2012 Political Predictions

Watching a 12 years old talk about Planned Parenthood is pretty funny though.

Why is that funny? If more of Oklahoma's kids had access to their services and learned about such things before they became sexually active, perhaps we wouldn't have such a ridiculously high teen pregnancy rate.

[Townsend]

Simply aimed at the lowest common denominator. Yikes.

Like most Oklahoma voters.

It's sad that a 12 year old needs to know about planned parenthood.  Correct education from her guardian/s and schools would be better.

Ding, ding, ding!

[Townsend]

You see my post earlier about Oklahoma's governor and her plans to better Oklahoma's education? 

We will continue to need Planned Parenthood for quite some time.

Leave it to you to be amused by something so tragically sad.  12 year olds... given everything else Romney/Ryan is all about, I bet they think she should have been in a factory somewhere for the last few years.  Like those overseas sweatshops they and their cronies (of Croney Capitalism fame...) have helped corporate America go to.

Here's an assorted of their dream for America...a little R & R for the kiddies...

That little video brought to you by the Jewish Council for Education and Research.

According to the R & R group, I was definitely getting the impression that Obama had thrown Israel under the bus...go figure, why they would support him.  Maybe they know something about Romney that the rest of us don't??

Oh, wait...I guess we are starting to know, now that he has been opening his mouth.  Geez...I was thinking that this guy might actually be a reasonable alternative (for a while).  Disappointment.

President Obama's new ads capitalize on the stupidity of his base, by treating women like helpless idiots, dependent on government for the care of their own bodies.


Target sells all three of the popular birth control formulations for a flat fee of $9 a month ($108 a year).
Nuvaring for about $60 a month ($712 a year).
30 Condoms for $29.97 (about $300 a year if you use one every day). 

You can get a Toyota Corolla for less than $18,000.

If you had sex every day (like I do), it would take 60 years of condoms to equal $18,000.

Perhaps Republicans should offer to buy Toyotas for women in exchange for votes?

Once you give people their Obamarubbers, it's hard to take them away.

I find it interesting that you think that you know the details of someone's medical needs better than they do. Has the clairvoyance struck again?

I suppose growing up in a house full of women, and having a family of my own to support has probably clouded my vision.  Perhaps most women do blow through 50 condoms a day, and I am just unaware of it?

My wife's IUD only cost $188 and it's good for 5 years.

I think it would be different if he were referencing "health care" but he's not.  He's referencing "Birth Control," so the ad is really silly unless you are an idiot.

You make the mistake of assuming that what works for people you know works for everyone. There are people out there for whom IUDs are not an option. There are also people out there who can't use generic BCPs.

Yeah, but notice how they are using completely absurd hyperbole like every woman out there needs the most expensive method?

Secondly, why does everyone want to abdicate their own personal responsibility for birth control onto their parents, the government, or their employer?  I sure as hell didn't make my company or government pay for my vasectomy.  It was not an expensive procedure.  Last I checked there was no Constitutional right to birth control.

Our choice of birth control is my personality, or so I am told.

There's been a few people I've know for whom retroactive birth control would have been a great idea.

That is expensive.  I stand corrected.

Probably makes the case for extreeemly late term abortions.
