Do they really think women say “Gee, I’d love to have my baby, but I don’t have good healthcare, so I’m going to abort it!”

Read the DNC platform!
the vast majority of women who have abortions don’t want a baby at all!
i’m pro-choice, but come on, dems!

Comrade Otto asked:


by worst health care i meant out of the developed western world. so obviously not the worst in the world
innovation? google will fix that myth for you. the US patents have been decreasing in the scientific field for years. and world leaders in the western world go to their hospitals.

if US health care is so great why is the leading cause of going bankrupt health care costs? and why are 75% of these people INSURED? why do HMOs continue to make absurd profits whilst 50 million americans are uninsured? why do they do everything they can to make sure they dont have to pay out?

why arent european countries scrapping UHC in favour for private?

His party doesn’t want abortion for any reason….even if a medical doctor says that the life of mom and baby are in danger…(which is the government in health care)

But…….he doesn’t want to provide health care for the children after they are born?

And I don’t want any foolish conservatives talking about people paying their own way, people having babies for welfare money….yada yada yada….

We are talking about CHILDREN who have no control who their parents are and how they live their lives…….

Explain this to me please!
Pretzlenit…

You had me….I almost exploded until I paged down :)
I am expecting some conservative to say that.
Brian,

Most intelligent people would know that I meant if the baby isn’t viable and going to die anyway….if mom dies baby dies too (usually) or baby comes into the world (a world that doesn’t care about children) with no mommy and the knowledge that their live took moms.
Dinah W….you’re right I don’t care…I don’t care anything about your party…I did once….until W…..I used to vote for the best person….now I will never vote for a republican…not even for the school board.

PEOPLE..I will explain this slowly for the conservatives out there….there was a provision….not a guideline….a provision, in the bill that would allow a CONSIDERATION not a promise to a family making up to $82,000….

Now, one thing $82,000 where I live is a lot of money…New York City….not so much……

Second…ok…I have my lovely life….I make $82,000 and life is good…..OOPS my third child has leukemia all the sudden! The out of pocket costs far exceed my income and I still have to feed my other healthy kids…….or something unplanned happens and I need help for AWHILE….not forever…….under the bill my children could be helped….me, $82,000…not forever, but for a time.

THINK PEOPLE….
ALL CHILDREN DO NOT GET HEALTHCARE…SHOW ME YOUR STATS….

HAVE YOU EVER DEALT WITH MEDICARE? I DO WITH MY CLIENTS…IT IS A MESS!!!!!
I love how sexists conservatives assume I’m a man…and less intelligent ones take my story literally….

My children are fine….I don’t even have three kids…..

Goes to show a conservative can’t think in abstract!

Even if you believe that the poor are bums and baby breeders….you are comfortable with a child suffering for that? And you think you’re better than a dictator?
Freedom for all,

If your child….ANY child was sick you wouldn’t have to FORCE me to do anything, I’d give whatever I had or could for any sick child…even one doomed to be raised by a selfish, small minded person.

Smellycat strikes again! :-) You know why that is, smelly? Because bureaucrats are running the Canadian health-care system. I just can’t figure out why you can’t see the problem here. It took bureaucrats two weeks to get aid to Katrina victims, and you want to give them control of your health care. I just don’t get it.
Yes Frank, I have thought about that. Universal HMOs are not the answer - neither is socialist style health care. We could do worse than what we have now, and it looks like we may find out just how much worse.
