Are they really wondering if women using IUDs are having abortions all of the time? Really?
I disagree
I see no evidence of this assertion. If anything, one of the things that drive right wingers crazy is that no matter what they can't bring the Clintons down no matter what they do or say.
Leaving Bush out of it
It still seems like a nothingburger. Does anybody seriously think that THIS is going to ruin her chances to become POTUS- if there was even any actual lawbreaking that occurred?
I would be shocked and dumbfounded
If a POS "scandal" like this is going to bring HRC down. Seems like some people-on the right AND the left- seem way too eager to latch on to this so they can vent their spleen on her. Bush/Cheney did so many awful things that it *should* rightfully shut up the Republicans at least when it comes to scandalmongering current and future Democratic Presidents.
What I don't get
is that they not only want to NOT help people but many of them deliberately GO OUT OF THEIR WAY to cause other people they don't like to endure needless pain and suffering. That, and I don't get where they find all of the time and energy to expend on hating and making other people miserable. Most days, I'm lucky to go to work and take care of my kids and keep my sanity intact. I don't have time to notice who's in bed with whom or what women are doing with their uteruses but yet these people, who, by all appearances seem to have "normal lives", have all of this time and energy to go after LGBTs and women seeking to exercise their rights to their own reproductive systems. They can't seem to help themselves from wanting to nose around in everybody else's business. It's like it's their obsession to try to make everybody conform to their beliefs (or make them miserable if they don't). I just don't get it at all.
What is it that Yoda said about the progression from fear to suffering?
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. We see it every day in the Republican Party, especially in the House of Representatives and Republican-dominated legislatures.
Dan Coats (R) & Joe Donnelly (D)
I detest Coats, a formerly retired retread who was brought back to life as a ringer in 2010. I tolerate Donnelly, who is a Bayh-like Blue Dog Dem (which is pretty much the only type that can get elected here in Indiana and, frankly, he got a bit lucky when Richard Mourdock took down Richard Lugar and then killed his campaign with stupid rape remarks). Indiana politics have sucked for awhile now. They've held the governor ship for a decade now and the Dems have been driven to extinction in the legislature and the one major statewide office we won in 2012, the State Superintendent office, has been effectively neutered by Pence and the Republican-dominated legislature. I live in Indy, which is a fairly progressive bastion of light in an otherwise rural and rich Republican-controlled state.
Yeah
Let us know. I suspect, however, they will find SOME way to "morally" justify it. Remember, they are anti-choice, NOT "pro-life" in any real sense of the phrase. And their understanding of Jesus and his teachings are drastically different than what seems to be in the NT.
He WAS right about there being "reverberations on the region"
not so much on the "positive" part, however.
