If combat means living in a ditch, females have biological problems staying in a ditch for 30 days because they get infections... Males are biologically driven to go out and hunt giraffes.

Gingrich first backed the concept in 1993, I am for people, individuals - exactly like automobile insurance - individuals having health insurance and being required to have health insurance.
