We have a freedom of religion and a freedom of speech. You on the other hand do not have a freedom from religion.
Why not? What does that mean, exactly?
Someone has to help me on this one, while it seems we pay for a lot of things that people don't agree with, for instance, Wars, Environmental Programs, etc etc. that taxpayers pay for, if the 1st Amendment issue was one that held sway here, then it would also hold sway on every issue that someones religion would take issue with. The bottom line as i see the comments here is peoples objection to how their tax dollars are spent, well join the club, Americans have been objecting about that since before John Hancock's signature was dry. The point is, we elect those who represent us to spend our tax dollars for us in a wise manner and if we do not want them spent on such things as contraceptives then elect a majority to make that happen. As for myself while it's my personal belief abortion is wrong, it is also my belief that my rights end where anothers begin and as such a woman should be allowed to have a choice both moral and physical when it comes to this.
Its very nice to read a sensible and down to earth pov.
How are things in AZ? I've been gone from there for a few years. Beautiful place but with some real crazies running the show.
This is what makes him dangerous. He's a windsock with no beliefs of his own. He'll say anything to get elected and then do anything Bush's Brain and his owners tell him to do.Romney has always been a moderate and rational conservative. I don't appreciate the fact that he has to don conservative whiskers to placate the GOP base but I'm fairly certain he is still a moderate (a RINO to conservatives) and will preside fairly.
I do NOT beileve he wants to push religion on anyone
Like it or not, a huge difference between the candidates is that Obama, while raising more $, most of his contributions have been $250 or less. Most of Rmoney's have come from his one percent cronies. They own him.
A woman's rights end when they interfere with the rights of another, i.e., her child.
If what you say bout o's contributors is true, it just means he takes advantage of the poor more willingly and often than Romney.
You're an idiot.
Really, there's no point in even responding to your ongoing stream of blather.
it is also my belief that my rights end where anothers begin .
DONT FORCE YOUR RELIGION ON ME.
Romney/Ryans radical religious beliefs that life began at conceptions and abortion are murder dont give them the right to force their religious beliefs on me no more than radical Islam force their religious belief and Sharia law on me. My freedom of religion should protect me. I may be an atheist and believe in evolution and not creation. Just because you believe in GOD or ALLAH do not mean I have to. I may not believe in war and dont want my taxes going to support war but it does and I accept that and respect that of my Government. My religious freedom allows me to have an abortion.
Romney/Ryan want to force their religious belief by way of law on others and that is not different than radical Muslim forcing Sharia law on others.

Typical ignorance of many on the right.
Again, we have freedom from religion in that the state may not codify religious dogma into secular law, the state may not inappropriately conjoin church and State to the extent that religious dogma becomes part of mandated public policy.
The belief that personhood begins at conception, for example, is religious dogma, not legal fact; which is why so-called personhood laws are struck down as un-Constitutional, as was the case in Oklahoma earlier this year.

I agree but this thread is not about children.
Just when I think you loonies can't twist things any more, you come up with this.
Remember back before teepotters were bought by the Koch brothers? Remember when it really was a "grass roots" movement?
The very fact that so many millions of Americans have contributed to the re-election of President Obama makes that a grass rooms effort.
Sharia law. Yep - laws based on religious dogma. This is still the United States and unless the fundies take over, you don't have the right to force your beliefs re abortion, on others.
But you did.You're an idiot.

Incorrectly.
THREE (3) TIMES!
That's okay though. You can go now.

Individual liberty allows you to seek an abortion, not religion.
If it were up to religion, everybody would be like Rick Santorum or Mitt Romney or Todd Akin, and America would be a lot less fun.
Don't make me a party to whatever Sandy Fluke does with her vagina
No one asked you to. Including her.
You need to stop listening to the LIES jackasses like dredge, fux and lushbo are telling about what she REALLY said.
Try thinking for yourself.

She wants me to pay for her contraception when she can walk her fat ass into any drug store and pick it up herself. She's a typical Progressive

When a lefty says anything about having the *right* not to have religion *forced* upon them, what they mean is you don't have the *right* to freedom of speech or religion because they don't approve.
Their *rights* always include the violation of the rights of another.

Not sure if you'd consider me a 'lefty' or not, but when I say it I mean that the government doesn't have any business - ie is constitutionally prohibited from - passing laws or implementing policy that either promotes or discourages religious beliefs.
It's fine, for example, if you want to take the day off on Sunday for worship, but don't make laws telling the rest of us we must do likewise.
