RS>>This same bunch of Texas republican state congresscritters will force
RS>>women to get a vaginal sonogram before they can get an abortion.
RS>>No exemptions for rape, incest or the health of the pregnant woman.
RS>>No word on how to *PAY* for it either.

 TR> Here's a good idea on "how to *PAY* for it":

 TR> You want an abortion? *YOU* pay for it! Not taxpayers, not
 TR> welfare....*YOU*!

 Since federal law bars the govt paying for abortions that's not
 a change.

 TR> And put a federal, state, and local tax on abortion fees of
 TR> over $100 each, PLUS the doctor's fees, and all abortions
 TR> MUST be performed in an accredited hospital, with a minimum
 TR> three-day stay under a doctor's care!

 IOW, dictate medicine for social engineering. Next you will call
 for death panels.

 TR> There is about a $15,000 cost for an abortion right there,
 TR> coming out of the pocket of the person's (and the father's
 TR> if he can be identified) own pocket!

 Or the insurance carrier. Or do you want to control that private
 insurance companies also?

 BTW, I am a pro-life Catholic, just annoyed at your attempts to
 play god.

 TR> If the girl is under 18, her parents pay the bill.

 TR> Watch how fast girls suddenly discover all the methods of
 TR> birth control, and how effective a birth control abstinence
 TR> is!

 Except that abstinance only seems to fail quite regularly.

RS>>Walker and his cronies are also saying they want to hire bounty hunters to
RS>>go kidnap state senators that are still out of state, and legally can't be
RS>>touched.

 TR> The only thing wrong with whats going on now is that Walker
 TR> hasn't gotten with the republican senators and told them to
 TR> pass legislation, and he, Walker, sign it into law by
 TR> Executive Order!

 Which would violate the state constitution. But you have no more
 respect for the state constitution than the federal
 constitution, do you.

RS>>In Ohio, Kasich(sp?) is trying to destroy *ALL* public worker unions,

RS>>inclduing the unions of the police he called "idiots" when they *GASP*
RS>>wanted him to follow the same laws of the road the rest of those in Ohio
RS>>do.

 TR> Police have no business with any unions. Nor do any other
 TR> public employees

 It's a constitutional right.

 RS>>Abortion restrictions and gay-marriages?

 TR> See the above ideas for the abortions. As for *gay
 TR> marraige*? I said once a long time ago here in Fido, and
 TR> I'll say it again. It isn't about *equal rights*.....they
 TR> (the homosexuals) already have all the rights everyone else
 TR> have.

 Well, at least we know you are *NOT* a libertarian. The right to
 run their own lives applies here. IOW, MYOB.

 TR> Its about money....and always has been about money. All the
 TR> same `income' potential of a real marraige between a man
 TR> and a woman. Its about recieving survivors benefits, etc
 TR> etc of the same sort as a beneficiary or surviving spouse
 TR> gets from the government.

 Now that is dumb. Homosexual couples already average higher
 income than heterosexual couples.

 And since they typically both work, and pay social security,
 they will actually lose benefits if they are married, as married
 couples, last I heard, had their social security cut if both
 collected.

 TR> It isn't about equal rights and never has been. Its about
 TR> adding a whole new `group' of individuals to an already
 TR> over-strained public trough.

 Since heterosexual couples are far more likely to get public
 assistance, that's more nonsense.

RS>>And Mike Huckabee, 2012 presidential hopeful and holier-than-thou
RS>>slimeball is the Charlie Sheen of republican politics.

RS>>Meanwhile Newt's scams continue.

 TR> Both of those guys just piss you right off, don't they?

 Well, Newt is a criminal, and Huckabee is both stupid and venal.

 TR> Actually, neither one would make a good president.

 True. You got one right.
