I wonder if she’s aware that abortions – especially done on young teens in the first trimester of their first pregnancy – is a greater risk factor for breast cancer than family history of breast cancer, the one criteria doctors use to decide whether a woman should have a mammogram sooner than at 40 years old.

There was a pro-choice researcher whose sister had breast cancer. She found a high correlation between abortion and breast cancer and suddenly the whole medical community was against her. A study in Australia actually found that abortion was the number one predictor of whether a woman would get breast cancer – far outweighing the next-strongest predictor, family history. THEY EXPUNGED THAT RESULT FROM THEIR CONCLUSIONS BECAUSE IT WAS NOT POLITICALLY CORRECT.

This is why we should NEVER have government – run by political hacks – messing with legitimate scientific inquiry OR our health care.

If I’m paying your doctor bills I get to decide what medicine you can have. Abortion is bad medicine, period. If government is going to tell people they can’t drink soda-pop, smoke cigarettes, or get too flabby, then we had better darn well be telling them they can’t be putting their breasts into cancer mode by forcing their cervix open (potentially destroying its competence) and scraping a living, fighting child out of their womb.

The people who want to come between us and our doctors need to know that the knife cuts both ways. If my body is not my choice when I want to have hip replacement, then your body is not your choice when you want to suck a living baby limb from limb out of your womb.

If Congress passes ANY bill it goes on to Cass Sunstein to write the “regulations” – Cass Sunstein, a guy who says that nine out of every ten people on earth should be exterminated.

The whole idea of sending ANYTHING for him to mess with is like handing world government over to the Third Reich.

We have got to make it clear to Congress that we know that what is actually passed has no bearing on what actually happens in this nation, and we don’t trust people who have said outright that they believe it may be the government’s moral duty to exterminate 9 out of 10 people alive today, as well as sneak sterilizing drugs into the water. If it wasn’t our own government doing it, we’d call that chemical warfare.

I’m tired of my government waging war against my country and its Constitution. We need to let Congress see that they are looking more and more like enemy combatants every day.

Bashing white males isn’t racist?

On this date betwee 12:30 and 12:45 Eastern, (lunchtime for us peons) and analyst on MSNBC tossed a fit because ” a white male is making decisions for women’s..” referring to this issue.

A simple question is what does white have to do with it? Does it just fit their demonizing narrative? My friend, maybe my best friend is, well, a Carl Lewis look alike and he hates abortion while I just resist most all government spending and the toxic nature of programs like this one.

I have to ask. What would be said if Glen Beck had even rhetorically said: Oh, fine, another black female making decisions about our economy and white male’s property…what do you think that she is going to do?

[...] Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey looks at reports that several Republican lawmakers were considering voting “present” instead of approving the amendment. Morrissey believes the Republicans did “the right thing” voting yes: Republicans can make that argument only because they supported the Stupak amendment, even against what appeared to be their longer-term interests at that moment. They acted on principle and can now argue that the Stupak coalition must respond in kind or be exposed as the worst kind of hypocrites in election challenges next year — challenges which that Stupak town-hall meeting shows will resonate. Had they tried playing the legislative game with the Stupak amendment, this rift among Democrats shown by Sargent would never have appeared, and they would have lost the ability to highlight a backroom effort to rid the bill of an amendment that received more votes than the bill itself.

The Stupak amendment stays in.
ObamaCare is passed with abortion restrictions.
A bill repealing the Stupak amendment will be tacked on to the next military appropriations bill. Pubbies have to vote for it or risk looking like they don’t support the military. Same thing they did with a hate crimes bill, I think.

It’s partly her voice, and it’s partly her appearance. Did she used to be a man? I’m seriously asking, because something is very very wrong. I’d be less than shocked if we found out she was a serial killer who stole the identity of a woman he killed.

This is exactly why it was a good idea, strategically, for House GOPers to support the amendment. (Besides it being the right thing to do.)

I for one am fine with Pelosi’s House passing both cap’n trade and health care deform. What lunatics! With the Senate (barely) holding the line on these awful bills, it means the House Dems get all the flak for supporting the efforts with none of the credit for enacting them.

What a civil war it will be when Dems fight over federally-funded abortion. It’s such a must-have for the uber-Lefties, but political death to most Congressmen. Sit back and enjoy, y’all, the self-infliction of wounds is not over yet…

Am I the only one who finds Wasserman Schultz terrifying? There is something very very wrong with this woman. No, it’s not just the fact that she’ll lie right to an interviewers face, be correct with facts, and then just deny them with comments like “well no, that’s not true”. Yes, that is incredibly annoying, but that’s not it. It’s also not the fact the she constantly resorts to some stupid “come down and talk to the seniors in my district” crap. (BTW, did she do that here? I find her to creepy to watch her any more, so I didn’t watch the clip)
