Planned Parenthood Investigation Is An Abuse Of Government Resources, Democrats Charge

Yes, I agree Planned Parenthood shouldn't be getting kicked around. But part of the courts argument was that the Government had no business getting between a decision made between a woman and her doctor.



"Since Griswold, the Supreme Court has cited the right to privacy in several rulings, most notably in Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), where the Court ruled that a woman's choice to have an abortion was protected as a private decision between her and her doctor."

"Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973),[1] was a landmark controvers­ial decision by the United States Supreme Court on the issue of abortion. The Court decided that a right to privacy under the due process clause in the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constituti­on extends to a woman's decision to have an abortion, but that right must be balanced against the state's two legitimate interests for regulating abortions: protecting prenatal life and protecting the mother's health."

Scott Beason Apologizes For 'Aborigines' Remark

Either way it was a statement of contempt. Along with the mocking statements he made about "black voters" that was also part of the transcript­.



"During court Wednesday, McGregor's legal team presented a transcript of another recorded conversati­on in which Beason spoke with a group of Republican legislator­s about what would happen if the Legislatur­e passed electronic bingo legislatio­n and put it before voters in the election in November 2010.



Some said there would be a big turnout by black voters because casino owners would offer free buffets and gambling credits to attract black customers and then bus them to the polls.



"That's right. That's right," Beason said in the transcript­."

I'm not an expert but I believe racism is part of human nature. But what is supposed to set us apart from the people of just a few generation­s ago is education and how we deal with that part of our human nature. Apparently not everybody got that education or upbringing­.

Because people like that think their opinion is all that matters. They are right regardless of facts and circumstan­ces. Nobody else matters but them! Truly sad.

Rick Scott Backs Drug Tests For Welfare Beneficiaries, Public Workers And Himself

You left out a lot of context. For example:

"She's been homeless since she was 18. She's now 27 and is pregnant again right now. She says she's staying off drugs until she gives birth but it's tough with an abusive boyfriend.



"If he finds out I went to a treatment center, his words were if I leave him or go to treatment center or anything like that he'll kill me so that's the reason I'm not leaving yet," said Souza."



Society has failed so many people and will continue to until we fix that part of our community. These are problems we are aware of but rather than acknowledg­e that they are diseases which can be treated when recognized certain people would rather demonize them instead. Rick Scott is a sleaze who either doesn't realize everybody has a story or, more than likely, doesn't care. As long as he makes his millions he could care less. He has proven that by ripping off the tax payers with the whole Medicare fraud deal.

Meghan McCain RedState Parody Post Removed After Lawsuit Threats

You are talking about a group of people who took a satirical article about the President, posted on The Onion, as the gospel. People are going to talk junk about Meghan McCain but if more Republican­s thought like her we might not be in the mess we are in now.

The only reason she is concerned about people thinking it was her is because of the form it was written in. But people will continue to be intellectu­ally dishonest just so they can trash someone who considers themselves a Republican­. I agree that she should realize that boat has sailed but at least give her some credit for trying, to no avail, to bring them back down to earth.
