    I am tempted to post a poll with this piece asking if anyone agrees with Gaetz or if anyone agrees with the summation of the outrage it has engendered as depicted by the option piece above. I fear it would be a four way split between right and left male and female, although I am having a hard time conceiving of even the most radical right wing woman actually agreeing with this.

    Did Gaetz just say the quiet part out loud?

    It appears at first glance that one or more Republican federal politicians have at least one take-away from the titular party head, Mr. Donald Trump. It's that a [Republican] politician can say or do just about anything and not lose a vote among the loyal party followers. The comment quoted in the OP indicates that these loyal followers also include the women as well as the men.

    And so it goes . . .

    Regards, stay safe 'n well 'n remember the Big 5.

    On the flipside, I doubt anyone has ever characterized Gaetz as "overeducated". Instead he seems more like the frat boy who has staked his social presence on being the edgy one.

    Great guy to drink with probably. Not the guy you want making decisions for you.

    More fake outrage and hypocrisy. Wonder where Gaetz got the idea from.
    Calling the first lady a whore and a prostitute comes to mind. Didn't see any leftist outrage over that.
    Or the President is having sex with his daughter.
    Or the thousands of vile accusations the left was (and continue) to spew about Trump and the SCOTUS.

    Another perfect example of the lefts hypocrisy is in the article itself.
    They act outraged by Gaetz insults and want him held accountable while hurling insults themselves.

    You can't make this stuff up

    You're right, you can't. Go ahead and link your posts where you've commented the same thing on those attacking Michelle Obama or Jill Biden.

    Not everyone thinks that abortion is the key to social problems.

    Not everyone believes it is a "right".

    Not everyone can overlook the ending of life on a mass scale.

    Unfortunately, there are plenty of women who agree with him. Those are the ones who were cheerleaders and who think the path to success in life is to look pretty and marry the rich guy, so they can spend the rest of their days shopping to keep looking pretty, so the rich guy doesn't trade them in for the younger model.

    Yes you can! You just proved it can easily be done!
    Matt Gaetz is a scumbag. Period. It seems you support child molesters. Good luck with that.

    Almost seems like a badge of honor for leftist to say they had an abortion. it's like the " I voted" stickers.

    Why would you say that? I don't know anyone, left, right or middle, who have that attitude.
    Honestly, that sounds like you made that up.

    Because it's the reality. I see leftist even pretend they are eating aborted fetuses on tik-tok because they are so brave and stunning.

    I haven't seen that, but really don't wish to!
    Further proof that the extremes, left and right, of the political spectrum are not, thankfully, the norm.
    I suppose the extremists have a purpose, as they are part of the "pull" on the ox cart, but we need to keep it in the middle of the rows............

    Sure I agree, but what I find is both sides extremes have like a magnet pulling affect that pulls moderates towards the edge of extreme more and more each year. Hence the capital being rushed in Jan and all the looting/rioting that took place. The gay agenda like 25 years ago was just about being treated fair and equal. Now it's ballooned, due to the extremes, into 50+ pronouns and loss of jobs for not using them.

    To a Republican it's a woman who was taught to read and allowed to vote :)

    Except that, in this case, the extremist (Gaetz) is in power.

    Gaetz's statement aligns with his illegal sexual involvement with minor females. Insecure men are terrified of educated women.

    This should have led to a forced resignation. The fact it hasn't tells us exactly what his constituents care about.

    Once again, proving the hypocrisy. Those "precious little lives" don't matter once the umbilical cord is cut.
