The leader of the S.C. Federation of Republican Women (SCFRW) is banning the group’s members from expressing their displeasure with the state’s GOP incumbents. In an email to the group’s members this weekend, president Charm Altman informed them they would not be allowed to introduce resolutions critical of “currently elected Republicans.”
“I do not want any negative resolutions,” Altman wrote. “If there is a candidate your club wishes to pass a resolution concerning negative feelings do so, but until after the primary we support our currently elected Republicans.”
Wait … what?
Last time we checked it was the job of party organizations to remain neutral during primary elections – not play favorites.
Altman is no stranger to toeing the line on behalf of establishment Republicans. Less than two weeks ago she made news by banning critics of U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (RINO-S.C.) from attending a breakfast event in Mount Pleasant, S.C.
The conduct of the SCFRW is frankly surprising considering Graham’s record is so anti-Republican – and considering one of his primary opponents is a woman.
Of course this wouldn’t be the first time a group of GOP biddies proved it was totally tone deaf to the world around them …

Very diverse group. Some with pants, some dresses….some dentures, some with teeth…same blue-hair rinse though.
There is adequate representation for good ol’ southern Republican bleach blonde too.
TBG finds it difficult to look at that picture and support the 19th amendment.

A simple amendment may alleviate your concerns:
Let me elucidate:
“Women may vote after making 1 male a sandwich.”
That should make everyone feel better.
Of course, it could be a shit sandwich, or a poisonous sandwich, but that’s dependent on them.
A US Congressman was once quoted as saying, after meeting a delegation of conservative Republican women opposing women’s right to vote: “I have never seen such a group so long on pedigree and short on looks.”
These people are no different than Democrats. We need a new Party involved in South Carolina.
I know these women don’t have balls, but they should at least have a spine. What a disgrace.
Is Lillian McBride on their board of directors?
Hmm?!?
Shifty, Shifty, Shifty
It is a “Republican” organization and in these parts they spell Republican- LILYWHITE
They’re just a bunch of morally void fatties..
–my attempt at sarcasm….
-so was mine
Dear Charm
Congratulations on your fabulous email
Just wondering when our new outfits will be ready. I have no problems with the Jack Boots, Black Skirt, Studded Leather Belt with matching Shoulder Strap and Brown Shirts. However I have concerns that no guidelines have been issued in regards to undergarments
Personally I think Black Granny Grabbers should be the Official Party Panty. I would just not feel comfortable standing next to someone thinking she could be wearing a thong or even worse going commando
Of more concern is breast concealment. Last month when we had our pool reception it was quite disturbing to see so many nipples. OMG do you remember the girl running against Senator Graham. Not that I paid any attention but they were as big around as a quarter and stuck out at least a ½ inch Being an Innie I feel that all breasts should be strapped down and padded so that even at 0 degrees Celsius nothing will pop up
Again, thanks for your leadership

ps My husband said the “cat o’ nine tails” you ordered from his Seed & Feed should be in by the end of the week
Who in the hell names their kid Charm?
For you upstate folks… it’s pronounced “Char’ Hum”.
And who said that Hitler wannabes had to be male.
The Stepford wives are GOP supporters?
Given what appears to be the average age of the ladies above – elderly, I bet they all request absentee ballots.
LOL…..LOL….which one is Lin Bennett..??
We need to take a Fitsnews betting pool on the wager of how many of these fine women have ever read the “Art of War”..?
Heck, how many of these fine women even want to WIN a war.??
This is a classic “Psyops” ploy……..and should be greatly awarded by the Nancy Mace campaign…!!
Can you imagine how Nancy Mace can use this one article in one of her debates..?
Talk about “Geritol Dynamite”….!!
Dear Charm Altman……….
We want to greatly applaud your efforts of “Dodge Fog” on the local voting public. What a brilliant media piece to be used BEFORE the primary elections. You are certainly wise to the fact of how leveraging critical information can be before a primary face off. This stunt provides plenty of cover after the primary results no matter WHO wins. All the while knowing that this piece is really a fluffer to the donors of US Senator Lindsey Graham.
Charm, we feel certain that you understand how car salesmen and women sell something at Altman Dodge..!!
Fitsnews does too………..
Charm, as you read this piece, we highly suggest that you pick up the phone and call Mrs Anita Zucker and have a chat.
P.S. Charm, how long do you think it would take SPAWAR Atlantic female workers to count Dodge cars in the parking lot ..?
1985 wants their picture back. You need to update your photo stock!
It may have escaped the attention of you half-witted libertarian losers, but the role of the party is to support the elected Republican incumbents. They are elected with the support of the vast majority of the party electorate and until they are not the nominee of the party, then they get the support of the party. That’s just the way it works. If you don’t like it, you can start your own party. Oh wait, you did that and were laughed off the ballot.
Go Romney 2012!
Just to be clear….
It makes no difference whether an incumbent is for amnesty or against amnesty, for “Cap and Trade” or against “Cap and Trade”, for unnecessary wars or against unnecessary wars, for torture or against torture, pro US Constitution or anti US Constitution… if they are GOP you support them. Right?
Is there anything that a GOP incumbent could do to cause them to lose your support?
If the Republican primary was limited to Republican voters, Lindsey Graham wouldn’t make the run off! It is time to put a stop to ‘open’ primaries!!
“Ok Ladies, the color today is Trotskyite Red!”
Looks like a 1980s Politburo Ladies Auxiliary pic. Which one is Mrs. Brezshnev, again?
Vote Smart. Vote Blue In 2014.
Come On, SCGOP Women! Stand Up For Your Rights! One Day, You’ll Wish You Had!
If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s intolerance.
