War bothers you, but killing 40,000,000 American babies a year is something we need to keep?

It must be true the Mccain supporters are now trying to change the topic to abortion and killing babies. At any rate Warren is going to be on Larry King soon and King is billing this topic as a headliner. So we can wait a little bit and not make more accusations even with the rapidly growing media coverage of until after we here from Warren.

I am definitely NOT pro-abortion, and neither is Senator Obama, BUT I am 100% pro-choice. It is not up to the country to impose their morality on other's decisions. You do NOT know when "life" starts...and if you give a pat answer, "At conception", then you have to admit that someone else's answer (before a fetus is viable outside of the womb) can be just as truthful...and that it is just YOUR view, no one on Earth can answer this question.

So we shouldn't have laws against armed robbery, spouse abuse, murder etc. because it's not up to the country to impose their morality on other's decisions.

So when a woman feels her baby kicking in her womb, it's not really a baby?


Oh yeah, McCain didn't hear the broadcast of the event while in his motorcade and heard none of the questions.

What I am saying is that NO ONE, not one person, can say when life starts...it is always a personal belief.

As for murder, spousal abuse and other crimes against citizens...that's a weak arguement on your part. Of course there needs to be laws in any society that keeps the individual safe. (Please see above my answer if you reply, "but an unborn child is a citizen.")

Hilarious and they are blaming it on Obama and that it really isn't an issue. Obama is minimizing it as the obvious does not need to be stated. McCain and his people know if he heard the questions and if people want to believe them then ok.
