and people are convicted and sent to prison with it. Most of the time, the people are also guilty. I don't need line for line to tell me she wanted to ban the book. It falls right in line with her views.

On another note, it's not really about being a Republican or Democrat at this stage of American history. Oil Company execs run our country right now, and I am over it.

Plus, we MUST keep church and state seperate to prosper and to keep our civil liberties. Just because Palin is a woman doesn't mean I can relate to her. She has birthed 5 kids, is "thrilled" that her 17 year old daughter is pregnant by a "self proclaimed redneck", wears designer glasses yet has all these mouths to feed... I cannot comprehend. I have two kids, and haven't shopped at the mall in 5 years. Please... I beg all women everywhere to take a REAL in depth look at Palin, her past, her beliefs, and her intentions. Don't vote for her just because she is a woman... because before you know it, she will be the ONLY woman with a choice.

It was a figure of speech... I was basing it on "public opinion" of circumstantial evidence. I am fully aware of the "laws" of printed journalism.

Say what you like, what you will, everyone (even you and Sarah Palin) are entitled to your opinions and beliefs. The real issue is when you want to ENFORCE them on others. I DO NOT want someone, man or woman, in the White House fighting about issues we as a nation have already overcome. We need to fix more urgent matters. To be preoccupied with what other folks read shows alot about how much control ones ego needs to thrive. Wouldn't you agree??

I am not ENFORCING my view on you... I am not in a position of power to where that is even possible. Even if I was, it should not be up to me or YOU to choose what a woman can do with her body. I am not going to get into an Abortion debate with you on this forum. However, send me an invite to any thing topic related to it, and I'll gladly lend my insight. And sure, the fight still rages on, but the woman's right to choice still trumps the "defenseless" argument.

Middle of the road does exist, just not to you. Now I know why, it's because your damn eyes are closed.
