37. "oh look, a woman introduced it"

Nov 2012

Instead of taking the time out of a rather good idea to put in an attack on American males, just put the article and your opinion - not some sexist swipe at all the sensible male American politicians in the Democratic party.

Let's not forget this woman:



was a Republican, and would probably be doing her best to kill this bill as "an attack on freedom" or some shit.
