Men Should Go Through What Women Do


Fundamentalist elements in our society are trying to force females to undergo tests and procedures because the females are exercising their rights involving their reproductive systems.
It is only right that the equivalent procedures and processes be visited upon those who are causing these reproductive issues.
Every father and father-to-be should undergo probes, tests, and special diets for nine months.
They should also experience (induced) morning sickness and bloating, badly fitting clothes, inane comments from people they don’t know, and disruption of their lives.  At the same time, they would have to try to continue their normal routine, including work, for eight or nine months.
This will lead to a greater appreciation of what women go through.

Who is the Constitutional Hero?

Edward Snowden has revealed that the U.S. government, through the NSA, has been spying on us and violating our rights, particularly those found in the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution. For his actions, Snowden has been vilified and threatened, and may be prosecuted. Richard Cheney, Karl Rove, and I. Lewis Libby ‘outed’ a CIA operative and thus harmed our national security. They were not prosecuted for this because they were in politics. Snowden took his actions because he believed that he must protect our constitutional freedoms. Cheney, Rove and Libby took their actions for the basest of political motives. Who should be prosecuted? Who should be hailed as a hero?
