Answer 2

McCain has voted consistently against women's health, and he supports overturning the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling, Roe v. Wade. Following is a summary of his positions on women's issues.

McCain Opposed Equal Pay Bill for Women, Said They ‘Need Education and Training’ Instead. McCain skipped a vote on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act that would ensure women have the opportunity to recover back pay for discrimination once they discover it. If he had been there to vote, he said he would have voted against it and that women “need education and training” rather than an equal pay bill. The bill addressed a recent Supreme Court decision that said Steelworker Lilly Ledbetter could not recover back pay for 19 years of discrimination at Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. because she had not discovered the unequal pay until she retired. The bill would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to allow employees to file charges of pay discrimination within 180 days of the last received paycheck affected by the discrimination.

McCain Voted to Gut the Family and Medical Leave Act. In 1993, before finally voting for the Family and Medical Leave Act, McCain voted to jeopardize leave for millions of workers by gutting the bill. He voted to suspend the Family and Medical Leave Act unless the federal government certified that compliance would not increase business expenses or provide financial assistance to businesses to cover any related costs.

McCain opposed spending $100 million to prevent unintended and teen pregnancies. In 2005, McCain voted NO to allocate $100 million to expand access to preventive health care services that reduce the numbers of unintended and teen pregnancies and reduce the number of abortions.

McCain opposed legislation requiring that abstinence-only programs be medically accurate and scientifically based.

McCain voted NO on legislation that would help reduce the number of teen pregnancies by providing funding for programs to teach comprehensive, medically accurate sexuality education and other programs to prevent unintended teen pregnancies.

McCain opposed Title X, the nation's family planning program.

In 1990, McCain voted NO on legislation to extend the Title X federal family planning program, which provides low-income and uninsured women and families with health care services ranging from breast and cervical cancer screening to birth control.

McCain opposed requiring insurance coverage of prescription birth control.

In 2003, McCain voted NO on legislation to improve the availability of contraceptives for women and to require insurance coverage of prescription birth control.

McCain opposes comprehensive s*x education.

In an interview aboard the "Straight Talk Express," McCain struggled to answer questions about comprehensive s*x education and HIV prevention. He also stated that he supported "the president's policy" on s*x education.

McCain supports overturning Roe v. Wade.

In February 2007, the AP quoted McCain stating, "I do not support Roe v. Wade. It should be overturned." In May 2007, he reiterated his desire to overturn Roe v. Wade during an appearance on Meet the Press stating, "My position has been consistently in my voting record, pro-life, and I continue to maintain that position and voting record."

McCain is a sexist:

John McCain (1986 Senate run):

    ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚€ÂœHave you heard the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die?… When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, ‘Where is that marvelous ape?’ “

He told this joke at an appearance before the National League of Cities and Towns in Washington D.C. Yes, there were women present.

John McCain (1998 Senate Republican Fundraiser):

    ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚€ÂœWhy is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?… Because her father is Janet Reno.”

Chelsea was 18 at the time. And yes, there were women present. If someone told a joke like that about my daughter, I would have decked him.

Earlier this year, McCain responded to a question with the line:

    ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚€ÂœAnd I stopped beating my wife just a couple of weeks ago.”

This was his “humor

Answer 3

Awe you must not get enough love at home and you have to come to YA to get attention.

The truth is you love Obama, or you wouldn't keep posting BS about him.  Let it out, you love him and are jealous of him, and wish that you could receive the love and attention that he does.

You can't hide it anymore-LOL

Answer 4

I disagree with Obama and how the Democrat Party is now saying women should stay home and can't do what men can.  Women are equal and the Republican Party will continue to be the Party that ends racism and predjudice even though they have to fight against the Democrat Party to do this.  Republican Party ended slavery, Democrat Party fought to keep slavery legal.  Republican Party passed civil rights legislation, Democrat Party including Al Gore Sr. fillibustered to deny civil rights to blacks.  Republican Party has put a women in the VP nominee position, Democrat Party is attacking her based on her being a women and attacking her children.  This is wrong and it's time the Democrat Party starts supporting equal rights for all.

Answer 5

Obama never said such a thing.

Go back to your trailer park.  

Answer 6

Stop with your lies.

Answer 7

Great use of source quotation.

Did you get that from Rush?
