Romney lies so much, I can't even come up with creative titles for posts about it anymore. Also, I hope this is the last political post I make until after the election!

I think people who believe Romney isn't anti-choice are few and far between (or Republican), but a new video of him has gone viral. Once more, Romney's own words are what are coming back to bite him. (Doesn't it say something that what he says when he thinks he's speaking off camera keeps coming back to haunt him? The fact that he's being honest those times and lying when he knows he's on camera? See also: Romney stating outright that he doesn't care about half of Americans. Oh, but he didn't mean that...)

Romney, in his own words, saying he is against abortion, that no woman should be able to have one:

Starts at 3 minutes in. The first 3 minutes are nearly as scary though, as two grown men talk in a matter of fact way about where the second coming of God will take place.

Please, please, please. Think about your vote this coming Tuesday! Women worked long and hard to get the rights we have now. Will we give them up so easily? Do we want to return to having men decide what we can do with our bodies?

The economy will eventually improve, no matter who is in charge. (Then it will likely get worse again, then better, then worse. Happens.) But our rights are a long-term issue! A vote for Romney will hurt women. It will hurt anyone who is not rich. It will hurt any dogs he wants to take on cross-country trips.

Please think, please vote. Hopefully these scary times will end on Tuesday and women won't end up barefoot and pregnant on Wednesday. (I wrote that sentence in an attempt at humor, but there's so very much not funny about this. "I can't imagine" is a term people throw around a lot, but I literally cannot imagine being forced to carry a baby to term if I do not want to. That's not even making women a second-class citizen, that's making a woman into livestock or slaves.)
