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.
