It strikes me as quite inconsistent that under the new laws, a woman's right to choose is very important and protected, but at the same time she doesn't have the right to choose to not have health insurance.....

You posted it as breaking news - the burden is on you to provide further info.

I am not outraged (IF it is even true) because I thought it was incredibly stupid to begin with that we are refusing to cover basic medical procedures in a "universal" health care bill.

No matter what your personal feelings or religious views are about it, the fact remains that abortion is a medical procedure that is not always an elective "choice" due to health reasons.

I have no burden to provide you with any information...I posted a comment..an opinion...a disappointment... as far as a medical procedure...I don't consider an abortion like having a tumor removed, or a repaired heart value or a broken bone repair. An abortion is the removal and actual killing of a future life...I don't consider that a routine medical procedure.

There's a Pew Research Center Poll that shows only 7 percent - only 7 - want Obamacare to remain as it is. Most want it to be repealed.

Obama's promises are meaningless and that is why 68% of the American people believe the Obama administration is what is wrong with our country. He pretends to be for the "middle class" all the while doing his best to destroy it.

If someone wants an abortion that is their business but should not be funded by the federal government.

Obama has been successful on more of his promises than most presidents and he's not even 2 years in yet. It is probably because of the employment situation that this is being overlooked.
Anyway, you should at least give him the credit deserved because he has been busy!

The Obameter Scorecard
Promise Kept ..... 119
Compromise ...... 37
Promise Broken.... 19
Stalled .............. 82
In the Works ...... 245
Not yet rated ... 3

Not too shabby imo


.

Quite a few of the 19 identified as broken ones are directly related to 'transparency'.

No. 30: End no-bid contracts above $25,000
No. 234: Allow five days of public comment before signing bills
No. 240: Tougher rules against revolving door for lobbyists and former officials
No. 517: Negotiate health care reform in public sessions televised on C-SPAN

Oh well, if Obama is going to lie, it's some consolation to know the lie creates a more favorable situation, that's all I can say.

My, my, my. There are folks around here that would run for their umbrella if Obama was peeing on their boots and said it was raining.

Breaking news:
Sarah Palin shot her husband in the ass. I think this is so wrong. Anyone who can like Palin after she did something like this is a horrible person.

I'm not posting a link or citing a source for you to see that ths actually happened, though. I'm just going to tell you that it is terrible even if it isn't true.

You google it. I owe you nothing.

(end parody)
