22. I can't stop laughing

They finally figured out the connection.

I wish they would fund family planning in Arkansas and Louisiana. Some of these little girls are running around here with 4 or 5 kids and they're not even out of their early 20s and have as many daddies as kiddies. .

We went to family planning clinics for birth control, to confirm pregnancy's we would later to decide to keep and for our right to choose and for cheap Pap Smears. They did a whole host healthcare services for women.
I support choice and family planning. Some of these kids (young women) in my son’s generation don't have the resources or even the education about resources that we had just 20 years ago. I feel so sorry for them.

I've tried to explain to my son and his friends that most so called pro-lifers are against birth control pills, too because they call them abortifactants and believe that most forms of birth control are the same as abortion.

They (the anti-choicers and the religious right) will probably rain hell down on these Republicans for doing this.

They (the fanatical anti’s) won't stop at closing clinics; they think anything that prevents conception or stops it is interfering with god's plan and they want rape babies carried to term and babies born of incest. They (Operation Rescue) passed out a pamphlet that claimed that a baby of incest would bring the family closer together.

I know of one of the Operation Rescues leaders named Carmouche who said that we didn't need birth control because you could fit every man, woman, and child on the earth inside the state of Texas. (I wonder how these Texas Republicans would feel about that.)


Carmouche also said that all of us environmentalist were of the anti-Christ.
