this does not track and very stupid. You are better than this Bors. I mean your liberal bias to make him out as some stupid backward cap wearing muscle boy is cute funny. But your logic and slam is just stupid.
My question is…when do we guys have rights? I got my “birth control taking” girlfriend pregnant in high school and she had an abortion, but I had no say, but had to pay. I look back and wish I could have met my kid but find solace in that it probably wasn’t mine. A year later, another guy got her pregnant and he wanted an abortion, but she refused and made his life a living hell. So again, why do we take fathers out of the equation? Don’t fathers have rights?
^Sooo… you demand the right to a life that is living hell? Actually, I agree that men’s rights are ignored. We should have the right to demand an abortion or opt out of the whole sordid mess. Young people should have access to discrete sterilization at no cost to them.
Now there is a fundamental question to pose, “Are women for breeding or just for the sexual comfort of men, making contraception and abortion necessary?” Don’t need bees to find the hidden mines in that landscape!
His hell made my passive decision easier to process. Although my first combat tour made me doubt the abortion was a good idea (dying with no kids etc), my family since then has brought me great joy being a dad. I think it is something we need to discuss as a society…what roles do fathers have?
No, but thats equality right there. Considering its a matter with her body she has to go through then the final decision is hers. But I´d choose to look at it this way – if she doesnt involve the “father” to a point then she is rather selfish and probably doesn´t love him.
One half of all abortions are female, do they have a choice? The question is,…. Who speaks for the baby? Who defends the defenseless. I am not anti-woman, I’m pro-baby.
So the Republicans, especially Lyin’ Ryan, want to protect a Fetus INSIDE the mother, but as soon as it pops out, it’s on it’s own… Yup, that’s the Republican way all right!
I want to know what penalties Ryan would invoke on women getting abortions, doctors providing them, and would fathers of aborted fetuses suffer any penalties. Several thousand years of man’s inhumanity to women, coupled with ongoing inhumanity to women, makes me, as a male, unqualified to make a decision regarding a woman’s personal health care choices. This is an IMPOSSIBLE issue for government in this current economy and social environment. Let’s make this a country where children who are already alive are loved, educated, loved, kept healthy, loved, and inspired. Give me 5 years of a nation like that, and I can start talking about intelligently drafted legislation on abortion. Btw, did I mention our children who are alive and out of the womb need love? Respectfully, C. If you are really bored, my extensive 20 page essay on this is still under Clay Bennett’s Oot 15 cartoon.
The answer is simple: “If you have no brain you have a right to live. If you have a brain you have no rights to your own body (unless of course you vote our way).” .
The war on women The Romney-Ryan ticket has accelerated the Republican war on women. Mitt Romney and his running mate, Paul Ryan, if elected, will set back women’s health and women’s rights to the 1950s. Since Romney became the Republican Party’s heir apparent, he has been pushing to shut down Planned Parenthood as well as to make abortion illegal. Romney endorses the 2012 Republican Party platform, which contains a Human Life Amendment, which bans abortions without exceptions for rape and incest. Try as they may to distance themselves from U.S. Rep. Todd Akin’s statements regarding “legitimate rape,” Romney and Ryan, by supporting the Republican Party platform, are endorsing his radical views. Ryan cosponsored numerous anti-women bills, including legislation that would have narrowed the definition of rape to “forcible rape.” Ryan supports the passage of “personhood” legislation that would ban abortion in all circumstances, as well as outlaw common types of birth control and in vitro fertilization.
I will NEVER support a platform that puts restrictions on this procedure. Unless someone has walked in our shoes … M.Y.O.B! This is a decision between a Family and their Doctor and other people’s religious beliefs and dogma have no business interfering in this event… you have no idea how difficult it is to go through something like this is by it’s self without having to put up with someone else’s opinions, judgments, and religious bias. If you don’t need an abortion, fine don’t have one; however, don’t tell me how to live my life and I hope your family will never have to go through this experience..
