So, it's not OK to support abortions with taxpayer dollars...

[601Liberal]

but executing people with taxpayer dollars--which would cost way more money than any abortion, maybe ten abortions--is? I don't know how much an abortion cost, but I can't imagine being any close to the cost of an execution. Also, how hypocritical is it for the Republicans to harp about government coming between people and their doctors, but then they want to come between women and their doctors on a legal medical procedure? I even thought about the Terri Schiavo fiasco from a few years ago. That was a family decision, but yet the conservatives wiggled their way into a private matter.

1. what is fascinating is that many of these so-called "pro-lifers" (hereinafter referred

to as woman-hating pro-forced birthers) are pro-death penalty, and almost never anti-war. nary a peacemonger amoung them.

4. Well...you see adult women don't matter

younger women of childbearing age don't matter and criminals of course, don't matter. Young women AND young men in the military don't matter. It certainly DOES matter whose life you are going to be PRO about.

What does matter is older, Republican, white men in government.

9. "Abortions are bad because they kill innocent people" but Wars are good even though innocent people

are killed, because "'Freedom' isn't free."

10. So put in an amendment to not pay for viagra and cialis, and whatever else

promotes erections. But definitely pay for salt peter. Wonder how many of the men would complain about that?
