You must be one of the white people who haven't had their rights in employment and education suspended by the Democratic Party. You see, in their view, some whites have rights, which always includes themselves but other powerless whites don't have any rights. They reason they don't need our votes and the reverse discrimination can always be covered up by America's corrupted networks. And as far as anger goes, there is no group more angry than Feminism!

rtb74,

The abject selfishness of the liberal and the social democrat won't permit any discussion about the unborn child - they don't exist in their minds!

As an non-angered southern white I'm proud of our newly elected president and laughing my ass off at those white angry southerners, unlike rev phelps, who demean themselves more than our race.

That's what I actually came here to say. But I let myself get distracted by a troll.

Call you legislators; call Beebe. Keep the pressure on and tell them not to support these cruel and unconstitutional bills.

I know you will reject this, because it's factual, but I'll try to explain it.

Most people get their insurance through their employment. This will continue to be true even after Obamacare is fully implemented. Insurance is part of an employee's total compensation. Employees earn insurance coverage through their labor, just as they earn wages. In most cases, employees also contribute some of their wages towards insurance coverage.

An employer has no right to dictate how their employee uses their own compensation, whether it's wages or insurance coverage. Due to the preventative care mandate of Obamacare, all people covered by insurance now have the option of accessing prescription contraception without copay. An employer has no right to dictate how an employee uses their insurance.

Supporting a decision and making options more available is not the same thing as mandating a particular decision. All of these anti-abortion bills give the state the power to make decisions for women.

The state. Making decisions. For women, about what happens inside our bodies. That's the exact opposite of freedom and liberty.

My thinking is this is all a "dog and pony" show. The sponsors and supporters of the bill will be hero's to their extremist backers even if the bill is vetoed or when the courts strike it down. Plus, they have the added advantage of putting the Democrats, especially Beebe, in a tough position as being seen as supporting abortion. "Not good especially for Democratic prospects of winning the Governor's race which has taken a huge blow" "No pun intended."

What will be interesting is seeing who gets the dirty end of the stick. Will Beebe risk ridicule by the right his last term in office and Veto these bills? Or, will he sign the bills into law, "making his reservations known to the public of course", and let McDaniel, "politically dead at this point", get to take on the fun of all the legal challenges?
