Margaret Sanger would have loved your take on the "runaway birthrate" and overpopulation of the masses of irresponsible "sport F'ers". Is it any wonder that the 14th Amendment has turned into the "garbage can" of the "social rights party". You can do what you want ,sport.

]]> Comment on The Truth About Republicans Being Offended By USDOJ’s Oversight Of Mississippi Redistricting by Zachary Adams http://mslp.org/blog/republicans-offended-usdoj-redistricting-oversight/#comment-1051 Zachary Adams Fri, 11 Nov 2011 17:23:00 +0000 http://mslp.org/?p=813#comment-1051 Here is a news flash for you! If you think Mississippi's Republicans are "Real", think again. The Democrats were and still are the party of Jim Crow! All legislation re civil rights in the southern states was fought tooth and nail by the Democrats. The "Conscience" of the party, Senator Byrd of West Virginia was a premiere "Fillibusterin' Fool" early on. The "real" Democrats, i.e., "traveled the road to Damascus with Saul and good old LBJ" "used" Republican clout to cement their conversion to the "Party of Civil Rights". Those who had not the stomach for such shenanigans merely "eased" over and took a different route to the land of business as usual, "We are now Republicans". I'm 66 years old and my eyes are still crossed as in "Hey! Wait just a damn minute! I'm a Republican and always have been. How did I all of a sudden become a "racist?" Apparently, the conversion took place while I was away in the service and living in CA. Here is the thought/slogan I would offer all involved in MS politics; "If your chest swells with pride each time you hear someone point out MS being in last place on any list...... Thank a Democrat and a few select "Republicans". Case in point; Lott(R) and Breaux(D) lobby shop........ real bipartisan solutions to the complex problems in DC. Have a nice day!

This is a disgusting violation of civil liberties, and the ultimate invasion of government control over women's lives.  It is possible that rape victims would be forced to carry the "person" to term.  On another point - I get that libertarians don't believe in entitlement programs - lets see the result in this the welfare champion state -decades from now when there is an explosion in children dependent on social services - due to ALL the restrictions from this law. Not only will abortion options be eradicated - but various types of birth control and counseling will be curtailed. Who will this affect? The upper and middle class will continue to seek the solutions to their "pregnancy issues" that their resources have always allowed!  No it will be the lowest classes that will be affected the most from this law. Those least capable of responsibly providing for their young. Those who will need the social services,subsidized housing, food stamps and unemployment support that most libertarians and conservatives loathe!  Reasonable conservatives and libertarians should come out in droves against this initiative. So what do you say? Join us!!!             STOP 26!!!
