I note he is particularly interested in keeping women out of higher ed. Don’t need no larnin’ to stay pregnant and cook them menfolk a hot meal, amirite?

Of course, higher education has shifted to being more inclusive of women in recent years… I wonder if him calling for the end of higher ed at this point in history is just a coincidence…

Just another white dude who thinks Leave It To Beaver was a documentary. Sigh.

Roberts specifically called out one activist who testified in favor of protecting abortion rights. He asserted without evidence that the woman’s beliefs were a “product of higher education” and claimed that getting rid of higher education would “save America.” The senator did not immediately respond to a request for further elaboration.
So we can’t be sure he wasn’t talking about grades 6 and up.

I like this bit about how being a mother in the White House gives someone immunity from criticism:
Unfortunately, she continued: “I’m only the third woman and the first mom to ever be the White House press secretary, and yet women attack me relentlessly instead of being proud that we have more women doing those types of jobs.”
You’re correct, Sarah. I would disparage you if I met you.
We women attack her because A) she’s wrong, B) she’s unethical and immoral, and C) she worked for a man whose primary objective is to hurt children.
And she still defends that position.

I guess he thinks ancient Latin somehow isn’t “a foreign language”…?

And English isn’t a conglomerate of every language we’ve come across so far. A Katamari Damacy of a language.
Where do they get these blockheads.

Aye; a bastardization of countless other countries’ languages, because our founding fathers were too lazy to establish a unique one of our own.

English is also a foreign language in the US.
Not many of us know Native American Languages.

The DC-area ABC affiliate owned by (surprise!) Sinclair aired the ad, which also implied that she supported the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia (because Pol Pot called himself a socialist, amirite?!)
