Your chance to catch the GOP "feminine perspective"

  • 14 Comments
  • by: Jason Salzman

(Um – Promoted by Colorado Pols)

GOP gubernatorial candidates will be debating the issues from a "feminine perspective" May 20 at the conservative Centennial Institute, housed at the conservative Colorado Christian University (CCU), presided over by the conservative former Sen. Bill Armstrong.

Here's a description of the debate topic:

The Women of Centennial Institute, a new group affiliated with CCU's think tank, invite you to a debate on economic growth, education, energy, the environment, safe neighborhoods, drug policy, moral and cultural concerns, and all the other issues from a feminine perspective. All the major party candidates, four Republicans and one Democrat, have been invited. Republicans Mike Kopp, Scott Gessler, and Bob Beauprez have accepted.

Even without Tanc, who's declined to attend, as did Hick, this promises to be well worth the ticket price (free), but you must RSVP. Do so here.

If reporters attend the event, co-sponsored by conservative KNUS 710-AM, here's a cheat sheet.

First, the Centennial Institute is the outfit that sponsors the annual Western Conservative Summit, where I witnessed the conservative minions literally drinking Kool-Aid last year, prior to an anti-immigrant speech by Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.

The women at this year's event (July 18-20) include Michele Bachmann and Laura Ingraham. Sarah Palin and Carly Fiorina are invited. It would be good to know if the debaters would welcome the endorsement these women.

There's always personhood, which would ban abortion, even for rape and incest.

Beauprez: He's gone both ways on personhood (like Rep. Cory Gardner), first endorsing a federal personhood bill, then saying in May he's never supported it at the state level. What happened?

Gessler: His website says he believes life begins at conception. If he's not supportive of personhood, which would give legal rights to all stages of human development from conception on, is he pro-choice?

Kopp: He's fully supportive of personhood and has a legislative history to back it up.

Beyond personhood, how about equal pay for equal work? Do they like Planned Parenthood? Roe v. Wade?

And just out of curiosity, do any of these guys these guys consider themselves feminists?

  1. Are they taking questions from the audience?

    Anyone working on a BINGO card for this event?

    I've come up with a few squares off the top of my head:

     

    Women deserve less pay than men.

    The state owns your vagina / uterus

    Calling someone a racist is intolerant.

    Ditto homophobe.

    Bengazi!

    Christian nation.

    Evolution is aginst women.

    Ditto global warming.

    Nazis!

    ???? is JUST LIKE the Holocaust.

    Single mothers are moochers.

    Companies that get government money aren't.

    Abortion is the real war on women.

    and the free space: FREEDOM!

     

    Any additional squares?

    If they allow audience questions can someone ask when President Obama can expect a thank you note for shielding and protecting our war criminals (Bush, Cheney, Rice, Yoo etc.) from prosecution?

     

      1. Yes, that's a good one.

        How about a (female) Nutpublican crush on Putin?

        Or another crush on Kim Jong-un for what he said about Obama.

         

         

              1. That's a great idea! Get a list together and whenever one of the debaters hits an item, those playing the game in the audience can take a nip off their hip flasks. Just think of how shiny it would be. The only problem is that we'd need an additional flask (at least) after the crazy women (Bachman and Ingram) speak. Maybe we could release a bunch of cats when they start.

                 

                1. "Hip flask"??? . . . .

                  WTF??, this is Colorado, not effin' Kentucky . . . 

                  . . . (and you call yourself a map maker?? — sheesh)

                  1. But if there were enough people there it would be so twinkly! But you're right, hip flasks aren't normal Colorado attire. Perhaps we could get the same effect by wrapping our micro-brews in tin foil.

            1. It's an operation that seems to be about one thing but is designed to have a different outcome than the apparent one. For instance, "they" staged the Sandy Hook shootings in order to get guns banned. It's a conspiracy theroy staple.

  2. Totally off this topic, but I just ran into the most curious thing. The "Both-Ways-Bob" link was blocked by Google. It said there was malware attatched to the site. Anybody else get this? Pols?
