Add an amendment that the woman has to name the father. Now THAT would make some serious shit hit the fan.

I'm thrilled that this damaged person is having abortions. It means she is not having children. People like her shouldn't have children. I wish some other people would follow her example.

And by the way, why no vitriol directed against the men who got her pregnant? She so clearly has a head full of bad wiring. Why can't men be responsible and avoid having sex with her? Or use a condom if they are so desperate?

This is a great example why abortion MUST be legal, affordable and accessible all the time, for any and every reason.

nice post and good points. I make my man's lunch every day - EVERY DAY - as well as my own. It saves us a bundle of cash. It is one of the many ways I show him that I care so much for him. And it makes his life easier. And yes, he is an excellent cook who knows how to clean and shop and clean and plan meals and clean and go to the grocery store and clean and often cooks for me and cleans...

I started a business and built it up successfully. I didn't make a huge amount of money, and I worked like a dog, but I had some good equity. But, always, lurking in the background was the fear of what would eventually happen with my health care policy. Every year, it became harder and harder to find a low-cost policy that I could afford. I don't smoke, rarely drink, have never broken a bone, never been hospitalized for any reason, and was only 48. Still, my premiums kept growing like Topsy. And because I grew up very poor, and saw one of my sisters die because we could not afford to provide decent treatment for her, I knew what could happen.

Almost two years ago, I had a health scare. It turned out to be nothing with nothing, but my health care provider was a real bastard about payments and authorizing tests. And then, even after nothing was wrong, my premiums went from more than $500 to almost $900. And I shelled out a lot of money, since my policy was a high deductible policy. If I had not been so careful my WHOLE FUCKING LIFE SAVING EVERY PENNY I COULD GET MY HANDS ON, I could easily have gone through a substantial amount of my net worth.

So, I sold my business, parked my money in numerous FDIC insured CDs until I could decide how best to invest it, and got a job with the government. I drive a school bus, make $20 per hour at 40 hours per week. I get great health care coverage, am a union worker, have a great disability policy, great retirement, etc. I would have loved to have continued in my business but health care is killing small businesses. We need a single payer system. I'd still be in business, employing people and paying taxes. But it would have been playing financial roulette.
