Letter: GOP makes women second-class citizens

we assert the sanctity of human life and affirm that the unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed. We support a human life amendment to the Constitution and endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children Lets hope none of you have a female relative or friend be raped or molested and get pregnant. Then they're sol. And if they die due to complications who cares?

Alright Kelly Ayotte, there are going to be left wingers who say that all Republicans want to control people's reproductive rights or that Republicans want to be in the OBGYN's Office all of this is far from the truth but it is a sledge hammer reflex by the left. Yes there are some that think that everything that happens is God's will I do not begrudge these religious people of that thought. I believe God gave mankind free will and that mankind has to be accountable for that free will.

Good letter David. We should be moving forward not backward.

The manufactured War On Women. The Left will try and push the fantasy that because a religious entity refuses to pay for BC that women have no other choices of where to get it. First of all, you always have the choice to look for employment elsewhere. And you can get BC pretty cheap at Walmart. Nobody wants BC or abortion outlawed, Dem or Rep, except for extremists. Many Pols are extreme on the right and the left. To hold either of those parties accountable for what any extremist says is. wrong. Last time I checked, PP makes quite a profit. My guess is that PP will do just fine without tax payer money. And I assume the ACA covers this also.

I belong to the Republican party and the allegation that we stand in the way of women's reproductive rights or a woman's ability to control her own healthcare. I also would state that it is NOT a right for a woman to have her reproductive health care paid for by her neighbor nor is it a "right" to get free contraception paid for by your neighbor. Birth control pill cost $9.00 per month, a condom costs about 50 cents. It is affordable but before the choice to have an abortion comes the choice to protect yourself, abstain from the act of intercourse and a host of other common sense and what should be natural choices. I am pro-choice BUT that does not mean that I am interested in paying for a woman's abortion as I find that morally repugnant. Period. If you decide to engage in any activity which will put you in a tough circumstance then you should think before acting in a moment of passion. If you want that abortion, that is your "choice", no one should have to "chip in" to help you pay for it or pay for necessary counseling which may be necessary due to that "choice" If you are responsible enough to "choose" and you want that right then you should be responsible enough to pony up the necessary funding for your "choice".
