This seems silly to me. What earthly connection does a 9/11 investigation have with abortion? I am very strongly in favor of appointing pro-lifers to sensitive positions, or electing them to sensitive offices, but this complaint strikes me as completely silly.
Kissinger would be a questionable choice if anyone expected this commission to turn up embarrassing secrets about intelligence failures. But that isn't in the cards, either.
Kissinger was chosen because he is a person of "stature" in the liberal press who will derail this whole issue and bury it. Meantime, pro-lifers should focus on the important issues, like banning partial birth abortion and cloning and appointing good judges.

The objective of posting this piece, with this headline, was to (try to) sow those tiny little seeds of doubt in the minds of lurkers, "undecideds", and certain conservatives of the naive "reverse-the-last-fifty-years-immediately" crowd.
It's a pretty obvious scumbag operative-planted thread and I'm surprised Jim Robinson has let it live this long. But whatever. I'm confident that nobody's buying anyway.

Of the 101 reasons why Kissinger is wrong for the job, this is 102.

Kurt Waldheim was a "person of stature", too, but I still didn't like the ideaof an ex-SS officer running the UN.
I'm with Polycarp. Either you're pro-life or you're in favor of sucking out the brains of babies. Anybody who's in favor of the latter shouldn't be treated any diffrently than would a person in favor of shoveling Jews into ovens. Murder = murder.
Don't let 'em shake you, Poly. Winning elections isn't the only thing; in fact, when one looks at the big picture, it's pretty nearly nothng at all. God doen't care if the GOP controls the Congress; God only cares about Good and Evil. Better a Democrat-controlled Congress, Presidency, and Supreme Court than a government run by Republicans who are willing to compromise with Evil just to "win" politically.
In any system of representaive government, the will of the voters can trump the Will of God. Just another reason democracy is a bad idea. Stick to your guns, Polycarp.
