The GOP have decided on Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers to give the GOP's rebuttal speech after the President's State of the Union Speech. I, like most of you have never heard of this women. An that maybe why the GOP has pushed her into this position. In the silly attempt to get people to talk about her and not what she or the President said in their speeches. Or someone that's expendable since after all....she's just a woman....and we all know how the GOP's views women, right?

This is a person with 'strong' conservative values. Yes, because its well known that conservative Republican/Tea Partiers like women that are strong and force their husbands to be the woman instead, right? Further, this woman has a child with a very serious condition. Kind of like Sarah Palin, whom the GOP once thought would help the GOP ticket back in 2008. But it gets better!
She went to Pensacola Christian College! A 'school' for Christians. I went to the University of West Florida (UWF) just down the street. Anyone on my campus looked down on anyone on that campus. The males were expected to obtain a degree in four years, the women, expected to be married (the degree was an after thought). The school is so strict that its laughable that anyone there picks up on 'critical thinking skills'. For example, those of us at UWF once got hold of their 'demerit' book. If a student acquired 'X' demerits they would be thrown out of school without the ability to transfer course credit to another school. That it only took 14 demerits to kill someone: More than 3 people in a room (a party is a no-no), open window, music louder then a whisper, alcohol, and keeping the door closed (because that would hide the vibrations from the loud music from the RA down the hall, right?).
For the males on this campus, they had to follow all the rules, INCLUDING the walkways. They were color coated: Blue for boys and Pink for girls. A male would gain demerits for walking with a women that was not A ) Directed related by blood or B ) Married to him. He could not talk, hold hands, hug, kiss, or practice BDSM with them. Unlike the guys, the women had all the same restrictions...PLUS....they had to sign a book in their dorm when they wished to leave campus. They had to state who they were going with, where, how long, the nature of travel, and when they will be back. After 10PM, women were not allowed out of their dorms. Both sexes were given a strict dress code for *ALL* times of the day. And they could be spotted a mile away as 'just sticking out in a crowd' by the way they dress.
So 'yes', I ask the serious question of whether this woman can think for herself, or is just a puppet? Since anyone doing a rebuttal to a President's speech already has the odds against them (creating a speech on the fly for example), but against President Obama, whom by nature is effectively a college professor? Who has had weeks if not months, with many helping to craft his speech? What can she possible offer the GOP besides as a sacrifice to the GOP Gods?
What can she possible offer the American People in all honesty? Her party is the on that set the circumstances for the failing of the economy in 2007. Created that huge US Deficit and Debt we all 'enjoy'. Lied to get the nation into a war to find 'WMDs' that didn't exist, and has been hellish against anything the President and Democrats have done to get this nation back on its feet. Not to mention how that party treats all the minority groups in America. Or their view on the poor and middle class.
Not sure if I'll watch the GOP rebuttal speech.
