Healthcare Reform = Elective Abortions?

[LatinRiteChristian]

Plain and simple... I DON'T WANT MY TAX DOLLARS PAYING FOR ABORTIONS OR ANY OTHER FORM OF CONTRACEPTION. Huckabee, I'm with you all the way. BTW, I'M A CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRAT WHO VOTED FOR OBAMA AND IS NOW REGRETTING HIS DECISION :(

[killawaid]

stupid idiot..

[MrLandreth]

@killawaid way to identify yourself lol

[dragonpat666]

i don't care to pay for a womens abortion, unless it is of a traumatic nature. pay for you own abortions!

[stme2008]

fallow god is to love it is simple! just because psycho right hates doesn't mean we all do not fallow what Jesus teaches. message of love funny wouldn't matter if abortion is in Bill or not repubs wont like it. these repubs do not fallow the book of Mathew or gods message of love. instead reduds want to let the poor suffer let the 1 million preemies die each year do to lack of healthcare pro life hypocrites!! god forgive them. I love as my bible teaches. please give to march of dimes thanks all

[epimondias]

@stme2008

ITS SPELLED FOLLOW! are you 12 years old? How could you possibly misspell that? I know its not a typo because A and O are on opposite ends of the keyboard.

[Fleefles]

If non-life threatening abortions are going to be taxpayer funded, so should vasectomies, vasectomie reversals, tubal ligations, tubal ligation reversals, sex changes, sexual stimulant drugs, depo provera shots, IUDS, cosmetic surgery (some people get very depressed over their body, which effects their health and career).

[kleppig]

should of course be lawyer, sorry... Please just think through what I wrote if you are republican. Should add that I dont hate the US, I actually just moved to NYC from Sweden but I never met an republican yet.

[kleppig]

Would it not have been better to pay for her abortion then? And pro-life, what a nice way of saying that you take away the womans right to her own body! But you are not that pro-life when it comes to poor people that get executed because they cant afford a good layer. Hypocrites!! /Daniel Jönsson

[Fleefles]

People get killed over obtaining crack and other hard drugs. Should we give out free crack because people are killing themselves over it? Also, it has been admitted in court that the numbers of women dying in "back alley abortions" was were greatly exaggerated.

And just because something is hard to do doesn't make it right. Some dude killed his disabled wite out of "compassion." Does that mean its okay because he didn't do it for fun?

[kleppig]

You Americans. Do you really think that ANY woman has an abortion for fun? Read your history!!! What happens when abortion is banned? Illegal abortions causing women to die! Because of less knowing republicans poor women don´t have the same choices for abortion as rich women! Because of this the woman might drop out of school and end up on welfare.

[longislandz]

I don't believe my tax money should go to pay for elective abortions. There is already a clause for funding for cases of incest, rape, and impending danger to mother. So I really don't see why I personally should help funding to kill babies ?

[ERNIE6274]

During the election in the debate, Mike Huckabee, said what the Lord has shown me..."Abortion is the Most Important Issue in America. I was on his campaign! Alan Keyes said this several years ago. See my video on youtube..."Healthcare Reform - Ernestine Standberry." Well, at least I was able to Vote.... for Ron Paul as a Writein! For someone who believes in voting the fact that Ron Paul was there was very important to me! International Prolife Federation

[BabeonToast]

Hypocritical men have no business telling women what they can and cannot do.

Look around the world, it isn't women abandoning children when they are already born.

[Fleefles]

Not just men are pro-life.

Do you think two fully consenting adult women who are related and love each other should be able to have sex? Should a woman be able to do hard drugs or be a prostitute? Should we be able to stop a woman if she's about to kill herself?

If you say no, then you believe in telling a woman what she can and cannot do with her body, and are a hypocritical, bigoted, close-minded, hateful woman-hater...according to your logic.

[migueltrevinocedillo]

im impressed that Huckabee's ideas are shot down just because he didnt win the election

who ever does this is an idiot, Obama is President and he won the election giving him the right to head a national debate, however what you people need to understand is that Obama did not get 100% of the vote and he doesnt get to decide everything

To be a debate their has to be more than one side and opinion, please stop treating Obama like he has a solution for everything

HE ISINT ALWASY RIGHT!!

[avp715]

ship your dead babies to my place; the pile in my basement isn't big enough to swim around in (yet...)

[treid100182]

FUNNY How Huckabee believes in Jesus Christ, but never got the whole "help those who are less fortunate thing." What a complete SELF-RIGHTEOUS DOUCHEBAG!!!!

This is why Republicans are going extinct. Not to mention the fact that they are owned by the insurance and defense industries.

[jtboll00]

Fuck YOU Fuckabee!! I dont want health care reform either but shut the fuck up with ya jesus bullshit already.. didnt get ya anywhere in the election so why the fuck would anyone care now FUCKabee

[elitebanktyranny]

Thank you, Mr. Hukabee, for alerting the people and trying to raise awareness.

Under the 9th and 10th amendments to the Constitution the power to decide upon issues regarding abortion is given to the states, and to the people. If the Federal Government does pass legislation that violates these rights I hope the states will finally decide to legally ignore it. Lots of hope...

[draconian139]

I don't think that abortions should be part of this bill for moral reasons. Namely that I'm opposed to late term abortions. Only one thing though, under its current form it would not provide for this except in cases of rape, incest, and danger to mother. Therefore the healthcare bill doesn't bother me or most Americans on this issue. If Huckabee's worried about what he says he should instead make sure the Hyde amendment is reinstated on a permanent basis instead of as a yearly rider.

[cromagnan]

I'm sooo glad Huckabutt LOST the primaries and did not have a real shot at becoming Prez, this guy is a true LOSER.

[ronpaulsucketh]

yah and Obama is a winner right? You know if Huckabee had the entire print AND news media kissing his ass and raising millions in secret funds for him, he may have had a chance.

He'll be back. You be damn sure of that.

[cromagnan]

Obama WON you dingleberry. Huckabee's results in the primaries....HE LOST. Don't you get it, nobody wants a LOSER running our country. If I want to see Huckabee, I'll turn on re-runs of Andy Griffith.

[ronpaulsucketh]

Did you read my comment? The only reason why Obama won is because the entire media (TV and Print) was consistently kissing his ass. The chance of an evangelical conservative receive that kind of attention is joke-worthy.

Huckabee '12

[cromagnan]

Huckabee had his shot. Please do support him, a sure fire way to get Obama back in the White House! Thank you for your support.

[elarson77]

You say so much and know so little.

[cromagnan]

That was lame

[youngwill1979]

Thats interesting that on Mike Huckabee's show he talks about Farrah Fawcett who was going to Germany to get medical care for cancer. BTW Germany has a "socialized medical" system.

[puttychiro]

great man, stand for what is right. the idiots that post some of these comments, have no education, no morals and more than likely no jobs.

[FrederickofAmerica]

hate speech. classy you ignorant hick

[cromagnan]

It's not "so called" you doofus. This guy reminds me of GOMER PYLE and what he has to say is a PILE of Crap. We need health insurance now! Those injured at work and caught up in the Workmans Comp SCAM have lost thier health insurance and thier income. We all pay when they go to the Emergency Room or doctor and cannot pay thier bill. This amounts to many many MILLIONS of dollars. How do you fix that HUCKABUTT?

[cromagnan]

Oh I see, how I spell is some how a factor in the Healthcare debate? NOT!

Your STOOOOPID

[cromagnan]

What looks stupid is your name. Harmless Goat? So you like farm animals then. Go back to Alabama you dingbat.

[ronpaulsucketh]

kick every illegal off of every government plan, kick them out of our prisions, and kick them out of our country!

[cromagnan]

I might not be a Huckabee fan, but I agree with you. This is AMERICA, we are Americans, if an American goes to Canada or any other country, they have to abide by thier laws. We need reform in that area as well.

[cjkallgren]

I agree that abortions should never be paid for by the government. That forces people who are by conscience are opposed to pay for a "murder" of another human being. That is not fair to the taxpayers or voters. It is included in this bill to pay for abortion in any trimester and should be removed.

[cjkallgren]

I don't want to be forced to pay for abortions out of my tax dollars and this is the feeling of ProLife and Catholic voters. If you want to choose to take the life of your innocent child, do it on your own dime. Don't charge me.

ProChoicers should donate to a separate fund if they want to pay for other's abortions. Don't force the rest of us!

[rakrobn]

That is a lie Fuckabee. He said he is against partial birth abortion with the exception of mother's life being in danger. The bill didn't have that so he voted against it. Moron.

[kerasea]

Allow me to adress you Mr. Huckabee. You are no better than any other slimy politician. You use Jesus to win votes but you're not fooling anyone. You don't care about aborted fetuses. You only care about your political career and running for president in 2012. Anything you do or say is for that purpose. You are not the type of christian that people should aspire to be. I don't respect you.

[Drahthaar422]

Do you know anything about Huckabee's political background? He got into politics because of abortion. Mike Huckabee is definitely sincere on the abortion issue. Read a few of his books, maybe you'll be a little more informed and a little less blind.

[wafflethug]

Nice Huckabee. Way to screw the whole US population for the sake of what, .02% of the popluation who choose to abort their child.

[IssuesAndJustice]

You facts are way off. Over 1 million abortions happen every year in the US on healthy babies just because of "choice". Google "HeresTheBlood" if you want to see what a 1st trimester abortion really looks like. Then tell me that it doesn't matter.

[caden311]

Protest will not accomplish much of anything. Think of something else.

[stoneman1975]

I've lost any and all respect for this douche.

[flayvah]

Until it can live on it's own, without machines, it is by definition a parasite.

[IssuesAndJustice]

Your statement makes no logical sense. Did you misspeak?

[cjkallgren]

So if you are on a submarine and depend on that for air, food and water, you are now subhuman and a parasite. Or if you are in the hospitol on life support, your life is expendable. The coldness of your logic is astonding. Newborns cannot live on there own either. They need the care of a mother. Are they also parasites?

[flayvah]

Yes. If you cannont breath on your own, you are BY DEFINITION a parasite. If you are on life support, you are a parasite adn your family should pull the plug. Not expendable, but no good taking up space and wasting money. Newborns depend on someone to feed them and change their diapers. That doesn't have to be the mother. However, a newborn can breath on their own. Therefore, they are no longer a parasite. It may sound cold, but it's the truth. Look up the defintion and we'll discuss.

[cjkallgren]

I don't have to look up a definition. I have a heart. I took care of my father for 9 and a half years. He fell and bled in the brain and was on life support completely for 6 weeks. We slowly weaned him and got PT so he could swallow again. He was never the same but he lived 1 and a half years more conscious and able to eat on his own after therepy. Your responce is arrogant, you think yourself more important that a weaker person. That is evil, by definition.

[flayvah]

Okay. So let me be clear. I'm not somebody who hasn't dealt with a situation that hurts. I too have had to make a decision that might not "feel right" but was the right choice. Did your father live with you? Or did he reside in a hospital?  Did you pay for his care? I personally have a living will that states I do not want to be on life support, so as not to be a drain on the economy. Please. Wake up and get real real. Your Polly Anna stance is one of the reasons this country is in trouble.

[ajpmathwiz]

And yet you want to deny others the right to make a different decision than you made. You don't want others to be able to use their own resources to purchase life sustaining care. You call others fools for valuing a close relative over their money.

[deadlyhotdog]

where are the white women at?

[jerrydoubleu]

pay for abortions now or for the raising and crimes of the unwanted later on.

[thomaserossi]

Spoken like a true fascist. That's exactly what the fascists said during the Progressive Era. Glad to know those ideas didn't die when the fascist did. Instead, they live on in you.

[cjkallgren]

Actually you are confused. Progressives were socialists who wanted to clear out the retirement homes by cutting short the live of old people and handycapped so they wouldn't drain the system. Obama is a socialist. His Health "care" bill cuts benifits for those over 70. This is facist at it's core.

[jerrydoubleu]

blah blah blah, it's now time for health care and not corporate slow murder of the unprofitable.

[FrederickofAmerica]

you are an ignorant idiot. i cannot wait for you people to die off

[Megamediaplex]

Hi everyone! Register for my new website!

[gtwarstar]

I like Huckabee but I just can't agree with his view on abortion. The system as far as abortion is perfect the way it is now. If a girl gets knocked up and she wants an abortion go pay for your mistake and get an abortion. Our government needs to focus on Birth Control and education about sex. If the girls and boys were on birthcontrol to begin with we woulden't have the issue to begin with. I agree that I dont want to help pay for a girl to get an abortion thow. Its a elective procedure.

[Loathomar]

I would agree for not paying for Elective abortions, where the women willing had sex and the unborn child does not endanger the life of the woman. Though, this is always such a polarizing issue, the "pro-life" are not willing to allow abortions in the cases of rape or when the unborn child is endanger the life of the woman, which I think is BS. While, I do support a woman's right to choice, if it is a life style choose then would agree that should not be paid for by the government.

[Loathomar]

Though, on a pure monitory question I believe it is cheaper to abort the child then it is to provide health care for an unborn child from conception to birth. That being said, I still don't think that Elective Abortions should be covered, if for no other reason then to stop the abusive of Abortions as the world worst form of birth control.

[JimexJimex]

I just skim through the pages of the health care reform bill.

On which page does it mention abortion, Mr. Hucklabee?

[socalkickboxer]

Mike Huckabee and the Republicans are idiots.......yes deny 400 million people from getting affordable healthcare because 4,000 people want to get abortions............i will be sure to celebrate all abortions for now on

[SucceedsAtWill]

hey dumb fuck, my health care is quite affordable BECAUSE I HAVE A JOB....and there is 306 million in this country not 400 mil. you level of being informed is EXACTLY why you should be left to die in a puddle. get a job and take care of yourself...start with a GED

[DigitalAquarius]

Oh here we go.

Lets deny americans heatlh reform because you nutcases are hell bent on taking away a womans choice of what to do with her body!!!

Do you realize how ridiculous you are!?

You people are the real monsters.

[SucceedsAtWill]

if you are pregnant there is TWO bodies.

maybe you should just chill out on being a ragin whore and buy some condoms?

[rakrobn]

Right wing nuts are against condoms. It's against God's law.

[SucceedsAtWill]

theres you problem idiot. liberals are more prejudice than any conservative. i am a conservative and for contraception as is 95% of the party. get a clue, you will fail miserably in 2010 because of the mentality of your party.

[jacksjohnny]

There is no such thing as pro choice. How can you have a choice to murder your own child? The law may make it legal but it is not moral. The Fifth Commandment states, " Thou shall not kill". This applies to the born and unborn-no ifs no buts. We are answerable to God. The child has the right to life. A womans body is the property of God. It is time to think about God in this matter. The abortion clinics are the new concentration camps. Abortion is an abomination. It is the work of Satan.

[animateclay]

If you can control how your baby moves inside your body - I'll agree that an un-born baby is part of "your" body. It is as far as I can tell inside your body, but it's not part of you. It has it's own mind and body, connected through a cord. It's like saying your poop is part of "your body". How dumb is that?

[rakrobn]

Dumbass, have you ever heard of involuntary control? Your heart is not under your control, is it still a part of your body? Idiot. Are you saying your poop is a separate living thing?

[ajpmathwiz]

Poop isn't even made of cells. It's what's left after all recoverable nutrients have been extracted from your food, after it's been liquefied.

[rakrobn]

Animateclay would probably like to give rights to poop as well. So I guess dumping a log in the toilet is reckless abandonment and neglect for him. He's pro-poop life.

[burntonion05]

I like abortion. I just like to kill people. I usually just shoot them but abortion will do. Giddy up

[dnlchisholm]

The Democrats certainly did make some huge mistakes in the Massachusetts health care plan, but even still it's important to realize that there are huge differences between Obama's plan and the Massachusetts plan.

Massachusetts doesn't have a government-run system like Obama and his friends in congress are promoting.

[SuPzification]

So true..liberals love animals. I think they hate human life because they are stupid parents. They find it easier to pet a cat or save a dog then to teach their children values. Get on the pill, grow your hair to your waist, wear your pants to your knees...whatever. Maybe there should be a law that liberals cannot have children. It would make for a better world.IDIOT LIBERALS!!

Huc

[AmericanAvenger1]

There is no reason on earth why our tax dollars should go to fund abortions!!! Liberals always rally to save animals, yet they want abortion on demand! I love animals too, but the life of a human is always more valuable.

[Jediindy]

please Huckabee 2012!!!

[Tmontagora]

There's no such thing as a pro abortion person, There's pro life with pro choice and anti choice. Then a third category of people who really don't give a crap about the arguments of either side and would rather see those people shut up for once instead of ranting all the time.

[joegully]

we all with you Gov. Huckabee

[boots8709]

This seems "fishy"! WHITE HOUSE! RESPOND TO THE FISH EXTREMIST!

[Speegs23]

Time for civil disobedience, a refusal to pay income tax in 2010. People have to throw down the gauntlet and take a stand.

[mrstiggywinkle2007]

We need Huckabee in the White House!!!!

Huckabee 2012!!!

[cromagnan]

Never Happen...Thank GOD.

[cemiami]

Great job Governor....we need you in '12!!!

[flakingnapstich]

No competent doctor would recommend abortion as a form of birth control. Things like the pill, condoms and even abstinence are far easier on the body.

Anyone using abortion as their regular form of birth control needs to have their head examined.

[Jediindy]

Great words Gov. Huckabee, God Bless.
