Missouri Senate candidate has some rather antiquated views of women's rights. And yes he's a Republican.

Courtesy of Raw Story:  

In a statement posted to Facebook on Tuesday, (Courtland)Sykes said that he had been asked if he “supports women’s rights.” 

“I want to come home to a home cooked dinner every night at six,” Sykes said, referring to demands he makes of his girlfriend. “One that she fixes and one that I expect one day to have daughters learn to fix after they become traditional homemakers and family wives.” 

According to Sykes, feminists push an agenda that they “made up to suit their own nasty snake-filled heads.” 

The candidate said that he hoped his daughters do not grow up to be “career obsessed banshees who forgo home life and children and the happiness of family to become nail-biting manophobic hell-bent feminist she devils who shriek from the top of a thousand tall buildings they are [SIC] think they could have leaped in a single bound — had men not been ‘suppressing them.’ It’s just nuts.” 

Sykes ended his rant by insisting that he supports women’s rights “but not the kind that has suppressed natural womanhood for five long decades.” 

“But good news,” he concluded. “They’re finished. Ask Hillary.”

And this guy is go up against Claire McCaskill?

She will clean his clock, and then teach him to make his own damn dinner.  

Today's "Oh my God I So Hope This Is True!" story. Update!

According to the National Enquirer:

Women declare war on Rush Limbaugh for calling a young law student a “slut” and a prostitute,” and now his own wife Kathryn is jumping on the bash-Rush bandwagon! 

She’s furious at the 61-year-old con­servative firebrand and threatened to walk out of their marriage if he keeps up his trash talk, say insiders. 

After an outpouring of out­rage from both the left and right, he issued a limp apol­ogy, saying: “I chose the wrong words in my analogy of the situ­ation.” But that didn’t stem the tide of criticism, and his beautiful wife of less than two years was swept up in the controversy, having to endure rebukes from some of her closest friends. 

“Kathryn is fit to be tied,” said a pal. “She feels as if she’s be­ing tarred and feathered with the same brush that people are using on her hus­band. She really let him have it. “She said she’s become a social pariah because of his hot-headed, heedless comments and warned him in no uncertain terms that he’d better keep his trap shut and stop using words like ‘slut’ for any woman!” 

Rush is said to be much more worried about alienating his wife, who says that they rarely fight over politics even though she has her “own opinions.” 

“Rush couldn’t face life without her,” the insider divulged. 

Yes I KNOW it's the National Enquirer, and yes I KNOW they are sometimes not as persnickety about the facts as they should be, but you have to admit that if there were EVER a story that simply HAD to be true, that this would be it.

You tell me ladies, if YOUR husband said anything even remotely as disgusting as the garbage that recently dribbled out this fat bastard's mouth, wouldn't you be reevaluating whether the fancy clothes, big house, and buckets of jewelry were really worth putting up with what could be the single most disgusting human being on earth?

And by the way speaking of prostitution, what do we call a woman who sleeps with a man who she finds physically disgusting, and who embarrasses her  on a daily basis, for his money?

Update: I thought you all might like to hear Rush Limballs essentially begging his advertisers not to abandon him.

First post for this War on Contraception Friday: Rick Santorum's financial backer wiggles his little chauvinist pig tail at Andrea Mitchell. .

Perhaps this idiot is unaware that men also have a responsibility during the sex act, and that if a child is the result they should not have the right to just walk away and pretend it did not happen.

I can tell you right now that if men could get pregnant contraception would be freely available, and there would be NO abortion debate.
