Republican spending plan signals a new culture war

[rdean]

Yeah, we stop funding abortions as a means of making women responsible for their actions.

And women are so irresponsible. That's why their bodies must be government "legislated" and "regulated". Because Republicans know better, right?

Of course, you could just "educate the kids", but that would mean learning things that might protect them. Can't have that. It isn't "moral".

 

[shintao]

In 2005 (the most recent year for which there is reliable data), approximately 1.21 million abortions took place in the U.S.......


In 2005, the cost of a nonhospital abortion with local anesthesia at 10 weeks of gestation ranged from $90 to $1,800, and the average amount paid was $413 (AGI).


ABORTION AND PUBLIC FUNDS
The U.S. Congress has barred the use of federal Medicaid funds to pay for abortions, except when the woman's life would be endangered by a full-term pregnancy or in cases of rape or incest (AGI).

Well Dean, I just get frustrated with the reatrds, and would just as well let them build their retard utopia and let America disintegrate into that black hole. Like pedophiles, gays, gun & car accidents, etc., abortion is a small stat number, to small to argue about at 1/300th of the population.

I am surprised that the Post apparently thinks that politicians are capable of doing only one thing at a time. If one tries to ensure that abortions are not funded by taxpayers.... that automatically means they cannot focus on jobs.

Except they haven't had introduced one Jobs bill yet. They have however introduced 5 bills about repealing the estate tax which at this point only affects the top 1%.

Though they have been swore in almost a month now. What have the GOP done so far outside of the symbolic vote on the Healthcare bill?

Almost a month.

How many "jobs bills," whatever you think those are, have the Democrats introduced in the last two years?

Doing aways with Obamacare is not about abortion Mr Modbert.

A "jobs bill?"

Hell, I'd love to see anyone recreate the CCC. Set up a camp in the middle of the desert and begin handing shovels to anyone willing to dig 8 hours a day for a cot and 3 square meals.

 

[Avatar4321]

I'm amused by this idea that something has to be called a "jobs bill" to encourage job growth. It's pure sophistry.

The problem with our nation is cultural. Maybe we should be fighting a cultural war. Let's stop this overspending and debt and start training ourselves and our posterity to be thrifty and industrious.

Congress doesn't have to do it. In fact, they can't do it. But this is something we need to fight.

 

[zeitgeist2012]

I agree...SCAM...

want to present a pieced together summery of my recent research and findings. I hope the pattern tells a coherent story of what we are dealing with both nationaly and internationally.... Let me know what you all think without whining or complaing.... I'm just trying to be informative so everyone might see it the same way for the most part....

Some of you are right to some degree. However, if the rich are not going to reinvest the trillions of dollars they have bleed out of our communities and country then tax the hell out of them and if they don't like it then they can all move to China to be closer to our money and jobs....

One of the biggest problems that you failed to mention is the fact that progressive crooks found within both so-called parties in Washington sold out our Constitution, workers and business when they implemented unconstitutional trade treaties and polices opening up our borders, communities, businesses, gov't and institutions to enemy foreign powers and interests; The fascist/communist corporate elite owners of the worlds resources and finances....
