Do you have daughters???

It doesn't matter to me how good the economy is if I cannot fully participate in it as a free person. If I am forced to stay pregnant, or forced to feed/house/provide or pay for care for another child, it limits my ability to fully participate in this dream economy of yours. I'm not a big "equal pay" person but one could argue that if the economy discriminates against me, subtly or directly, for being female, for being pregnant, for needing maternity time off or for being a mother, then I am also not free to participate fully in your economy.

If the government passes laws govering my body then I am little better than another piece of property being passed around in this economy.

I'm not willing to condenm my daughter or anyone else's to a life of poverty, a life as a second class citizen, if she makes a mistake and gets knocked up, or if (god forbid) she is a victim of legitimate rape.

And I don't think for one second that these old, white men are unaware of the disadvantage they are placing women at when they make us bear the costs of parenting. I think it's one more way for the white male to maintain his supremacy.

So in a way you are right, it IS the economy, stupid.

Are you living in iran , no one is taking away or wants to be involved with your vagina. you are very obsessed to think the world rotates around your vagina.

You are a simpleton that cannot see around your vagina and can't see or understanding bigger and more crucial issues that really exist.

You expect me to believe that you know about a Presidential document about which nobody else knows, but you don't know about the attempt to rescue the American Embassy officials held hostage in Iran?

Well that's a different question entirely. One I can't help you with because I'm a white, well-educated, new rich, usually Republican voter who doesn't want to see more and more of my hard-earned money being taken by Democrats and going to God-knows-what and not doing much good. And, yes, I'm a woman and I have daughters.

This is something I see lots of -- lots of seemingly educated people who vote Republican mostly because they're rich and want to keep their money. Okay, I get it. That's the priority for some -- hell, if I were rich, who knows? Maybe I too wouldn't want to share a tiny percentage of my wealth with people who really need it. But anyway, what about all of the lower-to-middle class people who vote for R/R? That I don't get. The rich and greedy people, okay, maybe I can understand your position a bit. But those who aren't rich - why are you voting for R/R?

ANd nobody has chimed in on that PP who asked a R/R supporter to provide some basics on these candidates' positions/plans on some of the top issues. I can't find that information anywhere!!

No rational definition of 42% (paid in taxes last year) is considered "tiny."

Our President had no substantial role in offing him other than saying YES when asked to proceed on an operation that was planned for years/months, by highly skilled leaders and special forces teams.

If the mission had failed and all the SEAL team members had been killed, would you have blamed Obama? As a follow-on, who do you blame for the failure of the attempt to rescue the Iran embassy hostages?

Good question but, it did not happen. Our President had a signed document abdicating responsibility if it did happen so, who cares what I think? I have no idea about your do.low on.

REPUBLICANS ARE NOT FOCUSED ON VAGINAS - WHY ARE YOU? THIS IS A CREEPY "VAGINA MONOLOGUE" that is not funny. If you are worried about getting pregnant, GET a JOB and buy BIRTH CONTROL.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Thank you, I have a job, and I have birth control. It's not me I'm worried about. As a wealthy, educated white woman abortion is not likely to be my personal problem.

It's also not my personal problem when black people were made to sit in the back of the bus. It's still wrong and I won't stand for it. Even if my personal selfish interests are not affected.

If Republicans don't care about "vaginas" - by which what we actually mean is women's reproductive choices - why are they focused on passing laws on ultrasounds, laws defining pregnancy, laws talking about mentruation, and laws talking about making people bury their fetuses? You know those are all actual bills proposed this past year by Republicans, right?
