While that does sound ok and good what bothers me is the fact that McCain has clearly come out saying he's pro-life.  To pick a partner that doesn't agree means they start out divided already and makes McCain look bad from the get go. 

I hope you're right Boudica. 

KFC, I would encourage you to still get to the polls for other issues.  The Senate and House seats are extremely important.  I only see one House of Representative seat for Florida up for grabs (15th Congressional District).  I'm not sure if that is your district but if it is then Your vote is crucial. 

I'm not excited about either Presidential Candidates (currently) but the House and Senate election is very important. 

As for my pick on VP Choice. 

I would love to see Sarah Palin as his pick.  The media buzz is Mitt Romney and I would be okay with him.

That is difficult. If this is about the rights of the unborn wife, why should the unborn baby be punished for his biological father's (or in the case of incest for his biological parents') crime?

Yes. But I don't think that has ever been the issue.

I don't follow that logic.

If we allowed abortion under certain circumstances, why would it have to be legal under all circumstances?

My guess is that McCain will pick Pawlenty and Obama will go with Kaine.

Roe V Wade did not do that.

Please!  Before he destroys this state!

Amen ...I'm here too.

Yes, I should have correctly said that in 1973 Roe v. Wade established abortion as the artificial "law of the land"...as there is no "right" to abortion and never will be as long as Justice looks down from Heaven. Willful murder is a sin that cries out for God's vengeance.

Abortion is not legal and therefore is not the "law of the land". Article VI of our nation's founding document declares that "this Constitution, and the laws of the United States...made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties...made...under the authority of the US shall be the supreme law of the land."  What  is clearly missing here in the list of supreme laws is court opinion, including that of the US Supreme Court. And this is a biggy. Our Constitution writers knew that a court decision could never be law, much less supreme law of the land.  This is especially true if that court desision contradicted the Constitution itself.

Roe V Wade was judicial supremacy absurdity by unelected justices! It's nuts and has resulted in the intentional death of over 50 milliion babies. They are complicit with every death by abortion and we Catholics are complicit if we vote for a pro-abortion politician who furthers this murderous holocaust.

KFC is 100% right. Given the US Supreme Court justices for whatever reasons bought the lie and were basically tricked. OKay....that was 1973 and the truth has been revealed since then by everyone concerned. The father of abortion is also the father of lies. Christ said of Satan that "He was a liar and a murderer from the beginning." The lies surrounding Roe v. Wade and all the subsequent abortions that have taken place since are legion. It's nothing more than political correctness that talks about "caring and compassion" in helping a woman kill her child in what was once the most safest place to be in the planet.....the womb.  

Keeping Religion out of it, first, it did not allow abortion on demand for anyone at any time.  It clearly set up an arbitrary system of trimesters (and one of the reasons it is still called the worst case of law ever - either you have a right or you do not).  Second, indeed, it never established a right of abortion, but used the right of privacy to dictate what a woman could do (again within the arbitrary deliniation set down by the justices).

As for it being murder, that is an absolute for some, an impossibility for others, and for the worst, just a case of situational ethics.  The latter I hold in contempt.

getting back to the VP choice and the happenings in Virginia.

Alot of news going on in Lynchburg where Obama has been the last day or so.  Seems as tho he had a big parking lot of 800 spaces all marked out next to where he was speaking.  Well it turned out Liberty owned the land these parking spaces were on and refused to let Obama use it for fear of retaliation and trying to stay out of the whole mess.

So Liberty sent some of their police force to close up the lot and make sure Obama's people stayed out of the area.  People are NOT happy about this.  His following that is. 

So Obama had to rent 15 bus loads to bus people in and all is not well.  Protestors are everywhere and the cranks are coming out of the woodwork against Liberty.  The Liberals are writing in to the local newspaper where my son is an editor.  He said it's a madhouse right now.  Someone likened the whole Obama following to a rock star group come to town.  The following seems almost religious instead of politics per usual. 

There was also some news that happened today although it can't be printed because it's not reliable enough but one of the reporters from the News and Advance got a text message from Obama's camp (It was one of Obama's numbers) saying he was one of the first to get the news of the VP choice.  My son told me who this VP choice was although he said he wasn't sure he got it right so I don't dare say.  

My son said to check the  newspaper for the whole scope.   Here's the link http://www.newsadvance.com/ 

In fact, the frontpage says "Barack Rocks Glass." 

So, is he running for Rock Star or President? 

No matter how one slices and dices Roe v. Wade, it is a legal hoax that has fostered, either directly or from those later decisions based upon it, over 50 million senseless killing of unborn babies. That barbarism falsely called a woman's "right to choose" is what I hold in contempt and especially politicians who approve and work to further it.

Well, had it been your article, I may not have said this, but seeing it is KFC's, and since it is Biblical truth, I thought she'd be OK with it.

Opposition to abortion will never go away. We can't call our country or identify ourselves as civilized as long as it remains an accepted practice.

I did not mean to say you could not, just that I was going to.  Sorry I was unclear.

tease!!!!!

Sure thing, reading back , I see that now.
