Why in the hell would anyone vote for McCain/Palin ?!?!

10 (of the many) reasons why McCain/Palin DOES NOT! have my support ...

REASON 1
John McCain opposes equal pay legislation, saying it wouldn't do "anything to help the rights of women."

REASON 2
John McCain opposes requiring health care plans to cover prescription birth control.

REASON 3
John McCain and Sarah Palin oppose comprehensive, medically accurate sex education.

REASON 4
John McCain opposes commonsense funding to prevent unintended and teen pregnancies.

REASON 5
John McCain and Sarah Palin want to tax health care benefits for the first time since the 1950s.

REASON 6
John McCain opposes restoring family planning services for low-income women.

REASON 7
Sarah Palin opposes abortion even in the case of rape and incest.

REASON 8
John McCain voted against the Violence Against Women Act, which ensures rape survivors are not charged for the emergency exams used to prosecute their attackers. While Sarah Palin was mayor of Wasilla, rape survivors were forced to pay for these exams, which cost up to $1,200.

REASON 9
When asked whether contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV, John McCain said he was "stumped."

REASON 10
In his 25 years in Washington, DC, John McCain hasvoted against women's reproductive rights and privacy 125 times.

I honestly don't know how any woman can even fathom voting for McCain/Palin. Why is anyone willing to let themselves be treated as a second class citizen or have their rights taken away from them.

If McCain/Palin wins, I'm relocating to Canada, Austrailia or the UK. I'm not staying here to have my rights taken away.
