In the late 1930s when I was born and put up for adoption my eventual parents had 7 babies to chose from. Secondly, many women keep their babies which is another story entirely which I refuse to judge.NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-27775045331888147922012-03-02T15:32:22.388-06:002012-03-02T15:32:22.388-06:00As I sat knitting with a group of women last night...As I sat knitting with a group of women last night, we started talking about that farce going on in DC and realized there were women in their 20s there who had no idea what we were talking about. One of the ladies said the same things you did, that these young women need to pay attention and speak up because there are men who want to take away what those before us have worked so hard for. Don't take it for granted.Kellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275488871572628293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-72446256235090110552012-03-02T07:08:39.325-06:002012-03-02T07:08:39.325-06:00It just goes to show how that we haven't made ...It just goes to show how that we haven't made as much progress as we thought -- but I knew that.Kay Dennisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02646717192332313215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-8902451799094556922012-03-01T20:01:26.836-06:002012-03-01T20:01:26.836-06:00It baffles me how the debate moved from real issue...It baffles me how the debate moved from real issues - war, the debt, jobs, the economy, education, energy, infrastructure - to women's (reproductive) rights. We should make every effort to vote out every single Senator (who is running this year) who voted for the Blunt amendment today. The same for the representatives who vote for a similar bill in the House. They are all up for re-election.Meryl Baerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13482532818278685217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-35436272233273218442012-03-01T18:09:36.678-06:002012-03-01T18:09:36.678-06:00I'm torn...I'm an avid supporter of women&...I'm torn...I'm an avid supporter of women's rights, but my biggest, absolute, unequivocal concern this election cycle is the deficit and the national debt. For that reason, at least next week, I'll be voting for Ron Paul. When it comes time for the General, I'm not sure what to do (likely because Paul won't be on that ballot).<br /><br />Obama adding 5 Trillion to the debt is totally unacceptable. Unfortunately, I think I'll ultimately end up having to choose between a Giant Douche and a Turd Sandwich:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5gXRPXs0PQBenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03930891817475864085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-18766554255132759952012-03-01T17:14:47.486-06:002012-03-01T17:14:47.486-06:00The wheels seem to have come off the bus when it c...The wheels seem to have come off the bus when it comes to womens health lately. <br /><br />I say, "No uterus, no opinion!"Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15445927851498985260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-11752423918177093482012-03-01T16:21:13.560-06:002012-03-01T16:21:13.560-06:00Absolutely!!

I say if women don't get contraceptives covered, men should not get vasectomies or Viagra covered.Margie's Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11206751037182686016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-78567421647461499762012-03-01T14:04:09.172-06:002012-03-01T14:04:09.172-06:00You are so right.....how sad.You are so right.....how sad.Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398370059689865989noreply@blogger.com
