What do you think about Prs. Obama stating that abortion won't be covered by the "public option" if enacted?

LovesTravel Ah, yes, just the type of rhetoric that keeps the conversation civil. Whatever happened to disagreeing without being disagreeable? Congratulations for lowering the bar yet again.

LovesTravel I think that anything that drives a woman into using risky alternatives to seek abortion is counterproductive. There is no question that a great many women will continue to seek abortions. The only question is weather they will pursue safe means or unsafe...

I was talking to a friend the other day and she says that she only wears her jeans once and then washes them. I on the other hand wear my jeans at least 3 or 4 times before washing them because they feel better once they are worn...

LovesTravel I'm with your friend. I wear my jeans once, at most twice, then wash. The same with my husband. I worry more about what's NOT seen when it comes to being "dirty." I like my stuff to smell fresh.

LovesTravel Yes, racism still exists. I think most of us have experienced this ugly prejudice at one time or another--no matter our background. One of the most insideous aspects of racism is that it has a way of turning its victims into its practitioners. Once racism...

LovesTravel Nice posting, owlwings. As a person who has experienced just of touch of healthcare in the UK, I have only high praise for the NHS. I am fully aware that the system is not perfect. In my opinion, however, it is far and away better than ours. In particular, it...

LovesTravel One more time. This passage NOT an advocacy for the Court to engage in redistribution of wealth. Obama is not "lamenting" its failure to do so. It is a description of what the Warren Court did and did not do, based on the role of Court as a pillar of...

LovesTravel No one said the president is "allowed" to amend the Constitution, though he is certainly "allowed" to lobby on behalf of principles he supports--just as George Bush did with his support for an abortion amendment and a marriage amentdment. He is also "allowed"...

LovesTravel You contradict yourself if you agree that constitutional amendments are sometimes necessary to guarantee individual freedom, yet that the Constitution was/is not deeply flawed. It is, after all, the product of human thought and human compromise. It is a...

LovesTravel Hmmmm, I don't really understand your point about Obama not upholding the Constitution. That's a pretty big accusation to be delivered in a relative vacuum. Obama swore to uphold, protect, and defend the Constitution. I don't think any president has ever taken...

LovesTravel I don't "hate" Sarah Palin, but I find her shallow and naive. I felt (and feel) that she underestimates the diversity and the depth of "real Americans"--a distinction that she seems to limit to those who agree with her opinions. As Vice President, a politician...

LovesTravel In my opinion, you don't have a problem. Your ex has the problem. It's real simple. If your ex doesn't like the clothes you have for your son, then he will need to provide something more "appropriate." (Sheeesh, the child is 5. Suits are not required. In...

LovesTravel Very clever, Ted: Global warming is a myth. The ice caps aren't melting. The oceans aren't rising. The rain forests aren't diminishing. The average temperature of the ocean isn't rising. Blue crabs are still plentiful in the East, and salmon is...

LovesTravel In my view, the Bible is a magnificent piece of literature. It represents and documents man's struggle to understand his place in the universe. The same can be said for other great religious writings. Is it inspired? Yes, of course, it's inspired by...
