Women should be thinking of world policies that affect America and not just their own abortion needs and BC. Thats how it's relevant..........if you are asleep and not paying attention we have soldiers dying everyday in the ME to make their government better..........is that working or do you and others just enjoy your comfy seat and computer as others die in the ME for our comfort here in America. Open borders are another cause of concern and illegal immigration. There's much more than just womens rights to free BC and abortion, women should be concerned about the rights of all people.
You don't see women on the right worrying about their BC is being taken away or they can't get another abortion all those things are not going away, worry about real issues for a change.
Abortion isn't a real issue?
Better tell that to your Republican legislators.........they are the ones who are wasting valuable legislative time and money on a "non issue".
Any functional person who is eligble to vote should have a bundle of reasons to not vote to re-elect obama. Why do you single out women?
The dems declared war on women when Obama's silence, follwoing hoffa's call to "take out the sons of 8itches", resounded from dale to glen as affirmation of disrespectful references toward women.
No, on a scientific level, a fertilized egg inside a woman is not a human life.
The presence of human DNA doesn't make something a living human being. If that were the case, every dead body in the cemetery would not be considered dead, but living. When people disconnect life-support machines from loved ones who are brain-dead in the hospital, they aren't murdering anyone. That person is already gone. And in the case of the fetus, that person doesn't yet exist.
But the woman does already exist. The woman isn't irresponsible, isn't stupid, isn't immoral. She knows what impact the pregnancy will have on her life, and on the lives of her family members. The majority of women who get abortions already have children. They value and love their children. They care about their children's future. It's not about convenience. It's about their lives. I don't understand how you can talk about compassion and the sanctity of life, and have so little regard for the women and their families.
================================================== =============================
Your right DNA doesn't make something "living". It does make it human.
Scientifically what makes something "living" are:
Cell structure: Does an embryo have cells? yes
Organization: Does it have cells that organize themselves for a specific purpose? yes
Reproduction: Does it's cells reproduce? yes
Growth: Does it grow? yes
Metabolism: Does it use nutrition for energy to perform the growth, organization and reproduction? yes
Irritability: Does it respond to stimuli within it's environment? yes
Adaptation: Does it attempt to adapt to changes in it's environment? yes
Does it meet all the standars of "life" that scientists say is nescessary to catagorize it as "livivng"? yes
Therefore, scientifically, an embryo is a human life. Sorry, I know that fact is so inconvenient.
Dead people in a cemetary are not living.... I hope.
And whether or not a woman is being irresponsible, stupid, or immoral is not for me to judge. But, I don't justify murder because another baby might make life more difficult on a woman.
That's where these right-wingers really fly off the rails. When they start to talk about how the Left is trying to turn this into a Muslim Sharia Law country, it's obvious that they're 100% insane.
Seriously, how crazy does that sound?
If anyone wants Sharia law in this country, it's the Right-wing with their darlings like Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and the rest of those NO-choice idiots. The anti-gay and anti-choice measures they always try to push forward are clearly signs that they want a Christian Sharia Law in America.
This is why I'm a Libertarian...I can't support Democrats and their Paternalism, and I certainly can't support the hypocrisy and insanity of the Republicans.
At least you do not support the two most corrupt parties...thank you

Here is how they do it. The muslim stuff is just another try.
Among the GOP base, there is constant harping about somebody else, some "other," who is Subversives. deliberately, assiduously and with malice aforethought subverting the Good, the True and the Beautiful: Commies. Socialists. Ragheads. Secular humanists. Blacks. ****. Feminazis. The list may change with the political needs of the moment, but they always seem to need a scapegoat to hate and fear.
You are very misinformed. There is no such thing as a "Christian Sharia Law."
But, we are threatened by the Islamization of America, which Michele Bachman has been fighting against. Unfortunately, it is the Democrat Party that seems to be embracing Islam, and they have planned a day of Islamic events at their convention in September.
It is the goal of Islam to convert America, and all of Western civilization, to Islam. "Civilzation Jihad" (infiltration) is the method they plan to use.
Please do some research. Islam is not our friend.
Michele Bachmann has been fighting against the infiltration of Islam and Sharia in the United Sates, and she and four other Congressmen sent a letter to the Attorneys General of several government agencies, among them, the Department of State, and the Department of Defense, calling for an investigation into the possible influence of foreign countries on U.S. foreign and domestic policies, because of the infliltration of Islam (spacifically, the Muslim Brotherhood) into the U.S. Government.
Michele Bachmann has not been fighting anything at all. She has just trying to increase her political standing. We need a closet to send these idiots to stand in. YOU ARE FOOL TO BELIEVE THIS STUFF!
She wants CHRISTIAN Sharia law, which is the same thing to those of us who are not so primitive to think that Christianity is somehow more evolved than Islam. When you want to take away abortion rights, rescind rights for gays and push religion on kids in public schools like Bachmann does, you're an advocate for Christian Sharia law.
Islam and Christianity are the same freaking thing. Both are primitive superstitions based on the myths told about some man and his imaginary friend from 1500+ years ago. If you believe in either, you're primitive and you really have no right to criticize a country for trying to enact religious law when this country does the exact same thing.
Just the fact that we have so many states banning gay marriage is a sign of the American Sharia law. To me, the ideas of Bachmann or Palin are no different than those of the Taliban. They want to take away a woman's right to choose what to do with her own body and force children to learn their silly superstitions in school. The very nature of religion is to brainwash children who don't know any better or to take advantage of people in times of crisis to force them to believe in that nonsense.

To bad your only worry is aborting children, women should have taken more responsibility to not getting pregnant. For some pregnancy does just happen, but that a small portion. There's other worries out there than just abortion and BC to bad the left only has to those two things to campaign on and thats all you can worry about. I for one see world policies and danger much more of a threat than worrying about someone having unprotected sex.
You are absolutely right!!!! This issue over abortion is crazy, especially in this day and age, with all the contraceptives out there, there should BE no issue of Abortion. It is stupid to get your self pregnant in the first place.
And to vote for a candidate on that one issue, to me is absurd and surely shows how stupid people are in this country, and it's no wonder this country is in the place it is right now.
Abortion will always be around, either legally or not, period. I don't approve of it either, but I also believe if one gets an abortion, that is between them and their God and none of my business.
I am so so so sick and tired of hearing, "it's the dems fault, it's the republican's fault"....when are people going to wake up and see, that both sides are corrupt...BOTH PARTIES are corrupt!!!!!!!
Nothing is going to change in this election...I've seen this going on for years, and each president gets worse and worse, and drives us further into debt. You chose a rich man to run on the Republican Ticket, the only good thing he has got going for him is Ryan...but will things change, yup, just a little, to thow some crumbs to Americans...however, the same story will go on and on, it never changes and never will...this country isn't run by our government, period and they got us running back and forth, like chickens with our heads cut off, hating each other's party....
We're broke, our social systems are broke, immigration is broke, they keep allocating money to these social systems and no one is making them accountable for where it is spent and how it is spent.
Boy, I'm telling you this, I'm going in that voting booth this year, and I'm voting INDEPENDENT right across the board, just to send a message to our corrupt government...even if we're lucky enough to have a good candidate run, they sabotage that person with lies and money.
I shake my head at the stupidity of the American Public...when are any of you going to wake up and smell the roses, can't you actually see how corrupt we are and have become?
Oh and 3~Shepherds, this post was not directed at you, what you said about abortion triggered this post. I cannot believe there are responsible people out there who will vote for a candidate, simply b/c they do or do not belive in abortion. Or because the candidate is a woman?????????????????????????????? Unbelievable. Honestly, last election, I actually heard college grads, with their Masters state, "I'm voting b/c she's a woman?????????????" Good God?
