    How will removing the 8th change what happened to Theresa Lowe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,068 ✭✭✭Specialun


    The No side have zero foundation or solutions. I think it's game over.

    The look of disgust on Mary Lou's face when Declan was given a personal heart felt plea.

    Disgust?. She always looks like that. That permanent scowl ages her alot. Face like a smacked arse.

    That attitude says more about you than it does about these alleged ‘feminists’ and ‘soyboys’.

    I’m a man, I’m Catholic, I’m Conservative, I’m Rightwing, I’m politically incorrect, I really don’t give a damn what you think because I’m right and your wrong and nothing will change that.
    I know many men of different ages and at times could be politically incorrect and they aren't arrogant enough to say I'm right and someone is wrong in that manner.

    The laughable bit when they try to wheel out examples of who support No to try and make muck stick to the whole side... meanwhile they're cuddling up to Sinn Fein!

    I agree
    But it's all about the VOTING
    You can be damn sure the hardcore no vote will be our in their droves.

    Well done on an utter failure to address the actual point.
    Why should anybody vote to permit people the choice to do something they think is wrong? If you just don't want to answer that's fine, we'll know the score.

    Who is stopping you voting?

    Theresa Lowe is shockingly poor. Back to questioning mental health. Also telling totally irrevelant stories.

    Oh dear. Similar has been said a million times throughout this thread. Oh but they were on your side so I guess you didn't get all indignant about it for some reason...

    Once again, we are voting to remove the 8th amendment. We will not get a vote on abortion. It is likely abortion will be brought in based on the proposed legislation, however neither a No vote, nor any other vote will give you a choice on this. Lobbying is what will change the legislation.

    Yet again the No side cite the POLDPA act which they opposed... hypocrisy thy name is No

    Lowe - "Why don't we look at the reasons that a woman is in crisis"
    They don't care about the woman or the reasons, their answer will always be the same.

    I'm partial to your abracadabra
    I'm raptured by the joy of it all

    Where in the World does Teresa Lowe get her facts from?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 198 ✭✭BarleySweets


    The leaders of Fianna Fáil & Sinn Fein are sitting right beside each other on TV3 right now. Micheal is fine but Mary-Lou sounds far more Taoiseach-esque to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,809 ✭✭✭It wasnt me123


    I'm afraid the no debaters tonight are not very good.

    Maria was not allowed to ramble and tell lies
    Ronan is awful
    Declan Ganley keeps quoting US and UK laws and rules, back in history, as he has nothing new to add to the discussion.
    Theresa Lowe talking about her twins being born at 29 weeks - the legislation is not for termination past 24 weeks - more lies

    Yes is going to win on Saturday

    Martin is such a ****. He is a pro lifer.

    Why did he change his stance?

    I think it's going to be a close no victory.

    Has this question some, even tangential or surreal connection to my post or are we having a nice game of non-sequitur now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Mary Lou now trying to use mental health issues as a weapon HOW DARE YOU MARY LOU, is there no depth to which you will drop. DEFEND LIFE

    Mary Lou is people managing this one - she's a great debater


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    What have the No side done over the last 35 years??

    Mad for "doing stuff" now they are. Eh a bit late lads. Your words mean nothing.

    Mary Lou is very good at this in fairness.

    You can be pro life and still vote yes.

    Probably that way myself.

    It's all about people having the right to choose in my opinion. Just as Micheal Martin is entitled to change his mind on an issue after listening to the arguments.
