you’re walking down the street except in the case of sexual abuse.” He claimed that women treat pregnancy “like a disease” even though it is the consequence of their actions. “And yet, they wouldn’t have the problem if they didn’t do a certain thing,” he said. “It’s that simple.”

Immigration

Laura Ingraham’s Nativist Rhetoric Too Extreme For Bill O'Reilly
[O’Reilly] said, “I do believe that if you do have mass deportations and, you know, the rental agreement stuff, that the Republican party would become obsolete, that you would ensure Hillary Clinton‘s election in 2016 because the demographics don’t add up.” Ingraham told O’Reilly he’s “adopting the argument of the left,” but O’Reilly insisted that “mass deportations would be draconian” whichever way you spin it. He said the optics of immigrants by the score being forced out of the United States would be terrible, and “if your vision were put in there, Republican party––done.”

The fourth candidate, ex-congressman Tom Tancredo, did not attend. The moderator invited the women to join the stage, saying, “It’s so much more ornamental if the four of you would be on the stage with the four of us.” Theme music from The Dating Game TV show played as the panelists took their seats.
