You know....this entire agenda should never have gotten this far.
It was the left that pushed it here.
There should never have been a gov ruling on abortion.
It shouldn't be all or none.
I know what Condi is waffling on here. AND she isn't waffling for politics.
She is being a woman and she shouldn't have to explain herself.
This whole thing really sucks and it is the left wing agenda that made it suck.
don't toss Condi out. She won't run. She never intended on running. But don't judge her for not saying Federal ban on abortions.
So, answer the question.
Are there enough Republican voters who don't care about abortion to win a general election?
If there are, what are y'all worried about?
You don't seem to be listening to me; my friend's daughter's baby was POISONING her; she was going to die if they did not abort the baby.
Now, I will ask you this for all to see: would you have let the daughter die rather than aborting that baby?
How so?
Indeed, I wish people would recognize that churches should welcome repentent sinners. Unfortunately, all too often the 'right-wing' churches chase sinners into the clutches of liberal guilt-mongers rather than drawing them in through repentance.
Good night to all....and remember, Terri Schiavo's life is the one that is about to be placed on Molech's altar. Pray for her, and keep working on her behalf....it is making a tremendous difference.
"You clearly support Condi for President, so I was asking you what leads you to believe she will appoint such judges."
I would clearly support any Republican who ran for President.
I'll be right alongside you, Petronski. However, I think this entire point is moot.
Once again, like the tabloid whore he is, Drudge dredges up the most scandalous words he can find, taken out of context, more or less, and throws them out like raw meat to the devouring hordes of wild beasts that are the Republicans. Those who don't manage to snap their jaws on a juicy slab of what he tosses just turn to the ones next to them, bare their fangs and sink 'em right in. GOP choppers. Gets us to eat our own and makes the Dims look almost principled. At least they know, as a united group, that they are pro-murder 100% of the time. (except when it comes to animals, of course)
I agree with you, Cicero. Roe v Wade is reprehensible. I am a woman who grew up in the 70's. Back then, they were all talking about a 'blob of cells', I was young and naive and bought into it. There was a time that I was 'pro-choice' (for the record, I now think 'pro-choice' is the same as 'pro-abortion'), I am now pro-life. Wisdom, technology and faith has changed my views.
I think she's saying that she doesn't want the feds to force their views on the states.
"We should not have the federal government in a position where it is forcing its views on one side or the other.As Bush has also said.
States should have the right to enact reasonable laws and restrictions particularly to end the inhumane practice of ending a life that otherwise could live, Bush said.

You know what the saddest part of your story is? If your mother had decided to have an abortion because she had been raped, you would call her a murderer.
What you won't get sucked into this strawman arguement full of hypothetical choices, based on very LIBERAL assumptions? You must be smart.
There isn't a soul here who said that. Quit making up these charges to try and bolster your arguments.
I know pro lifers from every walk of life, every religion and every ethnic group. I know of no group that teaches that the Mothers life doesn't have precedence over the unborn babies.
Almost all of them teach that Moms day being disturbed by the baby is not reason to kill it.
And there are plenty of positions in between.
No. Whats stunning is that some pro-lifers (not me) do not understand whats at stake. Abortion is NOT an issue the President can effect. The issues he CAN affect are the GWOT, Nuclear Proliferation, and Immigration. Those are the issues that will affect our very survival in the next decade. Abandon a candidate because she doesn't tow the pro-choice line, and you abandon any hope of affecting real change re abortion in the future. That is short-sighted.
I agree completely. Rice will either move rightward on abortion if she actually plans to run, or (more likely) will not be the nominee (not winning or, most likely, not running).
I think the hole Hillary v. Condi race is wildly overrated. I doubt either of them will be their party's nominee.
This is what Condi said:
Miss Rice said abortion should be "as rare a circumstance as possible...".
PS....I never dance, but I will take you on the floor for a spin at Condi's Inaugural Ball.
