no more abortions!

[Baron Von Crowder]

Like to see how it's "unconstitutional" for a clinic to be within 30 miles of a hospital. That's where, exactly, in the Constitution?

Another activist judge running on feelings. "What they think is best..."

where does it say in the constitution that women can or cannot have an abortion anywhere they want? Actually, where in the constitution does it give the government the power to regulate abortions?

If its in there, Id like to know, so please do post it up.

You're right. Fed government doesn't.

Read 10th Amendment.

You are aware that Texas has a state constitution as well, right?

Quick! Everybody needs to run out and get one right now whether they need one or not!

Damn. I guess Wendy Davis wasted a perfectly good catheter...

I wont go into if I am for or against abortions, but I am against the government telling me what I can and cannot do because it is what they think is best.

I'm against paying for them. BTW, I thought you were a guy?

[racrguy]

I'm against paying for them.

They're cheaper than the alternative

BTW, I thought you were a guy?

He is, doesn't mean he likes the government telling him what to do with his body.

[Maddhattter]

I'm against paying for them.

Then don't pay for them. No one is being forced to get, or pay for, an abortion.

And killing people suspected of a crime is cheaper than an actual trial. Cops kicking in your door because they think something may be in there that would interest them is cheaper and easier than a warrant.

Not true. If you pay federal taxes, you're paying for abortions no matter if you like it or not.

[Maddhattter]

You are right. My blanket statement was painting with too broad a brush.

However, it's only in cases of rape, incest, or if the mother's life was physically endangered that Medicaid can cover them. Even then, removing a woman's biological autonomy is not, in my opinion, the way to go about resolving that issue.

I'm not that naive. Even though they say taxpayer money can't be "allocated" for it, that's a crock. It can't be proven.

Outside the usage allowed under the Hyde amendment, it can't. Planned Parenthood keeps detailed public records of their finances to consistently verify that they are not using the money for abortions.

Your naivete not withstanding, this baseless assertion cannot be proven because all the evidence supports the fact that you are not funding abortions, outside of the allowances made in the Hyde amendment.

Yet you stated my money DOES provide for abortions, exceptions or not. There's no valid way to even prove those "exceptions".

[Maddhattter]

A point that I already conceded.

There's no valid way to even prove those "exceptions".

Only if you ignore all the evidence.
