Phyllis Schlafly has died. I know what song is playing in your head, and that's not nice.

Courtesy of NBC News:  

Cultural conservative activist and icon Phyllis Schlafly died Monday at her home in St. Louis, according to a spokesman for the Eagle Forum political group she founded. 

She was 92. 

Schlafly rose to prominence and influence among conservative Republicans beginning in the early 1960s through her focus on promoting conservative family values, namely her opposition to feminism and abortion rights.

In fact Schlafly was opposed not only to equal rights for women and their right to choose, she was also against marriage equality and immigration reform.

She believed that a woman's primary role in life was as a wife and mother, and that all other things such as employment, education, and self actualization were secondary.

Essentially Schlafly opposed every human rights advance in the last four decades, and of course she used Christianity and the Bible as her excuse for doing so. 

That might lead one to ask, in this age of enlightenment who could possibly still respect this repellent human being?

Funny you should ask.

Courtesy of the Facebook page for the president of the Wasilla chapter of the self loathing club for women:

She Went Down Swinging! - Phyllis Schlafly. 

May she rest in peace. 

Iconic. Heroic. No one can fill her sensible high heeled shoes. She opened my eyes to the rights and wrongs in worldly government back in my college days as she spoke about the Reagan era and all that Reagan's pro-America efforts were doing for our great country. Many of us owe our political awakening to Phyllis Schlafly. 

Our friend is now in the arms of her Lord, rooting for all of us - and expecting us! - to do the right thing.

- Sarah Palin

Of course Palin was a huge fan, how could she not be?

    The bitch lived her life exactly the opposite of what she denied all other women through her efforts. Moved in the conservative political world with power akin to the males, spent her entire adult life in the public eye making money. Who knows who was the "mother" figure to her offspring but she sure as hell was never home - on the stump for a Congressional seat - lost twice - wrote over two dozen books - latest due out today trumpeting Drumpf - and on and on. Yuuugest barrier to women's rights. Glad she can't cast a vote this fall.

    Phyllis Schlafly on rape:

    "By getting married, the woman has consented to sex, and I don't think you can call it rape."

    "

    Could you clarify some of the statements that you made in Maine last year about martial rape?

    I think that when you get married you have consented to sex. That's what marriage is all about, I don't know if maybe these girls missed sex ed. That doesn't mean the husband can beat you up, we have plenty of laws against assault and battery. If there is any violence or mistreatment that can be dealt with by criminal prosecution, by divorce or in various ways. When it gets down to calling it rape though, it isn't rape, it's a he said-she said where it's just too easy to lie about it.

    Was the way in which your statement was portrayed correct?

    Yes. Feminists, if they get tired of a husband or if they want to fight over child custody, they can make an accusation of marital rape and they want that to be there, available to them.

    So you see this as more of a tool used by people to get out of marriages than as legitimate-

    Yes, I certainly do."

    Sarah wrote this to sway attention away from the write-ups of the 'second anniversary of the Palin family brawl that included drunken behavior by them, physical violence, Bristol peeing on the pavement (caught on camera), Bristol's kid put in the Palin vehicle outside the residence of the party while it was going on, cops called, Anchorage police actually publically reported the brawl to the public and also provided the audio of their crude vocabulary responses to the police questions!

    The Palins are a despicable bunch of white trash and Alaskans have been thoroughly disgusted with the lot of them for years!

      In addition to her evil rantings against PBO and Dems in general, palin also has a 'backwoods' mentality which prevents her from seeing the big picture or relating to others who don't live in such a small bubble as she does.

      Her brand of jingoism and hatred seemed to work in Alaska for a while but even those poor isolated folks finally got the message about who she is and what she is. She is the classic big fish in a very small pond phenom. She couldn't hack it in the lower 48 because she wasn't all that to begin with but she fooled herself into thinking she was due to the red-neck yokel vote she conned for a few years.

      I have to say when Sarah got elected here in Alaska, I was not paying attention that year. I saw someone in the local rag compare her to a Tina Fey look a like. Didn't know who Tina Fey was at that time either. Then in news at the RNC they announced that she was the VP pick. I then started to pay attention. She seemed alright. Then it was like being on a date with Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction. Geez. What a nightmare. I was at the Pioneer Park when she made her quitter speech. Lots a hoopla 'bout nothing. Parnell took over and now we are in a couple billion dollar debt. Wish we had serious people who ran for office, and actually really cared for our states and country. Instead we have interest and agenda based people with a bad moral compass running for offices. The one thing about Sarah and Trump is that no matter how much evil they conjure up in their talk, they have made me care about our country. I realize that we are always going to have to be vigilant of the evil doers or suffer the consequence.

    If Palin loves Phyllis so much, why won't she take her advice and stay home? She never did and her kids are screwed up. With a mother like that, it was probably better she was away. She was not the dutiful little wife Schlafly glorified was she? Stay home now and keep your mouth shut like a wife should and make sure you do whatever your husband wants you to. Maybe you can get into the housewives hall of fame.

    Let's see. Phyllis left her hearth and home seeking fame and fortune so she could tell the rest of us to get back in the kitchen. Phyllis never did see the kitchen, she had "people for that". She never raised her own kids, she had "people for that".

    Yet, she wants the rest of us to do what she herself never did. She wants all but herself to stay out of college and the workforce. Women are to be barefoot and pregnant at all times.

    It is a rare thing for me to be glad someone is dead, but yes, I am glad the old witch is dead. I hope she is enjoying her time in hell.

      I met Shafley in the 70s when she was doing her anti-ERA tour. The ERA was a redundant bill. What was bad about it was that many women at the time were stay at home mothers and many did not have the education nor ability to get into the workforce. Once marriages were/are over, women's quality of lives are reduced significantly. My father loved it because it gave him an opportunity to screw my mom who was a stay-at-home. Hey, we still don't get equal pay.
