Its one thing to outlaw abortions, but ridiculous to then create such huge bureacracy for adoptions that most people find it much easier to adopt children in Asia and Africa. Why didnt Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt adopt an inner city American child? PRobably because in America they might have been deemed "unfit parents"? <BR/><BR/>People who make the rules should be required to pay the tab for enforcing and covering the fallout from those rules. <BR/><BR/>I have struggled with the abortion issue in my mind all my adult life. I can see the justifications from all sides...yet people dont tend to step up with details on how to take care of all the unwanted babies. This should not be the responsibility of the "state"...but there should be strong laws on fiscal responsibility on people who have children. You need to care and protect these children for 18 years if you decree that they must be allowed to be born. The decreer should be the insurer in this regard. I dont think the government is looking at that rationally.<BR/><BR/>Most days I agree with women's choice...unless its "my" child...then I think I should have equal say on whether it is aborted or not. Therein lies the rub.The Global Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13799206875756322855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868637208708070057.post-21889830590571109182008-08-19T13:58:00.000-04:002008-08-19T13:58:00.000-04:00I did not see the whole debate but did see the que...I did not see the whole debate but did see the question of women's rights and abortion. The question comes at the core of the religious point of view. <BR/><BR/>Both gave good answers to represent their points. Still there is much much more to this.<BR/><BR/>This is a heated topic with many people. What I wish was asked in conjunction with this question is the social programs required to insure the stability of a nation that supports the birth of unwanted children. <BR/><BR/>It is easy to say that rights are provided at conception. And therefore not the choice of anyone else no matter what. (Right or wrong is not my point.)However, who is going to support this person into adulthood with all the care and loving that is required for a healthy functioning adult. That is roughly 18 years. This coming from a party that supports small government and no social programs. Basically, "good luck". <BR/><BR/>This is in general. The idea of big govt small govt is an old concept and not as clear with each party as it once was.<BR/><BR/>Still, let's be realistic on the overall cost of these statements and the responsibilities that puts on those that make them. <BR/><BR/>To make a statements on this issue and then say that's it is not to answer the question.<BR/><BR/>A bit off your topic but I never understood this.Hank Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17802803538410222171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868637208708070057.post-61249839638169489392008-08-17T21:11:00.000-04:002008-08-17T21:11:00.000-04:00anyone think the VP choice will make a difference ...anyone think the VP choice will make a difference ?<BR/><BR/>These choices are so bad I know people that refuse to vote - they do not think they are throwing their vote away at all - just making a choice.<BR/><BR/>Obama - Rev Al Sharpton and Rev Jessie Jackson.... Now what do you think that would bring us all ?

Tiene en su contra el partido politico que lo respalda, tiene ahora muy mala fama por culpa de su actual presidente.<BR/><BR/>Cualquiera que sea,el proximo presidente, que los votantes elijan, que se a el mejor, mas prudente, inteligente y objetivo.<BR/><BR/>Suerte Norte America.
