Nobody! And as usual you make this `about me', because you can't answer the
hard questions that come up on this subject.


And you STILL haven't answered the question.


While you're trying to think up a snotty comeback to THAT one...here's another
thing for you to think on...


Women want to *be in control of their own body*! Fine. I have no problem with
that.


Women want abortion to be available to them when they NEED it. Fine. I have no
problem with that. The former laws against all abortions were not just
archaic, in some instances they were down right stupid!


But....abortion is a medical procedure that shouldn't be used as the `go-to'
birth control method, as it has become. I have a BIG problem with that.


I, by myself, can't actually DO anything about it....but I have a big problem
with it. Over 50 million aborted babies since Roe v Wade is, to me, an
indictment of what the moral fiber of America has fallen to.


But....here's another thing I have a problem with; and I have a RIGHT to
express this aloud, politic against it if I so choose, and keep reminding
people of as much as I want:


Women wanting all sorts of birth control pills available over-the-counter is
one thing. And women wanting to use `abortion' as a means of getting rid of an
un-wanted pregnancy is another.


But, when the cost of either of those are going to be sluffed off onto the
taxpayer, thats quite another matter. And, as a taxpayer, I have an absolute
right to object to being made responsible to pay for either one.


Whether or not a woman engages in sexual activity, or how often she does so,
is none of mine or anyone elses business.


But, if she's having an abortion because she didn't have the sense or
responsibility to utilize the MANY methods of birth control that are easily
and cheaply available to her, and the cost of that abortion is coming out of
MY pocket, that MAKES it my business.


And if some gal like Sandra Fluke, is trotted out in front of TV cameras, in a
Congressional hearing, and is making a case for the cost of HER birth control
also coming out of MY pocket...that ALSO makes it my business!


These leftist politicians want to make everything free to THEIR favored aspect
of the electorate. Free this...free that....free healthcare...free higher
education....free birth control...free housing....free abortions...everything
for free!


But its NOT free. Because at some point....somebody has to pony up the money
for it. And that `somebody' shouldn't have to be the taxpayers.


Is it so much to ask that women take responsibility for what they're doing?
They want to `be all they can be'. Fine. But not ay MY expense.


As for abortion....it is my opinion that there will come a day when those 50
million and counting abortions will come back to haunt this country.
