On Obama urges his Wisconsin supporters to vote now

Obama didn't chair ACORN ... He never organized with ACORN. Ken Blackwell (best known for his dual role as Ohio Secretary of State and chair of George Bush’s Ohio campaign in 2004) likes to attack Obama with lies about his supposed connection to ACORN.
Fact: Barack was never an ACORN community organizer.
Fact: ACORN never hired Obama as a trainer, organizer, or any type of employee.
Fact: ACORN was not part of Project Vote, the successful voter registration drive Barack ran in 1992.
In his capacity as an attorney, Barack represented ACORN in a successful lawsuit alongside the U.S. Department of Justice against the state of Illinois to force state compliance with a federal voting access law.

truth1 ... thanks for sourcing your stats. Maybe the "skyrocketing" occurred because women were going to doctors (not the "back alley" as they say) and actual records were being kept?

ncpanfan ... the ironic thing here is that we agree. I wish more people chose better paths so that they didn't have to choose abortion. I wish they would respect themselves and their bodies more. Abortion should not be used as birth control. I just have a problem with the government interfering in a personal decision. Keep in mind, even though you and I agree that babies are babies at the moment of conception, not everyone believes that. And I don't think the government should be making those decisions for us.

The term "pro choice" does not mean you are "pro abortion." I am pro choice. I have not had an abortion, nor would I. I have two beautiful children. I'm all for adoption and birth control as alternatives. I am, however, for the choice of a woman to make the decision herself.
ncpanfan: "After all if your moms weren't pro-life you wouldn't even be here to make that decision." By the way, my mother is also pro choice, and obviously, I'm here today.
Truth1: Can you cite where you get your statistics about "convenience" pregnancies (as we're calling them)? I just said not all abortions are for convenience, but I didn't name any numbers. I'd like to know where you actually got that figure of 95%.

Of course abortion is a horrible reality, but it doesn't take away a woman's right to make a personal decision about her life & body. Abortion isn't always a matter of convenience. Sometimes the baby is not developing correctly and will die shortly after birth (as was the case of one of my friends who desperately wanted a baby). I have met several women who have had abortions, and none of them took the decision lightly. This is not to say they regret their decision. But let's leave the decision to them and not the government.
And BillNewbie ... "Those of us who have been exposed to such indoctrination and have failed to adopt it may wonder why, if women must be trusted to make good decisions regarding their own bodies, so many seem to make such poor decisions for their bodies prior to conception?" That's just insulting to insinuate that adult women cannot make decisions regarding their own body. You're assuming, as I stated before, that all abortions are due to convenience. Grow up.

Am I the only one who finds this e-mail directive completely unfair? I can't believe there's not more discussion going on here.

Regardless of them being communist or not, the U.S. owes a lot of money to China. I'd hate to see any languages cut, but I feel adding Chinese is important too. Too bad everything costs so much.

I guess I consider myself a Packers fan first; a Brett fan second. I wish him luck, but I'm still loyal to the Pack.
