So, a bunch of radical bra burning man haters want to build a "Woman's History Museum" on the NATIONAL MALL in Washington DC. Now , I for one don't really have any trouble with this, I mean, how freakin' much room could this " museum" take? What a couple of dress patterns and a cook book ?
BUT, thanks be to our Father in Heaven, big time carnivores Senators Jim DeMint of South Carolina and all around sweetheart, Oklahoma's own Tom Coburn have stepped into this fray by blocking these feminazi's from desecrating our sacred National male.. I mean mall! MALL ( but, have you seen the Washington Monument? )
From the hyper masculine newspaper USA Today : WASHINGTON — A letter from two senators is the only thing blocking congressional approval of a decade-long effort to build a women's history museum in the nation's capital.
Sens. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., and Jim DeMint, R-S.C., have placed a "hold" on a bill that would sell land near the Smithsonian Institution for the National Women's History Museum. A "hold" is a Senate practice that prevents bills from passing with unanimous consent — and implicitly threatening a filibuster.
The senators say their concerns are financial: Though the museum would pay fair market value for the land, the group has raised little money. And they said the new institution would duplicate more than 100 similar museums — some of which already get taxpayer subsidies.
Abortion politics are also in play: The senators' action came two days after the Concerned Women for America, a conservative group, wrote DeMint asking for a hold. The group's CEO, Penny Nance, wrote in July that the museum would "focus on abortion rights without featuring any of the many contributions of the pro-life movement in America."
The House passed the bill last year. Unless the Senate takes it up soon, supporters will have to start over with a new Congress next year. [the rest]
