I usually order at least one book a month off of Amazon. I will look for “Storm Center” when I make out my next order (usually if a book has been out for a while a used copy can be purchased for about $5 shipped so I probably won’t be out much cash buying it).

At least in MI there are plenty of families willing and able to adopt children that these mothers don’t want. Would you say the same thing about senior citizens or the mentally retarded living in poverty — that I should take them all into my home because I advocate allowing them to live out their lives rather than executing them (unless they are independently wealthy)? “Elective” abortion is the same thing as shooting your parents in the head when they can no longer care for themselves IMO — almost no one would seriously suggest that as reasonable. It is a moral responsibility for society to care for these people and I will gladly contribute my share with my check to the IRS each quarter as I have all of my adult life.

Also, I am not worried about placing all of those “unwanted babies” that would be born with an abortion ban, babies in general are easy to find adoptive homes for, the bigger problem is providing for the mentally disabled and financially poor senior citizens. I can think of one cousin that could not have children naturally, she finally had to take in two infant foster children and adopt that way after the kids birth parents parental rights were terminated because there weren’t children to adopt any other way. Ban elective abortion and there will be many elated adoptive parents that want to love and care for children but can’t have any the natural way who will finally be able to adopt children.

Mharris127 then lets send all those babies you want to save from abortion to your house so you can feed and clothe these kids you are saving for the next 18 years.

MHarris if you get a chance read the book “Storm center” it does a GREAT job of explaining the Supreme Courts thinking on abortion and it is NOT what everyone says/thinks it is. The ruling was all about Federal law trumping state law, particularly as it pertains to murder.

Abortion — another subject that perplexes me. How can someone kill their own flesh and blood and how in the hell can the SCOTUS sanction such cold blooded murders — give me a fucking break! When someone female starts giving me that “woman’s right to control their own bodies” bullshit I like to ask if a mother should be able to shoot a nine months past birth baby in the back of the head, too. If they answer no I ask them what in the hell is different about abortion. That pisses her off every time as they realize how much of a cold blooded killer she is. A woman has the right to control their own body — by not getting knocked up in the first place. Once a woman gets knocked up I think the rule “your rights end where others rights begin” applies — including the right to live. Unless the mother’s life is in dire jeopardy from the pregnancy abortion should be prosecuted the same as murder one right down to the death penalty (I am not against execution if the person committed a horrible crime such as premeditated murder or penetrative rape, that is different as it is intended to serve as a deterrent and stop people from killing or raping any more whereas that unborn baby didn’t do anything wrong to deserve execution — which is what an abortion is, pure and simple).

Robert’s Rule of Order. What a fucking crock of overly formal shit! That is the most overly stylized piece of poppycock I have ever read and heard. We were supposed to use it for credit union board meetings (held once a month like clockwork, I bet my former employer would try to have a board meeting as scheduled even after 9/10ths of the world was wiped off the face of the earth by nuclear holocaust), about the only meeting we strictly followed that piece of shit for was the annual meeting held in front of the credit union membership (most of the membership showed up at the first CU I worked for, those same members made up the audience after we merged that CU into the other one I worked for but that CU was fifty times the size so that group made up a small percentage of that CU’s membership). Fortunately our board members got along with each other just fine so there was rarely any arguments during board meetings.

NBC may have held it back for a time, but I really doubt that the Clinton campaign had any prior knowledge of the tape. I also doubt that NBC held it very long after they knew of it. That kind of thing just doesn’t stay under wraps once found. Hiding it for months, just to spring it at a key point in the election, requires way too many people keeping their mouths shut.

I’m a Dem (and voted for Hillary) but I believe they did a sandbag job on Trump. Two weeks before the election all of a sudden this stuff comes out? Where were all these women 10 years ago when it happened?

If this came out six months ago the Repubs could have put someone else up to replace Trump and they might have had a good shot vs. Clinton. They waited until a couple weeks before the election so nothing out be done to replace Trump.
