Many of the "red" states have had legislature to pass laws that would have redefined rape, stop women from getting an abortion, and recently TEXAS enacted a law that mandates/REQUIRES a pregnant mother to view a sonogram before getting an abortion.
Oh the HORROR! They might have to view an image on a screen before deciding to KILL THEIR CHILD!

That's specific? What freedoms and what dependencies?

Are you sure you want to call out "Liberals" on this one?

In a revealing testament to the confused, human wreckage strewn across America in the wake of thirty-plus years' carpet-bombing by the right-wing noise machine, of poisonous AM talk radio all day and Fox News all night, of finger-pointing, race-baiting political ads, of welfare queen straw men and endless scapegoats of varying shades of brown, the New York Times today examines those struggling Middle Class Americans who collect government benefits in one hand and hold up a protest sign in the other, angrily warning the government to keep its hands off their Medicare.

The article is titled "Even Critics of Safety Net Increasingly Depend On It" and points out the stark disconnect between the anti-government rhetoric and the government-subsidized lives of many who spew it.
NYTimes: The Anti-Government Republican Base is Totally Dependent On Government | AlterNet

BTW...getting way off topic.

“You tell that bunch of mindless, brain-dead twerps — that they’re not going to get their birth control pills — and that’s all that will matter,” he said. “They’re going to vote for Obama on that alone, and that’s what they’re counting on.”

Santorum not
Santorum is indeed honest about his opposition. And such honesty is more than can be attributed to Salon, and the usual suspects — notably, ThinkProgress and The Huffington Post — who have lined up to join in with Carmon’s hysteria. The primary problem with the line that they have taken, that Santorum wishes to use the White House to impose his religious beliefs on a reluctant America, is that it is patently untrue. It demonstrates well the habitual liberal inability to distinguish between the personal and the governmental, and to acknowledge that one’s legal opinions can be separate from one’s moral convictions.

And people should listen to what some idiot comes up with immediately after sticking a finger down the throat, why?

No wonder your posts are so full of hyperbole.

How arrogant.
I don't have to speak for anyone, because they are speaking for themselves. Have you watched the news lately?

Not Vatican 1 Catholics. We are totally against it unless it is used for medical problems.

So you support the killing of unborn children. How "progressive" you must be.
