You really have no clue if you think women have abortions for convenience and so that they can have more fun. Girlz just wanna have fun!!! No, I don't find it paradoxical because it is a fetus in the later stages of development in the womb, until it is born at full term. Then it is a baby. Look it up in a dictionary.

I made it clear that everyone loves babies. But you can love babies and still support privacy rights and freedom. Because as, described above, there are differences between and among an embryo, a fetus, and a baby.

I think Hedberg offers reading comprehension skills. You might benefit.

Precious little babies wasn't used in a derisive fashion. I was merely using it to show you that these same precious little babies are just as precious when they are older and still require services like health care, child care, education and the like. Are you that dense that you think that there are people out there who hate babies? Do you think women get abortions because it is fun? Have you ever had an abortion and dealt with the physical pain? Your problem, billnewbie, is that you cannot appreciate or even understand nuances. To you it is either you love babies or you hate babies. Unfortunately things don't fall that neatly into two categories. You can love babies and still resent legislation that the Republicans (cleverly, I grant them that) market as "Born Alive" but is essentially is a back-door attempt to gradually overturn Roe v. Wade. But you clearly cannot grasp that.

Really? The oil prices aren't from new markets like China and India coming online or from market speculators driving up the price tax-free? The oil prices aren't affected at all by the sinking dollar? They aren't affected by Bush's skillful handling of Hugo Chavez and all the oil Chavez controls? I didn't know that such a complex situation could have just a single source. You should really let Paulie Ryan know -- I bet he could fix the problem. Oh wait, he has been in Congress for how many terms now and the price of gas has gone up on his watch. Never mind.

Billnewbie: So if a woman miscarries, is she complicit in infanticide? According to your logic, she is at least partially responsible for killing this 'person' who is 10 weeks old in her womb. And then what about the father's role? Time to make room in the jails.

And it isn't changing the topic to raise the logical extension of your support of all these precious little babies. I just want to make sure you are consistent when all these precious little babies get older.

Coast2coast lumped Obama in with Jackson, Sharpton and Farrakhan. Essentially, the only thing these four have in common is that they are all African American (though Obama is biracial). They fall in different places in the political spectrum. Coast2coast, you have no credibility whatsoever. Your view below confirmed it for me.

Billnewbie: Again, you need to sharpen your reading comprehension skills. The fact pattern was: A woman's uterus *naturally* discharges a chunk of tissue (defined as a person under the Born Alive act) act week 10. Also essentially known as a miscarriage. This is extremely common during the first trimester. I know that you are not terribly familiar with females or female issues given your incredibly sexist comments regarding "what women want" when it comes to a President. But I digress. Under Born Alive, a doctor would be required to keep that "person" alive. What, in a petri dish? Even though the body has rejected the "person". This makes absolutely no sense. Obama recognized that this is a rather sophisticated attempt by Republicans to gradually strip away the privacy rights recognized by Roe v. Wade.

On a similar note, I'm sure that you also support funding for child care, equal wages for working women (since they are the primary supporters of children), health care, good schools and subsidies for student loans. Because respecting the sanctity of human life doesn't end at 9 mos.

Achey: You are publicly admitting that you voted for Dubya in the last election? You are crazier than I thought. You must be so proud, given the current state of... everything. He can't even get the long-time Bush allies, the Saudis, to increase oil production. What a useless, incompetent President. Nice rubber-glue comeback. Very sophisticated analysis.

fldplan, the Born Alive Act is just an attempt to strip away a woman's right to chose. It is an oblique attempt to define a fetus as a person and confer those rights on the fetus. So, essentially a doctor would be required to try to 'keep alive' a chunk of tissue that is naturally discharged by a woman's body at week 10. Apparently, Fox News is spoonfeeding you images of bouncing babies being slaughtered. By your logic then, Bush must really hate children because he vetoed a bill providing insurance to poor children. And McCain must really hate soldiers because he did not vote for a bill providing greater GI benefits.

There are crazy preachers supporting McCain as well (e.g. Hagee). As far as idiotic wife, you can't touch her intellectually. Blackhawk Tech's janitorial program does not match up with Harvard Law.

Whybesad, what about McCain's role in the Keating 5? How about the money he accepted from Charles Keating? If he doesn't actually do time, it doesn't really count against him, right? Is that o.k.? Also, what about his campaign consultants who have profited from contracting jobs with oppressive regimes in Myanmar and other third-world countries. Is it o.k. if he accepts money from those sources? As long as US citizens aren't suffering, and the countries are far away, it is o.k., right? Just want to be clear.

Achey: Just a heads' up -- there are also 57 varieties of Heinz. So, every time you use a Heinz product, you are secretly supporting Al-Qaeda. I bet you didn't know that. Time to paste up some more newsclippings in your shed and adjust your aluminum hat.
