War on Women? 'Think About That For a Moment'

Weekly Standard  "Michigan Senate candidate Terri Lynn Land has a new 30-second ad out taking on the Democratic line that Republicans like her are waging a "war on women." Land is facing Democratic congressman Gary Peters in November, and Peters has criticized Land's opposition to the so-called Paycheck Fairness Act.

" 'Congressman Gary Peters and his buddies want you to believe I'm waging a war on women," Land says in the ad. "Really? Think about that for a moment." Land gives the viewer some time. Watch the video below:"
 

 
"The Real Clear Politics poll average shows a tight race for Senate in Michigan. Land and Peters are vying for the seat held by retiring Democrat Carl Levin. Land was a two-term secretary of state, while Peters is a three-term congressman who voted for Obamacare."

PJ Tatler commented on this as well     "This is perfect. I don’t know anything about Land on the issues yet, but based on this ad, I like her and I suspect most viewers will too. She comes off as charming, yet no-nonsense at the same time. Land’s response taps right into how real people actually talk about the absurd, and it leaves the Democrats nowhere to go. Land is set to “Really?” them every time they claim “war on women” or any other ridiculous accusation that Democrats tend to toss out." ...
 
Sally Kohn’s ridiculous ‘war on women’ salvo gloriously shot down  For some reason, Kohn was once on the Bret Baier Special Report all-star panel. In the middle of a discussion having nothing to do with this meme, Kohn dropped the phrase "war on women". The remark was ignored by the others as it should have been and they returned to the topic at hand. I found this to be a low point in the usually excellent panel discussions; it is much better when they have informed commentators instead of political hacks.

 "Because I cannot believe that Israel is stupid enough to sacrifice herself for a world that despises her, I’ve got a different theory...
