'SMATTER, BITCH, CAN'T TAKE A COMPLIMENT?
After Wendy Davis' spectacular filibuster in the Texas legislature, Governor Rick Perry heaved some calculated insults at her ("She was the daughter of a single woman, she was a teenage mother herself... It is just unfortunate that she hasn’t learned from her own example that every life must be given a chance to realize its full potential and that every life matters") which Davis took as they were intended. National Review's David French, being a gentleman, rose to defend Rick Perry, in a post called "Governor Perry Appropriately Compliments Wendy Davis; Left Goes Crazy":
Governor Perry’s first statement regarding her life story is a compliment — an appropriate and generous thing to say about a political opponent.
The next remark is, quite simply, the obvious thing to say. In fact, the Governor is more tempered than he needs to be. It’s not just “unfortunate,” it’s tragic that she has taken the remarkable gifts that she’s been given and the remarkable achievements she’s earned and turned them toward the cause of death.
See, lady? These fellers are just saying what a shame it is a smart gal like you became a genocidal maniac.
By the time this conservative outreach to female voters is over, Republican National Headquarters won't even need a ladies' room.
