RedState Hails ‘Femi-Regulars’ for Rick Santorum
RedState, home of CNN’s Erick Erickson, front-paged this masterpiece of wingnuttery on Monday about Rick Santorum which begins, Left-leaning elitist pundits are scratching their heads. After two weeks of liberals trying to convince women that Rick Santorum wants to rip the birth control out of their hands and put them in the kitchen, more and more women are supporting Rick Santorum. “How could this be?” they ask. Answer: We are smarter than you think. If by “women” this blogger means “Republican women not in Arizona ” — and if by “more and more” she means “some” — then yes, this statement is technically correct. But just what is a “Femi-regular” you ask? Let me offer a little primer on American women to the liberal elitist folks who spend too much time in New York and Washington DC and not enough time where Femi-regulars live. “Femi-regulars” is a term I coined during the 2008 election when leftists just couldn’t grasp the appeal of gun-toting Sarah Palin. Palin, I explained, like most women, was a femi-regular, not a femi-nazi (a tag coined by Rush Limbaugh to label rabid, man- hating feminists). It’s never a good sign when you have to explain your neologism. But this blogger isn’t referring to the same Sarah Palin who is one of the most reviled figures in American politics , is she? Because Palin’s “appeal” seems difficult for the entire country to grasp, not just New York liberals. Most women are femi-regulars. They are strong women who are too busy accomplishing important things to worry about the divide and conquer strategies of leftists. They are more interested in voting for principled, honest, strong, America-loving folks who will stand up to evil, advance liberty and let our free enterprise flourish—all things that they see in Rick Santorum. They don’t vote as women; they vote as Americans. Let’s take a look at how “most women” have voted in the last, say, three presidential elections. 2008 Obama 56 percent , McPalin 43 percent 2004 Kerry 51 percent , Bush 48 percent 2000 Gore 54 percent , Bush 43 percent Those Femi-regulars sure love them some Democrats! Anyway, I’m not sure I follow the logic here. Most women are Femi-regulars who vote Democratic. Most Femi-regulars support Rick Santorum. Therefore, most Democratic women support Rick Santorum. Sadly, this is what happens when your only three news sources are Faux News, Rush Limbaugh and Newsmax.
