so i got back to Salve yesterday (and i'm actually really happy to be back) and Ben told me all about FOCA...which i'd actually never heard of before.
FOCA = Freedom of Choice Act.
this act, if passed, will lift the ban on partial birth abortions that was passed in 2003 that we fought so hard for. it will also make the right to an abortion a fundamental constitutional right, remove parental consent laws for underage girls seeking abortions, allow abortions to not be limited to only licensed doctors, and force doctors employed by faith-based hospitals to perform abortions.
THIS IS A DISGRACE.
now, i've decided to be patriotic and support Obama as he is our president. and i didn't like it when Bush was in office and democrats were saying all they had to say about him and are now wanting us right-wings to be patriotic. but i'd be a hypocrite if i wasn't. but...i pray that Obama has the sense and conscience to NOT SIGN THE FOCA. it was proposed because it was said that women did not have the same equal rights as men as the right to an abortion was not a fundemental constitutional right; BUT! NO ONE, not a man, not a woman, not black or white or straight or gay, HAS A RIGHT TO PLAY GOD AND DECIDE WHO LIVES OR DIES. these are innocent lives, no matter how they came into existance.
my rant ends here.

You are a moron and it's people like you who ruin the United States for everyone. I wish they would ship you instead of the terrorists to Guantanamo. It's white trash like you that make the rest of the world hate us. Instead of concerning yourself with things you couldn't possilby understand why don't you go on a crusade to try and stop the pedophiles that are infecting society.... much like you.
Pedophile- –noun Psychiatry. an adult who is sexually attracted to young children. (dictionary.com)
I don't believe having a stance against abortion constitutes that I have sexual feelings toward children. Your are most certainly entitled to your views on the subject, but next time you wish to criticize mine as opposed to being open minded, try using the correct vocabulary word. True pedophiles infect society every day and it breaks my heart.
Um, you are an idiot. That brilliant girl was saying that you infect society much like pedophiles...not actually calling you a pedo. Nice comeback doucheface.
I'm sorry if that's the way I understood the comment. I still don't appreciate being compared to a true disgrace to society of that magnitude. I can understand thinking that people such as myself who tend to lean to the right are infecting society...but that does not make me someone who "ruins the United States" the way that a pedophile would.
Look. Just because she has different ideas than yo do does not give you the right to call her horrible names like "doucheface".
I personally don't agree with her stance at all either but she has a right to express it on her own blog!!
Isn't that why we live in America? Freedom of speech? If I can't do anything about people tormenting me about the color of my skin, calling me a terrorist and such, then why shouldn't she be able to express her opinion on HER blog.
Get over yourselves already!
