Yes, right, because all of the women who
have abortions are simply sluts who can't keep their legs closed. Nobody has an abortion because they were raped and victims of a horrible abuse.

I'm not for abortion but I don't have to be pro-life to see the ignorance in your post.
Both are very beautiful women. nm

Right back at ya! Come over here where women....
are not dissed by their party. Our door is always open! :)
No, I don't hate women....
....and I don't necessarily hate dems, either. Hate is too strong of a word, and not worth the effort.

But I sure do dislike a bunch of women, and most of the ones I dislike happen to be democrats, who want to be taken care of by the social democrat party.

So much for your women libbers and feminists. I never could quite understand how feminists could be dems, as they sure don't want to be taken care of by men. Then why would they let the government try to take complete control over their lives. Explain that one for me, please. I just shake my head at you all, I really do.

And by the way, do you have some crystal ball that you know exactly why McCain chose Palin to be his running mate? I sincerely doubt any women will come running over to his side to vote, but you can sure bet he shored up his conservative base, which I believe was his intention. And it's going to work, too.

Obama/Biden don't stand a chance. Just wait and watch.




We will....and so will a lot of women out there in America...
who identify with her. THere is a reason Obama said to leave her alone.
embarassment to women?
I'm a woman and not embarassed, that would be your opinion. There were plenty of more qualified democratic candidates also but look who we got, Barack Obama.
Sure, most all women who believe in murdering
@
Seriously. Why do you suppose women
The onus of birth control is not gender specific. My own son learned this lesson when he was 9 years old when his only cousin was diagnosed with HIV. He takes precautions and asks the right questions. He does not have sex with women who are not willing to show him the pill or discuss openly with him how they would respond to an unwanted pregnancy...and he makes his own views plainly known in no uncertain terms...that he does not feel he is ready for the responsibilities of fatherhood and that he ALSO has the right to make this decision without moral persecution.

Most women share the news of a pregnancy with the father in the hopes that he will take on the responsibilities of fatherhood. The ones who do not more than likely already know what the answer will be. Unwanted pregnancies have a way isolating the mother, blaming her for having gotten pregnant in the first place in much the same way you have inferred in your parting shot (as though the father has suddenly become canceled out of the equation) and giving all sorts of folks license to condemn and weigh in on the decision. In the event that support is forthcoming, most women WILL have the child more often than not.
What about the thousands of men and women
who lost their lives in that "mistake" that Bush made.  Maybe that should be in that post too.  I bet their families feel like they had plenty of courage.
So, it's okay with you for women to not receive....
equal wages for equal work.  Maybe you would be okay with us just going back to the stick at home and support your man theory.  Maybe we shouldn't think for ourselves.  Why don't you come to the rescue for Obama, or anyone else for that matter?  She is a politician by choice, and we all know the scrutiny and criticism that comes with that.  I don't plan on treating her with kid gloves just because she has a vagina.  You, on the other hand seem to have a double standard, and that double standard does not help with the cause for equality for women.
So are you saying that all women should be pro-choice or
they are an insult to women as a whole? 
They are not children. They are grown women.
It's their choice.  Can you say with certainty that if one of them or both of them came to George Bush and said I am joining the Marines he would talk them out of it?  I just don't see it that way.  At any rate, again, they have a mind of their own. 
I agree. Women will have them - legal or not

Although I don't think I would ever consider abortion personally and am also sickened by people who have them over and over again (get your tubes tied darn it!!!), I believe women will have them regardless of if they are legal or not, so I think it is much safer if they remain legal.


I also think the woman should have the choice of what to do with something that is actually inside of her body.  She is the one ultimately 100% responsible for the medical bills due to the pregnancy, the emotional toll and physical risks of the pregnancy, and the child's well being afterwards.  The man can get off scott free if he wants and skip from job to job to avoid paying child support, so it should definitely be up to the woman.


I also find it odd that many pro-life Republicans are so adamant that each baby have a chance to be born, but yet if that baby is born to a lower-class mother many (not all) don't want a dime of their money to go to help that baby with healthcare costs or any other costs that could help the child after it's actually born.  Where is the deep concern for the children that are actually living?


Though the thought of abortion is definitely disturbing to me, I do not believe at less than 3 months old a baby's nerves are developed enough to feel pain as they are aborted, but I know for a fact many children in the USA are being abused and neglected on a daily basis because they were unwanted, and my heart breaks for them.  There are over 100,000 foster kids in the USA right now that need good homes and more resources, and I think our focus should be on helping these children first.  My sister has 2 amazing foster kids, and I really wish the anti-abortion activists would focus on fostering or helping the kids that are here now instead of focusing so much on fetuses that are inside of other women's bodies, and therefore really none of their business in my personal opinion.  (I know some do foster and volunteer, but I have a sneaking suspicion that not all of them do!)


Where women are little more than breeding stock???
If some women were a little more discerning about who they slept with and a little more careful about taking precautions, we would not have to fix 2000+ "oopses" in a day. So go right ahead...fund irresponsibility, infanticide, and baby killing. Knock yourself out. Make planned parenthood richer. don't you think there is something sick about making a profit from killing babies??
Like women who are resistant to every form of BC
Before you start preaching to me about adoption, been there, done that. Easy for you to say from your ivory tower pulpit. Try it once of twice, like I did, and then come back and tell us all how right it is for "everyone concerned." Blinded to your own gender by right-wing dogma. Not exactly the perfect example to follow. Stay out of other people's business unless you know what you are talking about.
Women who "do" ABs or adoptions do NOT
None of us need spend a single second defending ourselves against this santimonious slop. Take it back to the church where it belongs and remember the Sermon on the Mount while you are at it...judge not, lest ye be judged.
You have a lot of nerve assuming these women
xoxoxo
Not according to what the public is saying out there...women are upset...sm
Palin is the complete opposite of Hillary being pro-Choice. Hillary voters are not voting for just any woman...go to other sites and read for yourself...

McCain's desperation is out in the open now and his judgement is in question.
The Dems only stand up for dem women....
the rest of us, unfortunately, are fair game, especially in election season.
I've had too many women bosses that were like
knowingly VOTE ONE INTO OFFICE as U.S. Vice-President. It would be more palatable have a root canal with no anesthetic.
You don't think there are strong, intelligent women...
who express their opinions in favor of Palin?

The conservative posters on this board are no more sensitive about Palin than the other side is about Obama.

It is not personal for me either. I'm sure Obama is a nice person...and I am personally sure he is not the right man for the #1 job. He has a socialist agenda and socialist policies and I think that would be disastrous for America. That in a nutshell is my problem with him.
Some liberal dem women are = most cruel to their own sex ....sm
than any people I've ever known in my life.

Not all liberal women, mind you, just some.




Women of Alaska - another view.

http://bigshow.bigfolio.com/?s=000011662&t=0e6a8ae03101be65098418ccb735e4a1


 


Definitely worth the watch


Well, there are liberal women in Alaska....
no kiddin! Geez. They borrowed the signs from the lower 48; heck, they may BE from the lower 48. Did anybody really think there were not liberal Democratic women in Alaska? This is news?
If men checking out women's butts ....
means they are not qualified to be President...take out the whole male race. Sheesh.

And you could have been a little less crude in your description.

Being led by his anatomy didn't seem to bother Clinton's ability to govern. Multiple affairs including one in the white house, but many Democrats think he was the second coming.

If Slick Willie could do it, I have no problem believing McCain could.

JFK had affairs. RFK had affairs. Why don't we just go down a tick list? Where was all the righteous indignation then?


You mean the other women who dare to present
Americans are not a monolith.
Good for her, they could use some women's rights over there.

More pregnant women should be informed of this.
When I had my son, we donated his cord blood and it was all done for free. When I had my daughter four years later (and at a different hospital), we were told that we could store the cord blood, but not donate, and of course, storing means paying (way too much), so we didn't do it then. I probably should have done more checking around to see where we could have donated.

That one, I'm all for - if they could use that to find a cure for or treat cancer, MD, or anything else, imagine how fabulous that would be!!!
Why don't women have a right to choose suicide?
Why is it a woman can chose to murder an unborn child because it's "her body" - a scientific impossibility...

But if that woman decided to kill HERSELF - when it actually IS her body - it's a crime.

You promote abortion. The fact that you don't want to admit it proves that somewhere in your dank, shriveled-up little soul, there's at least one ounce of decency that knows what you're professing is wrong.

You are pro-abortion. You're just in denial about it. LIke every other "proud Liberal" lunatic.
Yes, many of them hire good-looking women
nm
You got your wish. An MP was shot in the leg by looters. Women are being raped.
Police are turning in their badges because they say their homes are gone and it isn't worth it to them to get shot stopping looters.  There is anarchy in New Orleans.   Your with come true. 
Throwing bleach on 70-year-old women...
destroying property...not necessary to do either of those to exercise free speech. They were acting like thugs. I believe they were going to engage in "civil" disobedience. Injuring innocent people and destroying private property is hardly civil.

I am all for free speech...I am also for respecting innocent people and the property of others.
I am proud of strong, intelligent women... sm
Expressing their opinion and speaking out. Just because they're not infatuated with SP and disagree with her idealogy doesn't mean what they're saying is hateful. I've seen much more hateful things here on this board than on that blog.

You (and a lot of people) seem to be taking any negative comments about SP very personally. Is there no critism of her you'll stand? Come on. McCain wants her to be the VP and no one who thinks otherwise can say anything about her w/o it being "hateful" ? How ridiculous.

I don't agree with her views on the issues. It's not personal. I'm sure she's a lovely person, I'm just not convinced she's the best person for the job. In a nutshell, that is my problem with McCain's choice of her for his VP.
your statement/sarcasm is proof women have NOT
x
I find it fascinating that women really hate her...
so much for that feminist mantra I am woman, hear me roar...oh, wait, only roar if you think and act like us or else get back in the kitchen where you belong. They hate her because she is either everything they aren't or can't be or they feel guilty. Anger comes from fear. While I agree that she does have little experience in foreign affairs, the top guy on the other ticket doesn't have that much either. For that fact, Clinton and Carter had little foreign affairs experience also. Didn't stop them from becoming president; this lady is running for VP. And please don't give the song and dance about McCain's health, any one can die at any time, age has nothing to do with it. Biden has had 2 brain aneuryms in the past. Eight presidents have died in office, 4 assassinated, and 7 VPs have died in office.
News flash for you.......their women are scared
They are afraid to even move the wrong way for fear of retribution. THey are afraid to let their daughters go to school because they fear what will happen to them on the way to school. Of course, the women will treat you with respect. The women aren't usually the problem. It's the beliefs the men have forced down their throats and those of their daughters. Don't misinterpret respect for fear, fear of doing anything that could get them beaten to death. There are some more liberal areas where beliefs are not as harsh and families are not so demanding of their women and daughters; Saudi Arabia and Iran are two of them, but even Iranian women are coming under attack again and are fearful of even crossing the street.

Like I have been told by Muslim women in this country who are no longer under the control of men from those countries, they feel such a relief and do not have to fear for their lives every day. They will tell you their sons are taught from a small age to chant verses of hate over and over again, brainwashing them. Only those that are lucky enough to be in a more liberal environment and even leave the country abroad for education purposes realize the difference in the teachings from other religions, where love is actually taught.
Have experienced the same problem with aggressive women
need to say, how to think and scold, scold, scold when they think we are out of line. Perhaps you should sign up for Michelle Bachmann's Committee on UnAmerican Activities so you can practice self-righteous indignation in a more official capacity.
Alaksa Women Reject Palin sm

Another thing - I for one am so tired of these women who CHOOSE
to have extramarital affairs with these politicians be looked up as 'victims'..there are women in this world who are truly exploited yet Monica, Gennifer, et AL have sat and cried 'foul' when they decided to make their bedroom exploits public and made money off of that behavior in the process.  Victims indeed.
Some women are sold into marriage and then raped.
.
Women didn't have rights under Saddam, and it's looking bleak for them
under the new constitution so far. I hope they are able to get some rights under the new constitution.

But you're right, Iraq is much more unstable now and we have our work cut out for us to stabilize that country.
I don't despise any women....please do not ascribe to me feelings I don't share...
and the scope of the issue is something you don't understand either, it would appear. There is nothing in that post to suggest I despise any women. I am against the procedure of abortion. Yes, you bet I am. I despise it. It is horrendous, horrible, terrible way to die. Why are people concerned about water boarding a terrorist but don't mind cutting a living human to ribbons? Nope, you're right, I don't understand it. I don't see any way TO understand it.

The poster made a good point about women resistant to birth control. All I said is if you add women who are resistant to all forms of birth control to women who have been raped or victims of incest, and when the life of the mother is in danger, you could cut abortions 85-90%. That would save a lot of lives. The last sentence was addressing those who say that the baby is not alive or moving at the time most abortions are performed and that is simply not true. The point I was trying to make is that when a woman has a planned, wanted pregnancy, if you tell her when she feels that movement that that child is not alive inside her, that would be a hard sell. The point is, it IS alive, and people want to rationalize abortion by saying they really aren't killing anything. THey are. Just be up front about it and say that they are pro choice, and if a woman makes a decision to take that child's life for whatever reason that is her choice. Fine. Just call it what it is. We have legalized killing of unborn children in this country and made it a cash industry. Not a good thing in my books.
I have had many bosses like Sara Palin, have known many neurotic women like that...

If she gets elected president - there will no doubt be a revolution in this country and then anyone will be able to take it over.  Guess we have to hit rock bottom before anything really changes. 


You women who want to elect someone president just because you like her - I will be sitting here waiting until about a year from now to see how you are faring.  You are going to fear her just like most of her state does.  She will bring you sorrow as more and more of your children will be lost to war and poverty.


We have almost the same storm brewing in this country thanks to in my opinion the current president and his administration for another Hitler in this world.  Read the history, because he did the same thing you are hearing from M and P - just saying whatever it is people want to hear.  Good luck with that.  You trusted Bush and are ever more fervent to go right back and trust someone else in this position simply because you are being 'played' and led to believe this woman is going to like you.  She will do whatever she is told by Bush and Cheney - forget about McCain. 


Good luck and God protect us - we are going to need it.  Of course, not if you are rich, aye?

Your post is a slap in the face to women - shame on you!
You're exactly the type of 'woman' who makes it difficult for the rest of us to get the respect we deserve and have earned. You're an embarrassment to the thousands of women who have fought hard to get ahead. Shame on you!!!!!!

Why don't you stick to speaking for yourself, rather than pretending to represent the 'female point of view.' Gag!
The View. That show is a joke and makes women

Verrry boring. Antifeminist women easy marks
?
Poor women in 3rd world countries shouldn't live
baby that they dont want, and cannot afford to feed. Making birth control (which is a large part of what the funding is all about, it's not all about abortions), will improve the quality of life for millions of people, as well as the slow down the biggest environmental disaster the Earth faces - the overpopulation of the human species.
No women/no non-whites - It's cultural baggage. How about a mixed ethnicity candidate?

Would like to see Obama, at least as a vice-presidential possibility. 


As diverse as America is - still pretty racist deep-down (and misogynistic).  We need to become more color-blind as well as able to accept that women can be strong powerful leaders also. 


Most women secretly want control of whether or not to carry a pregnancy without govt interference.
.
Amen to that!!. Ann Coulter is an embarrassment to ALL women, period. She is a race-baiting
hateful, tragically misinformed, stunningly inferior shell of  a human being who has been paid by the media to vomit forth inflammatory nonsensical words to the mainstream U.S. who quite frankly, wish she would stick her head up her posterior, exhale and blow herself up.
