It has been a while since I have wrote, and I apologize.
Lets tackle the issues now..
Sarah Palin, pro life Governor of Alaska, and the new VP pick for the McCain Campaign. Ok, so she is pro life. Whatever, that isn't going to win her any brownie points. She is the mother of a 17 year old, underage drinking, knocked up, out of marriage, teen. So much for that abstinence only education huh? Maybe if you spent more time actually being a mother and a wife instead of someone who you aren't, your 17 year old wouldn't be knocked up by a boy who's only priority is playing hockey.
He doesn't want to marry Bristol, he is being forced into it by everyone around him because it is the "right" thing for him to do. He doesn't want any children, but because of your pro life stance and brainwashing of your minor children, your daughter won't abort, when in reality it is probably the best thing for everyone involved.
Now to bring this Bastard Baby Daddy to the Republican National Convention as part of your "family" to try and do damage control, is not a smart move on the part of the McCain Campaign. I think everyone in the GOP and Republican party needs to realize is your bid for the Presidency is now over.
You tried to fool women into voting for McCain/Palin but you don't realize that women in this country is not going to vote for a....
*Pro Life
*Failed Parent
*NRA Supporting
Alaskan nut with NO EXPERIENCE!
So what if she is a woman? She is as misogynistic as the Bush Administration.
She needs to go back to Alaska and continue to ruin that state and stay out of National politics because she has only made herself look stupid.

9/11
This 9/11 I just want to remind the American people of a couple things.
First, who is responsible for 9/11. The party that is responsible (Osama Bin Laden) is still prancing free through out the deserts of the world 6 years after this tragedy took place. Makes you wonder why huh?
We can't "find" him? No. Our government simply has concerned itself with other things. Like pretending 9/11 had ANYTHING to do with Iraq, and invading them too for the hell of it.
The only US terror attack that Saddam was ever linked to was the Oklahoma City bombing.
I fully support the actions of our troops and I always will. But the Americans that are here on the home front need to remember little tid bits of information like this when the 2008 election comes. We do not need another 8 years like we have just had.

Pro Life or Just Plain Stupid?
When engaging a person who does not share the same belief system as yourself it is only common knowledge to use polite and educated terms in attempt to make your point seem valid and educated right?
Not the pro lifers!!!! Vulgarities, slurs, carrying on like small children told "no".
Screaming at women who disagree with their stance, calling them names, throwing things at them while they are attempting to receive medical care?
Silly me but I wouldn't consider that something very "pro life".
I would think of that as "anti life" or "anti health care" maybe simply immature because these people do not agree with the standards they insist everyone must live by.
Maybe they didn't get the memo that we live in the United States of America and not Iran. Women here have freedoms, just as much as the men of this country. They cannot be forced to believe what someone else thinks is right or wrong.
Morals are subjective. What YOU may think is moral, the next person may not and in this country that is fully acceptable.
I think Gay Marriage is a great idea and benefits for everyone in this country. You may not.
I think abortion is necessary in todays society.
You may not.
Idolizing such ignorant, racist, uneducated figures like Ann Coulter or George W. Bush only shows yet another downfall of the "pro life" side.
Pro life? Until birth of course. Then the are on their own. Personally I think that the "pro life" movement should stop calling themselves Pro Life and correct the term to what they really are. Pre Life.
Anything to get those fetuses born then screw 'em!

"I am constantly aware that I am working for a giant corporation, and that’s frustrating. In the first season, my character became pregnant and she wasn’t going to have the baby. But she couldn’t have an abortion; she had to lose the baby. And whenever you see a character on TV lose a baby, it’s because someone is saying you can’t have an abortion on television. You can’t even say the … word. You have to call it a procedure. I find it all so intensely frustrating and limiting — it’s like the current administration and the religious right vilifying things that are real and shouldn’t be judged."
— Grey’s Anatomy star Sandra Oh, Time Out New York, September 7, 2006
"Let us unite around a common goal of reducing the amount of abortions. ....Not by making them illegal as many are attempting to do, or overturning Roe v. Wade and undermining the constitutional protections that decision provided, but by preventing unintended pregnancies in the first place through education, contraception, accessible health care and services, empowering women to make decisions."
— Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY), speaking to members of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association, The New York Times, June 14, 2006
"It's ... alarming that they make no allowance for a doctor's judgment that carrying a pregnancy to term could injure a woman's health. But these are the burdens some abortion foes would impose on others in the name of their own particular ideology. Shame."
— Op-ed writer Scot Lehigh on the bill passed on Feb 22, 2006, by the South Dakota legislature that bans most abortions in South Dakota without including an exception for a case in which the life of the woman would be jeopardized, Boston Globe, March 3, 2006
"Believing a woman's place is in the home, [anti-abortion extremists] have declared war on women's rights. A woman who cannot control her own reproduction is hardly in a position to run for the U.S. Senate, start her own company or join the military."
— Cynthia Tucker, editorial in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, January 22, 2006
"We are here to advocate that the decision as to whether or not a particular woman will continue to carry or will terminate a pregnancy is a decision that should be made by that individual; that, in fact, she has a constitutional right to make that decision for herself."
— Sarah Weddington, arguing the landmark case Roe v. Wade before the Supreme Court, decided on January 22, 1973, granting women the right to safe, legal abortion nationwide.
"The rise and righteous indignation of the powerful religious right have been fueled by the transformation of women's lives. So many of the objections to legal abortion over the past 30 years have been objections to female sexual freedom."
— Anna Quindlen, questioning the motivation of abortion opponents, Newsweek, July 11, 2005
"One of the things we're very proud of at Planned Parenthood is we don't bring any of our personal bias into our jobs. We believe women should be accurately informed of all their pregnancy choices. There has been a lot of misinformation handed out in many of these ["crisis pregnancy"] centers, and ... they're scaring women with post-abortion syndrome .... There is no medical evidence of any kind that post-abortion trauma exists ...."
— Beverly Cooper, vice president of public policy for Planned Parenthood Association of Utah, Salt Lake Tribune, July 9, 2005
"Making abortion illegal never has and never will stop women from having abortions."
— Kate Looby, clinical operations director at Planned Parenthood of Minnesota North Dakota South Dakota, on legislation in South Dakota that would make it a felony to perform abortions if Roe v. Wade is overturned, AP, February 11, 2005
"[A]bortion opponents held the 32nd 'March for Life.' We barely notice the way the word 'life' was hijacked and locked in the right-wing dictionary. 'Life' now means fetal life; life begins with conception and ends with birth."
— Ellen Goodman, Boston Globe, January 27, 2005
"Forced motherhood should not be the punishment for failed contraception or a contraceptive lapse, or for being human. Women are more than their wombs."
— Adele Horin, The Sydney Morning Herald, August 7, 2004

Pro Life Healthcare Workers
Pro Life Health care workers don't want to work.
Let me go out on a limb here and say, most people who are in the health care field, or who are getting into the health care field know all the types of health care there is including reproductive health care right? It is not like these workers are being taken off guard. They know when they decide that is the career field they would like to go into that it entails things of this nature.
What is so difficult about performing the task that you have been hired to complete?
It all seems pretty cut and dry, just like in any other career line. If you cannot perform the task that you have been hired to complete you should be let go from your position.
If a McDonald's worker at your local fast food chain refused to serve someone because their personal opinion was that they do not need that Big Mac and fries, they would be let go effective immediately and the McDonald's chain would possibly have to be subjected to some type of legal suit because of the actions of this worker.
This should be no different.
People in America are getting too lazy.
They want to be paid for jobs they are not doing. They want to sit on their lard asses and make excuses for why they can or can't do something. There needs to be a stop put to it now before it gets any worse than it already is!
Don't like the laws?
Don't want to do your job?
Get another one!

The Launch
I have really been wanting to launch a pro choice web blog for a while and recently events have helped to cause a shift in my personal schedule allowing me actually to have a bit of time to maintain and upkeep a productive and informative Pro Choice web blog.
My web blog will be working hand and hand with other sites on the internet including my very much active Myspace page and blog.
Planned Parenthood of CT
I am planning on tackling major issues in the Pro Choice and Political communities, especially in light of the 2008 election being so close. Exciting isn't it? The thought that we are finally going to be free from Bush and his politics that are driving out Country into the next Great Depression.
Anything from current Supreme Court cases, to local abortion news around the country (not only my home area of Connecticut).
I hope that everyone comes to enjoy and participates actively in great discussions and the blog itself.
