I suspect alcohol plays a prominent role, but it would be nice to have data to back it up. It would be awfully nice if we could learn the root cause, and maybe please both camps. Imagine a world where abortion is completely legal, yet never ever performed!

I believe we’ve already developed a society where abortion is not necessary. The problem is, in the United States alone, it is a billion dollar a year plus industry. It is only about the money, women’s health is a mere smoke screen. Feminists are retarded for buying into it. Well, and for numerous other ideas too. Abortion is just the tip of the tard scale for feminists.

It is the job of people who are against abortion to point out the multitude of other options (shall I say “choices?”) available to women - reliable birth control, abstinence, sterilisation, adoption, and, of course, the resources for pregnant women offered by charities such as Catholic Charities.

I do think we can develop a society where abortion is not a “necessity;” where women can take care of their bodies and not get pregnant, and the ones who are pregnant can have the resources to remain so. Ultimately, that society will NEVER happen while abortion is seen as a basic human right - it can only happen when we actively move towards treating it as an abomination and legislating accordingly.

And Dan Schnur, a GOP strategist who worked for McCain in 2000, said voters bothered by Giuliani’s messy romantic life “are people who weren’t going to vote for him anyway.”

SUV’s are horrific drivers so caution is in order

I am going to make sure that my (as of yet unpurchased) SUV goes to a good driver’s safety/education class. I heard that one drove into a movie theater the other day. Unfortunately, the driver was the one cited for the incident. Where’s the justice in that??? Of course, a couple years ago, a disgruntled tree fell on a parked SUV once the owners were safely away from it.

I enjoy the way you slice through the fluff and seek root cause. I agree Rudy contains a multitude of negatives, the have it both ways position on abortion being the worst, but only one in a log list.

Right on Scott! However, SUV’s are horrific drivers so caution is in order.

Remember the Clinton/Gore PR crock “Abortion should be cheap, legal and rare”? Or was that NARAL? I’m unsure..

I’m encouraged that a younger person is so politically informed and willing to speak up on the issues of the day, as well as tell others about what’s right and good. Be encouraged!

Thanks,

Hank

If I have my way, absolutely none. Zilch. Zero. Nada. I mean, seriously, once they find out that he is pro-abort, nothing else will matter.

And Scott, I was driving one day and noticed a bumper sticker a couple cars ahead that said “Pro-Choice” really big and then some smaller writing under it. I was driving and stewing and telling myself road rage was bad, even against baby killers, when I found myself directly behind the car. I could now read the smaller writing under the “Pro-Choice,” which was something like what you have written up there. Haha, needless to say, I was slightly embarrassed for getting upset so quickly.
