I Really Get Sick of Stupid Politicians
I really get sick of stupid politicians.
Texas Representative, Warren Chisum, wants to make it harder to get a divorce. You can read the proposed bill at http://www.legis.state.tx.us/tlodocs/80R/billtext/pdf/HB02684I.pdf
I feel that this would just make the desperate more desperate; there would be more murders, abuse, and missing people. If I was with someone I couldn’t live with, and there was no way out, I am afraid I would have to take desperate measures.
I think it all comes down to the “Right Wing” Republicans platform of “Family Values”. Talk about hiding behind something, “Family Values?” How many of these politicians have affairs, sexually abuse the young pages, are actually gay, yet don’t stand up for gay rights.
President Bush vetoed stem cell research, saying “I don’t believe in sacrificing a life, to save a life”. What about this Iraq war?
The current administration cut funding to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood provides so much good info, STD testing, and birth control to the people who can’t afford these services otherwise. They also provide these services to young kids, who probably are afraid to talk to their parents about these subjects.
Ignoring these things won’t make them go away. We will just have more uneducated people, with more kids, who more than likely will follow in their parents footsteps and we will have more poverty, welfare, and domestic violence.
When the desperate get more desperate they take desperate measures. I can’t imagine a young girl thinking she might be pregnant; probably being scared to tell a parent, not having a place to go that could help her in confidence.
What about the churches; that protest in front of these clinics; which make threats; and actual bomb these places. I thought religion was supposed to teach love, forgiveness, understanding, etc., not violence.
