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...

You have a lot of gall posting that after the things you said last night. Take a look in the mirror before you dare lecture me.

"Actually, the most common cause is car wrecks. Then comes homicide, then comes medical causes."

But are car wrecks frequently used as an excuse for abortion?

Ah, you think I'm mentally ill. I see.

Personally, I think it is those who run defense for the abortion industry who are kinda sick.

But we all have our opinions, eh?

I don't think that Dr. Rice was ever a candidate who should have been seriously considered for the presidency. At this point in her life, she has almost no experience in administration. She's an academic. She's good in that role, but she's yet to prove herself an able administrator. If she does well as Secretary of State, she'll have shown ability in administration, but she'll still be lacking proof of ability in this area.

If she's serious about being president, she needs to get some experience in elected office and in an administrative office. IF she could be elected mayor of a large city or governor of a state, she'd be in a better position.

Another point is that Republicans generally don't support candidates who don't have "real world" experience. George W. and George H.W. Bush both had business experience in Texas before going into politics. Granted, each of them had help in business from family connections, but they still lived and worked in the real world for a while. Ronald Reagan had somewhat real world experience as an actor and as head of the actor's union. Admittedly, acting is not quite as "real world" as most jobs, but it was more of a real world job when Ronald Reagan started. I don't remember whether Richard Nixon ever had real world experience before running for Congress in California. Gerald Ford was an fluke. Ike Eisenhower was a general. Dr. Rice has an impressive resume, but she still doesn't have much experience outside government and academia. That omission hurts her as a candidate.

do you even know what mildly pro choice means as defined by Condi Rice?

I think the so-called "compassionate" conservatives have some deluded concept of "kinder, gentler" abortions. But IMHO, it's just a flimsy excuse because they don't really give a rat's patoot. These RINOs are more concerned with transnational business transactions, and don't want to be bothered by the moral issues of saving the lives of millions of unborn.

You are really scraping the bottom of the barrel and throwing dung at Peach just to see what sticks.

"I just love the way y'all try and redefine words. It's a wonder to behold." (From Post #1296)

I don't know Peach, when he uses phrases like "the way y'all try to", your paid opinion-shapers comment earlier seems to be making more and more sense to me....

So, do pro-life Republicans have a right to draw a line if we feel that it is the moral and the politically right thing to do when it comes to our Presidential ticket?

Are we wrong to consider abortion to be the central moral question of our day?

Or do you think we should all just sit down, shut up and pull the Republican lever no matter what?

No, I'm just sick of the crap these folks have been throwing at pro-lifers. This is just the latest example.

It's not just a theory. The book "Hillary's Secret War" is about how the Clinton's used the internet, feared the internet, and paid opinion shapers to cause dissent on sites like this one.

Jim Robinson wrote the foreward for the book and FR was featured a few times in it.

I'm probably repeating myself, but want to make sure others can see exactly what I think about some posters here. Paid opinion shapers. I'd bet money on it.
