Well, Dr. Kopp, you've gotten your answer.

FReepers, especially those of us who are pro-life, can make distinctions. Something you, as a one-issue voter, can't.

Ridge's views on abortion have nothing to do with this administrative position.

You come across as a priggish church lady.

Bush has appointed (or I prefer moved) others...Christie Todd Whitman is a baby-killer; she's now in a position that she can't do anymore damage to the pro-life cause.

He's moving Ridge to another position; this allows for maybe a pro-life replacement to take his place in PA.

"The Pro-Life Action League will come off no better than Peter Jennings if they keep this up.

I too am anti abortion, and I'm with you on this.

But I sure wish the Arabs would have started practicing abortion about 40 or 50 years ago!

Golly, Gee Whiz. If my memory serves me right, weren't most of the Europeans who participated in the Crusades Catholic? Is there a hidden agenda here? END OF SARCASM!!! Get a life for God's sake (pun intended).

So what, I abhor abortion, but I don't think Ridge will be sending CIA, or FBI agents to any abortion clinics in his new position. Nice timing , thanks for the heads up. Sheeeesh, lighten up, I'll help you fight that battle when we have a target.

To be honest, I don't see what a person's views on abortion have to do with homeland security...

Exactly-- all the single issue people ARE IDIOTS. Unless the single issue they're interested in is the war. The world changed on September 11 and only the fools don't know that.

Matt Abbott, director of public affairs for America's Pro-Life Action League told LifeSite, "If Ridge refuses to ensure the security of the most helpless citizens of his state - the unborn - how can he be expected to safeguard security for the nation?"

You've GOT to be kidding me.

Thanks RC for giving us a heads up on something we should all be aware of.

I like Bush (though I would like him more if he went after 'Toon corruption and treason) but this could end up in one large POWER GRAB for the Government, and I think Freepers of all people should be the ones casting a weary eye at some of the govenments actions.

That's almost as stupid as "If you can't trust me with a choice, how can you trust me with a child?"

As soon as I heard about Ridge, I thought, "Jeez, I wonder what kind of protection he's gonna offer the unborn child in the womb?"

Tom Ridge must have had a D & C on his skull.

It will be years before he is taken seriously again.

How about somebody that is against RKBA

....In May of 1994, then Rep. Tom Ridge teamed up with President Bill Clinton, Sarah Brady (HCI) and Rep. Charles Schumer (D-NY) to pass the semi-auto gun and magazine ban. By casting his vote for the gun ban in a narrow 216 to 214 loss for America's gun owners, Ridge's one vote can arguably be blamed for its passage and subsequent inclusion in the Clinton crime bill of 1994. In August of 1994, after GOA led a coalition of grassroots activists which nearly defeated the Clinton crime bill, Ridge continued his opposition to America's gun owners. He voted for the rule to bring the crime bill and its gun ban to the floor for a vote. (Ridge was one of only 42 Republicans to do so.) He then voted for final passage of the crime bill -- one of only 46 Republicans to do so. In the Spring of 1995, Sarah Brady teamed up with newly elected Gov. Tom Ridge to push one of Pennsylvania's most restrictive state gun control laws in a long time -- Act 17. As Pennsylvania's Governor, Ridge presided over the passage of Act 17, and then signed it into law. GOA opposed this bill from its inception and teamed up with several pro-gun state organizations to lead the national charge against the bill. Act 17 registered and taxed long gun buyers and placed other restrictions on Pennsylvanians' gun rights. ...
