    You need to get your facts straight. Ft Bend County is almost 60% white. Biden kicked the **** out Trump. Take the 4 counties in DFW. Outside of Dallas County, where Biden again kicked the **** out of Trump, the other 3 which are primarily white, Biden lost by a cumulative less than 2%. So the white suburban counties are voting blue for the most part. I mean you can include Montomery County as a white suburb of Houston, but north of the Woodlands is basically rednecks and cousin ****ers. Trump's people.

    Much more of Biden’s support came from suburban voters than urban.
    https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/06/30/behind-bidens-2020-victory/
    “In 2020, suburban voters made up a majority of Biden’s coalition (55%); 28% of his voters said they lived in urban areas and 17% were from rural areas.”

    I can't beleive I credited you as the most rational poster and then you post this braindead crap. Are there any serious right leaning posters here ?

    You're comparing a pregnant women needing to travel to a male ? Are you seriously this dumb suddenly? How in the world is fair to a women in Alabama compared to a women stationed in virgina who is at no fault of their own?

    In the same way as republican senator tuberville has blocked military promotions, senator paul is blocking diplomatic positions...

    So you also want extra time off and extra pay for some soldiers in comparison to other soldiers, and this is in your view equal treatment? I don't think you people understand what the word equal means. Equal means treating everyone the same. You are talking about giving some people special accommodations that other people don't get. You are free to support that of course, but it isn't equality.

    That just tells me there are more suburbanites than urbanites.

    So if we, say, remove an infected gall bladder from one soldier, we have to remove everyone's gall bladders to be equal? Equal here means their medical needs are provided for, whatever the particulars are. Only pregnant women might need the abortion services and only people with infected gall bladders will need the bladder removal surgery. And if removing an infected gall bladder was for some reason illegal in Texas, I should hope the military would make sure that soldier could get to a place where the surgery was performed.

    Every morning I get to log on and see Stupid's arguments get totally destroyed by basic logic and common sense. It's the only reason he isn't on my ignore list. He's either the worlds best troll or the worlds worse depending on your perspective.

    ...women are part of the problem.

    Women didn't used to have all these stupid rights. When they stayed where they were supposed to stay like God intended (out of the military, for example), none of this would have happened...;)

    No one is denying them medical care. They can travel on their own dime on their regularly scheduled leave to get an abortion if they want to. Just like any other elective procedure. This is a specific ADDITIONAL benefit to get one particular elective procedure. If a soldier wanted to get a vasectomy, do they get extra leave and travel expenses? What about breast implants? Liposuction? Hair transplants? A face lift? There is a reason this one particular procedure gets special treatment, and it isn't military readiness, it is that the Democrats are the abortion party and they control the government right now.
