There is no war on women. It is this year's talking point, because the democrat party has absolutely nothing to run on after 3 yrs of a horrible president, even while controlling the house and senate for 2 of those years.

Nothing more than a diversion to avoid talking about what really matters.

Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

You may not see a Republican "War on Women", but a lot of women do......and a lot of men too. Your saying that there is no concerted effort of the Republicans to control women's health doesn't make it so.

Should the Republicans call it the Dem's war on unborn innocents? Who killed more people this year, the Taliban? Or Roe V. Wade?

There is a small contingent of people who claim to be republican that want to ban all forms of abortion. There is a small contingent of people who claim to be democrats who would like abortion to be available on demand at any stage of pregnancy, paid for by taxpayers, up to the time of birth. Neither are the bulk of Americans. Most Americans would like abortion to be legal, but rare.

What else about women's health are reps against...other than making someone else pay for your health, which is not a man/woman thing. Conservatives believe the taxpayer shouldn't be paying for anyone's healthcare.

I admit, the democrats do a great job of using the media to focus on these talking points. They are a great diversion from the talking points we need to talk about...things like
-utter failure of our public education system
-Massive debt we are leaving to the next generation
-Corrupt politicians

Nah, lets just talk about abortion...which will never change. It will always be legal, and imho, hopefully happen less often.

Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

Uh, war on women? Two people are involved in being pregnant. In many cases, what the man wants in this situation is not even considered.

what exactly was your point? That a man should be able to tell a woman that she has to carry his child even if she doesn't want to? What if it endangers her health? What if he raped her? Who gets to choose?......It's a woman's right to choose at issue here....not a man's, not the government's, not her parents, not the Republicans, not the court of public opinion.....a WOMAN'S right to choose.
