Well, so much for those who claim there is no difference between the two parties.

I'm just wishing there was more!

How much of our money did he give Planned Parenthood in 2002 Title X funding?

It might just be geography; I'm from Missouri.

Willard Duncan Vandiver, Congressman from Missouri, speaking at a banquet in Philadelphia in 1899:

"I come from a state that raises corn and cotton and cockleburs and Democrats, and frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri. You have got to show me."

It's customary for Republican presidents to make pro-life noises once a year. If I recall, Ronald Reagan actually went so far as to phone it in. Every year, right on time. Whatta guy. Not unlike lighting the National Christmas Tree, except that presidents do still believe in Santa Claus, sort of (when they look in the mirror, mostly).

I wish I could take this proclamation as something more serious than just wallpaper, but I can't. If sentiments such as these were a part of Dubya's regular discourse, informing the everyday operation of his administration, rather than ceremonial gestures, I might have received this message with renewed enthusiasm, and not a deepening cynicism.
