Really? You think forced abortions are on the way? Thanks for clearly indicating that you aren't just dumb; you're also crazy. Let me be clear. The government's purpose, in this regard, is to protect a woman's right to do as she wishes with her own body. Their purpose is not to force abortions or prevent them, but to allow women the choice. That's why we're called "pro-choice." Do you fucking get it yet?

I realized something...

If you think about it, giving human rights to what is basically just a cell at the point of conception is the most radical liberal position I could think of. I'm a progressive, and if I'm at fault for something its being too left on some issues. But giving rights to life to a cell is EXTREMELY left.

So far left that its right? Bizarre.

Reality would disagree..TYT. Center right...Is where we are at...

And we protestants for the most part have no problem with contraception,but respect how Catholics feel...Their Church institutions, should be able to functions as their beliefs dictate..:)

If so many people beleive that a persons body is their own and not the governments, why do so many people oppose legalizing all drugs

[Kristaps Bendiks]

"But the peoples don't understand. Smart peoples in government understands. Right? RIGHT?!!"

An that is really what peoples in power believes in. Part of "those small" peoples believes in that as well. Some of them... bootlickers.

STOP YOUR PROPAGANDA!

[SkilfulAle]

the issue (and only one i take from this) is that it does not state actual figures. 72% of how many? 100? 1000? and where? because stats such as these are great, but you need backing in solid figures beyond just percentages

Try actually reading what my comment said, you moron.

[sauerquint]

It's only a liberal position in your fevered imagination if we grant that that you could possibly know anything of what you 'think' are a liberals belief systems. Fox noise and Glen Beck have done well with you. Yes, 'they' are out to get you, and it's all a conspiracy to end America n your fantasy world of Glenbeckistan. The sane people look at people like you with scorn and disdain because we know that you are simply projecting your simple minded paranoid fantasy of what liberals stand for.

Who said that was the goal of Obamacare?

And who is "we"?

[codediporpal]

Oh, my god, how did you find out that the REAL goal of Obamacare was to force abortions on everybody? We've been found out!!
