Henry Payne for August 22, 2013

No comments from the lefties. I am surprised.

Boorish behavior is not the same as misogynistic policies.

So…it’s just fine to see and treat women as nothing more than sex objects as long as you don’t interfere with her right to an abortion?

The actions of a couple of Dems. is not the platform of the party unlike the Republicant platform which attacks women and their rights.

As a liberal, but nowhere near being a socialist, I will speak up to silence the conservatives. Mr. Weiner is sick. Having had his dirty laundry (literally) aired all over TV and internet, he continued his behavior. This is a sign of mental illness, and it is sad that he is being enabled. It shouldn’t matter in the long run, as it appears his chances of winning (among Democratic voters) are small.

Mr. Spitzer was one of the few government officials willing to prosecute white-collar crime, and did a good job of it. I would have really liked to have seen what he would have done when Wall Street crashed the economy; I am quite sure things would be very different today if he was still in office when that occurred.

He hired prostitutes. While it is true and very unfortunate that a number of prostitutes are forced into the “profession”, they are usually people of minimal means and have made poor decisions about the people with whom they associate. However, if you can demand, and get, $1000 per “encounter”, you are not worried about a pimp-thug beating the living crap out of you for minor infractions. Those women do it because they are willing to do so for the income it brings. Same with Sen. David Vitter, who—for those who are counting—did not resign while committing the same “offense”.

However, these are isolated cases, and the laws restricting access to birth control, true sex education, alternatives for military women who have been assaulted, and, yes, abortion are common in almost every Republican-controlled state house and in the congressional Republican caucus.

I’ll say it again: if you have never been in the position of having to decide if you want/need an abortion, you have no frame of reference. I trust the women to decide the issue much more than men. If you can’t “walk a mile in their shoes”, you ought to stay out of it.

Since Payne can’t tell the difference between anti-women policies and the personal behavior of a politician, he’s earned the Dumb(o) award:

The hypocrisy from the right is positively amazing, from the “character” of good old Newt Gingrich honoring his wives, to all the legislators trying to ban women’s rights, usually with anti-Constitutional intent for theocracy in America, narrow minded morons don’t own mirrors?

clearly if even one individual expresses a negative behavior it condemns a movement

I nominate all ovaries have their eggs stripped out and children grown in labs, therefor we can mitigate the nearly 1/4-1/3 of all pregnancies that end in miscarriage. Human biology clearly discriminates against humans

De-funding Planned Parenthood, where a lot of go for health care, not including abortion.

Failure to vote for Lilly Ledbeder. Look it up.

There are more but, you can educate yourself from here. Today’s lesson is done.You’re welcome.
