I guess we need to redefine terms,
Pregnant used to mean you were having a baby.
Now we cancall it an infection, yes that would work. This way we men can continue our war on women by infecting them with sperm.
It would make it easier to say yeah I went out with bill last night and I let him infect me , igotta clean myself out so the infection does not become a virus.
If per chance some woman wanted to let the infetion continue then later on when the infection has been inspected and checked for any imperfections,
It can be approved for delivery and acceptance as a human.
Then and only then will the infection be allowed to come onto the planet and use the limited resources that Al gore has all tied up in his carbon banking system.
"with child" an old wives tale when silly simple minded people believed in an invisible God who animated organisms with the breath of life.
In the future unwanted viral infections can be completely eliminated by petri dish offspring creation.
We can also elinate this problem by starting in the younger years.
When a female first begins to produce eggs no wait that name wont work its not an egg, it is a cell.
When a male becomes able to make sperm we can take a sample and freeze it for future use.
The after the samples are secured we can sterilize everyone.

We can take off the premissible number of eggs/cells and freeze them for future use and sterilize everyone.

Now this will create a more manageable society as we can just let the kids begin havin sex at an early age.
It will be so cute to see the children enjoying each other with no consequence.
This will also make a happeir more perfect union,
As the Famous and superior Male Bill Mahr says the only happy people are the one who get laid alot.
And the ole ziggy fraud has proven that sexual tension and frustration must be eliminated al all costs.
So the answer is simple separate sex from pro creation and all is well.
The war is not on women the war is is on God.
But He is okay with that He is not at war.
God is on the throne and the war is for the throne.
He is letting the war go on not to win it or prove He is King of the universe.
But Being that he is Love he will let all comers war at him untill the run out of ammo and give up in desparation and bow ther knee and confess with their tounge that God is.
Then the war will end.And all will come to the knowledge of God.
And no one goes to hell .
All is forgiven and knowledge and wisodm will rule.
Many humans have the advantage of being weak and gvie up the War on God early aand can begin a life of peace early on.
This is what causes strife on earth.
Not all are yet convinced that God is.
We must be pai ient as Our Father in heaven is patient.
He waits.


We didnt come this far to get this far.

Yes, there is a Republican war on women voters

(FROM FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR SALLY KROHN)

Whether or not you think this amounts to a Republican “war on women,” it’s definitely a “war on women voters.”
Consider Mary Russell, a retired teacher from Iowa City, Iowa, who describes herself as an evangelical
Christian and “old school” Republican of the moderate mold. Regarding the Republican presidential
candidates, Ms. Russell says, “If they’re going to decide on women’s reproductive issues, I’m not
going to vote for any of them. Women’s reproduction is our own business.” Now she reports she may
vote for President Obama.


In a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll while in an imagined face-to-face match up, President
Obama currently trails Mitt Romney by six percentage points with male voters,but the president
has an 18 point lead with women --- across political parties.

It’s no wonder. As divisive as abortion rights still are as a political issue, women voters (and most men)
are overwhelmingly supportive of basic contraception. That's no surprise considering that 99% of
reproductive-age women have used birth control.

While women voters might rather focus on jobs and the economy, watching Republicans jeopardize
women’s health and reproductive freedom while slandering those who try and stand in their way is
enough to make women demand not only good jobs and fair pay but political leaders who respect the
liberty and rights of women in America.
President Obama’s campaign may be paying for fliers and advertisements to attract women voters,
but in this regard, Republicans are giving him the kind of help that money can’t buy.

The GOP WAR ON WOMEN also extends to the Supreme Court:
The Supreme Court has ruled that State workers who are denied unpaid sick leave required by federal law
cannot sue the states.

The 5-4 decision is a setback for millions of employees of state agencies and state colleges, and it voided
in part a provision in the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. Among other things the act said that
employees had a right to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to recover from an illness or childbirth.
The rights of employees of private companies are unchanged by the ruling.

So to clarify the latest step by Republicans to display their hate of Family and Women...
~ first, conservatives want to make sure you get pregnant by limiting access to birth control...
~ then force you to have the baby by limiting access to abortions...
~ then if you get fired for taking time off to have the baby, you have no right to recourse
for being fired.

(from Nicole Belle)

Box, I think the "war on women" argument has fallen flat.  The longer it goes on, the more it sounds like women want everybody else to pay for them.  If this administration continues this argument, the less it sounds like women's rights and more like women's privilege.

MOVE ON???  The GOP wishes this issue would MOVE ON!!!

Look at the number of Women who voted for Republicans in the past... who are now jumping ship
because of the relentless Republican War On Women...

Quoted Text
It's not that the rhetoric coming out of the Republican presidential campaign is suddenly going
to make women around the country start voting Democratic. Women, for the most part, do prefer
Democratic candidates, and have in presidential races at least since 1992. Four years ago, women
preferred Barack Obama over John McCain by some 13 percentage points (the gap was 41 points
among single women).

But as the conversation has gone from abortion to contraception — which is, um, virgin territory in
presidential campaigns — anecdotal evidence seems to suggest that it is pushing female voters
even further away from the GOP.

Women fight back in the Republican War on Women:

The latest Economist/YouGov poll finds among WOMEN:
President Obama 55%
Mitt Romney  38%.

Among men:
Romney 45%
Obama  43%.

The more the Republicans slam women, the bigger the Obama victory in November.

But when you add up the numbers, they make no sense.
There are more women in this country than men, but I'll weight them as 50/50
The overall poll should give Obama a 49 - 41 lead.. I haven't any other polling that gives that wide of a margin.. it's usually within 5 points.

Polls are only good for toilet paper... Reagan was behind Carter until Mid to late September, GHWB was dead even with Clinton until early September. Things do and can change.

I quite agree.  Polls are a snapshot on the conditions at the time taken... days, and even hours will change
the outcome.
With elections the question is often "WHEN"... as with Bush/Gore, days may have changed that outcome by
a huge margin.

It's too early in this election to tell anything about November.  Polls now tell us about conditions now.

In most every election there is an 'incident' or an 'issue' that will impact the final vote.  A terrorist strike...
an increase or decrease in jobs or unemployment... a foreign assassination... so many issues can
impact the vote, and there is no way to predict what that 'incident' or that 'issue' will be.

Campaign managers will focus a poll on a single phrase, and how those word effects the campaign.
"HOPE & CHANGE", "STAY THE COURSE", "PEACE WITH HONOR"... millions are spent on polling a phrase
in hopes of turning a few percent in favor of their candidate.

I expect that both Obama and Romney will each have an "unexpected event" that will impact the election.

I just came across this quote on the same issue:

"I think their assessment is that Romney is much less a threat to them as "events" are a threat to them,
and I agree with that. Romney cannot beat Obama, only "events" can beat Obama."


-- James Carville, on Obama facing Romney in November.

Republican  Congressman:  "Women, Donate to Democrats"

Rep. Richard Hanna (R-NY) was the only Republican congressman at an Equal Rights Amendment rally yesterday
and he advised a crowd of mostly women to give their money to Democrats.

Said Hanna:
"I think these are very precarious times for women, it seems. So many of your rights are under assault.
I'll tell you this: Contribute your money to people who speak out on your behalf, because the other side ...my side
... has a lot of it. And you need to send your own message. You need to remind people that you vote, you
matter, and that they can't succeed without your help."

(Huffington Post)
