Up.
You know.
Brad's Gramma and I banter with each other. In this case she stated that indeed, SHE, is the Queen rather than me. And she has roots to prove it. I think she's in denial as to what kind of roots. Are we speaking geneological here? Or....more of the folical type? Hmmmm...
That is what was meant by 'root'. :o)
Now...more serious things: Life DOES begin at conception and I'm not kidding about that!
Funny you want to paint me as as pro-choice when I made no vote on the subject....LOL
Ah-hah. But next you'll be contending that Pamela Anderson wasn't born looking like she does now.
YES! Scary, huh?
As in...has she always been, shall we say, *perky*? Uh uh. Nope. Sorry. Doesn't wash. Bzzzzzzzzzzzt.
I'll add to that bump with a ping for MY real man!
I am sorry, but if a woman is of sound mind and body, and over 21, there is no reason she cannot work for her health insurance coverage. If she is studying ANYTHING she is eligible for student coverage at a reduced rate. If she joins in matrimony she is eligible under her husband's policy.
An unborn child of a poor mother is completely innocent and has no recourse, cannot go get a job and be covered. I thought the feminists and communists were so concerned about the children.
