with every medical procedure there are risks. at least if it's done in a sterile environment the chances are better there will be no complications.

"Because people will have them anyway" is really the worst excuse for having/not having a law that there is. Women still die from botched abortions only you never hear about it because it's not reported and there are all kinds of possible side effects, some serious from even supposed safe abortions.

Bullshit. That's just the Right Wing Machine at it again.

I just LOVE these new McCain ads...

"Sarah Palin fought against the Bridge to Nowhere, and she won."

I mean, if Obama tried to pass off a lie like that, some people on this board would skewer him. But those same people don't seem to have ANY comment when the McCain campaign pulls shit like that.

Oh, and please try to find me, as a countenance, an OBAMA-ENDORSED ad that makes outrageously false claims like that.

She did initially support the bridge to nowhere. However, when she talked to the people of the town that the bridge was to be built in, she found that a ferry system would be just as effective and less costly.

We already talked about it in this thread. Obama's own campaign put out an ad making it look like Rush Limbaugh was being racist when it was obvious from its context that it was a comedy bit about MEXICO'S OWN IMMIGRATION LAWS. Limbaugh was purposely acting as if those laws were ours and how people would react if we enforced immigration laws that way. This Spanish-language ad went on to falsely tie Limbaugh's comments to McCain, when McCain's own beliefs are far from Limbaugh's. Outright lies in that ad and even ABC reported on it.

This was discussed starting on page 17 of this thread and has been mentioned elsewhere also... http://forums.melodicrock.com/phpBB/vie ... &start=480

why do you think young girls wanted to have an abortion? making abortion legal actually forces some young girls to have abortion even if they didnt want to.

You can't be serious Dave. I know you're a poltiical dude, but you're also an intelligent dude! The "bridge to nowhere" being squashed had abolutely nothing to do with Sarah Palin. Also, she kept the money that was given for this "earmark". Those are facts that she isn't even disputing, at this point. I've even heard very recently that "the bridge to nowhere" isn't yet a dead deal and that options are still being explored to get a bridge to Ketchikan! The ad that 7 is talking about is laughable. I'm not going to kill her too much for the ad, because every one of these dopey politicians' ads are full of blatant lies. These ads are all designed to tell half truths and complete falsehoods! I gurantee you that when the debates begin next week and we get the old "fact checks" at the end, from all the political reporters, less than half of everything claimed will have any shred of truth to it. It's really astonishing (and sad) just how many lies that politicians are willing to tell, just to get elected!

During her 2006 gubernatorial campaign, Palin supported the proposed construction of a bridge from Ketchikan to a small island of about 50 inhabitants. That is UNDENIABLE and IRREFUTABLE.

While Palin was mayor of Wasilla, the city received more Federal money per capita than any other city in the country, and still ran up a $22 million debt.

Then, as governor of Alaska, she requested 31 earmarks, totaling $197.8 million, and during the 2008 fiscal year Alaska received almost $380 million in pork barrel spending money, almost $100 million more than any other state. HMMMMM.

Maj. Gen. Craig Campbell, service commander of the AK Guard, told McClatchy that Palin has never order the National Guard to do anything. Interesting.

Palin is also currently under investigation for the firing of State Trooper Mike Wooten, her ex-brother-in-law, while she was governor of Alaska. The Alaska police union has filed a complaint against Palin for allegedly releasing information from Wooten’s personal record. When Alaska public safety commissioner Walt Monegan refused to fire Wooten, Palin had Monegan fired, for which she is also under investigation. The McCain campaign is reportedly attempting to cock-block the investigation, the findings of which were scheduled to be announced on Oct. 31. Now the Alaska Senator in charge of the investigation has said he’ll move up the release date.

As mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, Palin also had a police officer and a library worker fired because they didn’t support her campaign. This isn’t directly related to the “Troopergate” scandal, but the term "track record" comes to mind.

That's why God invented cunnilingus.

Seriously, I do think education is the best answer...if kids know what they're doing and understand the ramifications, they're less likely to have unwanted pregnancies

I agree with some of the things in your post, but some of your facts are messed up. As I understand it, the State Trooper you are referring to is still a member of the Alaska State Police. I believe Palin actually fired his boss (the head of the Alaskan State Police). I think the accusation is that she fired this Public Safety Commissioner (or whatever title Alaska gave the guy) because he wouldn't agree to fire this Trooper. Obviously, none of this has been proven yet. I will say that although I don't support Palin, at all, I wouldn't come to the defense of her ex-brother in law. From what I've read, the guy sounds psychotic and probably has no right to be carrying a gun. That doesn't mean that she went about her business the way she should have. I just don't think she's out of line for suggesting the guy is a nutbag! On another note, it is an absolute fact that the state of Alaska receives more money, per capita, (from the Feds) than any other state in the Union, and it's a pretty wide disparity! I don't know the reasons for that or even if Palin is responsible, but it is an odd fact.

McCain has lost any chance of a vote from me with her as VP. If he kicks the bucket, I do not want her as President of the United States in the times we are in. I was truly on the fence. I consider myself a moderate. I voted for Bush and then reluctantly for Bill Clinton. But my dislike for President Bush is unlike anything I've ever felt for a sitting president before. I voted for Kerry, because more than anything I wanted Bush out of office. I wanted Hillary Clinton as the Democratic nominee. With her out, I was definitely considering McCain. I have a high regard for him, except his view on the war was a big problem. Obama picked Biden, which made me happy. I knew he was never going to pick Hillary, so Biden was my next choice. When McCain announced Sarah Palin, and I read up on her. No way, no how is she going to be the next President if he dies in office. At 72, who he has as VP is very important to me.

Apparently the bill in IL died before it was passed. But I did find this link to MSNBC from last year which references this information, from a BO spokesperson.

Now, my understanding is that his reasoning is to prevent a child from being abused. That's great. I have no problem with that. It is included in the SIECUS guidelines. But why go through all that other stuff to get to it? :?

like i said, i think the sex ed thing was blown way out of proportion. a national guideline is just that- a guideline. it is stated that a child should receive their introduction to sex ed from a parent/family.

when this broke i laughed. to say obama wants a sex ed curriculum implemented in kindergarten is as absurd as saying mccain protects pedophiles over children. the example about "good touching and bad touching" was the driving force of implementing sex ed in kindergarten.
