so you admit that our liberal statagy is working. good for you, nice to know..

as an aside.. the usage of less vs fewer has confused me for some time..

it seems I was told the proper use should be "fewer" babies.. yet i find news casts, media , and posters all use the "less" in these writings..

What is the grammar rule??


maybe i should ask auntiE.. or some other teacher.. thanks..

Gosh, no wonder the right wingers are nuts..

You make all this assurtions with not even the lest bit of information..

FYI,,, i have watched ultrasounds of all my kids.. I was in on the delivery of all. even my oldest little girl, which was a bit unusual at that time.

Yes, your child is always your child, even when they have a 50 year birthday, which my girl did just this weed end. a combination for 3 birthdays at once. the young boys got huge gifts.. including a new bike for the little one and a super duper kayak for the 12 year old..

so let me point out that is quite a leap,, the love for your own children vs the near impossible situation women find themselves in for one reason or another..

It is the womens decision... not mine, not yours not anyone else..

I bet you didn't call your grandkids blobs of tissue when you saw them on the ultrasounds. Are only those babies who are ripped out (Yes...they are sucked out with a vacuum - called "Vacuum Aspiration...or Suction A******n) are blobs? (After 13 weeks, the baby is scraped out of the uterus, called a D&E.) Imagine that happening to your grandchildren if your daughter or daughter-in-law decided she didn't want to be pregnant because it was inconvenient. Those beautiful grandchildren of yours would not be here today.

And NO, it should NOT be only the woman's decision. The father of the child has every right see that baby live. What she's doing does not only affect her - there are two very important other people involved...the father and the baby. It is truly amazing that this murder is allowed - nevermind in the numbers that it occurs....650,000 a year! That is not just peanuts.

How many wrong assertions can you make in one reply???

A fetus is a blob of tissue for weeks... the ripped out you always use is a description of the much rarer late term a******n.. after 16 weeks usually.. a D&E is done in minutes and does remove that blob..

Why even project any of my family into this which is not a personal discussion but a national policy issue?

If any of my family felt the need, I would very much hope they had a compelling reason..

As for the reason of other, they also probably see the reasons as compelling and pressing.. money, education dad on the run.. etc.. but seldom inconvenience..

If a father is in the picture,, then yes i agree with you. many times daddy has simply walked a way. Leaving mom to endure all the work and stress of being a single mom, in fact or in action.. compelled to use the safety net we provide for these events.. medical, housing, care and education to name a few..
all those things the republicans can not stand for, h**e spending a dime on anything like that.. let the darn kid die, but sure as heck get him born..

We have covered the story on the baby..
