Got a glimpse of this yesterday. I did not pay much attention, but it kept bothering me. I remembered that Evie Hudak was a Colorado State Senator that dismissed rape victim Amanda Collins when she was giving testimony against the new Gun Control initiatives that eventually were forced down in that state.
Now, this is a double failure on the Moms as they have been pushing their BS since October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
First MDA Fail: Ms Hudak had this to say to Ms. Collins:
“I just want to say that, actually statistics are not on your side even if you had had a gun. You said that you were a marshal arts student, I mean person, experienced in tae kwan do, and yet because this individual was so large, he was able to overcome you, even with your skills[*]. And, chances are that if you would have had a gun, then he would have been able to get that from you and possibly use it against you….”
They are so compassionate it makes you puke, doesn’t it. And let’s keep the misogynistic concept that women are incapable of being responsible and able to defend themselves, shall we? My Body, My Choice except when it comes to Self Defense.
Second MDA Fail: The woman in the picture is not Evie Hudak.
This is Evie Hudak:
You may want to check her website if you don’t believe me.
Do notice that at the moment of this screen cap, over 1,300 people liked the post and 56 made comments. Not one of the comments pointed out that the photo was not of Ms. Hudak and actually this comment takes the win:
The fertilizer of Astroturf is Ignorance. Unfortunately, there is an overproduction of it.
I’d invite miss Darcy Weinstein to spend a Colorado winter half-naked and barefoot and see whether that accusation even makes any sense.(Granted, I wear T-shirts down to 20 degrees…)

[…] Apparently if you work to un-elect your elected representative, and that representative happens to be a woman, it’s war on women! […]
Oh my… Moms teach their children how to stand up to bullies? A good progressive mom teaches her child to never strike back and if threatened to go tell a teacher/adult. Not bad advice when a child is six, but not fully suitable prep for the outside world. That’s where the dads (or the more non-progressive moms) come in and take the kiddo aside and explain that they should never strike first, but if they get attacked to kick the snot out of the bully. Now THAT translates into a useful life lesson. Those ‘moms’ are a bit full of themselves, aren’t they?
I believe the first picture is State Rep Rhonda Fields, herself no prize, she carried the magazine limitation bill in the House without apparently ever reading it. It looks bad, you know, when the House Judiciary chairman asks you where in a 3-page bill is the exemption for Mag Pul in front of several thousand spectators and you have no idea what he’s talking about.
And you are right sir.
If Jabba had a daughter…
That poor lady makes my baby, Debbie W-S, look even sexier….. 🙂
Wow, that’s a GREAT BIG pile of fail right there!
Good snag! Also I’d be amused how long the wrong image stays up before they figure out what their “Best Friend” looks like!
MDA Using the war on women as the cry against the recall bid. Is it not completely clear at this point that the anti-civil rights crowd is run out of the DNC? While many people who consider themselves as dems are strong supports of the second amendment as shown by their vote in the recall, their party allegiance is self destructive. In VA the dem running for governor has posted his anti gun stance on his web-site. The DNC is tearing away from it’s grass roots support on the gun rights issue; the question is why go full out now? They have to believe that the large metro areas of the country that trend anti gun can carry the state and the country and they have no need of gun owners to win most offices, minus a small CO set back.
I posted to the Moms Demand Action FB posting simply “I wonder why the picture isn’t Evie Hudak.” And my comment was removed and I was blocked from posting on FB for 12 hours!
They used the picture they did to insinuate BECAUSE RACIST as well.
I suspect they have some data (polling or anecdotal) that shows there is less sympathy for an obese white legislator, and thus avoided using Sen Hudak’s actual mug shot.
