  • Re: So sick of this.

    Correction.... one point six million murders per year. Almost fifty million since Roe v. Wade. That's roughly 17% of our population. That's 1/6 of our population - young people who would be starting their own families now, paying taxes, buying houses and contributing to society that are missing. Yep, no issue is bigger than slaughtering 1.6 ...

  • Re: something that is never mentioned

    HA! You've fallen for the hype that ''It's just a blob of tissue.'' of ''A bunch of cells.'' But let's just assume (for a moment) that this is true (as you think) during the first trimester. Are you then in agreement that abortion is wrong in subsequent trimesters? Here's a link about fetal development ...

  • Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..

    ... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

  • Good for you!

      I agree with the concept of ''autonomy''; that's what's really at stake for women.  I'd like to make the controversial observation that five of the Supreme Court Justices--Kennedy, Scalia, Thomas, Roberts, and Alito--are Catholic. Catholicism forbids abortion. Should we consider limiting the number of members of a given religion that can be ...

  • Hitch On Helms like White on Rice

    Gee Hitchens, why don't you and the Queen of England tell us how you really felt about that North Carolinian champion Senator Jesse Helms? I did not know him very well, living in the Midwest among Chicago Democrats and Suburban ''Collar County'' Repubs early in life, and then moving to New England, where both the Democrats and the Republicans have ...

  • Government abuse of power

    South Dakotas law relating to doctor patient communication and abortion: This is just another method for people using and abusing government power. They attempt to control others and legislate morality by forcing their beliefs (usually based on their religion) upon all of society. Their goal is to limit freedom and force conformity with their ...

  • Krebs Can't Shake Imperial Thinking

    It seems like so many pundits, thinkers, politicans, and leaders in America just can't shake the mindset that America must advance its interests abroad through conniving double talk, backstabbing hypocricy, and cutthroat manicheanism. Its like the abuser that beats his kids, realizes its wrong, but resorts back to beating them because it just ...
