It's really too bad there are these types out there because too many people listen to their incorrect statements & that's how you get populations of people who believe utter nonsense & the IQ level just keeps going down & down.

that's more due to the fact that she absorbed her "twin" while in the womb.

I can't stop laughing at the special kind of stupid it takes to come up with these thoughts.

I need to know more about hormonal birth control. It sounds like the overall goal is to prevent pregnancy, not to prevent creation of life. If I had magic vision and saw my sperm just fertilized an egg in a partner taking HBC, my feeling would be to do everything possible at that point to give life fair chance. I'm kinda freaking it this could have happened. Need support group

Follow up to my freak out. Seems the rationalization is more zygotes are killed from natural processes than the few if any while on HBC.

Instead of responding to each and everyone of these, its easier to say that atleast 2 are jokes take out of context and a couple of the others are one sentence taken out of a 15 minute debate. the biden J-O-B-S one shouldnt even be on this list. It doesnt make your point.

Not even sure why the Clinton quote is here either, are YOU saying black people dont watch the same news as everyone else ? Or are YOU saying that he is saying black people arent ordinary ?

They dont, but when some people dont have an argument, they deflect.

Has anyone tried getting in touch with her husband?

Then you need to do your own research.
It's really not that difficult if you look for actual facts.
