Who Democrats REALLY Are
With the selection of Sarah Palin as Republican vice president, the Democrat Party is showing that it is the party of hatred and resistance to change. When it comes to advancing women's rights, Republicans have ALWAYS been first.
February 9, 1864
Republicans Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton deliver over 100,000 signatures to U.S. Senate supporting Republicans’ plans for constitutional amendment to ban slavery
December 10, 1869
Republican Gov. John Campbell of Wyoming Territory signs FIRST-in-nation law granting women right to vote and to hold public office
September 6, 1870
Women vote in Wyoming vote in FIRST election after women’s suffrage signed into law
November 18, 1872
Susan B. Anthony arrested for voting, after boasting to Elizabeth Cady Stanton that she voted for “the Republican ticket, straight”
January 10, 1878
U.S. Senator Aaron Sargent (R-CA) introduces Susan B. Anthony amendment for women’s suffrage; Democrat-controlled Senate defeated it 4 times before election of Republican House and Senate guaranteed its approval in 1919. Republicans foil Democratic efforts to keep women in the kitchen, where they belong
June 7, 1892
In a FIRST for a major U.S. political party, two women – Theresa Jenkins and Cora Carleton – attend Republican National Convention in an official capacity, as alternate delegates
February 12, 1909
On 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth, African-American Republicans and women’s suffragists Ida Wells and Mary Terrell co-found the NAACP
August 1, 1916
Republican presidential candidate Charles Evans Hughes, former New York Governor and U.S. Supreme Court Justice, endorses women’s suffrage constitutional amendment; he would become Secretary of State and Chief Justice
May 21, 1919
Republican House passes constitutional amendment granting women the vote with 85% of Republicans in favor, but only 54% of Democrats; in Senate, 80% of Republicans would vote yes, but almost half of Democrats no
August 18, 1920
Republican-authored 19th Amendment, giving women the vote, becomes part of Constitution; 26 of the 36 states to ratify had Republican-controlled legislatures
You've all heard that worn out fairy tale about Republicans and Democrats switching sides in the 1960s. Then why do Democrats still excoriate blacks and women who DARE think for themselves? Why do they call Condoleezza Rice, Bush's brown sugar and a house slave? And why the vicious attacks on every level against Sarah Palin?
The most incredible thing about the resistance to Sarah Palin is that Democrat women have bought into it. They are perfectly willing to keep their own sex down and wait and wait and wait for their men to finally get around to doing what -- once again -- the Republicans are on the verge of doing first. How twisted is that? These aren't feminists, these are brain-washed tools of the Democrat Party.
Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Theresa Jenkins, Cora Carleton, Ida Wells and Mary Terrell would be disgusted and horrified at how the liberal women of today have diminished and trashed their legacies.
Oh where, oh where have the feminists gone?
Oh where oh where can they be?
With their tails firmly tucked between their legs,
They run from misogyny.

Let's hope you can soon add Gov. Sarah Palin, R-Alaska, to that list of trailbreaking women...
I don't want her to cry but I want to cry waking up this morning. I can't believe what I am seeing...the US weekly cover. I saw Michelle Malkin has a link to protest the cover.
This is beyond scum and I thought lawyers were the worst. Look at CNN too...Kyra Phillips, Campbell Brown and that other one on this morning are the meanest. I guess they had a meeting and told the women anchors to sock it to her and let the men stand back. It is disgusting.
They cannot get over that she is PRO LIFE!
How can this woman get through this? This seems worse than Dan Quayle but the same as Clarence Thomas.
Makes me really wonder if this country is worth saving sometimes.
I am embarrassed to be an American today. I am embarrassed I have ever bought a Tabloid magazine like US weekly.
Now I know why celebrities hate them so much too.
Now we know what Democrats felt like when Lincoln was elected. We are living during historical times. For me, it's a proud moment.
