Obama to GOP: "I won."
President Obama listened to Republican gripes about his stimulus package during a meeting with congressional leaders Friday morning - but he also left no doubt about who's in charge of these negotiations. "I won," Obama noted matter-of-factly, according to sources familiar with the conversation.

Well I like the Gitmo thing. Other than that:
Skinny, your tax money wasn't just signed over to sponsor and promote abortions in Guatemala.

I should really stop having opinions about things with which I'm never going to be 100% au-fait.

The reversal of Bush' banning of government funding to foreign country funds that provide abortions should be a bipartisan outrage. No wonder he did not provide much publicity for this.
Explain to me why when we are in a financial crisis of our own that the United States should contribute money to funds in other countries that provide abortions to people within their own countries. You support abortion, fine whatever- explain to me why more AMERICAN tax dollars need to leave the country to support another countries abortions.
Great to see my tax dollars at work.

Nobody is "promoting abortions". Nobody is "pro-abortions".
Abortions will happen whether you fund them or not. Regardless of your opinion...
I'd rather see my tax dollars being spent to help women than seeing them going to churches.
I am going to bypass the abortion issue. Regardless of all of the differing opinions, abortion is a controversial issue. If that controversial issue need be addressed that is fine. However there is no need to send tax dollars outside the country for this.
How could money earmarked for this be better spent?
Why not use it to sponsor programs within the United States for women that are in need for support after they have had abortions?
Why not use it to sponsor abortions within the United States?
There is no reason that more tax dollars need to leave the country. There are many funds that on the chopping block that the people of the United States benefit from and depend on. Instead of supporting our infrastructure we are transplanting tax dollars out of the United States to fund the abortions for another country.
You want help for women? Perhaps the women within the United States would like to have their tax dollars help the women within the United States.
