John McCain is out of touch when it comes to women's health care. Birth control is basic health care for women. But, John McCain ducked a straightforward question about whether he thinks insurance companies should cover birth control, like they do Viagra.learn more here: http://www.ppaction.org/ppvotes/pr-07162008_mccaintvad.html

Oct 13, 2008 - if your stats are correct then i'd have to say 40% is better than a higher number.look, you and i will never see eye to eye. if i can watch an abortion and not change my mind, surely you can see this.you have a right to your views. you don't have a right to legislate them. that's all i'm saying.so don't have any abortions. how's that?

Oct 13, 2008 - oh Lord, stgianna, your a catholic. i should have looked at your page first.well you just keep praying to mother mary (A DEAD HUMAN) to 'intercede' on your behalf w/ Jesus so he can intercede on your behalf with God the Father and maybe you'll get a pat on the head from the pope.

Oct 13, 2008 - Am I against those things? Not at all, and I didn't mean to create that impression. I was only pointing out that conservatives accuse judges and courts of "overstepping their authority," "legislating from the bench," etc. -- exactly what Southern segregationists accused the Warren Supreme Court of in 1954 -- when judicial decisions go against their personal ideology.

Oct 13, 2008 - ad hominum attacks will not make your logic correct.
stgianna Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - Why can we legislate on things like slavery and killing a 3 year old child but not abortion. By your logic all of these circumstances can be justified. Think about what principles you base your life upon and if they are right.

Oct 13, 2008 - Read a book called The 5000 Year Leap. It describes the inentions of the founding fathers in their own words. It describes 28 principles that the founding fathers used. Compare them to yours and ask which is sound and logical.Schools were intended to be handled on the local level becasue people have more control of what happens in their communities. The concept of a federal department of education is unconstituional (that power is not granted to fed gov) and socialistic.

Oct 13, 2008 - I'm told the IRS is not legal as well. Do you pay taxes?
Conspiracy2Riot Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - many people believe eating animals is murder.but i think that what you choose to put IN your body is your business.btw, are you anti birth control too?
stgianna Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - This is the problem with moral relativism. the idea that every thing is OK becasue you believe it is, is false. Either there is an absolute Truth or slavery, pedaphila and other crimes are OK because that is a particular person's opinion. If you cannot show a fundamental difference between a 1year old and a 8month old then kill each is equally wrong.In this case what you put in your body is sperm. it changes when you are pregnant since that is a human life.
stgianna Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - There is an article in the consitution that give this power to congeress.
stgianna Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - "what you choose to put IN your body is your business."Is it OK for a woman to put crack cocaine in her body when she is pregnant?

Oct 13, 2008 - Because ED is an actual disorder, and brith control isn't. So it would make sense that it's covered. And the abortion argument isn't as mush of an issuse as you people think it is in this election. (I'm not saying that it is good that they aren't covering birth control, I'm just explaining why).

Oct 13, 2008 - McCain doesn't think it's unfair cause all he cares is that his insurance is covering his Viagra :)

Oct 13, 2008 - so what about women who take birth control for disorders like endometriosis? that's a medical disorder and many women take bc to regulate it.

Oct 13, 2008 - lol.. i think he was having stroke or something,haha
ssbb8674 Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - I was just stating "why" like my comment clearly says. This isn't that big of an issue like I said, or else McCain would have an answer. Plus, McCain never siad what his stance is on it. So.... you people are stupid for running an ad, because you could be attacking someone who supports what you support.
knivesxout Says:
Oct 13, 2008 - are you serious...?if you're running for the highest position in the American government you better have all the answers to issues that people care about.
Conspiracy2Riot Says:
