GOP congressman lamented not being able to call women 'sluts' anymore

2/ "In one instance, while arguing that "young single women" vote based on coverage of birth control pills, Lewis said those women were not human beings and were without brains."

3/ ...It used to be that women were held to a little bit of a higher standard. We required modesty from women. Now, are we beyond those days where a woman can behave as a slut, but you can't call her a slut?"

"Lewis, during a December 2012 segment on changes in the culture, said, "Only we can tell our young women, 'don't look like some slut and you won't get hit on.'"

"...he called young female voters "ignorant of the important issues in life" who needed to be educated."

"To the degree that the Republicans or conservatives or Mitt Romney has an issue with women, maybe it isn't Mitt Romney or his positions. Maybe it's the women. We all know that women tend to vote more liberal than men. It is the women who are guided by more emotion than reason."

"They're guided by emotion not reason. Why, that's why they didn't have the vote for a full century in the country."

"So there is something here going on with women who are playing into that stereotype that they're not thinking...when you knee-jerk Democrat vote -- is birth control really that important to you ladies? Is that really the most important thing that you get your condoms for free?"

"The next day, Lewis argued that "young single women" who voted based on coverage of birth control pills had ceased to be human beings."

"You can be bought off for that? I mean, boy, all the other issues: the Hispanic problem, social issues, class warfare, you know, we can figure out a way to tackle those. This one, if you're that far down the road and you say you're a human being, I've got my suspicions."
