Oh don’t you worry. .. gonna get WAY worse with DeVos running the education department.

I’ve been bitching this sammmme point for over a decade. The GOP should be THROWING money at any program that aims to reduce their eventual welfare rolls that they also love bitching about... why is this so hard to understand?

I mean... you’d think all these dumbass GOP governors would be THROWING money at a place who indirectly reduces their welfare rolls... something they LOVE to rail against having to fund anyway... kinda counter-intuitive a little bit?

“We want to take away what you have to make ourselves richer!”

Sure, but lots of countries have had “enemies.” That hasn’t lead them to pursue campaigns against human rights in their own countries. In Canada, abortion is never on the ballot, because our Supreme Court has declared access to abortion/contraception a fundamental human right, and NO POLITICIAN, regardless of party,…

It’s so evident in everything they do. If they care so much about fetuses, why remove prenatal care in the health insurance? Why are they making the argument of ‘why should men have to pay for pregnancy care.’ They want women so financially desperate that we have to stay with a man. They want to make it more expensive…

Like, one party says “We want to make your lives better!” and the other party more-or-less flat-out says, “We want to take away what you have to make ourselves richer!” and then they win?

I don’t understand the American two-party system. How can you have one party in favour of every single thing a liberal democracy stands for: human rights, civil rights, equality and fairness (judicial, social, and regulatory), basic human freedoms, access for all to health and prosperity, safe workplaces,…

I call them forced birthers. They do not promote life in any way.

Planned Parenthood is an institution and should be treated as such. I honestly cannot fathom the balls they have to cut the necessary funding for it. Goes to show you how little they support women’s rights in American GOP politics.

But then politicians would say “see we don’t need to fund things for the poor at all!”

Even if our tax dollars went to abortion, which they don’t, so what. Lots of my hard earned tax dollars go to things I am morally opposed to. War, countries that do horrible things to women, etc. I don’t get to say no to these very expensive morally reprehensible line items in our budget, why should the right wing get…

This country sucks. Its citizens mostly suck. Everything sucks. Jesus tap-dancing Christ, why does everybody have to be so stupid.

Good job Pro-Lifers! You just made sure that there will be more abortions because there will be no Planned Parenthood to help women in those areas with birth control and family planning... You fucking idiots.

I straight up started to cry during this when I watched it.

I’m happy to hear the northern Colorado PP (the one I assume is serving most WY women) will stay open. That was the only place I could get exams and birth control when I was in college, and most of the other women in my dorm went there too because it was close by and inexpensive.

Yup, pathetic Hillary Clinton - why, she was only the most admired woman in the world for the last 21 out of 24 years. SAD! http://www.gallup.com/poll/1678/most-admired-man-woman.aspx

You don’t have to be likeable to be an effective President.

Eh, I think there is room to critique the nominee. Clinton was relatively controversial for a number of reasons and I think it’s fair to view the results of the election in that light. I know it’s anecdotal but a lot of the people I associate with, most are left leaning but consider themselves independents, wanted…

Joe is demonstrably correct. She was not a good candidate. Her efforts to come off as likable and folksy were transparent to nearly everyone. This has as much to do with the fact that she was being somewhat inauthentic as it does with the fact that the American voting public at large is a mess of moronic expectations…
