Palin, Bush must be proud

Wow! Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers was so impressive on “Meet the Press” April 29. She was so confident and clear, direct and forceful in her answers representing us women. She reminds me so much of Sarah Palin in how succinctly they agree and articulate women’s values and needs. Cathy’s voting record is almost perfectly conservative with Sarah and the GOP. She supported the GOP Bush administration economic policies until the bank failures and recession.

The opposing lefty gal tried to stump Cathy about voting against the Lilly Ledbetter bill, but we don’t need big government forcing business to give equal pay to women when we have a free market that will do it eventually. Voting for Cathy is the same as voting for George Bush’s policies and Sarah Palin.

We need to keep conservative values foremost in running our government. Big government has no business interfering in how women live and raise families, except regulating birth control. Cathy, Sarah and Mitt will ensure that conservative values prevail there. Oh, and not letting gays marry either.

The GOP won’t let gays marry, and Cathy will do something about jobs after we get Obama out.
