Republicans History on Women's Rights and How Times Have Changed
I have been wondering why the Republican party and the Republican Tea Party have been attacking women since they gained control in November. I felt compelled to do some research and I found these articles that help piece this puzzle together. This is very sad and if this is what candidates campaigned on and people voted for them then we are in for a world of hurt. The first article explains the history of the Republicans stand on women's rights and the others show where they stand today.

There are many articles on this subject and the media needs to be thoroughly investigating and reporting on this. Rachel Maddow did a brilliant job highlighting this last night on here show, here is the clip: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/ns/msnbc_tv-rachel_maddow_show/#43055025. The segment is called: A man cave moment for Mitch Daniels. This is a good start, but much more needs to be done to protect women's rights including health care.
