"HUD May Not Be Around Later": And the Republicans Wonder Why They Have a Problem with Women?

Former Governor Romney is quoted as recently suggesting that HUD may not be around if he should get elected (WaPo  story HERE). 

I am sure his dad understood who benefited from HUD rental assistance programs, but appears that his son either doesn't know or doesn't care.   

To help, I dug out some details on the sex of heads of households in HUD rental assistance programs from the most recent HUD Annual Fair Housing report HERE. 

As picture pasted below shows, women in 2010 represented nearly 3 out of 4 heads of households in HUD rental assistance programs, some 3.2 million women heads of households. 

And the Republicans wonder why they have a problem with women?
