I Built This

Mr. President,

I built this while building a small business and raising a child on my own. And I did it while wearing 5-inch stilettos and looking fine!

#Julia & The Bogus War On Women


There is no “war on women” except from the left.  This is apparent in the latest attempt by the Obama team to prove they support “women’s issues”.  Since when is college tuition, healthcare and the national debt just “women’s issues”?  Thanks to the Obama campaign presenting their The Life of Julia on their website, I feel I have no choice to but to point out once again that these are NOT just women’s issues.  These issues are issues that everyone is concerned about.

Can you name one dad that isn’t concerned about the rise in college tuition?  I can’t!  Every person I talk to, whether married or single, is very concerned about the rising costs associated with sending their child or children off to college.  Let’s face it.  It is ridiculous for the Obama campaign to assume this is a “women’s issue” only.  And that is exactly what they implied with their little slide show about #julia.

Healthcare is NOT, I repeat NOT, just a women’s issue.  Men are just as concerned about their health as we are.  No one WANTS to die.  It boggles my mind how the healthcare debate has turned into a “women’s issue”.  Give me a break!  Healthcare is not just about reproductive issues, as Sandra Fluke would have us to believe, but about maintaining a level of health that allows us to live our lives to the fullest.  I’ll wait for someone to explain how only women are concerned about that.

I also can’t find a single person, male or female, who isn’t concerned about the national debt and how we’re going to pay for all the social programs that Obama wants to implement.  Somehow though, I’m supposed to believe that this is a “women’s issue” only.  Since when?  Do men not apply for Social Security and Medicare when they retire?  Are men not afraid that the hard earned money they’ve paid into Social Security and Medicare won’t be there?  I think they’re just as concerned about it as women.

Julia is a manufactured idea of how grateful women should be to the Obama administration and to liberals everywhere.  Well guess what…women aren’t buying it.  Julia has become fodder for conservatives everywhere.  It is sheer ridiculousness to assume these generic situations would apply in the everyday world.  Mr. and Ms. Liberal, nice try but no dice.  You can take your composite character and put her in the closet with your manufactured “war on women” where they both belong!
