Repugs would rather have more abortions or food stamp babies than prevent unwanted pregnancies? wow there are some brains working there.
I suggest they be required to adopt all the unwanted pregnancies that result from their actions.
I have always been of this opinion, if the conservatives want to pretend like they are the moral compass for women, then instead of standing outside abortion clinics screaming "murderer" perhaps they with all their mercy should offer to help these women. That would never happen because that would require them to do more than just offer lip service, it would obligate them to walk the walk, it is much easier just to talk.
I agree, it's a shame the right are acting like such babies. The first thing they did coming in was force through 858 billion in spending, against the will of americans. Now the right won't make any meaningful cuts. Refuse to slash military spending which the dems have proposed, refuse to cut government handouts to corporations, absolutely disgusting.
I bet money your wrong about refusing to cut any military spending.
You have yet to see Paul Ryan's big deal today.
Will you apologize?

there are always families looking to adopt. I still can't believe there are so many of you that are for the killing of a life and not giving them the same chance you had.
No surprise here. No chance PP will be defunded unfortunately. I say that the GOP should stand firm on this and any other future cuts that are planned. Let them filibuster a budget over this. Maybe that will allow the public to get educated on just what their tax money is used for. Let's educate the public on everything about PP. And then move on to all the other nonsense that is funded by our government.
When is the last time Pelosi and the Dems even passed a budget???
The Democrats do not care about cutting spending and they certainly dont want to cut anything that is an "entitlement" type program. After all, who are their number one supporters? People who rely on the government. Theyve had their chance to get things done. Theyve done nothing but spend since theyve had majority. And here they are now, fighting tooth and nail to keep programs like this.
Common sense and basic education should be enough to deal with parenthood. And if you want an abortion, condoms, etc then pay for it yourself. Why should I have to pay for it?

The democrats only want to raise taxes and cut the military, and keep the gravy train flowing until we hit $20 trillion in debt.... and then raise taxes and cut the military some more.

Yes but they want the perfect baby. What happens to the babies that have special needs. How long do they stay in the system before they are adopted. And I'm sure some of them never are.
LOL...Silly forum Democrats....don't you know that filibustering the budget could force a Government shutdown....of which the blood on your hands will seal your 2012 aspirations? Don't you remember 1995 and the subsequent elections?
Democrats have NEVER been known for their extraordinary foresight.
And do you mean to tell me that abortion will prevent a woman from reliving her rape everyday for 9 months? Now, on anniversaries of her due date or the abortion she'll remember what might have been. 5 years later she'll think about how the kid would be ready for kindegarten. There will be other milestones as well.
Yes, she may think of that date. But, she will be thinking "Thank goodness I do not have to take care of a child that looks like my rapist. It would make me sick. I am SO GLAD I aborted."
That is what I would be thinking.
Who are you to project YOUR feelings on others? Have YOU ever been raped?
How about we just let individuals make their own decisions in this life? Who are YOU to force others to live by YOUR beliefs?

The military needs to be cut. We spend more money per year on defense than the next 20 top countries in the world combined.
Why do you believe it's a good thing that we are the new Roman Empire?

Never been raped have you? It is pretty easy to pass judgement when one hasn't been there, funny enough the Bible talks about judging does it not?
