    Re: Election Poll

    Are most Texans ashamed of Bush? Just out of curiosity? Or is he seen as a hero to most Texans? (or somewhere in the middle )

Also, they have no problem having Viagra being paid for by insurance companies, but when it comes to Birth Control and Contraception pills, it's a no-no. Birth Control pills etc, are not their ONLY purpose, many 'womanly' pills or contraceptions are taken as part of their health. Maybe if they payed attention in Biology class or took a Health course in high school, they would know this.

          Where does all of this Anti-Woman, keep Women in the home out of the workforce attitude come from? Certainly not mainstream society...

          Same reason the Catholic Church diminish and degrade the historical significance of Mary Magdalene... she was Jesus' confidant and most trusted advisor but the Church DENIED that in favor of their Men-Rule-All attitude.

          Also, I never brought up Abortion.. I understand being anti-Abortion from a pure Science and Life perspective... I don't think that is a 100% Religious matter. While I do disagree with some people's interpretation on when a Life actually begins--to which I think Science knows a lot more about that than Faith.

                watched it yesterday, it was a great program and highly recommended. Which candidate do you think the show favored? Intentionally or unintentionally I think it favored Romney.

                  I concur.

                  I am particularly elated that women are now actually forced out of the home and into the cold, harsh conditions of the working world, whether they like it or not. We have feminism to thank for this.

                  As for now, almost every single female must fight the same struggle that every man has been fighting for himself for decades. We have almost reached equality in this matter, so there's that.

                  Women should, in fact, thank mainstream society for making them equal.

                    "The only exception I have to have an abortion is in the case of the life of the mother," said Mourdock, the Tea Party-backed state treasurer. "I struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize life is that gift from God. I think that even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen."

                    The FUCK is wrong with these crazy people?

                    Republicans need a damn Intervention STAT. What happened to the separation between Church and State? Quit forcing your godamn fucking crazy spook story religions onto the rest of us.

                      Re: Election Poll

                      I know it might come as a shock since so many have moved on to "enlightenment", but this country has strong religious roots, and there is no such clause in the constitution nor did Thomas Jefferson mean to equate it with a freedom FROM religion when he addressed it in a letter to the church over 2 centuries ago. But back to the topic. Technically, a life does begin at conception, and the Senator has every right to voice his beliefs. CHRISTIANS believe that even horrid tragedies of unspeakable violence are allowed by God to happen, and that the outcome can be a blessing and it is not man's place to take innocent life. It doesn't automatically condone rape, and it's a brave position to take in today's PC world where man elevates himself to God. I don't see Roe V. Wade at risk of getting overturned because a couple of Senators voiced their ("unpopular") opinions. And an "embryo" actually can experience pain from an abortion as soon as the 2nd trimester, so let's not be too callous in damning others about expressing said beliefs. If life is just an accident, then it holds little to no worth and can be squashed if society or the state deems it. Even more significant, the percentage of abortions of pregnancies that have stemmed from rape is in the single percentile.

                      Why are you not similarly outraged that the President himself is content with letting a failed aborted baby die in a room, alone? Or even condones partial-birth abortions, which are the most heinous and inhumane of all?

                      I know you'll find kindred spirits here, so I should probably just bounce instead of facing the mountain of ridicule that others are bound to have since I took this stand. Flame away.

                      PS. Yes, the way he worded it did him no favors, but to expect every politician to believe just like you (and demonize him if he dare think differently and bring up the "separation" red herring) on all manners of life/existence is not the way to promote harmony.

                        I'm pretty sure most 'enlightened' women in the USA right now don't want people in Washington telling them what they should or shouldn't be able to do with their bodies. Strange isn't it, not that women would think so crazy like that, but what in the hell are they doing outside of the kitchen anyway?

                          Re: Election Poll

                          As for Roe v Wade getting overturned... that is a HIGH possibility. It all depends on who is President when the Supreme Court person gets elected. Supreme Court run things.... if most are Republicans who have no trouble going against Fairness and Equality where the Law is concerned.. then that may get overturned, it is always a possibility.

                          Personally I don't think any Law or Person should have the power to tell anyone what to do with their bodies if it doesn't infringe upon the rights of anyone else or harm anyone else. Problem is, both parties think that some Laws are OK to do that and some aren't--Logic would think that they should drop the stupid feud and merge and call it good. But NOPE, here we are, stalemate.

                          And Vin, there is a big difference between expecting every politician to think the way I do and doing what is Right in the name of Equality and Fairness for every American. I thought that was the point in Government? Not having bias's and discrimination towards other people but some don't see it that way...

                          Religion (god aka money, both are pretty much synonymous these days) has a funny way of running people doesn't it?

                            Why don't you comprehend that killing a baby inside a woman's body is the same as killing a baby outside a woman's body? It's a life and killing is against the law. Period.

                            If a person punches a pregnant lady in her stomach and the baby dies, that person goes to jail for life. But by your rational, if the woman decides to have an abortion and kill that same baby, its her right to do so?????
