    Strange since in the growing list of threads attacking Davis the righties bring her up all the time to excuse their behavior towards Davis. I know you don't like people pointing out the hypocracy and false outrage of the right but you cannot play the victim for me doing so. Davis scares the heck out you righties, get used to it.

    It never ceases to amaze how low the left will scrape to defend their own.

    A woman is accused of abusing campaign funds and to the left, she's "helping the local economy".

    Folks, I cannot make this stuff up. :roflol: :roflol: :roflol: :roflol: :roflol: :roflol:

    Davis has become the left's version of Palin. The only difference being that Palin is nowhere near as despicable as Davis is. The left even tried to use Palin's conscious decision not to abort her unborn son against her, even after admitting to the world that the thought had occurred to her for a moment after Palin discovered that he was going to be born with Down's Syndrome, but decided to give birth to him anyway in order to give him a chance at life. Something that Wendy Davis stood up against for 11 hours in her pretty pink sneakers; she would rather have the wholesale slaughter of unborn babies instead of giving them a chance to live.

    Ah but it's not her money. It's campaign money. There are laws regarding what she can do with it.

    Did you forget about her $150,000 wardrobe? Psst, you have ZERO control over what I post or do not, feel better informed.

    Soooooo, you disliked what was done to Palin but have zero problem doing it yourself to others. Ahhhh, that old double standard.

    She's a fraud. But she's a baby killing Dem fraud and that makes her a HERO!

    There doesn't seem to be a level of lying that's a disqualifier for the useful idiots.

    No I got the point. People at Breitbart attacking Davis over this because she has talked about being a single Mom and such. Frankly I don't see a problem with this kind of expense, wouldn't matter the political party either. This whole whack job story from Breitbart is what I expect from them. This is almost as bad as the far right trying to make a story out Hillary saying she misses driving her own car.

    Well.... seriously, I don't know what you're talking about..... do you?

    IIRC, this is m/b the 3rd thread on Davis and don't recall Palin being brought up and if she was, no point b/c there are no similarities b/t the circumstances b/t those 2 women.... that I can see anyway

    Also, you said that you know I don't like it when people point out the hypocrisy and faux outrage of the right..... alrightie, bubba, you find just one post of mine where I got all riled up b/c this happened. Just ONE.

    Start digging......

    No, Davis doesn't 'scare the heck' out of' ANYONE..... that's only in your dreams......

    What an idiotic article!

    What a LYING headline! This is NOT a "luxury suite"! Even if it was, she deserves it more than most of the usual a--holes! At least she is not trying to pass laws to control MEN's or ANYONE'S bodies!

    As I write this I am sitting in a $1700/month ONE BEDROOM apartment belonging to a friend in Los Angeles, and it is NOT in a nice complex or area (built about 1964). $3000/month is pretty standard rent. That tells us this lying hit piece was written for old ladies in Podunck to fan themselves over. Too bad Republicans do not realize that a LARGE number of those old ladies in Podunck are saying "YOU GO, GIRL!" after getting screwed financially by husbands, jobs, politicians etc.

    In Texas boom areas, that kind of rent is normal for a standard place for a moderately successful attorney! GEEZ!

    And "suckers" or not, her contributors are voluntarily writing the checks, so what is your sudden problem with a practice we can be sure 90% of her fellow MALE lawmakers do as well, regardless of their pasts? She is not claiming to be a trailer park mom NOW!

    Disgusting!

    I can't count the number of men I have known and read about that was supported by a woman until he got his degrees or Doctorate or legal admission and then dumped her for a fresh young model, but those guys are praised and revered by Republicans everywhere.

    Further, how many on the Right had a genetic sugar daddies and mommies who gave them a golden spoon through top schools and colleges and then plenty of connections and money for their own businesses, often they flop many until they finally manage to avoid disaster. Bush, Gingrich, Mccain so many have been praised as top picks by Republicans yet have had their sugar mommies and daddies right at hand!

    The fact that this kind of criticism is put forward by the Republicans and the Right demonstrates like nothing else the ultimate sexism and hypocrisy and misogyny embedded deep in the Republican Party, through and through.

    .....

    1) Who are you to judge what motivations a woman you don't even know may or may not have? Are you a woman? It would seem to me that Davis's husband willingly contributed to her further education in exchange for wifely services rendered in a marriage. Divorce is always a private matter and it is very flamebaiting/trolling of you to infer anything else

    2) I find it so funny that you would think BitterPill is defensive at all...you are the one throwing the flamebait and trolling like mad; BitterPill is only answering your insults.

    I suggest that you take a minute and read the rules, have a moderator explain them for you, and you will then know your limitations on the forum. Either that or go ahead and work up your points to get permanently banned. It's entirely up to you. Be careful though, your next moderator may be a Democrat.....:smile:.

    Oh, you mean the wardrobe that the GOP paid for: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/27320899/ns/politics-decision_08/t/gop-spends-palins-wardrobe/

    The wardrobe that Sarah Palin returned after the GOP was done with them?

    No, you don't make a ridiculous claim, and then demand that I prove it for you. Not on my watch, woman.

    What am I "doing to others" aside from exposing the truth? Wendy Davis dug her own hole, and now she has to climb her own way out of it. I hope you are finally realizing that Wendy Davis will not be the governor of Texas because of her lying about her rags-to-riches story, her divorcing her sugar daddy husband only after he paid off her student loans, leaving her children like the deadbeat that she is, and advocating for the wholesale slaughter of unborn babies.

    She had a hard enough time running for governor as a woman in Texas; do you honestly believe that Texans will want a woman with that much deadbeat baggage running the state from the governor's chair? I highly doubt it.

    Hate to admit it, but if she were running against Slick Rick, I'd probably still vote for her. But the more I learn about her, the less I like her. Abbot's looking pretty good by comparison.

    Clue, those that support her have not changed their mind one bit, and that is their choice, the rightie attacks are not working and never will. She will not win this time because the GOP has a ton more money, for now. The thing is she does scare you and your ilk because she is a rising star and Texas is starting to swing back to it's natural state and that is not Republican and if you lose Texas you win never win the Whitehouse again.

    Well I don't want to infer anything so please let me just flat out state it:

    She married this rich guy, she took his money, then after she graduated she dropped him like a sack of potatoes. That's the left wing strategy for women to work their way through college apparently.

    Examples, please?
