Since liberals are "pro choice", what about choices like whether or not to join a labor union?

Or what kind of light bulbs to use, what car to drive, or what kind of shopping bag to use? Are these not also valid choices we should be allowed to make?

How about choices about health care, about how much to spend on health insurance, or even whether we wish to have it?

Or can we only make politically correct choices, approved by the progressive elites?

    Oh, now I LOVE 'Stump the Liberal'.

    1. How about if it's "my body, my choice", they can't tell us how much soda to put in it?

    2. Or, how about Warren Buffet finding all the tax loopholes he can before the tax rate goes up in 2013. He just created a new one yesterday.

    3. You think France has the ideal society, when the French are leaving in droves because of 75% taxes.

    4. Martin Sheen is an actor who is smart enough to engage in political discussion. Ronald Reagan should never have been elected President because he's just an actor, for crying out loud.

    5. The amount of money it will cost each individual citizen to pay for the WAR is important to consider. The amount of money welfare, food stamps, and medicare cost each individual citizen is irrelevant, and selfish to consider.

    6. When people try to discuss the current events with you, your face becomes red, you raise your voice and use the words: "idiot" and "oil" repeatedly.

    7. You think Rachel Maddow is an intelligent, gutsy lady and a dynamite reporter.

    8. You think all war is evil, and Jimmy Carter is a voice a reason.

    9. You're still not clear about what exactly was wrong with Communism.

    10.. Your parents paid for you to go to an expensive private college and five years later you still spend more time protesting than earning a living.

    EDIT: I GOT MORE!!!

    11. You think everyone is a victim.

    12. You project your own racism on people, because you voted for a man based on the color of his skin, and can't imagine that someone didn't vote for him for the same reason.

    13. You call conservatives "racist", and then say that black people aren't smart or capable enough, and that's why they need Affirmative Action.

    14. Having no ability what-so-ever to distinguish between wants and needs.

    15. Abdicating all personal responsibility for the reason stated in number 11.

    Your question is smart to me. The people who say you aren't being forced to become a member of a union are being obtuse. They full well know that if you wish to work for precise organizations or in a precise line of work, You need to become a member of the union. That's called forcing any individual to do anything in opposition to their will. Sure, they can decide upon a different line of labor or look for work elsewhere, but it surely's still discriminatory. Replace "you need to become a member of the union" with "you have got to be white" then we would hear one other story. Each are discriminatory. Some states are passing "correct to work" legal guidelines to shield individuals from having to join a union.

    There are only two choices they support. Whether to have your unborn child executed,or whether to stick your junk in another man's rectum or not

    Other than that,they want your life tightly controlled in every way from birth to death

    Liberals only believe in pro choice when it is something they feel is important and does not make money for them. Unions make money for liberals.

    We also respect your choice to go off and live in anarchy. Then again, I personally love anarchy because it's so interesting. Anyway, I'm sure there's somewhere where you don't have to pay any taxes and can be self-sufficient. In fact, why don't all you conservatives just leave? You all want to be self-sufficient. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
