From this spewage by Kerry to an Aspen audience on 6/21/04.....

We need a president who believes in science again in America," Kerry said. "We need to be prepared, and one of the first things that I will do as president by executive order immediately is reverse the gag rule and also move America forward to do stem cell research and begin to find the cures we need."

I was looking for past Kerry statements about the first EO he said he would enact because I'm certain that he said the same thing about an entirely different subject....

I'll find it.

I was thinking today, about F'n claiming to believe that life begins at conception, but he wouldn't challenge abortion: how can we expect him to guard America from terrorists when he won't even fight for his own "beliefs."

The real Kerry returned a few moments later, with a preposterously unclear statement on his first executive order: "Reverse the Mexico City policy on the gag rule so that we take a responsible position globally on family planning."

I guess it all depends on what the definition of "first" is.

Maybe I am crazy, but I could swear at some point Kerry said his first action would be to reverse every single EO from President Bush. I remember thinking at the time what a childish statement....

What is the gag rule?
