Full of bull

FOCA means "freedom of choice..." Freedom of choice for who?? Does the health care professional who doesn't choose to take part in such a grizzly, barbaric procedure have the freedom to say "No?" Does the innocent baby have the choice to live or die? Does the hospital have the freedom to refuse to perform abortions? FOCA means only one thing...freedom for a woman to kill her unborn baby. From my viewpoint, a woman's choice ends when she chooses to have unprotected sex. She can choose to leave her panties on, or choose to remove them.
I caught a clip of Obama's campaign speech at the Planned Parenthood Convention, in which he promised he'd sign an executive order to do away with all the anti-abortion laws in all the states. Can the president undo all that legislation by a stroke of his pen?
I'm hoping that it was just more of his political campaign blather, and that like a lot of his other promises, he'll ignore it. He should learn that a closed mouth gathers no feet. I find it hilarious, watching him and other politicians with hoof and mouth disease trying to back track their promises on the evening news. Listening to the constant barrage of pandering spin doctors makes me dizzier than a cat in the spin cycle of a washing machine.
Talk is cheap because the supply greatly exceeds the demand. Reminds me of the mountain lion who ate an entire bull. He felt so good afterward he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral? When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.
Stupidity got us into this mess; why can't it get us out? I make it a point never to vote for an incumbent. I believe that politicians are like diapers. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason.

  1. Okay, so you know I agree with you both on abortion. HOWEVER, I also happen to know that not every woman has a choice to leave her panties on. It's a complex subject. It shouldn't be easy and it shouldn't be quick. I also happen to believe that being pro-life shouldn't end at birth. I find it amusing that so many Republicans equally as adamant about capital punishment as they are about abortion. I've heard all the justifications for their arguments and I remain unconvinced.

    I also know, Mother of mine, that you do in fact vote for incumbents as long as they are Republicans :)

    Love you both,

  2. I agree that if you're pro-life, it needs to be cradle to grave. Anything else is hypocritical.
