“The city of Mesa built brick enclosures around the down town dumpsters. Now the homeless and drug addicts have more privacy when they decide to make them a home. How dangerous is this, not to mention a complete waste of money!”
“I looked up the definition of ‘intolerance’ in my dictionary today. It said ‘right-wing Republican’.”
“If women are to be denied contraceptives because they are against the employer’s religion, then single men should be denied erectile dysfunction remedies from their insurance provider, too. Surely those who rail against birth control would be against premarital sex. Also, all male employees should be questioned about their use of condoms if women have to divulge their use of the pill.”
“I am one of those Democratic female venters, who also agree that the Republicans are worse than the Taliban. How dare you Republicans pass laws restricting women from contraceptives? Are you prepared to raise children that some women cannot afford? We see and hear of those women constantly. I think you need to see the Wizard of Oz, for counseling.”
“Seeing the photo of Joe Arpaio and Russell Pearce in the paper yesterday made me think of why these types are called fat cats. Let’s not allow Pearce to get any fatter. Anyone who accepts gifts like he did is no good!”
“After finding out that every drop of oil the Keystone Pipeline carries could go to China I have decided to drop out of the Republican party. I am tired of that warm feeling down my back while they comfort me with it’s raining rhetoric.”
“Retail sales are jumping because prices are skyrocketing. I am seeing spot prices in the grocery store, at restaurants and at the pump up anywhere from 5 to 25 percentv in the last three months. Do the math folks, on the stuff I am actually buying (meaning the number is not diluted but commodities I do not buy) annual inflation is hitting 20 percent. Thank you Democrats and Obama.”
“President Obama should let the Bush tax cuts expire on job creators then these job creators that base their hiring practices on taxes instead of supply and demand would receive a voucher endorsed by Congressman Paul Ryan. If a voucher system is good enough for medicare recipiants it should be good enough for job creators.”
“West Phoenix Hispanic high school students march to protest Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s illegal alien sweeps. These ‘sweeps’ just opened up 31 jobs in Tempe for legal US citizens that illegal aliens had stolen from them for years and years. I just looked at the average yearly progress results of the 15 Phoenix Union High School District (schools). Eleven out of 15 of these Phoenix high schools which have (a high) Hispanic student enrollment have ‘failed’ to make any progress on improving their AIMS scores. These students should be spending their time studying to improve their AIMS scores and graduating high school instead of taking to the streets like ‘Occupy Wall Street’ anarchists.”

Vent #1: Mesa gets what Mesa deserves.
Vent #2: You must have been looking in your liberal/progressive/socialist dictionary.
Vent #3 #4: Women are not being denied anything. The religious freedoms of the employer are be protected. The women can buy all the contraceptives she wants. The insurer and employer will pay for the contraceptives for medical reasons.
Vent #5: Then no more gifts for you at Christmas.... LOL
Vent #6: So your dropping the republican party. What party are you going to? The liberal/progressive/socialist democrats or the sway in the breeze independent party. Sorry you don't like the republican party of Lincoln. The party of fiscal responsibility, limited government and free market enterprise.
Vent #7: When the value of the dollars drops the prices go up. Just wait a few more years, Obama and the democrats will drive inflation out of sight. Then only gold will be worth anything.
Vent #8: I say let the Bush tax expire for everyone. Then everyone can support this country's out of control entitlement and welfare programs.
Vent #9: I kinda feel sorry for the students brought here illegally as small children. They must suffer the sins of their fathers and mothers.

Venter # 3: The employers are forcing employees to live according to the employers religious beliefs.
Employer doesn't believe in contraception?
Fine no one is telling the employer they have to use it.
The insurance company is the one paying for it.
Why should an employer be able to tell a third party company not to provide the contraception == after all some one the money for the insurance company premium comes out of the employees pay so the employee is also paying for the insurance not just the employer.
Under this philosophy if an employer doesn't believe in doctors -- only prayer -- they could tell the insurance company not to pay for any doctor or hospital or medicine at all --- that would keep his premiums nice and low.
Suddenly all employers would claim to be Jehovas Witnesses etc. etc. and claim they only believed in the power of prayer that interferring with God's will is a sin in their religion and they therefore don't have to pay for anything in the medical area.

George W. Bush has done more to destroy the American people than any other President in history. Those who doubt this claim look up Presidents briefing August 6, 2001 or CIA Presidents briefing August 6, 2001. His failures have cost this Country dearly.
Accuracy you could not be more wrong, women don't want free contraceptives, they don't want to be denied free contraceptives because of someones RELIGIOUS beliefs other than their own.IT'S CALLED FREEDOM FROM RELIGION [beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam][beam]

Nah, Accuracy, don't need those.
But young people do.
And the employees pay part of the cost of their insurance so why should the employer be able to tell them they can't have contraceptives? They pay too.
He is just trying to enforce his morality of his employees.
Next you will have to come to work Monday mornng with a token proving you have been to church Sunday and it better be the right religion too.

Not a bad crop of Venters! Keep it up!
#6, Did you know that the Houston Refinernies being built to refine that goo coming south from Canada are half owned by some Saudi princes? All I can say to those Key Stone cops who critisized Obama's Nix to the XL is "I told ya so!" For now, we have the crude oil we need. What we don't need is a war in Iran that will close off Hormuz and all of those crude oil futures market speculators. And the Tea Party wants less government regulations! We need to regulate who can participate in the crude oil futures market!
