Let's see: Bush, Palin, Bachmann, Cain, Gingrich, Romney, Santorum. Now, the same seems to apply to their cash cows. Way to go, Foster.

Your comment was support for a culture with more self control, self reliance and self respect. I hope you will not be silenced by the liberal media reaction.

]]> Comment on ‘Bishop Obama’ Tells Church What to Believe by Megan http://fosterfriess.com/blog/2012/02/16/bishop-obama-tells-church-what-to-believe/#comment-943 Megan Sat, 18 Feb 2012 05:01:00 +0000 http://fosterfriess.com/?p=5079#comment-943 Health insurers are not being mandated to supply "abortion-inducing" drugs. I assume this is a reference to what is called the morning-after pill, or plan B, and is a perfect example of the scare-tactics and exaggerations used by the far right when it comes to these issues. These pills do not induce abortions or terminate existing abortions in any way, do the research. Also, "It's not like they won't be able to get contraception without this mandate," is a callous, brush-off of the issue. The fact is that contraception is one of THE most expensive and commonly used prescriptions among women. WITH health insurance, how is a $70 per month co-pay not expensive? Without health insurance? Ridiculous. Health insurers are not being mandated to supply “abortion-inducing” drugs.

That joke was a reminder to us in those days to "just say no." When we were young, that was actually an option, and it was an option chosen more often than not. We had the wrath of parents to contend with because our parents were PARENTS. I hope you don't feel bad about the reaction. They were more upset about that than about biden using the f-word on tv. It's always fun to share something with someone from my own generation. I wish you the best - I hear you're quite an amazing person. Maybe more people should listen to you and follow your example. Congratulations on all you've accomplished! Let 'em talk - and phooey on them!

I would never invest any of my money in your company. And yes, Mr Fries, my money. Are you suprised that women have their own money to invest. You need to stay in your backward world where you think women should be seen and not heard. You are just a "yesterdays man" Time has past you by. Maybe you need to retire to some locked unit where you can live in the past all the time. You are just a fool. I would never invest any of my money in your company. And yes, Mr Fries, my money.

Now you have apologized??? Sorry, but I find all the Republican "stuff" more entertaining than anything on television or in the newspaper. You have taken that entertainment to another level with your "joke." Keep up the good work! We all know Santorum has NO chance against Obama. None. Rick Santorum says it was all the media’s fault.
