Republicans Jump on Abortion Platform Language
REPUBLICANS ARE CLAIMING that “‘rare’ is now too much for the Democrats’ platform committee.” They forget that Pres.

They want to use state and federal power to force [...]

IT MAY NOT mean much to people who don’t follow politics closely, but it’s a huge difference between the two candidates for president.

It was all the people who have faithfully knocked doors, made calls, and made sacrificial contributions to elect Republicans because we thought we were welcome in the party. – Mike Huckabee ANTI-WOMEN CONTROL freaks evidently don’t understand [...]
In Honor the the GOP Platform, It’s Back to the ’80s
AKIN: You know, Dr. Willke has just released a statement and part of his letter, I think he just stated it very clearly. He said, of course Akin never used the word legitimate to refer to the rapist, but to false claims like those made in Roe v. Wade and I think that simplifies it….. [...]

What Stupak Wrought in the Obama Era: Self-Determination for Women Under Siege
So far this year, states have enacted 39 new restrictions on access to abortion.

Rand Paul Is Not Libertarian, He’s Not Even Conservative
“FETAL PERSONHOOD” being considered over a woman’s own personal freedom is not a libertarian idea. It’s not even a conservative idea. In fact, when women like myself say Do Not Tread On Me, it may be a civil rights and privacy notion, but it also used to be a conservative one as well. What is [...]

Bill As Barack’s Ultimate ATM Machine

Gritty GIRLS Takes Over
“You could not pay me enough to be 24 again.” – female doctor giving Hannah a pelvic exam Inspired genius. Two episodes in and I’m hooked. Everybody is. Well, not everyone.
