Ok, here’s the scoop. For those of you who don’t know who Chicks on the Right are, they are two women who think conservatism needs a ‘serious makeover’. They are attempting to show that not all conservatives are ‘stodgy white guys in suits’. Here is an excerpt from their site:
“ When you hear the word “conservative” or “Republican” or the phrase
“right-wing,” what image pops into your mind? If your answer looks
anything like an older white dude with gray hair and a scowl, wearing a
business suit or holding a bible and wielding a firearm, you’re not
alone. Stodgy old white guys have long been associated with the GOP and
conservatives. And it was, in part, this very stereotype that led us to
start Chicks On The Right. We think conservatism needs a big-time
makeover.”….
“We like snark, we like to have fun, and our site reflects that. We don’t claim to be journalists or political experts or economists or anything other than two cool chicks who like to tell people what we think about stuff. In other words, what you’ll read is our opinions on today’s political news, culture, and the media. Except that instead of being served up all newsy and serious, it’ll sound more like you’ve just sat down for cocktails with us, after shopping for shoes. We welcome liberals and conservatives alike to join in the discussion, and encourage lively but civil discourse.”
First, I take offense at that! I DO ‘wield a firearm’ and I DO wear a business suit. The seriousness of what is happening in our nation DOES make me scowl. Sorry, can’t just go shoe shopping and SNARK at people with ‘gleeful’ photos being taken of my crotch! AND, I happen to LIKE stodgy old white guys! My Dad is one of those guys! The CHICKS are SELL OUTS. They hate the white male just like the LIBERALS and ATHEISTS do. Apparently, we need to ‘remake’ our image to NOT include you, fellas!
Hey, I LOVE this stodgy old white conservative male. He’s my DAD! What wrong with THAT? Huh, Chicks?
Sexists! Racists! (Aww, just kiddin’ , ‘ladies’..)
I saw this image of the Bullies (oops, Chicks) on the Right and thought, “That’s how they want to portray conservative women?” I also thought, “Aren’t they kinda OLD to be acting like that?” I thought it was kinda stupid. Kinda…insecure kinda like they think women need to act like teenagers to be noticed. But I have posted their stuff from time to time. They are, after all, conservative women bloggers like me and I like to support conservatives. But then they came out with this new photo today:
“We weren’t selling sex, we’re just playful best friends!”
When I saw it, it turned me off. It just looks… desperate. As a professional woman, I have had to ask myself MANY times: “Just how sexy can I/ should I go?” Every woman has asked herself that question. It is an age old question. ESPECIALLY for older women- the one on the right has WRINKLES, for goodness sake! Now, as a REAL chick on the right, I think these two look too old to wear short shorts and blow bubbles while making stupid faces. I, personally, don’t feel it is.. well… necesary. Our ideas are GOOD ideas and our ideas can stand on their own. We just need to GET THEM OUT because the leftist media refuses to. And yet, they want people to take their conservatism seriously. AND they hope to present a ‘new’ face for conservative women? AND for conservatism in general? no thanks ‘Ladies’.
Here is the comment I posted on that photo when they shared it today. After they read this comment, they wrote an article laughingly called, “How Chicks Tear Each Other Down”. huh? huh? does anyone smell the hypocrisy in the air?
“Come’on Chicks. I really enjoy your commentary- but is this what conservative women need to do to get young readers? Look, either we have a real message or we don’t. But prostituting ourselves for their attention is just sad. Please choose another strategy.”
Well, these two lost their MINDS over that comment. They actually dedicated an entire post to me and invited their ‘snarky’ readers to call me every name in the book. And they did. Nice. Very lady-like. Here’s an excerpt:
“But Susan claimed to enjoy our commentary, so she clearly doesn’t think we are hideous people on the inside (BUT I DO NOW!). She just wanted to tear us down about our physical appearance (LIE). There are women’s fashion magazine covers at the grocery checkout which show more skin than our picture above.
I don’t get it. (AWWW, isn’t that cute- they are so innocent, they don’t ‘get it’). You’d think we were photographed with my tongue in Daisy’s ear and my hand on her boob or something based on some of the comments (can anyone say: yet another attempt at over-aged ‘coolness’?).
Anyway, it just makes me sad that based on a gleeful photo (Gleeful. They don’t ‘get it’ that this is a sexy kitten picture- and they want us to believe they’re smart?), a conservative woman would accuse us of prostituting ourselves. That’s pure meanness right there, you guys. Nothing more, nothing less.” Awww, they are VICTIMS of my MEANNESS….
Take us SERIOUSLY! You’re so mean to say we’re trying to use sex to make money…..
Now, who buys that innocence? And just because more skin is shown ANYWHERE doesn’t mean that two women hoping to change the ‘face’ of us ‘stodgy’ conservative women need have a photographer photograph them at crotch level, does it? Since when did, “hey, everyone’s doin’ it, so I should do it” become the benchmark of conservativism? Since when did, “hey, Johnny did it, so I can do it and you can’t say I’m wrong, so there!” become a reasonable statement? They claim that I had a problem with their physical appearance. That is a big, fat lie. I accused them of USING their looks AND their bodies to attract a younger readership. And they ARE! Isn’t that what EVERYONE does? It’s called the EASY way out, Chicks. I just don’t think it’s either necessary or useful for conservative women. It think it cheapens our ideas significantly.
So, the two ‘snarky’ women used their BULLY PULPIT (bought by their sexuality and desperate need to be ‘cool’), wrote a personal attack piece on me and then challenged me to respond. I did. And I sent an olive branch to them. To be firmly rejected. Apparently, I called them prostitutes. And they don’t ‘get’ my comment. There’s a lot these ‘ladies’ don’t get, don’t you think? You have officially become BIMBOS, my little bullies. Intelligent women ‘get’ things.
I mean, they would actually have to own up to the very thing they accused me of: Chicks tearing each other down! And that would be a loss of too much face, eh, Bullies, I mean, Chicks?
Let’s evaluate the situation, shall we? I am a stay at home mom working my ass off from early morning to late in the evening, doing research and getting on the news before most bloggers are on it. And I work with other bloggers who do the same- NONE of us are famous and NONE of us wish for fame or money. We just love our country and our God. We are ON the news- certainly before the Bullies on the Right are on it. They post hours, if not DAYS , after we risk-taking investigative bloggers do the real work. They sit there, determining if the piece will please their audience and elicit a response. THEN they post it, along with their ‘snarky’, uber-cool teenage comments. They should be called ‘Chickens on the Right’. I have NEVER asked for a penny in my life nor will I EVER for my blogging hours. I have stood for my ideas and have been persecuted for them. With zero compensation! THEY have a nice little DONATE button and are opening a little store to make money. Ah, so now we get to it. Short Little Rebel is in it for the LOVE OF COUNTRY and LOVE OF GOD. Bullies on the Right are on it for the MONEY. They know damn well that sex sells. So does the political cheap shot. So does HATE (oh, I’m sorry, I meant ‘SNARK’).
Rather than accept my olive branch, they chose instead to skew my words and my meaning. And they made fun of MY blog- ie, how SMALL it is! The nerve. These two self proclaimed ‘intelligent’ women suggest that I, too, should grease my legs and buy some pink bubble gum too. Perhaps, then, my Short Little Rebel site will match theirs! Nice. But no thanks. I bank on IDEAS and LOGIC. Sure, it’s the harder, slower way. But everything worth ANYTHING always is. So, Chicks, you can keep your SNARK, your leg grease and your bubble gum. Good luck to ya. I will stay on the ‘road less taken’. Not glammorous, but I believe in it.
I’m a conservative democrat, but I completely agree with you. I wrote in about something offensive they said and they seemed too dumb to comprehend what I was saying and resorted to name calling. I feel like both parties put a lot of not so bright people in the spotlight. Maybe radio and tv stations think Americans are so dumb that we won’t notice. I almost voted for Romney this past election because of government spending, but people like this are so repellant, I couldn’t bring myself to be anything like them. I too like logic and ideas and am often seen as an outsider. Good for you for keeping you beliefs and not sinking to the vapid and pop-culture version of politics.
Thanks, Gigi. We have no good choices anymore. Most Americans fail to realize that the People are now on their own. Both parties are now Progressive. There ARE no Democrats or Republicans anymore. Just Progressives. Where are the JFKs & Reagans? GONE. Many, many Americans believe that Progressive is the same as Democrat or Liberal- it isn’t. It is a desire to end national sovereignty of all nations (starting with the USA) in favor of world government. Not only is this their real belief, but they are proud of it. Most keep it under the radar from the public and the media, as it is also 100% owned by Progressives, never reveals it-so most people haven’t a clue. Both parties are now working toward this end. That is why you will see Republicans like McCain advocating for immigration ‘reform’ (which diminishes the line between Mexico & America) and the use of the military on U.S. citizens (NDAA 2012) and Democrats who openly push for America to give up its military control and abdicate it to the authority of the UN (thus blurring the sovereignty of America). When you put the correct lenses on, you will see that both parties are corrupt to their horrible, rotten bones. And suddenly, politics and world events become perfectly predictable and understandable. And WE, the People, are being pit against each other by this fantasy called Dem vs. GOP. Well, guess what? There are more than two sides to the story. One side the media presents is Democrat/liberal (MSNBC, CNN, etc) and the other is GOP (FOX). We have been bombarded so furiously and so frequently with this concept that the People have forgotten the THIRD side- and that is the TRUTH.
Wow! So you were victimized by them too. Another thing we have in common! My friend started a FB page, Chicks on the Left, as a Liberal equivalent to COTR. Well, they completely lost their minds. They even started their own page and kept talking about their brand. They even went so far as to claim that they were being censored by FB which got them on Fox, a book deal, and now a radio show. Keep on doing what you are doing. I appreciate it.
You. Are. Amazing.
Selling anything we have to “say” by using our looks – that’s what people in Hollywood do and I shudder to think about using any of those loons as my moral compass. And then, if people are do distracted…does it really matter what you say at the end of the day?? Perhaps it makes it less offensive when the words come from someone who looks “hot”? I don’t know. I just know that you can’t have it both ways – if they want to act and dress like a tart and put themselves out there at least they should put on big girl panties and take the criticisms like a woman.
Kudos to you. By the way, I find your blog to be better written, more in depth and more welcoming than theirs.
Keep writing!
Thanks, Ashley. I can’t agree more. I don’t like what they refer to as ‘snark’. To me, it’s just mean girl talk. Quick one liners don’t cut the mustard in my book. THAT can be gleaned off the backs of better thinkers than they. I have actually had men recommend that I do the whole sex kitten thing to sell my blog, twitter, etc. NO THANKS. I love looking nice. A little sexy is fine- but NOT for your cover page and not for complete strangers and NOT for a serious message! Well, all that happened quite a while back. They’ve moved on and so have I.
I just found your blog and couldn’t agree more, I support 100% and I will follow your blog more often, now my thoughts. You can’t just simply remake conservatism no more than you can remake the events of the bible, the constitution, the declaration of independence, or American history its self, it is what it is. Conservatism is an ideology, a belief system and a way of life. It is built on thousands of years of history, sacrifice, and bloodshed. It is belief system that transcends time; it’s unchanging, unwavering and highly resistant to imposters. Changing any part of conservatism especially with a “new look” is to render all the work in vain that was done before us. With conservatism comes continued responsibility and sacrifice.
This just goes to show, these chicks just cannot accept conservatism in its purest form. I guess the only good thing is they certainly make no attempt to hide who they are. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I hate the Chicks; I just don’t know their true motive. I think they really don’t understand the history and values behind conservatism. Before you can make acceptable, meaningful change to a value system you fist must know what you are trying changing and if it fits in to the history of what you are changing. Conservatism is very much about history, values and sacrifice. This is only understood by reading. So then, the question then becomes what are you really trying to change, public perception or conservatism its self? We are not in any scene of the meaning what you are trying to create us to be and will be rebuked you with great wrath and resistance and purpose. I know some great people that just cannot accept conservatism the way it is, so they are always trying to move the goal posts and change the definition of conservatism whenever it doesn’t fit their life style. Rather than being more like a conservative they want conservatives to more like them. This is not a true patriot
David, I could not agree more. The Chicks make me sick. They play sex kitten to the point of complete embarrassment! As a WOMAN, they offend me. Is THAT what it takes to make it in this world? Since I asked that question, they have only gotten worse. I know their true goal: fame and fortune. They NEVER talk about God or Jesus. They are not Christians. They are trying to ‘remake’ conservatism as a sexy kinda libertarianism. Furthermore, they don’t actually write anything. They are all about riding the coat tails of other, better thinkers. They ride on the foam of republican thought, taking one liner punches at Obama and his minons. But they never propose any solutions or ways to handle anything. They are the whores of politics- they are here for only one reason: themselves.
I recently accidentally caught these “LADIES” when I accidentally landed my car radio on a TALK STATION. where they basically referred to WELFARE as SOCIALISM. Seems anything that republicans decide they don’t like automatically gets labeled as socialism. Check out their CHICKTIONARY on their web site. A list of ad homonyms assigning crude, insultive titles to top democrats. Such as celebridiot n. A celebrity who is an idiot aka liberal. or Debbie McFrizz n. Nickname for Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D). Like most Republicans, they can’t deal with facts and issues. Rather they fall to personal attacks and slander to “PROVE” their position. Who writes their copy? RUSH LIMBAUGH ?
Rod, these women have no intention of making the world a better place. They are motivated by two things: fame & money. I leave them to it.
I found out about your blog just today. I must say I am not a religious person but I enjoy your writings enormously. That said, sorry if I bring this back but this entry made want to leave a comment because I have a FB account and I could visit their page to see what these 2 are about.
And what I have to say is: you’re just right about who they are, the spoiled mean girls from high school who to my point of view never grew up. Seriously, who takes pictures of themselves with poses like this one?: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152252635320494&set=pb.195530355493.-2207520000.1356020906&type=3&theater and wants to be taken seriously? Heck, not even I did ever take a picture when I was 16 in a pose like that. It is just ridiculous how they act for their age. I read in their cover picture one comment saying “Beauty and brains”. If is that so, I don’t want to know what “ugly and hair head” is. I see that only air heads are those following them because it looks like all of their followers just adore their dumb picture posses and never write anything negative to them.
Again, sorry for bring this back again but I had to vent my mind and I thought if I did in in their page I was going to kinda get banned and reported as I imagine they did with you.
*Ugly and air head. Sorry for my writing. English is not my main language,
Wow. Just checked out the photo on your link. Just plain stupid. They truly attempt to attract middle aged men to their page. Those kinds of ‘like’ have nothing to do with politics or truth. They are in it for money. I spit on them. Geeze.
p.s. just added that photo to this article. lol! Betty, I saw that they IMMEDIATELY called you a bitch for pointing out how unprofessional that photo was. Just shrug it off. Not worth your concern. Find me on FB and get involved in the real conversation. btw: I am not ‘religious’ at all! Christ isn’t religion. He simply IS. Hope you get to know him via my page. In any case, welcome to both my blog here and my FB page.
Little,
Your wasting your time and talent on foolish and silly reader comments. Don’t bother getting involved in such nonsense.
Not to worry, White! Already moved on. Just had to say what I had to say. It’s over for me but I believe the discussion & hatred of me, personally, rages on at their site. I don’t open the slew of hate mail I am receiving, but… it’s a pretty hefty load. It truly amazes me…
Hi SLR, not to keep this going… I disagree with both the chicks *and* your writings. You should have sent them a private message and not made this public, or they should have taken the high road when seeing your public comments and sent you a private message. I wasn’t going to comment because it’s gotten old, but one of the things bothering me in your writing, not related to the chicks debacle, is that one minute you’re quoting scripture and talking about Jesus, and the next you’re writing “what the hell”. Why do you do that? Your written word could be out there forever, we as Christians certainly do need to stick together, and also hold each other accountable to make us better. Not sure it’s going to matter to you but the cursing really bothers me. Thanks,
Hi Kim,
I apologize for the cursing. I wasn’t really myself- nor would you be if someone dedicated that much vitriol at you. If you read through the comments on that page, it’s pretty astounding. I am surprised that with all that hate directed at me, you still wish to come to my page to give me yet more tongue lashing. I don’t remember writing, ‘what the hell’, but take your word for it. For that, I apologize. But not for the sentiment behind it. I am not made of stone and those two are just crazy. Sorry, but there it is. I’ve moved past this- just as you should.
btw, Kim, they don’t have a MESSAGE button. Unlike me. Like I said, Chickens on the Right.
I liked what you said, so I went to your page, but can’t find a message button. Is it still there?
Kent, I have removed it. feel free to message anywhere on my articles
Left a comment last nite about the “whippin” I took from the chicks,just it make the cut. Still like what you have to say. Go girl.
Sorry it just came up.
Just wanted to chime in. I make the unfortunate mistake of letting my anger oget the best of me over a slur on the First Lady made by the Chicks. I would like to apoligize to all women for using to term Bimbo in response to their post. It was a knee-jerk reaction, and I am sorry. As you can see on their page, I’ve been demonized by a large number a their followers and exposed my 12 yr old grandaughter and fiance to vicious messages after their post of my FB link. All of this over them being disrespectful to the President and the First Lady. They may not like him, but he is still the President. You keep up the good work.
Went back for a little more abuse today. Got another ear full. When this first started I had recieved a photo shared by a friend. It was a women holding a child in her arms asking the baby if she had heard all the fairy tales she told at her convention speech by the First Lady. and about all her wonderful accomplishments blah,blah. So it struck me as not in good taste.
These photo and cartoons that float around FB have a comment box at the bottom. Ifirst thought dumb blonds, but commented Bimbos not really taking it that serious. didn’t realize bimbo was suce a vile word. Not sexual or nasty,but they went bonkers.Wrote a full page collum w/ photos hacked from my fackbook pic’s. I tried a half-hearted appology…not accepted was call a Misogynistic, Pig, Intolerant big fat hypocrite, Stinkin P.O.S. Drunken Parrothead, shallow cowardly dickhead. All that for bimbo. The thing is today to run a self-professed Right wing blog your going to get a few people with different views. especally when the get pass around from friend to friend. Seams to me the”chicks on the right” need to get thicker skin or put down the crack pipe. things were way overblown now ther are maybe 120 comments for the story. they should be happy I stured up the pot alittle. These guys don’t take prisoner!!
If you go to any proporganda site like this or even MSN money or sports they have counter view to alot of issues posted in the comment section. it never get mean and nasty like this. Maybe it’s about getting more hits on the site.?
Roger, they have built their site on sex and ‘snark’. Both sell very well.
lol, Roger! Hey, I got the same treatment- so did a lot of other people. The Chicks are just mean girls from high school. They have a gang of ‘snarky’ people who enjoy their sharp tongue and empty mind. So be it. At this point, they just make me laugh.
Thomas, (sorry, I refered to you earlier as Roger) I’m not sure you are the one who should be apologizing. They have created a hateful MOB and encourage their hateful MOB to attack anyone or anything that so much as squeaks at them. Attacking people like a vicious mob is just not right. They ARE bimbos. As a woman, I have no problem with that term. It has a valid use and those two are perfect examples. Unless you think of Bimbos as nice as well as stupid! ;-D Rest assured, you can comment on my site every time I make fun of the First Lady or the president! I won’t send a mob after you (cause none of my readers have that mentality), but I might disagree with you. If that’s ok then we’re ok! smiles and have a good day!
Thanks Little Rebel, I was taught a good lesson,ie don’t mess with people w/better computer skills. haha Seriously, I shut down my FB for awhile. Although I had my settings to ‘friends only’ they were able to get to my photos and friends. My three grandaughters 12 and 11 yr twin girls were of concern. They also post one of their names.
I really haven’t ever been subjected to this kind of abuse w/my on page called “Misogynistic Pig” with a link to my FB page. I don’t know if you saw the page they did a real number on me. I sure from now on I’ll think twice before I hit send. Thanks for the support. Good luck with the blog. Tom “misogynistic pig’
They linked to my page as well- they know darned well that their attack dogs would show up. They have the nerve to put something about Christianity on the front of their blog- big, too. They culture an atmospher of hate & ‘snark’ and then attempt to act innocent when their little snarkers use foul language, wish people death, scorn, mock and basically go for the jugular. It makes them feel justified and safe. Like I said, they are ‘Chickens on the Right’. They are beneath you and your family. I’m glad you are taking a break from FB. I delete them instantly! Did you read my follow up post, “Your Freedom of Speech Ended on My Doorstep”? You should it will make you smile. Have a great day and put this behind you. I’m sure you are NOT a pig of any sort! ;-D
I’ve been reading both of your blogs for quite a while now, and frankly I’m probably going to stop. I would like to think that three grown women would be able to co-exist in the right wing blogosphere. This is high school drama. The cynic in the back of my mind is telling me that all three of you concocted this little “War” in order to attract more attention to both of your blogs.
rgrysban, I have a serious doubt whether you have been reading my blog for ANY length of time. You have a right to do whatever you want. I had every right to defend myself. Personally, I am moving on with my message. As for us cooking this up, you make me laugh. These bimbettes tried to cook me for lunch- for the pleasure of their audience. But I will say this: they certainly HAVE increased my readership! lol!
So sorry they misread your intention Susan. It seems clear enough to me, but sometimes if you hot a nerve, people get tetchy. I very deliberately don’t even use a full face pic of myself, it isn’t about me, it is about what I am writing about, and I know that’s true for you too.
It is difficult sometimes being a woman in the blogosphere. So many comments seem to get made about one’s appearance. It may be that the ‘chicks’ were having ‘fun’, but they should be up for someone calling it as they see it.
Hang in there sister
Hi Jessica. I would understand if they were irritated and asked me to clarify. But they didn’t. Even when I did clarify, they lambasted me more. I once gave these two a little credit (I never knew much about them before seeing their pict. which showed up on newsfeed because some friends like them). But no more. Their overreaction showed their hand. And it is not a true one. I hit a nerve and no matter what wording I used, they would have done the same thing. I basically said they were using sex to sell their message to a younger audience. And they are. And they know it. THAT’S what bothered them. In any case, Jessica, I wondered last night if God didn’t mean this to happen. Interestingly enough, my FB and blog readership exploded last night. I don’t just stand up for conservatism. I stand up for CHRISTIAN conservatism- something most political writers are terrified to do. I think God wanted his message to spread farther. And this little, strange occurrence has assured that. So, we will see. ;-D
I am glad to hear that,dear sister. I am going to go over there to see what they said, but no matter, you were right – and they couldn’t take it. Bless you for your bravery for the Lord.
Jessica, it would make me laugh to know they are still at it. Me, I’m off to POLITICS, baby! ;-D
Well, they had a whole pile of comments under the second post on you – which is plain weird. You’re right to go do something which matters.
hello! to be honest, i only caught wind of all this, sipping my tea and sleepily scanning the web this morning. i stumbled onto the chicks’ blog, first, via a facebook link. and, upon reading one of their more recent diatribes against you, i thought, ‘ouch. so feral! who is the poor soul they’re manically attacking?” i had to find your blog. and, from the outside looking in, i can recognize a girlfriend who needs a hug.
i’m so sorry this has happened. i totally get it, i get why you had to defend yourself, and why you are probably still feeling the upset of it in your gut. i also think it’s a shame that their followers went zombie apocalypse on you. i especially enjoy the first commenter’s suggestion that you should be saving the country instead of attacking people. yes, what a waste of time and intelligence…attacking people…
based on first impressions, i think you ARE intelligent. you are cool. but i also think you should start taking steps away from all this. it will only piss you off more, and keep you from concentrating on the passions that make you unique. have some chocolate, some tea, quiet time, whatever makes you relax. lay all things chick-related to rest. let God have at it. and, continue with your days, writing as badass as you can. love to you, for real!
E, you are very kind and wise. I have slept on it. I have moved on, sister! Hey, I’m just a nobody out here- a lone voice. The fact that they took such a public swipe at me truly shocked me. And your hug is appreciated. I’m not so proud that I won’t say it hurt. It did. But the enormous support that has come my way makes me feel happy. There truly are many good hearted people out there. This morning, I had a cup of coffee and my husband bought freshly baked donuts. My kids are all around me and I hear the sounds of their voices playing. Does it get any better? I am ok today. Thank you so much for your kindness and for reaching out to a stranger, E. I love the Internet! ;-D
it doesn’t get any better than kids and donuts
nope! And I just ate highly peppered chicken breast strips with Strawberry Balsalmic vinigrette! yummmm…
I agree with E. They aren’t worth a second more of your precious time!
Thanks, Ellen! Moving on and talking shop are just what the doctor ordered!
I just have to say that you have made an absolute fool of yourself. You are now wallowing in shameful attacks that not only lessen your creditability as a blogger, but also as a woman and a Christian.
You say “First, I take offense at that! I DO ‘wield a firearm’ and I DO wear a business suit. The seriousness of what is happening in our nation DOES make me scowl. Sorry, can’t just go shoe shopping and SNARK at people with ‘gleeful’ photos being taken of my crotch! AND, I happen to LIKE stodgy old white guys! My Dad is one of those guys! The CHICKS are SELL OUTS. They hate the white male just like the LIBERALS and ATHEISTS do. Apparently, we need to ‘remake’ our image to NOT include you, fellas!”
That attack is amazing. You have supported The Chicks and even re-posted their material for quite some time and now you expect your readers to believe that all-of-a-sudden you are offended by their bio???? That tells me that you think your readers are idiots. What YOU need to do is get over yourself. YOU attacked and called them names on THEIR FB page. YOU started it and if you were the Christian you claim to be, you would search for humility and apologize for starting this whole stupid mess.
The life of our country is at stake. I would suggest you use your time to help save our country rather than attacking people and going tit-for-tat to TRY and save face over something so trivial.
Sheesh. What a waste of time and intelligence.
Debbie, you are WRONG that I even read their bio before! Heck, I have only seen them via my FB post via my friend who likes them. Also, they repost MY stuff and my friend’s stuff. Well after we did. I reposted maybe one or MAYBE two from them. In general, I haven’t really liked their flip commentary. I was just being polite. Today is the very first time I EVER visited their actual site. I have never visited their FB site (I don’t think) until today. I didn’t even know about their foul attack on me until one of my subscribers TOLD me about it! THAT’s how much attention I paid to them. Their reaction startled me to say the least. As for me, I NEVER called them names, nor did I attack their ‘physical appearance’. You and they need to lie to make your point. Not me. I wrote a two or three sentence statement to them questioning the need to use SEX to sell conservative values. THEY posted many, many ugly commentes AND a full post on their bully pulpit before I ever even knew they had responded to my comment. No, they did start it, dear. I am within my FULL RIGHTS to defend myself against their unwarranted attacks. Now, don’t use my Christianity against me. NO ONE ever said being a Christian meant allowing others to LIE about you and defame you in such a brutal way. Unlike THEM, I do what I do for FREE. They do it for fame and money. Hence, their stupid DONATION button and STORE. Where the money is… there lies the corruption. Me? I spend hours and hours caring about my country. YOU don’t need to lecture me about it. The day you spend as many hours as me, investigating, writing, and working for the conservative Christian cause is the day you can remind me of all the work that needs to be done.
I would say that accusing someone of “prostituting” herself is name calling. You did start this, so I don’t think you should be surprised that there was a reaction. If I were you, I would drop this. They have a point – and a bigger megaphone.
Stellap, move on. I said, “prostituting OURselves”. Sorry they and you can’t tell the difference and can’t understand an expression when you see it. Those who wish to take offense will surely find it. Further, do you really believe that if I had left out the word ‘prostituting’, they would NOT have lost their sell-out minds? Let’s say that I said, “Chicks, posing for overtly sexual photos cheapens the conservative message significantly and I don’t believe it is necessary or helpful to the conservative woman’s cause.” They would have written the EXACT same article. They are sell-outs and they are indeed using sex to gain an audience. It is the essential TRUTH of my comment to which they took offense. It stung them terribly- this usually happens when someone touches upon a truth. They didn’t have a ‘reaction’. They had an OVER reaction. And a petty, mean-spirited one. As for me ‘dropping this’ because they have a ‘bigger megaphone’, you make me laugh. I stand up for what I believe in, come hell or high water. I don’t give a damn what they say. Either they deleted every comment that favored my sentiment or they truly have a nasty crowd of readers. Either way, more power to ‘em. There are so many hate sites FILLED with likes. There is even one hate site that calls a poor, genetically wounded child all kinds of nasty names. And they got thousands of likes in just one day. People love the cheap shot, Stellap. As I said, I’ll take the road less taken. And these two can have their menopausal hysterics until the cows come home..they make me laugh.
Removed my comment once again. You really should ban me. You have the right.
done.
Like everything else in the world… sex sells. It’s sad to me that their latest image of one of them straddling a chair with a provocative look on her face is part of their new PR image. What exactly are they trying to convey? WHAT in the world do their husbands/children think? Have they read all the comments from men saying things like “i need a cold shower” or “my phone just melted” or “how about some tasteful nudity now?” I think they like it. It’s called narcissism. I unliked their page just now. Not that they’ll miss me, and I won’t miss them. Too bad they can’t just stick to the topics and keep their desire for ill-gotten attention from any breathing male out of it. I get the cutesy bubble gum pic, the fun shoes, etc., but I don’t get “selling out,” and by that I mean your image no longer matches your ideals. By definition (at least in my world) conservatism encompasses modesty. And, modest, they are not. Any intelligent woman or man who wants to debate these topics would listen to two non-sexy women on any conservative outlet and get the same (albeit the entertainment factor would be lower sans the catlike snarkasm) satisfaction out of the discourse. Thanks for posting this! I thought I was the only conservative without chick-colored glasses! See ya, bubble blowers.
Writentexas, Amen, sister! I never even meant to insult them! I asked a question. It’s a totally valid one for women. I saw the chair picture too. But they are so disingenuous. They say they are ‘just two girlfriends snarking about politics’. Every woman and man understands these things. I thought they had potential. I did. But this crazy response of theirs, along with the total rejection of my olive branch, showed them for what they are: cheap sell outs looking to make a buck.
Lifting you (and the situation) up Susan… hang in there and do all for the Glory of God ((HUGS))
Matthew 5:10 – “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
Thanks, buddies. All your comments are salve to a hurting heart. These ladies attacked their own ally. And their readership are ‘snarky’ too. wow.
The readers are as bad or worst.than the chick. I do think the hate is park of the story. Someone disagrees an they all pile on. Keep it up Short Little Rebel. The election will be over soon and things will calm down abit.
Hi Thomas, we all have bigger fish to fry than two bimbettes trying to make a buck in lower echelon of society. They will only reap the just rewards for their actions. Of that, I have no doubt.
Sad indeed! I agree with Anthony, creative may fit to a degree but creative is positive and they are not positive at all! God bless you!
OK, here’s the deal.. and this is apparently coming from one of those old white foggys. I don’t care for what the Chicks on the Right have to say anymore than I care what Jan Morgan and PolitiChicks have to say. They are ALL sell-outs who have taken a political opportunity and turned it into some sexist attempt to showcase their intelligence, or lack thereof. Right now, it seems CHICKS in politics are HAWT (ie Sarah Palin, Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter, et al). Its some sort of POLITCAL SEXUAL REVOLUTION, and they are taking advantage of it every chance they get.
I can’t tell you the number of times one of the aforementioned have taken writings and political discourse right off my website and tried to twist it to their own words. What is TRULY SAD in this election cycle right now is how PATRIOTISM and SUPPORT FOR OUR TROOPS is so popular that a lot of unintelligent people will overlook critical thinking because the CHICKS think if they dress all cutesy it makes them more intelligent and marketable. Same thing with Jan Morgan. She parades herself around with a rifle and posts her pictures and suddenly she’s some expert on political theory and the Second Amendment. But hey, the Chicks ain’t the only ones… how about that DUDE, Ted Nugent? What a sorry excuse for a MAN he really is if you delve into his past and his present. (http://www.debbieschlussel.com/48944/ted-nugent-deserved-to-be-in-jail-or-dead-long-before-obama-draft-dodging-multi-babydaddy/) YEAH, dude can ROCK the guitar. Yeah, the dude had a GREAT hunting show. BUt when you peel back the payers, he’s still a sorry individual when it comes to what he did with his country, his wife and his children. Maybe people need to really look into THAT before they start picking their heros.
I have nothing for the Chicks on the Right, Jan Morgan, PolitiChicks or “Uncle Teddy.” Those who DO, are misinformed and are feeding off the BS that comes with sex, drugs and rock-n-roll.
And now let’s look at the PATRIOTISM theme that is so popular right now. Oh hell, its a GOLDMINE! Look at all the washed up, never before “patriot” singers and entertainers coming out of the wood work proclaiming just how much they LOVE this country, how much they SUPPORT ouw military and veterans. And WHY, you ask? Because it’s POPULAR, its PROFIABLE and it can JUMPSTART a worn-out, one-hit wonder career because its the POPULAR thing to be right now.
Give.Me.A.Break.
Chicks on the Right, Jan Morgan, PolitiChicks would be NOTHING if they were FEMALES. That is the ONLY thing that makes them popular right now. I actually question whether they have EVER had an original thought in their heads or do they just spew everyone else’s sentiment? I’m betting on the latter, with a side of SEX APPEAL!
Keep up the brave and brilliant work Suan. Luv ya sister!
Spot on!!
It is so sad, what people do for attention. However some attention seekers are pretty creative, unfortunately for the two mentioned in your article, “creative
” is not the word applicable for these two.
Thanks, wdednh. You know, I never even meant to cause such a ruckus. Heck, I supported them. Talk about a thin skin AND too much pride to apologize!
One thing ive learned about imposters and that is they might fool people for a time, but eventually they have to revert to their natural form in order to survive. You see the Air in our universe does not support their existence for long
