Condi "Mildly Pro-Choice"
http://www.drudgereport.com ^ | 3-11-2005 | Matt Drudge

Posted on 03/11/2005 6:32:41 PM PST by Sola Veritas

Rice pointedly declined to rule out running for president in 2008 on Friday during an hour-long interview with reporters at WASHINGTON TIMES, top sources tell DRUDGE. Rice gave her most detailed explanation of a 'mildly pro-choice' stance on abortion, she would not want the government 'forcing its views' on abortion... She explained that she is libertarian on the issue, adding: 'I have been concerned about a government role'... Developing late Friday for Saturday cycles... MORE...

Is FR hiccupping or is it my system? Veeery slow.

During the 2000 debates, I saw McCain twice with the other Reublican candidates. In Columbia and Aiken, SC. In Columbia I sat with our Mayor and state Senator and their impression was the same as mine so I don't think I'm too off base here.

McCain, when the camera was not on him paced liked a caged animal. He looked angry enough to chew glass and a couple of times seemed to "come to" and realize he was on stage and although not on camera, was in full view of hundreds of people.

Around the 2000 election, there was a small one paragraph article in the Washington Post Page Six section, IIRC, that said Washington insiders KNEW that McCain did not have the temperment or stability to be president. There was concern that he was doing so well at one point because of his instability.

Ectopic pregnancies will not go to viability and you probably know that. A tubal or intra abdominal pregnancy will result in an embryonic demise, begin bleeding intraabdominally and require surgery to save the bleeding mother. There is virtually 0 chance of an ectopic pregnancy being taken to term. Very, very, very, rare. It does not belong in this debate.

Yes,it is,but would you please tell the extremists here that? I was once,long ago, hounded and called all kinds of names one night,because I talked about the horrors of ectopic pregnancies and how I felt that in these cases, abortions were valid.

>>>That situation really is rare. Tumors on both ovaries would make it very, very difficult to conceive. >>>

Actually, they are on one ovary and ironically made it EASIER for her to get pregnant. Somehow she was putting out eggs at a faster rate and even though she was pregnant, was ovulating when they did the ultrasound. I don't know all the medical facts, but something to do with triggering the ovary or something. The position of the cysts and the fallopian tube. Probably something hormonal too. I know when my mother had ovarian cancer, she was post menapausal but started having PMS symptoms regularly every month. She had already had a uterine hysterectomy so she didn't have a cycle of menstruation, but she did have the PMS symptoms. Strange what the body can do. Of course at the time she had no idea what was going on until they discovered the tumours at a gyno visit.

However I am glad things worked out well for your pregnancy. I had a scare with my youngest and turned out I miscarried her twin. Fraternal of course, so seperate sacks.

LOL.

Well, I can now add evil. I'm evil. Of course, so is nearly every person I know on the planet. I've only met one or two absolutists, but then I'm so evil, I don't hang with nice people :-)

Tim Pawlenty, George Allen, and, yes, even Mark Sanford are quite capable of beating Hillary

I like all three guys with Sanford at the top but I must admit that sometimes George Allen gets that Hale Bopp look going.

Oh I have had my eye on him for some time, and have commented upon it. I consider him a top tier candidate. I think the anti Mormon thing in the South is BS. Heck they elect and have elected Catholics in a few CD districts that are almost all Baptist. And this from a guy who thinks the religion still needs to fully account for Mountain Meadows - honestly. But none of that has anything to do with Romney of course.

>>>Sorry about your mom.>>>

Thank you. It'll be three years in May and it still hurts although a little duller. I am an only child and she was my best friend.

Oh yeah, didn't I tell you? Evil is even worth mentioning, it's so common. I bet you look like a homocidal terrorist bent on world destruction, too.

Yes, Rice is known to be more pro-choice than just the three exceptions. It's silly that they're trying to say otherwise.

I have never seen Pawlenty or Sanford on the tube. I have seen Allen; he won't cut it.

the other two are murder of an innocent to "remedy" a crime by a third party. It's immoral and sickening.

Do you feel the killing of innocent Iraqi civilians (including women, children, and pregnant females) as a remedy for the crimes of the Ba'athists under the control of Saddam is immoral and sickening as well? I just wonder how absolute you are over the deaths of innocent people.

Oh. My mom is one of my best friends too and I can't imagine losing her that way. In the end, my aunt was so sick with ovarian cancer she was vomiting feces. I didn't know the human body could do that.

>>>The fact is, that many (too many) women would rather put their figure, their career, or their convenience before the life of their (unborn) child.>>>

So sad and so true. I knew a woman who had her third abortion. Her reason; her boss told her it was completely irresponsible to get pregnant right now with the deadline and all...

I agree. Pawlenty is smooth. Sanford is all business. Both smarter than Allen.

LOL.

The name calling alone is so unChristian that I wonder where they got their pro life positions from. It certainly wasn't from any church I've been involved with.

Don't lash out at other posters like that. Period.
