On Wednesday, Fox & Friends host
Gretchen Carlson invited retired Air Force colonel and Arizona
congressional candidate Martha McSally to the show to discuss
where McSally believes the real “war on women” is being waged — not in the U.S.,
but in places like Kabul.
McSally dismissed the rhetoric surrounding the GOP’s policies toward women —
dubbed the “war on women” by politicians and the media alike — as “partisan
attacks” and “diversions” from substantive issues. What women in her district
are really concerned about, she said, are jobs, affordable health care, and
education.
She eschewed criticism that she herself engages in this “war,” adding that
she has “been standing up and fighting for women’s rights my whole life,”
including taking a stand “against the Pentagon policy that made our U.S.
servicewomen wear Muslim garb in Saudi Arabia” and “standing up for women to
serve in any capacity in the military.”
