  • only congress person who gets any work done! my hat is off to you! Unlike others, you deserve every penny you get! Thank you

  • Why is Britney in suggestions?

  • Wow congresswoman speier laid the smackdown! Pow!

  • Hmmm...Rep Jackie, let's have a little biology lesson here...the only thing that moves from the vagina to the cervix is a ....umm...well...its not a baby! Unless the baby is all grown up and is consumating his marriage! This lady is laughable and she's trying to be so profound! She is profound alright! Profoundly dumb! If basic biology evades her ...its no wonder she can't figure out people don't like killing babies with their tax money.

  • @lorahubbel Uh, that was her point - that's not normal or healthy when the baby moves there. i.e., her life was in danger. You do realize having a baby isn't so easy, right?

  • @lorahubbel She meant the fetus had went from the uterus to the cervix, which is not where it should be. It was not only late in the session for that day, judging by the 11:33PM EST time indication and they start at 9a or so, early in the morning. Not only that, but the person before her had just read about the entire Dilation and Evacuation procedure where the fetus is not intact. While making it seem like this was done without any thought. She was upset. Imagine how you would feel in that case

  • @lorahubbel And for the last time, The 1976 Hyde Amendment that has been renewed every year for 35 years, states that no taxpayer funding goes to abortion except in the case of rape, incest or LIFE OF THE MOTHER IN DANGER. The last one was Rep. Speier's case.

    The PPs that do abortion only offer abortion services, those are funded by PRIVATE Donations and the woman paying for it with HER MONEY, not yours, hers. To suggest that women get a convenience abortion for free is very deceitful.

  • @lorahubbel WOW.....YOU ARE SO IGNORANT. LEARN WHAT STAGE A FETUS IS CONSIDERED A BABY. WE HAVE A LAW ALREADY THAT HAS GIVEN WOMEN THE RIGHTS RE: ABORTIONS. DONE! TAKING RIGHTS AWAY WILL ONLY END UP WITH WOMEN IN TERRIBLE PLACES FOR PROCEDURES, THEIR LIFES AT EVEN MORE RISK AS IT WAS BEFORE THESES RIGHTS LONG AGO. WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENS TO UNWANTED BIRTHS? WOW...SO SO SO MUCH IGNORANCE . WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? TALK ABOUT DUMB! WE NEED MORE WELFARE BABIES, RIGHT?

  • Jesus sure wouldn't be doing all the hating and bullshitting going on. He wouldn't cut care to women and children, he wouldn't like unfair wages, hypocrites, or these coke sniffing earth-killing birthers who whip all the poor and ignorant into these stupid, profit minded haters debates. I see a lot of retro-active abortions He'd probably pay for himself.

  • Jackie Speier couldn't even get the anatomy correct in her stupid stunt.

    Rep. Speier, you were not on an episode of Dr. Phil, how dare you get up there and feign outrage. You are a complete disgrace! Conduct yourself with a little dignity, go look it up.

  • I would rather be a dead fetus than be brought into a world where I am not wanted, where I am blamed for being another mouth to feed, where I am abused, where I will only be an outlet for frustration.

  • She didn't have a "procedure," she killed her baby. At least she was right when she said she lost her baby, because no one asks a pregnant woman, "so, how is the fetus growing? How is that little bundle of tissue doing?" We all know it is a baby, and at least she had the guts to call the child a baby, and not one of the euphemisms of the pro-abortion lobby.

    And she was right in that Planned Parenthood does have a legal right to operate, but it has no right to use tax dollars to kill babies.

  • @travisreems I don't think you know the whole story. The fetus was already dead, it slipped out of the uterus and was lodged somewhere it wasn't supposed to be and thus died, it was two months into gestation, and thus labor could not be induced to deliver the dead baby like it would have been done in later months. Jackie's husband at the time was a physician, and while they did everything they could to save the fetus, her husband informed her it was dead and had to be taken out.

  • @travisreems Also that pregnancy was a 'wanted' pregnancy, this is why the death of the fetus was such a tragedy to her, but due to it's age, the emergency abortion was the only way to get the dead fetus out and save Jackie's health, it could not naturally leave her body on it's own.

  • this woman has killed a child and the doctor who presided over her ABORTION should be in jail

  • @sutonchef so you would rather have her doctor watch both the mother and baby die?

  • @sutonchef

    hey! you're a big dumb animal!!!

    lol jk

  • @taterfamine no you are a deceived  lost soul that has no conscience for what is right and wrong Be sure your sin will find you out. The Bible is Gods revelation to mankind and its warnings will save those who follow and receive them

  • @sutonchef and how am i a deceived soul that has no conscience for what is right and wrong?

  • Too much information, lady.

    Keep the workings of your vagina between you, your family, and your doctor. lol

    When females lose dignity, motherhood is compromised, children choose drugs as a substitute for affection, and a nation falls a part.

  • @nirbija aRIGHT ON

  • @sutonchef Cool. lol

  • Comment removed

  • Jackie Speier for President.

  • @WhirledSol President of what? Pussy?

  • @WhirledSol NO WAY! THIS BABY KILLER HAS NO CONSCIENCE AND IS NOT FIT  LEAD ANYONE ESPECIALLY CHILDREN

  • @WhirledSol DONT VOTE FOR THIS PERSON  SHE'S NOT ELECTABLE. THANK GOD

  • Planned Parenthood does NOT provide funding for abortions. That is done through private sectors and NGOs via the program. PP is needed by American women in all 50 states.

  • Hillary Clinton: "I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision"

    Margaret Sanger: "The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

    MS: "More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control."

    MS: "We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population,"

    MS: "The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds,"

  • You are very brave Rep. Speier. Thank you for sharing your story.

  • No doubt, the world is insane. At this very moment, a madman is killing his own people in the thousands. This madman has been preserved and propped up by Americans and Europeans for decades. What does the world do. Nothing but fret about oil prices and getting their own people out. Thus, there is plenty of time to discuss abortions and gay rights issues in America. A subject very important and close to the religious right of the American people. Let us hope somebody will help Libya.

    Margaret Sanger: "The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

  • @FreedomsReigning

    Oh, you mean like John Gibson on Fox News encouraging white people to have more babies?

  • @FreedomsReigning Still waiting on those citations. You keep posting these quotes by Sanger, none of which appear anywhere in her written work.  Any luck finding out who actually said them?

  • @lolaposen I concur. I also think that if women had equal if not greater socioeconomic power and representation in our government, this would never be an issue. Men, who can never get pregnant, have NO say on pregnancies or women's reproductive rights. How about we pass a bill to outlaw Viagra. Cause you know that would get these old, white, rich men's attention.

  • Some of you you sound so ignorant. While Rep. Speier does solely address abortion, that is not the only issue that is at hand. Are any of you aware that abortions account for only 3 % of the services that Planned Parenthood provides? If Planned Parenthood is shut down, millions will lose their only healthcare. Thousand more will die from preventable and treatable diseases for which Planned Parenthood offers free or cheap testing and treatment.

  • After reading these comments it seems as though Garn3240 really needs a life of his own.

  • Republican concern for life ends at birth. Just as long as a preacher tells them that they are the only moral people in the world, then they will endure wanton acts of immorality in their name, as long as an (R) is next to the name of the perpetrator.

  • If you're pro-life but anti health care, you're an idiot and devaluing the lives of those already born.

  • @jonathangeoffpark

    Unsafe abortion kills 70,000 women worldwide every year. It causes serious medical problems for an additional 8 million women. (source: Guttmacher Institute). In countries that ban the procedure, abortion is the leading cause of pregnancy-related death. In countries where abortion is legal, it is one of the least common causes of pregnancy-related death.

  • @jonathangeoffpark The current death rate in Africa per 100,000 abortions is twice the highest number you could claim you could find, so I'm guessing your research wasn't very thorough.

    Those statistics also leave out all the other damage from illegal abortion: infection, scarring, infertility...

    The abortion rate per 1000 women age 19-45 in 1973 was 16.3. In 2008 it was 19.6. It didn't increase to anywhere near the degree you claiming. Stop lying.

  • @GARN3240

    DNA only makes an instant person if you believe in magic. DNA is the very beginning of a developmental process that eventually results in a person.

    Even if an embryo is a person, it has no more right to live off another's body than I have a right to take a lobe of your liver, even if I'll die without it.

  • This isn't about babies. This is about men controlling women. Christian men controlling women because the Bible tells them that they're superior. I GUARANTEE that if men could become pregnant, we would never have this debate. It's an absolute disgrace to humanity.

    For the record, I don't support abortion. I support the woman's decision to make the best choice for her and her family.

  • @MolterFamily PP is a health care provider, and is bound by law to teach medically accurate information. This rules out about 99% of the ridiculous body of rhetoric about sex, contraception, and gender roles that is taught in school as "abstinence-only sex education."

    I can't, but the FBI and GAO can. PP keeps their abortion revenue stream completely separate from their general expenditures, and no executive has ever been convicted of financial fraud or mismanagement.

  • @MolterFamily

    What do you mean by "teach abstinence"? Planned Parenthood does inform those who seek information that it is an option and what its potential benefits and drawbacks are. PP is even better than many abstinence-only programs because they make clear exactly what abstinence is. Many teenagers falsely believe that oral, anal, or even pulling out constitute "abstinence."

    The GAO has thoroughly kept PP accountable for how they spend money. Abortions are in an entirely separate wing.

  • i agree with you Jackie, but you did raise a question: why aren't democrats filling amendments  to wipe out funding to Haliburton. or better yet, why not putting them (the "person" that the Haliburton corporation legally is) on the FBI's top ten most wanted criminals list?

  • Your right lady, what does your telling the story about murdering your own child have to do with anything. But no we do not have to support you are or anyone else murdering their babies.

    Ps we don't give free money to Halliburton, we purchase their services. Big difference you murderer of your own child.

  • @stoltzmans Your an idiot. Democratic Rep. "Jackie Speier made clear Friday that the procedure was not something she welcomed and was done because the baby was not going to survive."

  • @stoltzmans

    She didn't murder her child; her child was already dying. She needed the procedure because not all miscarriages complete on their own. An ill-informed opinion isn't worth the water it would take to flush it down the toilet.

  • So kiss my ass for assuming too much. Ha. She said va-jay-jay.

  • @MrBorisbadanoff don't be silly. there is no "right" to medical care. in the USA if the people want medical coverage for all, laws will be passed and a way to pay for it will be established.

    the law will ALSO STIPULATE the conditions under which free medical procedures will be approved AND which procedures will be covered.

    it appears that IN YOUR WORLD i would be able to get free surgery to make me taller and even better looking and more studly. is that MY right?

  • @cloudshe, just because you're a cheap prick, doesn't change the fact that health care is a RIGHT,not a PRIVILEGE. if only there was free surgery to make you more of a compassionate human being........NAHHHHHH, too far gone

  • @MrBorisbadanoff too bad your government-provided education failed to larn you the difference between a right and a privilege. there's always Google

    "free stuff for everyone" didn't work in the USSR and will never work here. pls don't confuse that with lack of compassion, how is it compassionate to wish a failed country on everyone? more free stuff? when we can afford it our system will provide, and we Still can have a prosperous society

  • @cloudshe it failed the same way the u.s. will fail. when you spend ridiculous sums of money on the military, and empire building as we seem to be doing in iraq and afghanistan(the soviets did the same stupid thing there), our economy will fail too.

  • @MrBorisbadanoff pls take note that the military is the only item in the budget that is specifically mentioned in the constitution, that is, we have a Right (there's that word again) to government provided protection from aggression.

    while spending on Defense has NOT increased in recent years, a lot of the stuff YOU apparently want (free medicine for all?) seems to be breaking the bank. your grasp of reality seems to be in doubt!

  • All of you Planned Parenthood supporters will just have to donate your own money towards Genocide. We'll just stand back and take notes as your sow your own destruction.

    Your days of lying to and destroying the people you hate are almost over. You blew it BIG TIME. You turned on your own neighbors and set yourself on a path towards your own destruction. I doubt I could even stop it at this point.

    Your only hope is to assist us in dismantling this eugenic operation called Family Planning.

  • @FreedomsReigning I hope you realize that the Title X revenue stream is different from the abortion revenue stream. This bill has nothing to do with the abortion revenue stream, just the contraception-cancer screenings stream. In fact, most reliable estimates as well as common sense indicate that the Pence amendment will increase demand for aboprtion as fewer women have access to contraception.

  • @FreedomsReigning You're an idiot and you don't know what the fuck you're talking about once again. Typical Conservative scum.

  • @R3ST0N I know exactly what I'm talking about.

    The problem is you can't afford to accept it because once I'm done exposing you trash you'll there will no nowhere left to run. You'll have no more lies to hide behind. Family Planning will be a thing of the past and all your best efforts to defend it will be used against you.

  • @FreedomsReigning No. Sorry but the revenue is not gonna stop abortion. Which means you're a retard. Go troll and be a keyboard warrior now, LMFAO. 

  • @FreedomsReigning

    The vague intentions of the precursors to Planned Parenthood have little to nothing to do with what Planned Parenthood's mission is today.

  • man I do not give a shit about social issues

  • The days of funneling taxpayer dollars to openly eugenic operations are almost over little leftists. By the time we're done with you you'll wish you never opened your humanity hating mouths in their defense.

    There's a reason that the same people who support Family Planning support The Global Warming Fraud, what they REALLY support is genocide. They're what are called Malthusians. Carbon taxation is what's called "rent taking" in the Malthusian dialect.

  • Hillary Clinton: "I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision"

    Margaret Sanger: "The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

    MS: "More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control."

    MS: "We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population,"

    MS: "The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds,"

  • @FreedomsReigning Margaret Sanger also thought that abortion was a "disgrace to civilization." (Women and the New Race, 1920). Does that mean that all anti-abortion activists like her are eugenicists?

    Also, please provide references for the above statements. I've read many articles by her and have never read anything advocating murder.

  • @FreedomsReigning And yet, the massive amount of money that American pro-life groups spend putting ads up around my city seems to indicate that they do care what I think.

    Also, are you able to argue my points? Do you have references? Maybe you shoulod think about your beliefs if you can't.

  • @FreedomsReigning You needed to spout such ignorance didn't you?

    An American stating that global warming is fraud goes on to show how the educational system here does blow compared to every other country in the world.

    How many GW studies have you read? Provide us a scientifically testable hypothesis to deny the facts of GW.

    Thank you for quite openly stating how scientifically ignorant you are.

    truly a waste of time.

  • @andrewlgm no, F.R. is a waste of brain matter

  • @andrewlgm You clearly don't understand the connection between pseudo science and eugenics.

    These people have already been exposed. In an industrialized society there's a connection between the cost of energy, production, and starvation. As food prices skyrocket, don't even try to blame anybody other than yourself and the lying genocidal trash who support this pseudo science. Your days of hiding behind partisan hate are almost over.

  • @FreedomsReigning global warming is a globally corroborated truth

    You can't deny GW because evidence clearly contradicts your position which is ignorant of scientific observation. deniers never read one research, much less write one.

    Ocean temperature is rising, ice is melting, temp-sensitive animals are dying, weather is becoming more unstable, CO2 levels r increasing, global temp is also rising, bodies of water r acidifying n vanishing across the planet, etc, etc.

    ur willfully ignorant.

  • @andrewlgm Even if you were right about any of that, the truth is that this planet turns into a garden as temperatures and CO2 levels rise. Carbon taxation is about applying a cost to everything that human beings use to sustain themselves. (Rent Taking) It's a lever that genocidal trash like you can ratchet up and down to cause poverty, disease and famine.

    Your agenda is already taking effect, and soon there won't be any more lies you can hide behind.

  • @FreedomsReigning do you really believe all of this insanity that you're spewing? I'm giving you facts. Proof that comes on a weekly basis from labs, scientists and observations from all across the planet.

    You're giving me conclusions from a disturbed mind. Genocidal trash? What does that mean? What a load of crap. Carbon taxation, a republican idea, is way to lower usage, and raise the feasibility of carbon alternatives. Hard at first, but once it kicks in, better for everyone.

  • @andrewlgm No. I'M GIVING YOU FACTS. Beyond that, I'm giving you cause and effect. It's a powerful weapon to free the minds of reasonable men.

    Is your only defense to call people insane? If you believe that reasonable people can't understand what I told you, then you ARE doomed. I don't give a damn about your pseudo science "facts". The Global Warming Fraud was brought to us by the same kind of people who founded this eugenic operation called : Planned Parenthood

    It's over.

  • @FreedomsReigning are you never going to stop? You are spewing out your near mentally disturbed nonsense hour after hour. I do know, that many Libertarians and.Tea party people are totally off the rocker. However, your stuff would even surprise a Tea Party person, if that person can read. Do you not realize, that the Libertarian and the Tea Party movement is a phenomena present only in the States?. Nowhere else in the world do you find such people. They are the laughing stock in Europe.

  • @FreedomsReigning I doubt it's in your power to determine if anything is really over (unless you're relative of divinity). Why are you so defensive about this topic? Planned Parenthood is not commanding anyone to take certain options with their life. It's a service. It's like saying, just because Walmart plays dirty does NOT mean they should be shut down. I simply just won't shop there. If enough people voluntarily do this, hey, they really might go sayonara. Same with Planned Parenthood.

  • @andrewlgm You might as well stop your efforts. I believe Freedomreigning is computer generated text and someone forgot to shut down the computer.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    Please stop using sock puppet accounts to thumb up your own crap. No matter how many hundreds of times you make a stupid comment, at least 2-4 are ready instantly to thumb it up. We're to believe that a cadre of people are WAITING for you to make a comment?

  • @shadownor I don't have any sock puppet accounts. Perhaps you should seek help? I suggest a tinfoil hat.

    If I did have sock puppet accounts I would portray myself as somebody like you. An idiot that can provide no counter point to the facts. All you can provide are personal attacks. The last thing you want to discuss is the truth of the modern eugenic agenda, because once people understand, the Margaret Sanger crowd will be looking for a rat hole to hide in.

    People are ready for the truth.

  • @FreedomsReigning After looking through pages of you bickering, I have seen no facts or evidence supporting your arguments. Obviously you have no idea what a fact really is.

  • @shadownor There's a much simpler explanation for why people give me thumbs up:

    "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."

    Guys like me don't need sock puppet accounts OR "thumbs up". There's nothing you can do to stop me short of violence. That's why certain political agendas MUST silence dissent. It's been the same long before the very idea of a "thumbs up" existed. It's not I that will destroy you. It's the truth. All I need is a pen.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    80% of the comments that you make have at least 2 thumbs before they are 5 minutes old. You are a liar and a fraud. You can't handle the truth and so you therefore need FAR more than a pen. I'm a software engineer and I can easily give myself 100+ thumbs.

  • @FreedomsReigning : "this planet turns into a garden as temperatures and CO2 levels rise. "

    This is so backward. What happens is what we see now: MUCH more rain, but much more desert as well, as the cycles are too violent for the rain to do any good for growing. Instead, it washes the topsoil into the sea.

    BTW, if you DO believe humans should be able to live "tax free" (with NO effort put toward the resources we use) then YOU are part of the problem!

  • @DestroyxMexx Wrong. The baby has its own DNA; it is a separate life. Her decision regarding the contents of her uterus is made when she allows ejaculation into her vagina. Don't want to get pregnant? Use a barrier, use the pill, use a spermicide, or don't have sex.

    BTW, the pro-slavery side dehumanized the slaves just as you dehumanize babies in order to assuage your natural guilt over endorsing their murder.

  • @GARN3240 What about a woman who is raped? Not her fault for not offering the assailant a condom.

    No doctor, scientist, will tell you a zygote is alive. It is estimated that a sexually active woman gets pregnant at least 4 times a year. The fertilized zygote doesn't attach to the uterine wall and passes during menstruation. Of the pregnancies that do not fail initially, up to 20% end in miscarriage.

    I am against late abortions because of NS dvlpmt.

    Abortion is private. A woman n her doctor.

  • @GARN3240 your side is against mandatory sex education in public schools, and isn't a big fan of contraceptives either

  • @DestroyxMexx We are ALL cells. 'Embryo' describes a human life. 'Fetus' describes a human life. 'Child' describes a human life. Abortion kills a human life. There is no way around this inconvenient fact.

  • @GARN3240

    Actually, according to OED (your own source), 'fetus' can mean both human and animal life. A balut is a fetus. Did you hear about the bleeding hearts in Liverpool who mourned a fetus for days only to discover it was actually a chicken? The fetus of an animal cannot be distinguished from that of a human by eye.

  • @DestroyxMexx Because unborn young are Volkswagens? Bullets? Bacon? Furniture? Novels?

    Unborn young what? What's she pregnant with?

    Parse it, hippie.

  • @DestroyxMexx You ignorant piece of shit, look in the Oxford English Dictionary (you know, the definitive reference for the English language). The word 'fetus' MEANS child. Idiot.

    As for welfare programs, they've done nothing but destroy the black family, enslaving generations. Get your head out of Marx's colon and think for yourself.

  • @GARN3240

    "The young of viviparous animals in the womb, and of oviparous animals in the egg, when fully developed."

    The Latin fetus means offspring. Both definitions are biological terms, neither of which implying the emotionally charged term "child." And yes, I got that directly from Oxford English Dictionary.

    The phrase "fully developed" is also telling. Would a first trimester embryo then be underdeveloped and thus not even a fetus?

  • The states finance killing babys with taxes. That's incredible. :(

  • @TheLarryDownes

    Finally, someone commenting on this video has some sense.

    That being said, of all the things to defund, I don't get why so much effort is being put into PP in particular. If we're trying to balance the budget, this is a drop in the bucket.

  • 1) Yes Planned Parenthood has the right to exist.

    2) That does not mean that it has the right to be supported by tax payers.

    If you support planned parenthood, then donate to them. But don't use the power of the state to force others at the point of a gun to support them. This is not just an issue Planned Parenthood, it goes for any charity that is currently supported by tax dollars. State run charity doesn't work and is ultimately immoral.

  • If you think this is a moral imperative to fund PP, for womens education, health care, and contraception, please listen to this. This woman was the DIRECTOR of Planned Parenthood, and really has no reason to lie or make things up.

    Abby Johnson Former Director Of Planned Parenthood

    listen on you tube  /watch?v = XwR57QZAy5A no spaces

    Public funds shouldn't prop up any private company through subsidies.period

  • @BlackJacx1 How could she work for PP not knowing what encompasses a late term abortion? 'm against late term abortions. Any abortion done after the fetus has developed a nervous system should be illegal. In my view a zygote is not a fetus and most certainly not a child. Different forms of abortion exist. PP does an excellent job at providing services to millions of people all over America, STD, cancer, HIV screenings n treatments. only 3% of visits deal w abortion (#'s from SFC).

  • @andrewlgm if you listen to the clip, she basically explains it.

    Abby Johnson Former Director Of Planned Parenthood

    listen on you tube /watch?v=XwR57QZAy5A

  • @BlackJacx1 Abby Johnson made up the story she told about her "epiphany." Look up Texas Monthly: "The Convert." She was about to be fired for negligence and instead resigned and got a media career. Sounds like a reliable source.

    Also, the main thing she "exposes" about PP in this video is that they give chemical abortions in order to improve women's access to abortion.

    Note that she doesn't say anything about use of Title X funds to fund abortion, which is actually the issue here.

  • @BlackJacx1 I listened to the whole video, like I said before, abortions comprise from 2% to 5% of PP services, it varies yearly, that data is readily available on their website, n other verifiable sources. To end a program that helps millions of people based on exaggerations and probable lies from one individual who had a "vision" n now prob makes money from it is absurd. IDK one woman who's had an abortion joyfully. Abortions will increase due to PP defunding. That's not hard to understand.

  • @andrewlgm Planned Parenthood will not, WILL NOT go away because of these cuts, I guarantee that if half the people on this issue that support them getting funding donated to support them directly, they would be even BETTER able to provide EVEN MORE services to whomever wanted it. But that is what needs to happen, because the government can't afford to support every non-profit in existence, just so people can get free "_ ". They need to cut everything deeply across the board to make any headway.

  • 1/3 (33%) of all the tax revenues in this country go to paying INTEREST ONLY on our debt, people need to face facts, and not try to hide behind the arguments of the past, and keep digging a hole assuming we will be able to get out someday.

    If EVERY dollar that was made in this country was paid toward the national debt, instead of buying food, insurance, utilities, salaries, ANY THING, it would still take 1 full year, to completely pay off our debt, if we could stop the interest for that year.

  • That of course wouldn't get us out of debt completely, just out of unsecured (ie Credit card debt), but not Social Security, Medicare, State Deficits, veterans benefits, federal pensions, or secured debt (financed home loans, etc), or any of the debt of citizens that would have been in default for a year.

    So hopefully that can give you some perspective on how much debt we are actually talking about

  • @BlackJacx1

    If it's cutting spending you're concerned with, be worried about them wasting so much effort into what amounts to a miniscule amount of the budget. The motivation behind this isn't fiscal; it's social. If they fought HALF this hard for SERIOUS budget cuts, we might actually get somewhere. But the GOP won't touch their white elephants (Medicare, Social Security, so-called "Defense" i.e. nation-building).

  • @XiaoGui17 If it's "miniscule" it shouldn't effect them that much. The fact is our country is being bled by a million paper cuts, and you have to start somewhere.

    I think the GOP and the DNC are both limp as far as fortitude on budget cuts, and I think it's a SHAME that the democratic super majorities didn't do ANYTHING to reduce our spending, not even Obamacare will.

    Now I would take almost any cuts that it would take, because it either happens now, or later... or it will just stop altogether.

  • @andrewlgm

    "I'm against late term abortions. Any abortion done after the fetus has developed a nervous system should be illegal."

    You do realize that the vast majority of late-term abortions (such as the one Speier described in this video) are done on fetuses that were wanted children but turned out to be hideously malformed, sometimes to the point of lacking the vital components of a functioning nervous system? Google "anencephaly," one of the most common reasons for late term abortions.

  • @XiaoGui17 you're absolutely right.

    I don't agree with late term abortions since the fetus is mostly formed and could survive outside the womb. I do know a few women who had late term abortions who live to regret it. Still, I do not like late term abortions, unless it's as you specified, most cases r due to malformation.

    But I do favor a woman's right to choose. It's ultimately a woman's body, her privacy, her personal decision.

    Thanks for keeping it real

  • PP won't go away.

    You people fighting pro or against the ethics of abortions are stupid; both dumb as a post, because it's beside the point

    Our countries financial future depends on us being able to pay off $14,166,382,000,000+interest, and right now we are going to ADD $1,400,000,000,000 THIS YEAR, "IF" Obama's proposed budget isn't wrong.

    We need to make start making cuts now, interest is going to kill US, and PP won't change that.

    So start with the things that can do it alone, and start NOW!

  • @BlackJacx1 I definitely agree with you on this one. instead of talking about abortion and senseless things that have already been dealt with 50 years ago, we should deal w reality. But it seems to me that both parties are unwilling to do anything substantial when it comes to solving problems. there may be nothing to save if they take too long... money is literally going down the drain w the wars, how r we ever going to get out of this without ending the wars?

  • @andrewlgm because war spending cuts can't do it all, and public welfare programs are a political mine field, which basically translates to political suicide. We are going to, by necessity, put everyone's holy cows on the alter, and at least sacrifice some; if not all of their federal budgets or subsidies... We can't talk about balancing a budget until then, and certainly can't get a REAL SURPLUS to actually PAY our debts. Obama said he was going to be a surgeon, and now we'll need a butcher.

  • My fourth grader has a better knowledge of the human reproduction system. You can not give birth to a child - that would be like Aliens - prenatal human life at 17 weeks is called a fetus, after birth, it's a baby - ok - maybe it was an emotional synonym - but generally, a fetus grows in the UTERUS - it only moves through the CERIX into the VAGINA at birth - not vice versa, again - maybe she's confused - definite need for an eduction overhaul in the US though - keep PP!

  • I want my tax dollars to go to Planned Parenthood! I believe it its

    mission and all the services it provides to the public. Planned Parenthood

    makes society better by helping women have more control over their

    lives. For many women, Planned Parenthood provides the only health care they

    have (Republicans won't even admit to this) I hope the Senate stops the Pence amendment in its tracks.

  • @Bluestatedad "I want my tax dollars to go to Planned Parenthood! Planned Parenthood provides the only health care they have "

    Your cruelty knows no bounds does it? That may be the sickest thing I've ever heard. You do understand that Family Planning was founded by eugenic trash and that their mission continues to this day?

  • @FreedomsReigning PP in its current incarnation provides indispensable services to women, most coming from poor families. Over 70% of PP's clients lie under the poverty line. Frget abortion n look at the educational services, the STD screenings, HIV prevention, contraceptives to prevent abortions. Every independent research center in the country asserts a 1/3 increase in unwanted pregnancies n abortions if PP dies off. The defunding will backfire.

  • @Bluestatedad

    If half the people who signed petitions for PP to receive tax funding were to put up a handful of their own money, this amendment wouldn't pose so much of a threat.

  • @DestroyxMexx

    Is a block of wood sculpture? Is a word a poem? Is a zygote a human?

  • How can Republicans decry government interference in the lives of the citizenry, while at the same time pushing for the most personal of invasions, into a woman's uterus?

  • @totaleclipse666 It's about something called "liberty". I'm a Libertarian BTW.

    Defending liberty starts by defending ALL life. Men have no say in their children being aborted. The child has no say about it either. In fact, I think if you asked all parties involved, the vote would be 2 to 1.

    We aren't even saying that abortions should be made illegal, but we ARE saying the days of funding openly eugenic operations like Family Planning are over.

    Donate your own money if you support it.

  • @FreedomsReigning Says:"We aren't even saying that abortions should be made illegal, but we ARE saying". Darn it. I did not realize there were two of you.

  • @FreedomsReigning as i said before; libertarianism, the ayn rand cult of permissable, acceptable, and respectable selfishness.

  • @MrBorisbadanoff If Ayn Rand had a cult, they would be called Objectivists. (not that I would expect you to know that)

    I know you're scared to death of what Ayn Rand would have to say on the subject of eugenics and genocide. She actually gives value to the individual over the collective. She's seen the horrors of your kind of utopia; an orgy of selflessness, sacrifice, and service.  She's watched as the men who preach this nonsense are served, and collect their sacrificial offerings.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    Ayn Rand also said that a fetus is not a person and it's ludicrous to attribute rights to it. Learn the stances of people you claim to speak for.

  • @DestroyxMexx

    Wow, FreedomsReigning sure does need a check up from the neck up. He's like Glenn Beck on steroids and LCD.

  • @DestroyxMexx

    /blush

  • @DestroyxMexx It's a nice little shell game they have going isn't it.

    Perhaps you can even convince people that it's true. (the ones who support eugenics) We fund everything accept scrambling brown skinned babies brains. That's something that tax money has NOTHING to do with right? In fact, it's the Republicans that fund that! It's those damn Republicans! They're racists! Get em!

  • Like I said. Tell all the lies you want. Call me anything you want. It's like water off a ducks back. This world isn't filled with self hating cowards like you. This world if filled with intelligent people who still care about their neighbors.

    The world is filled with people who recognize the evil that eugenics represents, and why Family Planning centers need to be abolished.

    Give your own money if you like seeing brown skinned babies killed. We'll just take notes.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    Let me get this strait: a women who might disagree with many of Sanger's views, but is still confronted with a dangerous pregnancy, and exercises her right to decide, is a eugenicist?

  • @shadownor If you support Family Planning, then yes, you support eugenics.

  • @FreedomsReigning Why don't you go and get pregnant and come back 9 month from now?

  • Eugenic trash? Time to tighten up that tinfoil hat. The black helicopters must be in the area. Please tell me that my plan has been in place since 1776. Please yell "WAKE UP SHEEPLE" I really detest what corporate controlled media is doing to people.

  • @DestroyxMexx Think what you want. In fact PLEASE scream your empty head off defending Family Planning. Someday you'll regret standing between us and this kind of Malthusian Crypto-eugenic trash. I'm trying to help you.

    You will lose. Take a look around you. Your denials just don't work anymore. Family Planning centers are done. Hide behind anything you like. Make every excuse you can think. It just doesn't matter anymore. People are beginning to understand.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    First you called them openly eugenic, then you called them crypto-eugenic. Make up your damn mind.

    Raving lunatics like you are an embarrassment to libertarians everywhere.

  • @XiaoGui17 Any Libertarian that stands with the Margaret Sanger crowd is not only an embarrassment to our party, but an embarrassment to the entire human race.

  • @FreedomsReigning

    What's the "Margaret Sanger crowd"?  If I use birth control pills, does that make me a member of the "Margaret Sanger crowd"? Am I forced to disagree with her on EVERY issue just because I disagree with some of her views?

  • @FreedomsReigning

    Even YOU agree with Margaret Sanger on some issues. Margaret Sanger was opposed to abortion, and so are you. I guess you must be part of the "Margaret Sanger crowd."

    "I assert that the hundreds of thousands of abortions performed in America each year are a disgrace to civilization." & "To each group we explained...that abortion was the wrong way—no matter how early it was performed it was taking life."

    -Margaret Sanger

  • @XiaoGui17 I have no doubt that Margaret Sanger would agree, "you're disgrace to the human race". She would also be thrilled to know you use birth control. Most Malthusian Eugnenicist trash understand that they're a disgrace. That's why they use euphemisms to hide behind rather than truth.

    They think collectively, and justify their actions in the belief that they serve "the greater good". Most of the worlds worst atrocities are committed by these kind of "disgraceful" people.

  • @FreedomsReigning There is absolutely no doubt, that you have got a big, big problem. For days on end you have talked about your Malthusian Eugenicists crap. I believe you have a serious sexual problem since you are constantly discussing material which should be a woman's issue only. Why do you not tell us awhat your problem is? Do you have a double PhD in female reproduction. Why do you not give us a summary of what it is all about? What ARE you trying to prove?

  • @DestroyxMexx Only a man as dishonest as you could try and put those words in my mouth. That's why you'll lose. You have no respect for the intelligence or discernment of others. You're like a child to me everybody around you.

  • @DestroyxMexx Hand out as many rubbers as you want. It won't save you from the truth. In fact, it reinforces the truth.

    Family Planning: "Be sure to wear your rubbers ya worthless little feeders. We wouldn't want you to accidentally give birth to a burden on society."

    

  • @FreedomsReigning Why do you not give us all a break for a few minutes? You would think the Tea party had unleashed one of their Talibans on us all.

  • You can tell all the stories you want about your abortions ladies. Nobody is saying that you have to commit suicide rather then terminate a pregnancy. We aren't even saying you can have one.

    What we're saying is that: We're done letting any tax money go to this openly eugenic operation called "Family Planning".

    Let private donors fund it. That way we can keep a record of who supports it. Soon everybody will understand, and we can have a solid record of who supports eugenics and genocide.

  • @FreedomsReigning I don't think you understand what eugenic means.

  • Hillary Clinton: "I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision"

    Margaret Sanger: "The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

    MS: "More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control."

    MS: "We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population,"

    MS: "The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds,"

  • @FreedomsReigning

    You realize that "eugenic" (adjective) and "eugenics" (noun) are not the same word, right? inkhat was right, you don't know what eugenic means.

  • Notice the desperation in the Pro-Abortion peoples posts? They're getting REALLY worried.

    Family planning is a eugenic operation operation from top to bottom. It was founded by eugenic trash, and it's funded by eugenic trash.

    There's a very good reason that the same people who support Family Planning also support the Global Warming Fraud, what they really support is GENOCIDE. They're called Malthusians. Carbon taxation is what's called "rent taking" in the Malthusian dialect.

  • @DestroyxMexx That's about some one-sided sh1t: every child has a father, yet the mother is the arbiter of life and death. Twisted.
