You can certainly have an opinion, but in my opinion men would get no vote on deciding a woman's health care choices...... I'm not a Dr. but I hope for women to have good health. Some do, some don't, not always a direct result of life style choices but usually the result of lifestyle choices individuals make. In any event I don't decide for others. You can't have it both ways> The reality is, voting is a part of the legislative process. Your sort loves to have this issue in legislation. It doesn't belong there in a free society but very few people recognize that fact. We mostly agree that what two consenting adults do in privacy is their business not ours, until they or legislation deliberately make it our business. You can't have it both ways> The reality is, when you legislate to have tax payer moneys going to abort 1.3 million babies per year. In 2002 Planned Parent Hood estimated the average cost at 400 dollars. That does not include other related health care costs. 400 * 1.3 million adds up to $520000000 per year. That's big business, who's business is it? The people who pay for it. The fake solution is to legislate things until everyone is happy with the rules. You can't have it both ways> Legislating moral issues will never succeed until you have a totalitarian authority in place. Americans are against totalitarian rule on principle. The reality is, you will not have personal choice ever in issues that are bound to legislated requirements. If you want what you claim to want, you would stop trying to legislate morality. If you were honest, however, you would admit that isn't really what you want. It wouldn't do anything for your party.
