in the new health plans. I did not want to fund a war of choice in Iraq and all the other crimes of the bush regime, but I do not remember getting a choice. So if you hear them complain, just tell them to suck it up, like we had to for eight years.

1. I'm with you, my friend. They can kiss my ass.
GOPers are using up good oxygen, that's my view of them.

2. "I'm tired of my tax dollars going to liberries! Let people buy their own books!"

In the past week I heard two people pronounce the word 'library' as 'liberry'. They're both over 60 with college degrees and should know better.

4. Why fund elective surguries?
Will we cover face lifts and tummy tucks as well?

Where do you draw the line on covering elective surgeries?

6. well if you do not understand the difference
between getting a tummy tuck and making a choice to end a pregnancy, I doubt that there would be any common ground between us and I will leave you to wallow in your ignorance.

8. Sure I understand the difference..
But it is still an elective surgery, there are a very wide range of elective surgeries between those two extremes.

Where do you draw the line? A hip? A knee? Laser eye correction?

It's not like it's a catastrophic cost is it?

5. Womens' reproductive choice is what counts. Oddly, the anti-choicers would change their tune...
...if their wife, daughter or grand daughter was raped by an illegal alien or (based on how these Palinist Birther Christianists operate) a black man, they would find some excuse to abort the baby.

10. Isn't it rather funny in an odd way that
these fetus-lovers run around crying about 'entities' that NEVER WERE. Yet there are so many children, women, men, elderly, etc. that need help and these fetus-lovers are deaf to them. Just here in Ohio, we have 10,000 UNWANTED children who need homes and love.

Fetus-lovers are lovers of nothing on this planet....ever. I guess that's all they are capable of loving. lol.

14. My sister had a great reply to that...
"Your right to own a gun is no more or less than my right to have an abortion"
Her and her husband own guns and hunt.

also to your main point nearly 80% of the women covered by Private Plans have abortion included, and they have no voice in that either.
