Hey "pro-lifers"
If my tax dollars go to fund wars, land mines, and cluster bombs; then your tax dollars can fund abortions and contraceptives.
Get over it, that's what you told us. Remember?

3. While I agree, we aren't funding abortions but we are funding war.
And women are still told to 'get over it".

7. Bingo. Why don't people see that the Stupak Amendment was used as a distraction to get both sides riled up so that they wouldn't notice the myriad ways in which health insurance reform is going to screw us all?

5. I've been meaning to post this exact same thought. In my time-wasting response to the "I don't want to pay for___________________, (Insert "health care of some loser, immigrant, Muslim, etc.," "abortions," "smutty so-called art," "godless public education," etc.) I have always written that I don't want to pay for an overinflated military budget used to fund pointless weapons, wars of choice, war profiteers, etc. I've always been curious as to why this is so seldom a point I see made by other progressives.
