    If you thought that, after Sarah Palin, Louie Gohmert and Rand Paul, tea party politicians just could not get any worse, wait until you meet Dr. Milton Wolf. Wolf, who is a candidate for the US Senate, is currently employed as a radiologist, in Johnson County, KS. Earlier this week the Topeka Capital-Journal exposed the doctor’s disturbing habit of taking pictures of patient x-rays and posting them online. The photos were posted along with some really batsh** comments that might make you think Milton Wolf belongs in a mental ward, rather than working in a hospital.

    your forced to bump a thread of old news. the OPs poll was taken 5 months ago. what kind of dishonest crap are you trying to pull? that poll was taken before the train wreck of Obama care. have you seen the recent polls? the most recent PPP polls of 2014 Generic Congressional Vote has republicans up by 2 points. republicans have erased an 8 point lead democrats had and gain two into the positive. that is a 10 point swing

    Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) vowed to only vote for bills that follow biblical principles if elected to the U.S. Senate in Saxby Chambliss’ place. The problem is, he also calls himself a constitutionalist. Paul Broun said, specifically, “I am a proven conservative, consistent constitutionalist. There are four C’s that describe who I am and what drives me: Consistent, conservative, constitutionalist, Christian.”

    Paul Broun is hardly a constitutionalist.

    What people like Paul Broun don’t seem to understand at all is that constitutionalism and biblical law are at odds with each other. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution does it say anything about our laws being biblically based, and the 1st Amendment specifically prohibits Congress from establishing a state religion. :wall::wall:

    Actually this is being discussed in another thread and no one can't point out exactly what was objectable, you can find all sorts of xray pictures of bullets and an assortment of objects lodged in peoples bodies all over the internet. And it wasn't a "habit" he had posted a few with some funny comments, but none in which anyone could be identified.

    But would you care to revisit Obama's comments about bowling?

    I'm sure the relatives of these people who's x-rays were used without permission didn't find any humor in it at all.

    What a christian thing to do. There is no low too low for this type of person!

    Virginia State Senator Steve Martin seems to think that pregnant women are just host bodies. Therefore, they have no right to terminate their pregnancies. Sen. Martin made these thoughts clear in a Facebook post shortly after Valentine’s Day, in reply to a Valentine he got from reproductive rights advocates who were disappointed in his voting record regarding reproductive rights.

    Actually he believes it wrong to kill innocent human life, do you?

    On your totally unconnected link:

    “I don’t vote for black people, lady. No, ma’am. I don’t vote for black people. They got their place, I got my place. That’s the way I was raised.”"

    And what about black people who only vote for black people?

    Yes but I don't delude myself into thinking that I know when life begins. However, I do know that the woman carrying that child is alive and they do in fact have rights. Now let me ask you something. Do you support contraception and comprehensive sex education that can avoid unwanted pregnancies? Do you support programs like health care, food stamps, and pre school that might encourage people who might think about termination of a pregnancy to keep the child, knowing that they will have some help?

    What are the circumstances?

    We kill innocent human lives all the time, and I'm not referring simply to zygotes either. Actual human beings - fathers, aunts, children. We do this for a variety of reasons - to secure energy resources, to defend allies, to prevent a greater loss of life. To say that doing so is "wrong" is to say that accomplishing these goals is wrong.

    When it comes to abortion, compared with the massive benefits we get from it, the loss of human lives means next to nothing. We have too many people on this planet. Women ought not be forced to give birth to a child that they won't love and don't want, and we all know what kids who are unloved and unwanted turn out like. And then there is the simple fact that prohibiting abortion doesn't actually stop them from happening - all it does is allow the state to punish a person for making their own medical decisions, thus denying them individual autonomy, while ensuring that women continue to have abortions in unregulated and dirty environments, resulting in many unnecessary deaths and the spread of disease.

    All and all, I could care less that we kill innocent human lives. We are animals, and from time to time, animals have to kill other animals. To defend what is theirs. To improve their lives. To prevent overpopulation. That's life. Get used to it. All that matters is why you are doing it, and if it makes sense to do so.

    Didn't ask you when you think it begins, do you believe it wrong to kill innocent human life?

    I have nothing against contraception and believe parents should comprehensively teach their children about sex. What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

    I doubt people think about such things other than they can get more of them the more children they have so as they exist today no I do not support such programs. If they continue to have children they cannot provide for I support placing the children into protective services and require the mother disclose who the father is then both of them having to help pay for the cost of that care until they are able to provide for the child.

    So again what does that have to do with the price of tea in China.

    And what about black people who only vote for black people?

    There are non in particular other than if the mother's life is in danger which subsequently would mean so is the child's.

    Speak for yourself, are you now saying you support killing innocent life to go along with your support of KKK violence?

    So said the NAZI's about the infirmed and institutionalized.

    So if a child is not loved and wanted that is justification to kill it....................man you really dig yourself some holes.

    If you have evidence more women died from abortion in the past than today please present it.

    Why don't we just start up some death camps then and get rid of all the innocent people who are burdens of society then, got a preexisting condition and no health insurance, give them a bed to die in?

    I didn't really expect that you'd be able to come up with a suitable response. I knew before I even posted it that your response would consist of something like this: "Derp herp, U DUMB, derp a herp a herp, NAZIS double-double derp, DEATH CAMPS."

    It's just awesome. Had I not made such a valid point, I'd almost consider what I did trolling, because I knew that it would evoke a really hilarious, emotional, irrational response.

    To answer the only sound and reasonable question you asked, we shouldn't get rid of all innocent people who are burdens of society because they are already alive, and killing them doesn't really do anything other than save us money. They are conscious, feel pain, have personhood. A collection of cells doesn't have any of those things. I have no qualms with banning late-stage abortions, as I find it completely unreasonable for anybody to wait that long before they decide to abort, and there is no doubt that fetuses in that stage of development feel pain. But beyond that, why should I care about "killing" innocent life when it enables a policy I agree with? We enable the government to do that all the time.

    Our sanctions on Iran have killed tens of thousands of civilians, all because we don't want them to have a weapon that we do. Our actions in Iraq killed somewhere between 100-500,000 civilians, all because Junior had a hardon for Saddam Hussein. Our support of brutal dictators all over the world has resulted in untold millions of deaths, and so I don't really care for useless moralizing about the sanctity of human life.

    Also... http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2013/12/10/abortions-in-nigeriaareillegalunsafeaandcommon.html

    As for the number of deaths due to abortion now versus in the past, in America? Almost impossible to say. Hard to find solid statistics from a reputable source. I did find this, but beware, it does come from a pro-choice website.

    And I'm sure in your mind that makes it all OK. I'm not even gonna take the time to point out that if it was your loved one it wouldn't be OK because you've already pointed out to me that you remove emotion from every thing. And I am beginning to believe you!

    Planned Parenthood has been instrumental in toppling these radical candidates. After the 2012 election, in which Planned Parenthood spent $15 million, research showed that Republicans’ support of restrictive laws on abortion and birth control likely cost them the presidential election. Down the ticket, data from the Sunlight Foundation showed that Planned Parenthood was the most successful lobbying group in the 2012 election, having spent 98 percent of their campaign money on winning candidates.

    Republicans, meanwhile, were left trying to quiet certain voices in the party in an attempt to change their anti-woman image.

    The midterm campaign season is already brimming with offensive comments on rape legitimacy, libidos, and marital rape, giving Democrats ample ammunition. :clapping:

    Politicians opposed to President Obama’s landmark healthcare law, the Affordable Care Act, have been scrambling to either repeal or replace the democratically passed and judicially upheld law. Unfortunately, one of their latest plans would actually cost millions of people the healthcare plans they now have while raising taxes on 150 million Americans. Georgia governor Nathan Deal, however, has proposed an idea he thinks just might work: stop handing out emergency care.

    Georgia has continuously seen some of the highest infant and maternal mortality rates in all of the country. Its yearly death rate is only surpassed by 11 states in the nation. People are literally having to be flown to hospitals in other states during emergencies because their medical care facilities had to be shut down due to Deal’s refusal to accept Medicaid funding.

    Groups such as Living Blue in Georgia, Better Georgia, and Moral Monday GA are all fighting for Medicaid expansion in the state as a way to keep their hospitals’ doors open. Nathan Deal, with his priority being to satisfy a constituency base that supports the Affordable Care Act, but not Obamacare (hint: they’re the same thing), wants to stop providing emergency medical care if a person cannot afford it. Is it literally going to take dead bodies in the streets before Georgians wise up and stop voting for the GOP?

    How would I know if it was one of my "loved ones"? Go do a google search for xrays of impalement and see the shear number of such pictures posted.

    Again what was wrong with what he did?

    So IOW since the Democrats can't win on their record and have no proposals to fix the mess they have us in they will once again try to make abortion an issue even though when people are polled and asked to rank issues it is near the bottom.

    It's you right wing nuts who are making abortion an issue by infringing on women's reproductive rights! It may be at the bottom of the list because relatively few people are directly effected by it, but ask the woman who can't get a mammogram or cervical cancer screening :wall::wall::wall:
