1. Today’s so-called ‘conservatives’ don’t even know what the word means. They think I’ve turned liberal because I believe a woman has a right to an abortion. That’s a decision that’s up to the pregnant woman, not up to the pope or some do-gooders or the Religious Right. It’s not a conservative issue at all.

  5. Romney To Uninsured: You Can Die On Your Own

    generalbriefing:

    feurety:

    liberalsarecool:

    A conversation last nigh on Jay Leno regarding Romney’s infatuation with repealing Obamacare and provisions like covering pre-existing conditions:

    Romney: “People with pre-existing conditions, as long as they have been insured before, they are going to be able to continue to have insurance.”
     
    Leno: “Suppose they haven’t been insured.”
     
    Romney: “If they are 45 years old and they show up and say I want insurance because I have heart disease, it’s like, ‘Hey guys. We can’t play the game like that. You’ve got to get insurance when you are well and then if you get ill, you are going to be covered.’”

    Some people with preexisting conditions didn’t just refuse to buy insurance; many of them lost it when they lost their jobs.

    This targets the less fortunate and takes a multi-millionaire prick with no heart to say. Mitt can’t even fake the compassion like George W.

    Republicans- fight tooth and nail for the unborn. After that, you’re on your own, sucker.

     
    1. Woman: Can I have birth control?
    2. Government: No.
    3. Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
    4. Government: No.
    5. Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
    6. Government: No.
    7. Woman: Well, why can't I have birth control?
    8. Government: Because. Sex isn't for recreation. It's for procreation.
    9. Woman: But it can help regulate my period and benefit me in other ways.
    10. Government: Too bad.
    11. Man: For no reason other than for recreational sex, may I have birth control?
    12. Government: Do you have a penis?
    13. Man: YES, YES I DO!!
    14. Government: WELL HOWDY, VALID CITIZEN. You can buy condoms by the dozens. Here, here's a pack of special condom for "His Pleasure." Oooh, these come in different colours and flavours. Here, try these. They have ribs on them. And this one glows in the dark!! LOL OMG DICK LIGHTSABER!!
    15. Government: But seriously, you're a man. You can do what ever you want.
    16. Woman: But-
    17. Government: Shut up, you sinning, freeloading hussy.
