Grumpy McCain sneers health of the mother

villa - that would be gravy

mmmhhhhh, gravy.

I'm good at predicting these things. I called the primaries for Obama long before anyone else would.

Does Neo telecommunicate with you?

My prediction algorithm is communicated to Mr. Big Dog. He is correct.

But are you THE HAL?

You guys can't get enough of that Obama gravy.

I am A HAL 9000. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error.

I just can't wait for the Rethuglicans (thanks, AJ) to get their butts whipped and for the country to have leadership and move forward once again.

I can't argue with that.

You sure about the leadership?

Yes I am. Obama will tell those that can afford it that they'll have to contribute so we can rebuild the country and economy. Telling people unpleasant truths and standing by it is leadership. McSame - much like his mentor W - doesn't have the balls to tell people unpleasant truths.

remove the Iraqi money drain and crazy presidential vetoes and yes... its a start.

Right. He says everything you want to hear. How much of what he or any other candidate has said becomes reality, the way they promised?

Down here, it feels a lot like he'll carry FL - as they say here, whichever way Tampa Bay goes, the state goes. Obama's campaign is very present here and I think - from talking to people - that it is resonating. Combine that with the Great Schlep and FL goes blue. Now here's where I stick my head out the window: I actually think he'll carry OH as well.

I dunno. I am skeptical of both OH and FL, I think both states are full of tards.

Are the intelligent people in Jersey?

The problem with Ohio is in the southern portion of the state. A potential solution has been offered:

I think everyone knows that an exception for something as vague as "health" .... would result in

a meaningless law.

All anyone would have to do is claim at 6 or 8 months of pregnancy that they feel "depressed".

how hard would it be to get a doctor (for $$$ of course) to claim that this dear ladies "health is in question and she needs to abort this 3rd trimester baby.

Obama has no intention of "reducing abortions" and using the "health of the mother" tactic is clear proof.... even in the third trimester he will not take a stand.

Ironically, the term "health of the MOTHER" must ring painful in the ears of those who try so hard to convince them self they were not mothers when pregnant.

McCain's reaction was disgusting. Being dismissive of women's health is inexcusable. Believe it or not, there are women whose very lives are in danger if pregnancies continue--THAT's what people talk about when they insist on allowing for the health of the woman be a factor. It's not about buying someone off because you're depressed--it's about saving a life.

Then you agree with McCain after all because he (and everyone else) is in agreement that the "life of the mother" is a reasonable cause for an abortion.

"Health of the mother" could mean arguably anything from physical to mental to emotional.

Please do not tell me with whom I do or do not agree. And I certainly don't agree with McCain on the issue of abortion. I believe that a woman has a right to choose what she does with her own body, and it's not up to the government to legislate that. Further, I believe that a woman and her doctors can determine whether or not carrying a pregnancy to term would be detrimental to her health, not just in life-threatening instances. It's not up to you to decide.

Hey, some of my family lives in Ohio!
