As the Democratic Women’s Caucus took to the microphone on the House floor to offer their arguments for how the bill would benefit women, House Republicans — led by Rep.

House Republicans decided not to let them speak . Whenever one of the lawmakers one come to the microphone, Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) would simply say, over and over again, in response to nothing, " ...

I Didn’t Realize Democrat Women Were Such Hot House Flowers
Pirate's Cove —
I guess this is the point where I have to sound a bit misogynist, but, seriously, for elected Representatives, they sure sound like those 40’s women who are delicate and have to be protected by their men folk. Of course, we are talking about Lefty men folk, so, that makes these Democrat women even more shrinking hollyhocks. Think Progress is having a total meltdown (shocker!)
