That's another good idea (an article in the campus newspaper...let's hope they print it). As a suggestion, rather than moralizing about the issue of abortion, it may be worthwhile to talk about the flimsy legal justification for Roe v. Wade. There may even be some arguments along these lines on the Internet (or the ProLife Council may have such). Also, summarizing Pres. Bush's position, taken from, say,
last year's statement to the pro-life rally in Washington, might be good for an article (not that your sensuality-seeking fellow students at UCR would necessarily listen to Pres. Bush, but it is the Republican position, and you may reach some students who aren't aligned, politically, with the GOP, but who may respond because they agree with the GOP position).

That was a great statement by the President on last year's pro-abortion rally. I remember watching the rally on television, and seeing the teacher's unions (NEA) hosting a room and distributing literature to the pro-abortion crowd.
I think many college students, once they immerse from this radical atmosphere, begin to reflect a little deeper about the meaning and significance of life. When you frame the abortion issue in terms of the radicals that want late-term abortions and government-provided/funded ones, people seem to turn away from this "choice" rhetoric.

Hey, I resent that comment though I know it was not meant to be mean-spirited. Most of us here are very in tune with Bush and the GOP, and probably Reagan even more so... you're right though, I have seen more tolerance of the left amongst Republicans than a typical red state would give.
