McCain's lack of candor on reproductive rights
On issues like abortion and sex education, the candidate is neither as moderate nor as principled as some might think.
By Joe Conason [2008-04-11]

  • I value human life

    "A society that doesn't encourage values of personal responsibility for ones own choices and a reverence for human life is in a sorry state IMO - and if those sentiments mark me out as a misogynist in some peoples eyes then I can only pity their narrowness of mind."

    I value it, much more than you. Because VALUING human life is different that WORSHIPING MINDLESS PROCREATION. For you and the other woman-hating jerks of the world, you believe that a woman with 20 children, all of whom are malnourished, are more valuable and better than a woman with one child who has aborted 19.

    I prefer to see FAR MORE ABORTIONS. That's because, for me, life begins at birth, and what happens from conception to birth is not really important, although alcohol and cocaine should be minimized. However, if you want to abort, be my guest.

    You life-hating types really piss me off. You believe in mindless procreation, making humans just big starfish or slime-molds. I believe that we are intelligent beings, and value human life most by making sensible decisions.
