Roe v. Wade WILL be overturned
if McCain wins. Bottom line. This nutjob isn't even seeking a second term. He would tear down this country in a matter of 4 years. Women would regret even laying our eyes upon this man's face. He makes me fucking sick.

1. the courts would be filled with rethugs. America would be put back at least 100 years
in progress. Chilling. I hope women and everyone realizes how important this election is.

9. I doubt Pharma will take kindly to one of its most profitable products being outlawed
The Pill is a cash cow.

Quite honestly, I don't think most American companies would want it outlawed either for a variety of reasons.

3. Ain't none of us librul boys want to see it overturned neither.
And a McCain administration would do just what you say it would do.

Frightening, especially after 8 years ofsetbacks already.

4. with abortion AND any form of birth control outlawed, women may as well..
...give up their jobs/careers, forget any education, put on a burka, get barefoot, resign themselves to regular rape and beatings and unwanted pregnancies, and forget it - because THAT'S WHERE WE'RE HEADED if McShame wins.

7. The part about abortion and birth control being outlawed DEFINITELY not sarcasm...
...it is TRUE. The rest is slightly sarcastic.

BUT - if they've outlawed birth control and abortion then WHAT'S NEXT in their neverending quest for control over women and women's lives? THAT is the road that McShit (and for that matter bu$hit) have or will have us well on the way down. You know it. I know it.

5. young women need to start making their presence known. i marched for choice for years
i marched before i had my child, and took him with me for years after.

The young women who will be negatively impacted by Bush plans to rule BC pills as abortion causing agents NEED to make their voices heard.

At this point (post menopausal) I have focused my energy on peace and equal rights for everyone.

8. Me thinks you're probably right...
...That's why this election will be THE most important in my lifetime.
