    The thinking is that women intentionally give themselves miscarriages as a sort of do-it-yourself abortion. So this is to punish those women with no access to a safe and legal abortion. So they have to investigate every miscarriage. Cause we can afford that.

    thanks I will be contacting those dopes today to give them my thoughts on the matter. Don't live in GA but that kind of stupid crosses state lines.

    A woman with whom I am very close (not a wealthy woman) used to drive by a family planning clinic on her way to work everyday. One day she noticed a group of anti-abortionists picketing and harrassing women who were going in for services. She got out of her car and went up to the group of people harrassing the women and said, "I'm going into this clinic and I'm going to write them a check for $100.00 and I'm going to do this every time I see you here until you stop harrassing these women." She paid out several checks for $100.00 but in the long run she single-handedly drove off the offensive crowd!

    Thanks! It really was brave of her! I'm not afraid to speak my mind but I'm a chicken shit when it comes to confronting a hostile crowd!

    Rick Perry 8/2/2011

    "I can promise you when Bobby Jindal over on my eastern flank comes up with a new way to deliver health care because he is just a brilliant guy when it comes to policy issues dealing with health and human services, we'll go over there and snatch that in a minute and implement it in our state. When Brian Sandoval in Nevada comes up with a new way to deal with taxation and it will fit into our system in Texas we'll go put that in and try it. If some state decides to do something like pass a health care plan that, you know, is kind of like this Obama thing and it's a failure then we kind of go, 'ooh, we don't want to do that,' and that state may have been harmed by it, but the whole nation was not."

  • nice try, Woot man.

    Rick Perry is a disaster and so is his lipstick on a pig attempt to make it look like Texas isn't about to implode.

    He's just another Neo-Con who's trying to wring one last drop of blood out of the poor before the revolution begins.

    You want to live in a place like that? Please move to Texas and join that cessation movement.

    That's an awesome story. I'd consider doing the same except... I don't have a spare $100! Bummer.

    Well luckily there's a beach in Texas. It's kinda oil-soaked and a lot of dead animals wash up on it, but hey... Woot!

    I really do get a kick out of how you can't defend a single one of this failures (and there are a lot) and deflect with poor attempts at comedy.

    We'll wait 'til your daughter is knocked up at 18. Then we'll see how you feel. :cry:

    That sounds to me like a personal attack.
    Check yourself.
  • That sounds to me like a personal attack.
    Check yourself.

    No, it's just being realistic.

    You support someone who intentionally hides birth control information from teens. Don't see it as a problem because, as you said, it's not affected you. We'll see if you feel the same way when it has.

    See, I talk about how gay issues affect me personally and my family. You complain that I talk about "gay" stuff too much. We'll see if you feel the same way when bad social policies start to affect your life.

    Let's say one of your kids grows up and is gay... will you still feel the same way when those laws Perry supports starts to hurt your own family?

    I sure hope not. I think you're misguided but you don't actually seem like a bad guy at all. But if you can dish it out, you're going to have to learn how to take it.

    Good...more debate over a candidate's stance on sex ed, abortion and evolution. Thanks for biting on the distraction while we've been driven to the brink of fiscal collapse.

    don't you know that these are the only issues that you can run on in some states?

    I'm pro-choice, but would never vote for an elected official based on their stance. Most people aren't humble enough to admit that, given our lack of knowledge on the nature of life, both sides of the issue have a valid argument. We drive ourselves crazy with philosophical debates while our economic foundation quakes.

    for all of the reasons i have given ad nauseum in other threads i am against the death penalty in all cases.
    so what is your point?

    the only reason that fetus people are defending is innocent is because it has not been out of the womb and has not had a chance to mess anything up or do something to become guilty... we are imperfect, remember? so it's gonna be guilty of something at some point...

    More than 1 million jobs have been added to nonfarm payrolls in Texas since Perry took office.
