It would seem that regardless of your political opinions, you might still admire the transparent, honest and open way in which the administration is providing the facts for you to have opinions ABOUT. I think that's all Jenspeeps was referring to. Thanks, Mod, for stepping in.

I will be watching this website to see where our money is going so I can complain to our politicians that don't listen to the people that voted them into office in the first place. They are all so out of touch it is sickening. They are all out for THEMSELVES.

He does have money slated for birth control, sex education, prenatal care and pap smears. That's kind of like abortion prevention. If pregnancies are prevented when not wanted it prevents a woman from having to make that very difficult decision. Prenatal care saves a lot money on care of babies with birth problems. Pap smears saves money on future cervical cancer treatment. As they say a penny saved is a penny earned.

Yes, those are preventions, but (I don't want to get into a debate, just state what I believe) I don't believe in sex education and birth control.

I'm not sure how accountable / transparent it will actually be, but I applaud the concept... and it's a fine looking website.

BTW, where's the $$$ for the promotion of backyard chicken raising?
