Schwarzenegger said the Republican Party should move "a little to the left" on issues such as abortion -- a shift he claims would pick up more voters.

Giving up values for votes? No thanks.

[Hi Heels]

Maybe you can tell me what that has to do with women abstaining until they are ready to have babies? And maybe you can turn the hostility down a notch.

I think Ahnold should learn to shut his streudel hole or head back to Berchtesgaden.

Is that why he is known as the terminator.......

Yeah the Innocent Baby Terminator.

Gives me warm fuzzies all over knowing that Arnold Schwarzenkennedy will never be the President of the United States!

"Schwarzenegger's statements that the GOP would not lose its base if it embraces ... abortion rights show extreme arrogance and total ignorance concerning the values and dedication of the party's core constituents," England said.

"Schwarzenegger has spent too much time in Hollywood. He needs to start mingling more with mainstream Californians," she added.

Mr. Schwarzenegger has a long way to go before I will consider him to be a conservative.

[Hi Heels]

"Schwarzenkennedy"... HAHAahahah...

[Ed Current]

Mr. Schwarzenegger has a long way to go before I will consider him to be sane.

"This would immediately give the party 5 percent more votes without its losing anything elsewhere."

You provided the response to this: Losing values and morality is a devil's deal.

[Avenger]

"They can be more lenient to the pregnant woman but nail the provider for second degree murder of a child with life in jail or death penalty."

Why? If it is wrong it is wrong. The doctor is only carrying out the wishes of the mother. If the mother was able to abort the unborn child on her own why should she be any less responsible? That being the case, the next question come to how we would enforce such a law? This is where I have some issues.

"Just making it illegal and NOT trumpeting it like it was some glorious right of all free woman would be a start."

Completely agree that it should not be trumpted like it is. I think society should make it a (nearly) unacceptable choice. However, I don't like the idea of the government getting involved too much since as I said before enforcement would lead to a nightmare since it is really quite easy for a woman to abort an unborn child on her own without any outside assistance.

Thanks for opening a few more eyes here, Eddie...

Schwartzenegger has always stealth lib hiding behind the (R).

This should give a clear picture of the topic:

"The question as to when a human person begins is a philosophical question - not a scientific question. I will not go into great detail here, but ""personhood"" begins when the human being begins - at fertilization." http://www.l4l.org/library/mythfact.html This objective argument refutes all metaphysical speculations stating otherwise.

Thank you! for restating the position the Catholic Church has held for more than 2000 years.

Schwarzenegger is to the Republican Party what John Kerry is the Democrats - a CINO,/b> Catholic In Name Only. Fortunately, as a foreigner, he can't run for the presidency. Let him wallow in the slime he has created in his 'adopted country and state'.

but most of us do not believe that a 10-day old glob of cells is human.

If this "glob of cells" continued its growth unhindered, please let us know just what in the hell would pop out in nine months. A human being or a labrador retreiver?

Is a lit match "fire", or does it only count when it has engulfed the house?

[rogator]

"... but most of us do not believe that a 10-day old glob of cells is human."

Does "most of us" include Democrats and other assorted liberals?
"Most of us" conservatives see a developing human being in that "10-day old glob of cells".

Nothing personal to all of you anti-folks,

Nothing personal to you either, but please save the loaded, canned rhetoric for somewhere else. Most of us here, are quite "pro" in all areas, including "choice" when you are using it in an honest context.
