Isn't it strange what a bit of research and fact checking can do for someone?

Answer 1

Let's talk about some fact checking... First off it's democrats consuming the welfare, even in red states. If we look at a county by county map comparing election results and the usage of food stamps and other benefits we can see that Mr. Bloomberg up there hired a pretty bad journalist. I'm not even going to bother debunking "feminspire", the entire article was just opinion, Ireland and Poland banned abortions and they're doing fine. In the end you posted two opinion pieces and told us to check our facts, how do you feel about maybe checking yours?

Answer 2

Actually Fetuses react separately to stimulus in the 16th week. That may not be the first trimester but it is early in the second one.



BTW, most of those "lies" that got debunked, I never heard of before. Many of them are taking true statements that I have heard and modifying them so that they are false. "All women suffer depression" All the pro-lifers I have ever heard say it is 50%, not all. Most I think are completely made up to prove their point or maybe a single pro-lifer said it and they are crediting all pro-lifers with believing it. Liberals do have a hard time not seeing everyone as part of a stereotype after all.

Answer 3

I'm not sure why they see the paradox in areas with high pay outs to vote for them to be reduced. People vote based on the problems they see in their own neighborhood. The people who are experiencing the harm caused by welfare programs are the most likely to reject it through their voting. It makes sense to me.

As for the abortion article, I have never even heard of most of those arguments. They didn't make sense. Abortion is obviously an unpleasant thing...I'm not sure what the argument is about.

Answer 4

Basically, it's one big cycle of "Things need to go back to the way they were back then!" Except the people saying this have no clue of the way things were, only what the Republican party is telling them.



These are the people whose favorite quote is "Things aren't like they were in your father's/grandfather's day." As if things are supposed to stay the same, and never change what so ever in twenty, fifty, or even a hundred years.



Basically, the Republican party is the backwards party.

You can see this from their sex education of blind leads the blind, to thier regular education that buters not only history but the Bible itself in an attempt to block progressive learning.

Look at their opposition to welfare, and then look at who is on welfare.

The very veterns they sent to war are treated like trash under their shoes.

Children whose lives were so important when they were a fetus are now to be tossed in ditches and left to die.

Answer 5

Only strange when you believe one side of a discussion. See, the Nazi's had the same idea. How strange that Jews, Slavs, other races and Gypsies would have such strange beliefs about Nazi camps and showers. I mean Nazi's thought their version of late term abortion and the social welfare the camps provided suited non Nazi's perfectly.

Answer 6

Yeah "strange" how Kermit Gosnell goes to prison for performing a common abortion procedure done by thousands of abortion doctors (and that is what is called an "oxymoron") because he performed them OUTSIDE the womb. "Strange" how while I can't claim every person on welfare does drugs, smokes cigarettes, and drinks alcohol all to excess but "strangely" the many I've know DO (must be because I am poor; I just don't talk about it but live it). "Strange" how the MSM and the Obama Administration calls the respiratory illness responsible for 5 deaths and 600 children, CHILDREN, hospitalized and yet its called a "mystery illness": mystery solved... http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6332a4.htm "Very strange" how desperate you all are getting in the last months of your long ascension to power you didn't even t to share... but when you lose the Senate, here's some words you people told us to bring us comfort which may help all of you: "get used to it"

Answer 7

abortion is murder disregarding what immoral leftists will say about a fetus not being a human. and welfare has encouraged too many to be dependent on the government spending our tax money on people on Welfare which has killed a lot of jobs and businesses.

Answer 8

according to liberals abortion keeps down crime, and welfare.



but if blacks make up such a disproportionate # of abortions (check your stats) who do libs think are committing all the crimes, and collecting all the welfare?

Answer 9

I was just taught to work for a living and not kill my kids. Not all that tough a concept. Why is it for you?
