That is just idiotic dismissal of people to want any excuse to keep their preconceived ideas and react to issues rather than be challenged to think about them. Accusations like this is a smoke screen of attitude that every one sees but hides the fact that they have to clue what they are talking about.
To do battle, it would first help to understand the issues. Conservative talk shows have done very well at doing that as well as exposing the fallacies those who support this "Conservative war on women". Ask questions of those who make ridiculous statements. Point out how they have to resort to yet more angry rhetoric or personal attack on you as a defense mechanism. Fight the urge to tell them they're morons and give a calm presentation of the facts.
Start by asking them just WHAT rights they think Romney will "strip". Ask them to cite their source. Some of those "rights" might turn out to be a twisted idea that the government should be giving them some special entitlement, like "free" birth control goods and service. Asking questions often expose how little they understand the issues and expose more specifics on the "logic" they are using, thus giving you something to bite on in further rebuttals.
