Anyone else hit the early voting already?

Shut up stupid.

If she's raped then no she shouldn't be unless she chooses to be. Do you really believe every abortion is a partial birth abortion? If so you need to take another happy pill. I'm against those also. BUT when a woman is raped she should have the opportunity to have an abortion at the earliest opportunity. As in 2-3 weeks in.

Not at all, but I believe every abortion is killing a life. Science is pretty much on my side with that as well. I'm also pointing out Obama's view on abortion that even if a baby survives an attempted abortion and is born, it can still be killed and it's fine. Would you like the vote itself or ... I have a wealth of knowledge at my fingertips and I'm quite good at this.

When a woman is raped, she can go get a pill that will prevent pregnancy in the first place and within the first couple of weeks you're still in the clear. IF there is a police report, by all means, get to it. If you had to hemhaw until the child is viable, suck it up princess. Give it to someone and make them happy, you should have acted sooner.

IF we are not willing to protect the most innocent and weakest of us, then as a Republic we are already gone. I do find it very interesting however, that liberals view the death penalty as barbaric but inserting a power drill into a child's head and then using a shop vac to suck everything out isn't.

Actually I just showed the purpose it provides. The Founders knew that not everyone is going to pay attention to a politician and will just vote on what they heard from someone else or the likeability of someone. The Founders knew you couldn't have idiots voting the largess of someone else because that buffer is what keeps this a Republic. Democracy never lasts long. You want to see what happens when you remove that buffer? Take a look at how bad things have gotten since states stopped having the ability to recall their Senators or the ability to vote their senators in.

And I can give you a video of a president who says his daughters shouldnt' be 'punished' with a child. And votes of his for partial birth abortion as well as a very nice video showing EXACTLY what that entails.

Good, we presume you won't be bothering to vote then. That means my vote can negate some other liberal voter's efforts who does bother to vote.

Shut up stupid.

True to a point. It does work but IMO it is an antiquated system that serves no real purpose. And it disenfranchises a large group of people with the winner takes all approach. IF the votes were split percentage wise it would be fine. Just because I live in a state that has a slight majority of repub voters should not mean my vote doesn't count or a repub in California's doesn't count.
And I can give you video of a senator who thinks a woman can't get pregnat after being raped. And many that think a woman should be forced to carry that pregnancy to term, no matter what it does to her mental health or her age. There are idiots on all sides of the isle. I'm sure the electoral college has it's share.

Like your votes matter here in Texas. Your vote here matters more in Nebraska.
It's messed up that the whole United States of America is at the mercy of a few states.
Courtesy of an outdated electoral system.

Spoken like a true democrat!

You still have people who have no idea about any politician or who is running. It still works brilliantly. Hell, I can give you videos of idiots at Obama rallies not knowing anything about Libya. Most people don't know about electoral colleges or that their votes dont' actually count towards presidential elections. The Founders could see FAR down that road

The electoral college was the best solution for the time. Without a efficient means for everyone to communicate there had to be a way for their votes to be counted. So everyone from each area got together and voted then they sent a representative to Washington and those people voted as the representative for those people. With modern technology there is no reason that each vote can't be counted and the total dictate the winner. That would be a more accurate winner. If people knew that their vote actually counted there would probably be a higher percentage of voters. With the current system it's too easy for someone to think their vote doesn't matter and not vote.

Im working in South Texas and registered in Wichita county back home where all my mail goes. Can I vote in South Texas?

Find your local Obama campaign office and they'll find a way for you to be able to vote in both places!

So, what exactly is your qualifications since you know better than the people who actually founded the country?

Place a crown on Obama's head and call it a day.
