Hey Lurkers,
« on: May 25, 2011, 02:22:20 PM »
How come, in the name of "perspective," we're supposed to view the "horrors of war" with images of dead Iraqis and flag-draped coffins...

...BUT...

...you people lose your tiny ****ing minds if a state requires a woman to undergo a sonogram prior to an abortion?

TX Gov. Perry Signs Abortion Sonogram Guilt Trip Law

If the Republican Party is supposed to be the champion of individual liberties, personal freedom, and limited governmental intrusion, can someone please explain why Republican Governor Rick Perry of Texas has just signed a bill that orders women to be humiliated and degraded with a huge government-sponsored guilt trip orchestrated by religious fanatics before being allowed to undergo a legal medical procedure?

Just thought I'd ask.

I don't expect you to have the balls to answer...but I thought I'd ask.

According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Skins would have their hide if they ever responded over here, Sarge.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

I agree. F'n goons.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

You have to have an ultrasound before a lot of medical procedures. If it's really just a lump of cells, what's the big deal?

If they don't want them for this procedure, then they should avoid all ultrasounds and go back to having exploratory surgery for everything.  Just the liberals of course.

I'm sick and tired of these arrogant Repugs taking away a woman's right to make an uninformed decision/DUmpmode.

Seriously, in other medical situations, doctors typically show the patients their x-rays or CT scans and explain what's happening and the procedure that will take place.  Why is abortion different?  What are so afraid of DUmmies?  Are you afraid the woman will make the "wrong" choice?

They want dead babies.  Period.

because, quite simply, liberali...progressivism is a mental disease.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
