SC Senator: Women Are ‘A Lesser Cut Of Meat’
[su_right_ad]South Carolina Thomas Corbin continues the Republican tradition of sexist remarks.
Corbin’s comments – made at a legislative dinner held in downtown Columbia, S.C. – were reportedly directed at S.C. Senator Katrina Shealy, the only female member of the 46-person State Senate…
Corbin – no stranger to making bizarre statements – is said to have begun needling his lone female colleague regarding her gender.
“I see it only took me two years to get you wearing shoes,” Corbin told Shealy, who was elected in 2012 as a petition candidate…
At one point in the conversation – which quickly escalated into a confrontation – Shealy is said to have angrily asked Corbin where he “got off” attacking women.
His response – overheard by numerous lobbyists and fellow lawmakers – was one for the ages.
“Well, you know God created man first,” Corbin said, reportedly smirking at Shealy. “Then he took the rib out of man to make woman. And you know, a rib is a lesser cut of meat.”

You are nothing other than a lesser cut of a man!

“…Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground…”
So it would seem Mr Corbin, you were created from dirt…

And yet he has been elected twice, and as an incumbent, will continue to be elected as long as he runs. That’s how stupid the voters in this country are.

Dumb as dirt….
Sadly, the stupidity of my fellow countrymen never surprises me.

…and doesn’t seem to have evolved all that much (from dirt).

well, all the republican women in that state are obviously stupid and all the republican males obviously have mommy issues, that they vote this ignorant bastard into office.

Get this guy a slot on FOX — he’s FABulous. I hope they let him run his mouth day-in, day-out.

That’s some weapons-grade dumbassery, right there.

Well FUUUUUUUUU*K YOU buddy!
Yeah no long-winded diatribe, screw this guy square.

We can’t be shocked, the elections just occurred and the next election is over 18 months away. They show true colors now and in about one year, they start back peddling and claim they are working on change. Same BS, just on an off election year.

NCBI ROFL: What did God do with Adam’s penis bone?
(Rib is a mistranslation in the Bible. Think missing penis bone in humans!)
The Hebrew noun translated as “rib,” tzela (tzade, lamed, ayin), can indeed mean a costal rib. It can also mean the rib of a hill (2 Samuel 16:13), the side chambers (enclosing the temple like ribs, as in 1 Kings 6:5,6), or the supporting columns of trees, like cedars or firs, or the planks in buildings and doors (1 Kings 6:15,16). So the word could be used to indicate a structural support beam.

Putz…its easier to say

I guess he couldn’t come up with a stupid rape comment so he fell back on this. I find it fascinating that everything comes back to the bible. Their “laws”, their ridiculous claims, their “jokes” and even their insults. It really is a source of inspiration… for sexism, prejudice and hate.

There is a Mrs. Corbin. I’m sure she’s feeling very loved and apprciated about now. Wonder where Tom’s sleeping tonight?

I just bet that the dumb assed cows who did vote for him were told to by their equally dumb assed husbands.
Mike February 13th, 2015 at 10:43 pm
Or you could say a bunch of Prime Ribs voted for a Rump Roast…:)
