Introduction :

There are some pretty outrageous quotes coming from the mouths of Republican politicians --- quotes that demonstrate where they and their platform 'planks' are coming from.

For example, some Republicans have some pretty outlandish ideas on how women's bodies work --- for example, proclaiming that 'the female body has ways to shut that whole thing down' --- meaning that women can make their body refuse to get pregnant from 'rape sperm'.

This helps explain why we see pictures in the newspapers, when a new law on women's issues is passed, showing a group of 'all men' standing around while a Republican governor or president signs another bill championing another 'great plank' of the Republican platform (= Republican agenda).

Other examples of Republican quotes:

  • heartless or deplorable comments in response to mass shootings (in a category such as 'Guns' or 'Crime' or 'Constitution' below)

  • statements that indicate a disgust for the American worker (in a category such as 'Labor' below)

  • statements that indicate a drive to offload tax responsibilities from the rich to the middle class (in category 'Taxes' below)

      Yes ... the rich have a greater tax responsibility, because they have the most possessions to protect from their envisioned enemies. All those defense weapons-and-people and all that spying and wall-building is very expensive ... and homeless people are not going to feel much different whoever is in power. The poor have very little 'skin' in the government/defense game, but the rich have plenty of 'skin' to be protected.

  • statements that indicate support for filling 'private enterprise' prisons with non-violent individuals (in a category such as 'Prisons' or 'Crime')

  • statements supporting the denial of birth-control support for women while providing Viagra (erectile dysfunction) support for men (in category 'Womenz Issues')

Organization of this web page :

A 'Table of Contents' section below lists various subject categories --- such as 'Business' and 'Drugs' and 'Environment' and 'Guns' and 'Taxes' and 'Women Issues'.

Each of the entries in the Table is a link to a quotes section further down this page.

Each of the quotes sections down this page contain a group of quotes along with the name of the person who issued each quote.

With each of the quotes, there may be 'external' links to

  • info on the politician (often a Wikipedia link)
  • web pages that present the quote (word for word)
  • web pages that deal with the issue raised by the quote
  • a web search on keywords such as the politicians name and/or words from the quote

Deez quotes :

Many of these quotes are essentially 'planks' of the Republican platform. These quotes are an embodiment of 'Republican ethics' --- an embodiment of the 'Republican ethos'.

Enough. Here is the 'Table of Contents'.

WOMEN ISSUES quotes

  • "If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to shut that whole thing down."
    --- Former U.S. Rep. Todd Aiken (R-MO).

  • "Women's voices are 'not appropriate or qualified' to participate in the debate over birth control."
    --- U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA).

  • "... women are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control because they cannot control their libido ... without the help of the government ..."
    --- Former presidential candidate Mike Huckabee Mike Huckabee (R-AR)
    ...
    and yet Mr. Huckabee seems to be quite supportive of 'Uncle Sugar' providing a prescription each month for Viagra because men need help with their erectile dysfunction. Apparently men need the help of the government, but women do not have an equal right. There's a cheaper solution, Mike. It's called pornography. And it's all over the internet, for free. A better solution: Save the government a lot of money, Mike. Work to outlaw Viagra-money for men. It's a 'discretionary' expense, Mike, not a right. The U.S. Constitution does not say Viagra-support is an inalienable right. If you run for President again, Mike, is one of your campaign slogans going to be 'A Hard-on In Every House'?
