Hey, Jan Schakowsky: Stop scaring people

Yesterday, President Obama lectured the GOP to “stop trying to frighten the American people.”
Tell it to Democrat Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who’s invoking “back alleys and hangers” in her attacks on moderate, pro-life Democrats and Republicans who oppose Demcare government subsidies for abortion (h/t Newsalert).

Can’t we just beat her with the coat hanger instead, ala mommy dearest?
I gots scared just looking at the pic nevermind watching the video!
Right, Rogue. Last time i saw a mouth like that, it had a hook in it!
Abortion is the Democratic holy grail, a basic requirement for communion. Murderers.
More wisdom from the great state of Illinois.
She need not worry about getting preggers. Her appearance causes a major case of flurge…pre-emptive abortion.
And the fact that, pre-Roe, 90% of abortions were performed by doctors and 5% by trained non-physicians or lay people impacts this alarmism how?
Legalizing abortion did not make it any safer.
Abortion is the new entitlement.
Ha! Was it spinner-bait or a Rapala that crossed them eyes on a 12lb. hawg?!
Liberals are in a panic. I’m lovin’ it.
“We have the vote.”So do we.They don’t care how many seats they lose.The health bill is coming and everyone including them knows it will be a train wreck.Instead of worrying about a couple of flaky Senators we need to be looking for new blood that will be prepared to introduce bills to undo some of this disaster.The GOP needs to get behind that.
As usual Democrats can’t logic their way through the most of simple issues. Even if abortion were a right, how does that mean other people should pay for it? Having a right to do something does not mean others must pay for you to exercise that right. By this logic the right to bear arms means the govt. should send a check to the buyer of a gun to guarantee “access” to guns for the poor. I’d like to see the Republicans propose that in congress just to see liberal heads exploding.
If a person aborts a baby, that’s okay, because the baby has no rights. Yet, if someone shoots the baby in the womb, all of a sudden, the baby has rights. Go figure.
Democrats scare me more: especially photos of Botoxed Pelosi in the wind tunnel of hope-n-change. Top that with Obama’s administration of socialists, czars, czarinas,and associates. Stir in wimpy Congress and bake for four years. A recipe in disaster for “racist” conservatives.
In 2001 I feared radical Islamic terrorists and rogue nations attacking our nation, but knew our President and military would protect us.
In 2009 I fear our rogue Congress and wimpy leaders whose diplomacy will embolden the “man-made-disasters-in-waiting” (aka “terrorists” to former administrations with spines) and frustrate our military who want to protect us. Otherwise, life is a mantra of peace and tranquility.
I laughed out loud when I heard senators say the healthcare bill would be dead in the senate…right…it will pass and you and I will be made to pay for it. Period!
Fitting term. Right along with another 40 million American babies.
Grandparents, people with pre-existing conditions, those unable to get to the gubmint clinic, doctor depleted communities, small business owners, Canadians…
Yea, I can see it now…Planned Parenthood getting the contract as the Federal Birthing Center.
Yeah, remember Scott Peterson? He was convicted of murdering not only his wife, but his unborn child. So apparently, it is sometimes murder and sometime a “right”. Another example of the confusion of the left. They don’t have a clue where they stand on anything. It depends on which way the wind is blowing on any particular day. But whatever, just fund their programs and issues and shut up.
Yeah, that photo scared the heck out of me!
You do mean libtards, right?
But, if, God Forbid, this socialized medicine bill passes, we’ll have back-alley, coat-hanger open heart surgery!
This sewage has been poisoning the water for 3 years now. Come Nov 2010 we can start the flushing process an clean the country. The one good thing to come of this is that we have all seen that the early predictions of disaster and evil under “Neo-Democrat” political domination have been proven true. The American people will obliterate this euro cancer in due time – and relegate it back to the 19th century marxist rathole from whence it came.
Only in a back alley or on the House Floor.
Just WHAT is it with Illinois? Perhaps they are trying to make Massachusetts look moderate? Is Republican Dennis Hastert the only exception?
Stop scaring people? If the left didn’t have fear for a club, they’d never get any of their agenda passed. They’re going to do something about abortion, though. They’re going to balance it out by killing off 50 million elderly through denial of medical care, just to make things fair.
Abort the bill, not unborn children.
More damnable lies from the left, just like the lie that tens of thousands of women died each year from back alley abortions before RvW.
Have you been watching Glenn Beck? This broads husband is an ex-con/felon, who wrote the manifesto on the healthcare debacle..

Yeah, these people are hard-core Marxists. Don’t let the lipstick and the Doris Day hairdoo fool you.

HI LINDSAY–9:59 AM. When I was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1964 I took the oath to DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION AND COUNTRY AGAINST ALL ENEMIES–BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.
***
At the time I saw the Russians, Cubans, Chinese, North Vietnamese, etc. as possible foreign enemies and feared that I might have to fight them. I did not see any domestic enemies on the horizon then.
***
Like you–I see the DOMESTIC ENEMIES now–Comrade Obama (PBUH), his “democratic” / liberal / socialist / statist / marxist / communist buddies in our congress and government. And the Islamic Fifth Column forming up in our country.
***
And as a Christian I fear that God will finally lose all patience with our country due to the 40 million plus ABORTIONS (not “choices”–aka murders) of babies (not “fetuses”) that these evil clowns have forced on our country. Hope and Change my A**!
***
God does not have infinite patience–re-read the Biblical Sodom and Gomorrah story. Or what happened to Israel when they embraced evil and turned away from Him. Like Comrade Obama’s (PBUH) pastor said, “The chickens are coming home to roost!”.

Don’t hold him us as any kind of example. He was a crook. Jack Ryan may be an exception, but even he had his…peccadillos.
Actually, there are a significant number of pro-abortion persons and groups that oppose fetal homicide laws because it threatens abortion.
From Stateline.org, a 2006 article highlighting the issue:
The Goldschein quoted is Sondra Goldschein, state strategies director for the American Civil Liberties Union’s Reproductive Freedom Project.
Because, see, abortion is all about a woman’s choice until a woman chooses to have a child and someone kills that baby. Then we can’t respect the mother’s choice because it could get in the way of killing thousands of other babies.
Given that homicide is the #1 cause of death for pregnant women, don’t you think the people who claim women’s issues are a priority would try to figure out why?
Could it be because they’ve encouraged women to shack up with losers and abusers who then get jittery at the prospect of having to care for a baby, and either force the woman to abort or beat her (and/or her unborn child) to death if she won’t abort?

More detail on Creamer at http://www.biggovernment.com
Yep, he’s qualified, bonified, etc.
After what Glen Beck has revealed to the nation about her husband Robert Creamer’s disturbing book “Listen to Your Mother: Stand up Straight,” one would think that Rep. Shakowsky would prefer to keep a very low profile -
Greece, an EU member, is on the brink of default.
The Governor of New York is ranting about how the state will NOT run out of money “on his watch,” since running out of money is a VERY real possibility.
California is facing a deficit of between $20B and $25B, and will almost certainly be writing “IOU’s” a lot sooner than it did last year – if anyone accepts them this time around.
And Obama is telling the GOP not to scare people?
I wonder, was there a drug screen done before he took the oath of office? Because this guy is talking some seriously crazy stuff…
If her ex-con hubby and she got their way, we’d all be having back alley operations :/.
Isn’t she married to a Convicted Felon advising the Empty Suit?
The argument that, if there is no “safe, legal” way to get an abortion, women will resort to going to people who are not doctors or even trying to abort their own babies is not new. What’s interesting is that this isn’t about the legality of abortion or Roe V Wade; it’s about Federal funding.
Are there no rich far-leftists who would take it upon themselves to fund abortions clinics if they got nuthin’ from the gubmint? I doubt it.
There are no rich far leftists who would fund anything on God’s green earth. It matters not how rich they are.
That’s what they want us to do.
Apparently not with this administration. The unborn victim at Ft. Hood has no one at Justice representing them. The Muslim terrorist is facing 13 counts of murder, not 14. This is not an oversight – it is the policy of one who didn’t see a problem with throwing an aborted yet living child into a closet to die.

—————————————
Point taken: Hence the scare tactics (references to back-alley abortions) when gvt funding for abortion in a bill that hasn’t been finalized and passed yet is threatened.
What all the liberal fear-mongering about abortion is about is a simple concept: convenience.
One of the tell-tale signs of adulthood is the acceptance that sometimes you have to give up your own comfort, convenience, pleasure and even safety for the sake of others — most importantly, your family.
An arrested adolescent — a liberal, in other words — is more concerned with being able to avoid having to grow up than with learning how to deal with adult cares and concerns.
And what greater life-altering adult concern is there than realizing that there’s a baby on the way?
Consider the Caylee Anthony homicide investigation from a few months ago: after watching Greta Van Susteren beat that case into the ground over weeks and months, the upshot seemed to be, “Mom still wanted to party-hearty, and the kid got in the way.”
My moonbat sister of the 2 abortions was exactly the same way: when confronted with the prospect of having to give up the bars and the nightlife, she didn’t hesitate to exercise her “right to choose.”
Or as Hope-a-Dope so memorably put it, why should she have been “Punished with a baby?”(TM)
The only difference between Caylee Anthony’s mom and a liberal woman having an abortion of convenience is that the former offed her kid post-partum.
But remember, folks, this is a good thing. Check of proof: Just work your way through the equation –
1. Adult conservative women tending to accept the adult consequences of pregnancy, +
2. Arrested adolescent liberal women killing off their own young to avoid adulthood, =
3. Fewer future liberals, and more future conservatives. How is that not a good thing?
I say we should let the libs have their precious abortions – their own voluntary form of population control is preferable to having more of them around. Or as the saying goes, “Never interfere with the enemy when he’s in the process of destroying himself.”
Regulus:
There was also Susan Smith, who, as far as we can tell, wanted to be rid of her children because they were an obstacle to her relationship with her new boyfriend (he was hesitant to marry someone who already had children).
As far as your argument that abortion is good as long as the only women aborting their babies are liberals while conservatives are willing to accept the responsibility, I’m afraid I can’t quite go there. A liberal having a baby does not necessarily guarantee a future liberal; look at David Horowitz.
Anyone who would dedicate their life to killing unborn children is f’d up in the head.
To expect other people to pay for it is beyond the pale.
These people are really, really, really f’d up in the head. Really.
Errah call me a dinosaur here but you’d think with their top tier Congressional medical insurance plans, these broads would get better face lifts and botox injections. That’s the type of women’s healthcare choices they should be concerned with. Making choices on which abortionist they need to see and whether I have to foot the bill is probably pretty far down on their “need to do” lists. BTW Where’s my Skotch?
I am tired of listening to these communists.
Oh yes, there are multiple examples of that – I don’t remember her name now, but there was some gal here in Oregon years ago who shot her kids and killed all but one of them for much the same reason.
And while I like David Horowitz, pointing out the exception to the rule (there are always exceptions) doesn’t invalidate the rule.
Let rats exterminate themselves. Saves us the hassle, and avoids a lot of trouble in the long term.
It looks like someone beat Schakowsky about the head and face with a wire hanger. Repeatedly. Dang rat faced demon that she is.
