<< or are you afraid to answer them??????? >>

I will answer.

- 1st question: The effects of eighty million unwanted pregnancies and 20 million unsafe abortions, per year, on the poor.

This is a tough question. We all know that the Republican Party is responsible for cutting spending for family planning overseas. We know that overpopulation is causing millions of families to live in misery and desperate poverty, and causes millions of tons of raw human sewerage to be poured into the oceans of the world each year. Think of that the next time you eat fish.

- 2nd question: Does the lack of funding for family planning and womens' health services overseas contribute to the millions of beatings and rapes, infanticides and so called "honor" killings?

Another tough question. I guess the Republican Party doesn't care about the misery they cause around the world, as long as they can spread their dogma that sex should only be used for having babies, and that women's only worth is bearing "male" babies.

The report by the U.N. Population Fund said discrimination and violence against women "remain firmly rooted in cultures around the world".

Isn't that the truth. In this country, the Republican Party wants to treat women as second class citizens, by denying them access to safe and affordable abortion.

Well...... I tried to answer your questions, as best as I can.
