Most people who are trying to invade the privacy of women are ALSO against helping the children in the cities, who have horrible education and are almost 70% guaranteed a spot in jail when they are grown. Why do you want to cut programs to single moms. How is it anything other than hypocritical to make a lot of noise about abortion but not give a DAMN about minority and poor children? The general response when I ask about helping these people is: well they shouldn't have kids! I guess they shouldn't fall in love or *gasp* have sex either. I guess the poor should be breeders for infertile wealthy couples, have babies and give them to the rich. Why are you guys against SEX EDUCATION and CONTRACEPTION? The ideal world of June Cleaver, where we all get married to company men and only then lose our virginity is pretty and all, but unrealistic, and perhaps you should devote more time to helping the HUMANS WHO ARE CURRENTLY ALIVE. And, I'm pregnant so I THINK i know, it's a FETUS NOW.

When, GOD WILLING, my future baby can survive outside the womb and is born, then it will be a BABY. I call it a baby now out of HOPE, not biological fact. I don't want to get an abortion (WHO DOES?) but I don't have ANY BUSINESS to tell others what to live, especially as there are SO MANY kids homeless, parentless, and living in abject, hopeless poverty, probably a few miles from all of our homes. You wouldn't look twice at these kids. WHY???

Because The American right tries to push an agenda of uncompromising Social Darwinism.If you can't afford it,you don't deserve to get it,that's the whole idea in a nutshell.

Social Darwinism, term coined in the late 19th century to describe the idea that humans, like animals and plants, compete in a struggle for existence in which natural selection results in “survival of the fittest.” Social Darwinists base their beliefs on theories of evolution developed by British naturalist Charles Darwin. Some social Darwinists argue that governments should not interfere with human competition by attempting to regulate the economy or cure social ills such as poverty. Instead, they advocate a laissez-faire political and economic system that favors competition and self-interest in social and business affairs. Social Darwinists typically deny that they advocate a “law of the jungle.” But most propose arguments that justify imbalances of power between individuals, races, and nations because they consider some people more fit to survive than others.

This is jungle capitalism,survival of the fittest.It also shows most of the American right isn't pro life but pro birth. Once you're out of the womb you better have parents with money because you're on your own.

That's the issue here.The American right ranting and raving socilaism is gonna take over America with no basis in reality while they are pushing social Darwinism,According to ThinkQuest:
Social Darwinist thinking stems from the fact that the theory falls into the “naturalistic fallacy,” which consists of trying to derive an ought statement from an is statement. For example, the fact that you stubbed your toe this morning does not logically imply that you ought to have stubbed your toe! The same argument applies to the Social Darwinists’ attempt to extend natural processes into human social structures. This is a common problem in philosophy, and it is commonly stated that it is absolutely impossible to derive ought from is (though this is still sometimes disputed); at the very least, it is impossible to do it so simply and directly as the Social Darwinists did.

My husband and I didn't start having kids, didn't get married until he knew he had the benefits and the pay to take care of us. It's called using the head that's on your shoulders. I have no problem with people whom have hit hard times getting temporary help, but for goodness sakes, don't make it a way of life! Get an education, training... These people are no better than my husband and myself to work hard for their families. My daughter made a mistake, and we're expecting our first grand baby any day now, but she works a full time job, has worked since she found out about her pregnancy. She also takes classes toward her degree. Yes, life is going to be a lot harder for her than it would of been had she listened to her dad and I, but ultimately, the teaching has come back to her and she's taking responsibility. Teach your kids that nothing in life is free. Teach them work ethics, family values... Grant it, they may stray, but they'll come back. Just like my daughter did.

Yes, the Republicans are actually pro-birth, not pro-life. Once the kid is born, they would rather see the kid die then have the govt. intervene and provide support and care to a poor family. It doesn't make sense to anyone with a decent head on their shoulders. These same people always talk about family values and Christianity too. Apparently Jesus would approve of people holding something as materialistic as money in higher regard than human life. Explain that Republicans?

Unfortunately what you are saying is true. We dems call it the "love the fetus, hate the child syndrome" Most republicans suffer from it.
