What the HELL are they doing??

50% Pro Choice 44% Pro Life

Abortion Issue Laying Low in 2008 Campaign

 

[g5000]

You again avoid specifics.

Public Opinion About Abortion -- An In-Depth Review

[Jarhead]

Have the Dems come completely unhinged?

They are trying to turn their entire convention into a War on Women party. But I suppose out of desperation, with no real issues to discuss, defend, or propose, they must focus on vaginas. Unwilling to discuss the issues most important to the American people, they must discuss abortions.

I see this becoming a catastrophe and a laughing stock for those of us who must witness it.

Do they really believe they can convince anyone that they are the party who can deal with the problems facing so many of us? Or are they just praying for it to be over so they can get out of Dodge?

How many of them will begin to wonder just what the HELL happened to a once proud party?

Very Unwise of them to make their Convention about Abortion rights, Don't the Read Polls? Americans are Pro-Choice 41% Pro-Life 50%

lol

Funny that 77% of Americans support a woman right to have an abortion however.

Outright lie.

Men and women have been evenly divided on the issue in previous years; however, this is the first time in nine years of Gallup Values surveys that significantly more men and women are pro-life than pro-choice.


More Americans

 

[g5000]

What we find when specific questions about abortion are asked is that most people are okay with abortions to save the life of the mother or in cases of rape and incest.

But these kind of abortions make up a tiny, tiny part of the more than one million abortions each year.

When you ask people if they are okay with abortions after the first trimester, the opposition rises dramatically to as high as 85 percent opposition, even though they may have said they approve of Roe v. Wade.


Americans, by large margins, abhor convenience abortions that do not involve the mother's life being at risk or being victimized by rape or incest.

The GOP is on the right side of this issue, not the Democratic Party.

The media likes to find the extremists in the GOP like Akins to distort the issue. The media likes to keep the extremists in charge of the conversation when it comes to issues like abortion and guns.

But when you blow through all the smoke and mirrors, you find that most Americans oppose abortions that are not for lifesaving purposes or rape or incest.

 

[gallantwarrior]

Asking an amorphous question like "abortion in some circumstances" does not tell you how many of those people believe in abortion being illegal in all cases except rape and incest, which was the law in many states before Roe v. Wade.


Two thirds of Americans are opposed to abortion in the second trimester even though second trimester abortions are legal under Roe v. Wade.


.

OK, I want to set this straight... I do not care whether a woman wants an abortion, or why. That is her decision, and one hopes she includes the other party in that decision whenever possible. But the ultimate responsibility lies,with HER. Would I make the same decision, can't say, Imdon't have a dog in that fight. Now, I do not feel that the public should be required to foot the bill for either her abortion or the mental health counseling she may decide she requires years down the road because of that choice. I am sick and tired of having my hard-earned funds extorted via taxes and then used to pay for someone else's poor decisions.

The pro-choice extremists keep trying to get people to focus on their vaginas during the abortion debate. They do not want you to look up about 6 inches above their vaginas and see the human being whose life is at stake.

They will throw up a shit ton of smoke to hide the million-plus aborted lives each year. They will grab victims of rape and incest and use them as human shields to conceal the million-plus abortions that are not the result of rape or incest or threat to the mother's life. They have no shame whatsoever when using some of the most damaged victims in our society this way.

Nothing must get in their way to abort, abort, abort and abort some more.


.

 

[g5000]

And now the Democratic Party will use women as human shields to hide Obama's deficits and total lack of job creation and all-around piss poor performance.

The very people who are the Democratic Party's core constituency are the one's suffering the most from their incompetence. The rich are doing great. The lower income people are still jobless and in a depression.


And somehow...that is not Obama's fault!

BS. Akins is GOP mainstream on Abortion and womens rights in general.

 

[notopinionated]

The same party supporting ISLAMIC BROTHERHOOD and jamah at the DNC.whatta buncha hypocrites.cry about womens rights yet support cults that enforce through shariah law of female subserviance. A pile of commie leftist bullshit.

What does Moron occult say about women?

That is what the media would like you to believe. Idiot goons like Akins make great fodder for the press. He is ideal sound bite material.

A reasonable voice is too long-winded for reporters with short attention spans. They are looking for feckless goo with which to fill heads.

I predict in 4 years the pro-choice column will have gained a few points.

Ryan co-sponsored a “personhood” amendment that would give legal rights to a fetus starting at conception. When asked Romney supported this extreme position as well.

2. Ryan supports banning all abortions, even in cases of rape and incest.

3. Ryan voted to ban abortion coverage from being included in the state health insurance exchanges.

That's just who they are.

It's simply blows the fucking mind. These idiots also support flooding our country with all of meso America and the same economic policies that fucked Greece over.

Really smart. America you better not vote rat this election.

Versus the policies that brought us October, 2008? The policies that created the great influx of illegal aliens were those of "W". He could have closed the southern border after 9-11 with the blessings of all. Instead, he left it open, and the majority of illegal aliens came in after 9-11. The GOP needed cheap labor to threaton the unions with. And they got it.

I heard that the reason Obama is letting the economy stay in the shitter is to get some of these illegal aliens to go back home. And, and not a single illegal alien has crossed the southern border since Obama took office. I really didn't make this up.(sarcasm)

 

[Too Tall]

"America deserves a choice." Paul Ryan

American women deserve no choice. Paul Ryan.

Yeah, Cause they didn't choose to get Pregnant by their Actions right?

lol

legitimate rape

Illegitimate rape. Pregnant teen age girls that go to planned parenthood and say that they were raped in order to get an abortion paid for by diverting taxpayer money from another fund to pay for it.

 

[AmyNation]

I was mistaken.


It won't take 4 years

Look at all the laws restricting womens rights in the states controlled by the GOP. It is their mainstream position.

 

[rightwinger]

53% of the voters in the last election were women. 56% percent of those voted for President Obama. The GOP has done it's best to alienate the women voters of this nation. So why not highlight the women's issues? As well as the senior issues that Romney and Ryan would negatively impact.

It's not just the war on women. It's the war on blacks, gays, teachers, firemen, policemen, union members, Muslims, Hispanics, middle class workers, students and Medicare

Democrats have to stay on message about just what Republican leadership will do to this country
