'If Judd decides to challenge Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell for his Senate seat next year, Republicans and their well-funded super PAC allies have warned that Kentuckians will see and hear these comments over and over again on television and the radio.
...
- On fathers giving daughters away at weddings: “To this day, a common vestige of male dominion over a woman’s reproductive status is her father ‘giving’ away her away to her husband at their wedding, and the ongoing practice of women giving up their last names in order to assume the name of their husband’s families, into which they have effectively been traded.”
...
- On men: “Throughout history, men have tried to control the means of reproduction, which means trying to control woman. This president is a modern day Attila the Hun.”

Ashley Judd was raised by a mother who engaged in paternity fraud (Mamma Judd had another man believe he was Wynona's dad, but he was not. Wynona Judd is Ashley's sister). I don't think any of the Judds value or respect men, fatherhood or motherhood.

Anyone who values men, fatherhood, motherhood, fetuses and children should not want her representing them.
