We are Women-Hear Us Roar!

When Rep. Darrell Issa, the House Oversight Committee Chairman, set up a panel for a Congressional hearing on birth control, there were NO WOMEN included. WHAT? How fair is that? It's not.

Add insult to injury Rep. Issa made this comment as he turned away that only female that would have been heard on the panel:

“As the hearing is not about reproductive rights and contraception but instead about the Administration’s actions as they relate to freedom of religion and conscience, he believes that Ms. Fluke is not an appropriate witness.”

What an outrage. Something that has to do with women, but she was not an appropriate witness.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. No truer words were ever spoken. We (women) are NOT in the Dark Ages. We are liberated. We are equal. We are NOT second-class citizens
