It’s NOT just reproductive rights that affect the way women view McCain. Don’t forget that this is the guy who believes that women just need “education and training” instead of being paid fairly in the workplace.
hoooold on cotton pickin’ minute! you mean to tell me that, that… oh hell, no! I’m not Mel Gibson’s wife and I don’t intend on having 7 kids like my gramd mothers both did!
McCain’s on record for singling out Chelsea, a woman, and making a cruel joke about her, yet a few bitter supporters of her mother want to vote for the windbag.
I have a good feeling that these tensions will dissipate further as the days pass. They may temporarily fire back up in a few circles if Hillary isn’t placed on the ticket, but the future looks very bright for Obama. He’s poised to take some swing states this November. I consider it possible, by my own brief calculation, that Obama may exceed 300 electoral college points.
So those women veterans coming home from Iraq with no GI bill will have no birth control to go along with the no health care and no help with education. Well godfreakinblessamerica.
Even worse than his policies, the Supreme Court will shift even further right under John McCain. He pledges to appoint Justices in the mold of Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.
Women will lose the rights over their bodies. The ability to sue their workplace over discrimination will be restricted, meaning more women facing discrimination at work. Things like diversity programs for athletics in public schools/universities will be challenged and could be defeated under McCain’s far-right Supreme Court. Women’s rights will be rolled back in a number of areas.
abortion has been around for millenia. Few babies die from abortions and that very small percentage of late term abortions usually are based on extreme circumstances. Most of these events involve cellular masses and potential babies
No Not at all the same. I know several woman who have had abortions. I each case this woman faced very serious and difficult decisions. In each case the choice they along with their professional medical doctors made was the correct one in their circumstances. This is a complex and private matter. To suggest you know what is best or right versus wrong is arrogant to say the least.
and no matter what the suffering of the patient or loved ones my be no “plug can be pulled”? Now what about the animals? They are living things too right? And it goes without saying that all wars are out.
M is upside down for Dubya, which is for Women.

June 10th, 2008 at 5:00 pm“Why women give McCain a zero.”
Because you get what you deserve ………..
June 10th, 2008 at 5:01 pmIt’s a good thing that McCain has all those ‘feminists’ who were supporting Hillary deciding to vote for him rather than Obama.
It’s such a principled stand on their parts…..
June 10th, 2008 at 5:02 pmMisogynistic old bastard. Feh. He can kiss my liberated feminist ASS.

June 10th, 2008 at 5:15 pmFrankly, I wouldn’t give McCain as much as a zero.
June 10th, 2008 at 5:15 pmMcCain ‘08.
Because Cheney isn’t angry or crazy enough.

thanx, McWars! he’s a real charmer, ain’t he?
June 10th, 2008 at 6:56 pmHoly crap. John McCain wants to ban all birth control!!
June 10th, 2008 at 7:00 pm(Unless this ad is misleading or something, but I know that can’t be true.)
Methinks Chelsea Clinton ought to go on the stump and berate McSame for what he is – a doddering, corrupt old fool.

June 11th, 2008 at 12:03 pmOne would have to first assume a mass of undiferentiated cells was a life. So in your world no abortions under any circumstances eh?
June 11th, 2008 at 2:10 pmso I suppose no death penalty in your world either
