I've seen a bumper sticker that says "If you are anti-choice and you are a man, go get a vasectomy" But this solves the problem better than that

It was during the thick of the controversy about legalizing same-sex marriage. He said that with all the outrage about same-sex marriage, he thought it must be mandatory! The same argument holds for the abortion issue - good illustration!

Did a segment on people who won't date anyone from the other party. Their position seemed to be that it was ridiculous cause none of the people they interviewed could give any coherent reasons. Disregarding that voting is about values and dating someone who doesn't share your values doesn't make for long or healthy relationships, my answer to them (had they interviewed me) would have been "I'd never f**k someone who doesn't think I should have the right to choose what happens to my body and if they are pro choice but vote Republican they are even worse because that means that their fiscal priorities trump my body integrity rights"
