| I was promoted into a management/supervisory position, and loathed it. I've never been a team player, except in those instances where the team really needed someone who did truly exceptional work when they left her alone and let her get on with it. The last five years at work were a nightmare for me... |

| An acorn that's begun to sprout is a tree. You can call it a sapling, but it's a tree in its beginning stages. And I'm pretty sure if some mugger stabs a pregnant woman and kills the baby inside he can be charged with murder. Now I'm not trying to do a pro-life number. I'm just being realistic abou... |

| While I understand all of the arguments in favor of abortion, but it's hard for a lot of society to get past the fact that it always results in ending someone's life. I think most of society can handle it Also I think my right to not have to risk death or potential health problems if I get pregnant... |

| Men's sperm is responsible for 100% of unwanted pregnancies. Let's legislate mandatory vasectomies for all males at puberty. Later, if they want to reproduce and can find a willing female, they can have the vasectomy reversed. What's that I hear? It's not right to make sweeping legislative decisions... |

| The whole point of Alabama's blatantly horrible law is to get the case back to SCOTUS so they can strike down Roe v. Wade. Once that's done, they'll start working on criminalizing birth control. None of this is about "the sanctity of life." It's about controlling and punishing women, and m... |

| I've been married for 26 years, and we have two children. I think having them nine years apart was immensely beneficial for me, though not planned, as ONE child was very disruptive all on his own. I don't think I could have managed two little ones at the same time. I love my boys more than I can say... |

People are complicated. They can be right about some things and simultaneously wrong about others.
General Kelly is correct in thinking that Trump's an idiot.
He's also a deeply misogynistic, racist hypocrite. |
