I noticed not one of those points lists any authority. Just more unsubstantiated left wing drivel. If you are going to post that crap, you should find some authority. add I just noticed it is from Move-On.com, or as say lie.on.com. Are you seriously asking anyone to accept what they say at face value. lj

I notice you provide no links documenting any of those accusations, so that people can see the details of what its about and use that knowledge to research the issue themselves, rather than just accepting a one sided portrayal of the situation. Absent any detail, I can only respond to some points and in very general terms. In Congress, Republicans have a bill that would let hospitals allow a woman to die rather than perform an abortion necessary to save her life. They are letting hospitals refuse to kill in order to save another, while not forbidding the killing. As for Head Start it has been shown to be ineffective, there is no sign of any lasting benefit for the child. Planned parenthood funding should be cut. If people want its services they can pay for it. If people want to help people who can't easily pay they can contribute. No one should be forced to pay for it. Restraining the increase in spending (which always gets called a cut, but rarely actually is, usually spending still goes up, often by a lot), on seniors is something that we don't have any choice but to do sooner or later, and if we wait to later the cuts will have to be harsher.

"Top 10 Shocking Attacks from the GOP's War on Women" Just be happy they don't amend the constitution to include the following like pope brumar and cardinal longnshort want them to. "Any woman who acts in such a way that she cannot give birth to as many children as she is capable of, makes herself guilty of that many murders." St. Augustine "Among all savage beasts, none is found so harmful as woman." St. John Chrysostom "Do you know that each of your women is an Eve? The sentence of God - on this sex of yours - lives in this age; the guilt must necessarily live, too. You are the gate of Hell, you are the temptress of the forbidden tree; you are the first deserter of the divine law." Tertullian "Let us set our women folk on the road to goodness by teaching them to display submissiveness." "Every woman should be overwhelmed with shame at the thought that she is a woman." St. Clement of Alexandria
