So you have to fight a particular agenda to be labeled accordingly? I don't think it is oversimplified. If Condi were otherwise pro-life, with these exceptions, and chooses to call herself mildly pro-choice, isn't that term correct? This has nothing to do with whether you believe rape and incest should be capital crimes. This is about what Condi defines as mildly pro-choice versus the definition of pro-life with exceptions.

If the circumstances are the same, then to me, the terms mildly pro-choice and pro-life with exceptions mean the exact same thing. But because of politics, on side will claim one definition while the other side claims the other.

You could be right on that. I have made the point a number of times that she could be more honest than some who call themselves pro-life. But having said that, she is adopting the wording and the rhetoric and the semantics of the other side. That doesn't bode well, and would exclude her from my support in any case.

I've more than once expressed my admiration for her on many personal and professional levels.

But the fact is, the pro-life cause is far more important than the future resume of this unwilling candidate of some people's imaginations.

Have a nice evening, rintense.
