President Trump

Right, but the fight to defund is about abortion not women's health. Would you be willing to take away their right to provide abortions to keep those other services?

That is unless you are sick and want to end it then "FU, you gotta keep suffering and pay your taxes."

And if you want to transition genders then "FU, you gotta pee where we tell you."

And if you want to smoke pot then "FU, drugs are bad and we gotta protect your health."

And you want to let your kids play outside by themselves then "FU, we need to protect our children because they are the future, and we wouldn't want them growing up without them learning they need someone telling them what to do."

This is why most conservatives are just one big joke to me, but I digress...

I've heard this claim a lot, but it's very misleading. It counts all sorts of tiny things--even if they take place during a single visit--as individual "services." So if someone gets a pregnancy test, is given some birth control, and gets an abortion...they say abortion was just a third of what they did. Here's a Washington Post analysis, which even discusses the exact same chart you posted, that goes into more detail.

The more relevant metric, since we're talking about them needing funding, is revenue. And that seems to make up more like a third of their clinic income.

It's also telling to compare abortions not to any other medical service, but to its alternatives. And the numbers there are amazingly lopsided:

So no, they don't only do abortion. But it's a huge part of what they do, and they do very little (contra the organization's name) for people who actually want to become parents.

I do, and I don't assume you care nothing about women's health because of the answer. The right is playing dirty politics with PP in my opinion but they are doing it because of their desire to limit abortions. If you feel an unborn child is a life like I do, it's hard to fault them. It certainly doesn't mean I want you to not get screened for cancer or have safe sex though.

i'm not going to respond anymore in this thread about PP. feels weird. if anyone still wants to bother, and it gets moved to an appropriate thread, cool

My thoughts as well.

Speaking of repealing federal mandates.

Buy your own damn abortions

People need to get beyond their paranoia and stop segregating bathrooms. Don't pass MORE legislation to give certain people the privilege to use either, that's just obfuscating a problem with another problem.

Trump threatens hard-liners as part of escalating Republican civil war

Are you feeling great yet? Im not. What a dark chapter in the history books this time we are presently in will be.

Why do you bite such obvious bait?

For ****'s sake, TONGO, it says it right in the article, Trump's trying get the Republicans who are further right than him to bend knee so he can pass this new healthcare act, THIS IS TO THE LEFT'S ADVANTAGE, yet you take the interpretation that casts it like Trump's trying start a friggen' civil war.

If it's a dark chapter in history to instil a bit of common sense and humanity in Republicans, then, yeah, I am all for it.

"Buy your own wars"

Yup, Republicans are humorous.

So, the Fat Man is resorting to bullying again? Not even surprised.


It baffles me how this man still has supporters. A man who lacks anything and everything presidential aside from the TITLE, treats everyone who opposes him with blatant disrespect and, honestly, he acts like a child throwing a tantrum. Even those nausea-inducing pictures of his raging face look like a child who was just told he can't have ice cream.


I'm not trying to be funny either--that's how he acts and it's unnerving. THIS is the man who holds our launch codes...


And what's worse--his supporters seem to want him to rise above the constitution and frown upon checks and balances. Whether his supporters see it or not--that's essentially a call for a dictatorship on their end. Frightening. Downright frightening. He THREATENS people like a dictator, for crying out loud.

You're calling him "Fat Man".

I can't believe you're still baffled.
