    In their rediculous claims of why Planned Parenthood should have their funds cut, the stupid tools at Fox & Friends argued how there is no need to fund Planned Parenthood as you can get your breast exam, a pap smear, and blood pressure checked out at Walgreens....

    http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/381282/april-11-2011/pap-smears-at-walgreens (3:50 but watch all 5:35 its great!)

    I turned that show off years ago, and as slanted as Morning Joe can be, Fox & Friends surely has reached the top of its class in stupidity along with their constant finger pointing fear mongering....

    Well, these guys are intellectuals..That's why they look the way they do. They look a lot like Denny's 2AM tweakers and basement nerds as well.

    Do they KNOW that mammograms involve exposing the breast and anyone standing nearby to radiation?
    [​IMG]

    I would be bloody concerned about over servicing as they would be under pressure to get their money back

    On the other hand they may have in mind a method that does not involve radiation

    Mind you - if was men that needed this I doubt they would be making the same suggestions

    People getting "news" from Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central is amusing...

    That the "news" they get is about what's happening over at FOX is hilarious...and pathetic.

    People say, "I get my news from Jon Stewart". Stewart doesn't give any news...he just bashes (and often rightly so) the 3 cable news networks. Sorry, people...that ain't news. It may be funny, but it ain't news.

    You have the audacity to complain about finger pointing and fear mongering from a MEDIA outlet, yet you are absolutely silent at fear mongering and finger pointing by left-wing politicians. You know, comments like "Repbublicans want to kill women", "Republicans want 6 million senior citizens not to get their meals", "This is the same as bombing innocent civilians" , "Republicans are starting another civil war", "Republicans can go to h***".

    Or how about Democrats being caught hoping for a government shutdown so they can point fingers at Republicans. So, please don't try and fool us with your alligator tears and your supposedly being offended and angered at a MEDIA outlet for doing what you accuse them of, then you turn a blind eye to ELECTED REPRESENTITIVES for doing far worse.

    You know what, while I am at it, how about I give Democrats a few more one liners to fear monger America with:

    "Republicans plan on opening concentration camps and gas chambers to eliminate those with opposing views"

    "Republicans plan on making anyone who disagrees with them to wear stars on their clothes so they can be more easily sent to concentration camps."

    "Every Republican found with a life sized portrait of Hitler in their office"


    Now come on, I am just being a kind and giving person just trying to help the left-wing of America kick up their fear mongering another notch.

    And Obama doesn't want women to get mammograms until they are 50...

    Get Breast Exams at Walgreens!


    Drive-thru? I always wondered what that box was for in the outside lane.

    There are many free clinics that offer breast exams and more...PP does not need to be funded to do it.

    The AMA recommended that as soon as Obamacare was passed...now it will cost insurance companies too much to do all those once all these people get insured...so they upped the age...so more will die because of it.

    The Walgreens in my neighborhood is right next to a Planned Parenthood facility - yes, I'm being serious. Maybe they can coordinate.

    Why should we fund infantacide Murder Inc.

    Only leftists think that they hold the moral high ground by pretending that unborn infants are not life and should be cruely murdered without conscience. Leftists suck.

    >>>One of those tools (and that's really the only way to describe those morons) should have asked Walgreens if that's what they really want to do. My guess is they don't or they'd be doing it already. One false negative and some woman would OWN Walgreens.

    "blame obama"

    "Blame obama"

    "Blame obama"

    This was a recommendation from the AMA because regular mammograms before 50 actually can increase the risk of cancer

    Did those idiots really think they could get away with saying that Walgreens gives pap smears? I mean, come on. And the thing about John Kyl's office saying that the "Abortion accounts for 90% of services Planned Parenthood performs" comment was not intended to be a factual statement is just as asinine.

    And we in Australia have only recommended regular breast screening after 50 for many many years now

    America has been talked into a LOT of unnecessary overservicing

    No. Should I be? If she supports the murder of innocent defenseless life she says nothing worth hearing.

    So you believed that at first it was better to have them done starting at 40 and now that the AMA changed it to 50 you believe that too...and it's just a coincidence that they came out with that right after Obamacare was passed.

    Sheep...go bahhhhh

    What does that have to do with the primary function of planned parenthood is murdering babies? Nothing? Just clarifying.
