Should politicians impose their religious views on the nation?
In last night Vice Presidential debate Paul Ryan made it clear that he and Romney want to make their personal views on women's right to choose what they do with their bodies the laws of the land. What do you think?
NO no no.... that is like telling some one what clothes to wear, how they should think and what to eat!
Are they kidding with that!!!!!!!!!!!!
Faith vs. extremism - Biden: "But I refuse to impose it on equally devout Christians and Muslims and Jews, and I just refuse to impose that on others, unlike my friend here, the—the congressman. I—I do not believe that we have a right to tell other people that—women they can’t control their body. It’s a decision between them and their doctor. In my view and the Supreme Court, I’m not going to interfere with that."
Ryan: "We don’t think that unelected judges should make this decision; that people through their elected representatives in reaching a consensus in society through the democratic process should make this determination."
People who support the right to choose should worry about Romney/Ryan's extreme views.

The United States was founded upon many basic principles, one of which was religious freedom. Doesn't this mean that even those who don't believe in anything have the right to do so? Of course it does. Well then why does our government involve god in every official political speech. Even when you...
