(a replay on CNN) It was so nice to see them laughing and looking relaxed and human! (nt) - carlymac 10/17/2008 10:26:16 CDT (0) I heard about it all over the radio this morning- clips here and there. Definitely some good stuff!

I don't think I mentioned this yet.... but I really love the whole idea of you guys being the "Aunts" Just love it!

Come on over! (nt) - gelsum 10/16/2008 17:41:54 CDT (1) Really? Where are you? Eight hours is a piece of cake!

Heather, I have a question for you related to something you mentioned earlier... - live4truth13 10/16/2008 11:43:31 CDT (1) Aw man, BUSTED! - thequeenbeam 10/16/2008 12:12:01 CDT (1) Thanks for the response. Yes, that does answer the question. And - live4truth13 10/16/2008 17:24:21 CDT (1) I agree with Joanne! - carlymac 10/16/2008 18:49:29 CDT (0) 21. For all of you fellow Catholics, yesterday our local news had a human interest story about the nation's oldest voter (m) - PaulaK 10/16/2008 10:49:43 CDT (3) I saw this several days ago and hesitated to bring it up - seems odd to me... but what do I know?! (nt) - nancys6kids1dog 10/16/2008 11:21:03 CDT (1) links> - nancys6kids1dog 10/16/2008 11:25:11 CDT (0) Actually, here's another link for you. A Catholic Archbishop in Africa. I agree with him. - zookeeper 10/16/2008 13:05:53 CDT (1) My in-laws are flying in from Texas this afternoon, so I will not be able to participate much after this... - mirkyunlog 10/16/2008 14:52:11 CDT (3) Typical rebuttal: A Catholic Archbishop and Nun aren't Catholic enough. And that's all I'm going to contribute here too. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/16/2008 18:01:11 CDT (1) Aren't Catholic enough??? How exactly do you define Catholic enough? (m) - wildrose 10/16/2008 18:45:04 CDT (3) I might suggest that>> - nancys6kids1dog 10/16/2008 19:21:03 CDT (2) I thought of that right away too. Also . . . (m) - wildrose 10/16/2008 19:32:51 CDT (0) The news story said the nun reads the paper daily, and showed her on film doing it. I know, that doesn't mean she's well informed. (nt) - PaulaK 10/17/2008 19:55:18 CDT (0) I think that a 106yo Nun and an Archbishop are probably not ignorant of the Church's teachings, and are farther along in their faith journey than most lay people. "Dissidents" is that dirty Catholic word. - zoounlogged 10/16/2008 20:24:56 CDT (0) Just adding, that quote is awesome and says much better than I what I keep trying to teach my kids. (nt) - joyofsix 10/17/2008 05:48:33 CDT (0) Obama not only supports abortion, but he promised Planned Parenthood that the FIRST act he would strive to perform as President is to sign the "Freedom of Choice" bill. Basically wiping out ALL current state abortion laws. Radical. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/16/2008 21:26:21 CDT (4) My only question is why the heck didn't McCain nail him on that when he had a chance last night. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/16/2008 21:27:09 CDT (1) Maybe because he thought he might loose more votes if he made an issue of it. He already has the Conservative Christian vote wrapped up. (nt) - carlymac 10/17/2008 10:38:04 CDT (0) It's horrifiying to me that the state laws currently in place that require minors to get parental consent would go away . . . (m) - wildrose 10/16/2008 22:09:15 CDT (1) That's right -- all abortion laws protecting women and the unborn would be wiped out if this were to pass. He would undo years of legislation and virtually ensure NO limits on when you can abort an unborn child. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 09:41:01 CDT (1) Can you explain "protect women"? (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 10:16:50 CDT (2) Many states limit late-term abortion, in part . . . - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 10:25:43 CDT (1) The FOCA limits late term abortions too. (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 10:34:54 CDT (1) No, PP opposes all limitations on abortion. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 12:30:20 CDT (1) I am sitting here reading the bill. It limits late term abortions too. - zookeeper 10/17/2008 12:55:56 CDT (3) People DO do it (there is no dispute there, not even by PP) and "health" of the mother is a broad-term that basically means anytime she wants to. I hope this particular action finally brings RVW back to the SC. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 13:18:32 CDT (1) Also, there are no cases where a PBA is ever necessary to save the life of the mother. The wording is a shady way to continue the activity and over-ride the states. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 13:20:05 CDT (0) Partial Birth Abortion is a gruesom, torturous procedure that should NEVER be performed. If you can go through that procedure, IMO, you can give birth. . . (m) - wildrose 10/17/2008 18:32:20 CDT (0) Here's the way I see it - leenieunlog 10/18/2008 12:52:06 CDT (1) I think that's a really really far stretch. Actually- the law on the books says - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 15:03:24 CDT (0) When we desire to "protect women" we are also talking about all the physical and mental effects of abortion . . . (m) - wildrose 10/17/2008 22:42:11 CDT (1) Stacey, I would like to hear your response to this. Are you aware that many if not most women who have had an abortion suffer lasting effects for years afterwords? (m, but just a quick story) - wildrose 10/18/2008 22:42:30 CDT (1) Jen- - zookeeper 10/19/2008 00:49:24 CDT (2) And making all of those things illegal doesn't deter them at all either. (nt) - zookeeper 10/19/2008 01:03:44 CDT (0) I've known several women who have taken that risk . . . (m) - wildrose 10/19/2008 14:41:35 CDT (0) Can you back this up? Because I have seen this said before on this board, but I have never been able to come up with proof. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 07:07:30 CDT (4) And he doesn't support abortion, he supports the freedom the SCOTUS said woman had to make the choice. He wants to reduce the number of abortions and unwanted pregnancies. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 07:09:28 CDT (2) And that would be why he voted against the Infants Born Alive act THREE times? Sorry. Anyone who says it's acceptable to let an infant die all alone in a cold, dirty utility room just doesn't pass in my book. (nt) - wildrose 10/17/2008 09:11:12 CDT (2) Here's a video if you would like proof . . . . (m/li) (nt) - wildrose 10/17/2008 09:17:12 CDT (0) It's not. And I don't understand this particular issue, why this bill was being presented, because there already WAS an active law on the books prohibiting this and what about they hypocratic oathe? (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 09:31:26 CDT (1) Regardless of the law on the books, it WAS happening. I don't understand how any doctor can perform any abortion and still abide by the hypocratic oath. (nt) - wildrose 10/17/2008 18:44:01 CDT (0) Of course he "supports abortion." He's pro-choice. Radically so, if his desired FIRST ACT would be to sign the "Freedom of Choice Act." I guess enough babies aren't being killed in the womb for him. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 09:42:45 CDT (2) No, you're making associations. All dogs have 4 legs. This animal has 4 legs, it must be a dog. You can be pro-choice, and respect someone else's right to choose and still not personally agree with abortion. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 09:58:36 CDT (1) You can even sign laws to expand it (even if you do not personally agree with it.) (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 10:26:46 CDT (1) My coffee hasn't kicked in: are you saying the FOCA would expand the freedom to choose?? (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 10:29:34 CDT (0) Just like I respect your right to own a gun, but would never do so myself. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 09:59:43 CDT (3) Hitler never personally killed a Jew either. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 10:27:34 CDT (1) See right there. People make statements like that and it discredits the debator. Here I thought we were having an intelligent discussion. (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 10:36:25 CDT (1) People can't support evil and claim they are not "actively" participating in it and come out with clean hands. That was a great example. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 10:50:09 CDT (1) Who's supporting evil? I'm talking about people supporting Constitutional rights. (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 12:58:06 CDT (1) Well, it was "legal" to kill Jews in Germany, too. Evil is evil, plain and simple. You can't say, "I am opposed to killing Jews, but I will sign a bill giving YOU a right to do it." Same thing. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 13:16:07 CDT (1) I guess there's the difference in the two sides. We didn't sign a bill giving that right to women. The SC said that right was covered under the Constitutional right to privacy. (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 13:57:39 CDT (2) Once our Constitution said it was legal to have slaves, too. We need to fix this grave error like we did that one. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 14:31:40 CDT (1) How do you propose they reword the right to privacy? (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 17:24:26 CDT (1) How about this? "You have the right to privacy, as long as you are not killing another human being in the process." (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 17:38:08 CDT (1) Well, I was being serious and hoping you would have been too. You homeschool, right? Well, the same Due Process law that affords you that right affords the right to choice. So if you wish to change the privacy right, the Due Process we all have, then you change many many things. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 00:12:25 CDT (1) I'm very serious. Yes, I homeschool, but I don't kill anyone in the process. Who said I am against due process? I would like to help make abortion illegal. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/18/2008 08:28:39 CDT (1) The Roe v Wade decision was made based upon the Due Process clause. Wiki it- it's very fascinating. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 14:54:51 CDT (1) Let's say that the Constitution somehow really does guarantee the right to abortion. Why should a bad law be respected?... - mirkyunlog 10/18/2008 21:10:59 CDT (1) So what would you do? If it's not you having the abortion, what act would you take to disobey that law? The law is not telling you that you have to have one, so how would you not be obeying it? (nt) - zookeeper 10/18/2008 23:52:39 CDT (1) I would not say "Oh, well, the Constitution says it's okay, and after all, it's only one of so many other issues so I'll vote for Obama"... - mirkyunlog 10/19/2008 16:59:55 CDT (0) wow - privacy is one thing - ending the life of another is something quite different - she has the right to privacy - and she has a choice - but that "choice" ends when another becomes involved. You can't kill your neighbor in the privacy of your own home simply because you don't want them to live there any longer - you can't kill your newborn because they're an inconvenience - not sure who decided that if we just convince people that they're not really "babies" but "tissue" it would be ok to just kill them - but I guess their plan worked cause that seems to be the prevailing thought - what do these people think when they see an ultrasound? (nt) - nancys6kids1dog 10/18/2008 11:53:28 CDT (1) By right to privacy here, they meant the gov't can't interfere in personal choices. Again, I'm only arguing what the actual decision is and the history of it. - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 14:53:15 CDT (0) In these economic times, it is helpful to own a gun to hunt for food...I fail to see needing a semi-automatic to do that unless the deer get faster - debjzunlogged 10/17/2008 15:47:14 CDT (1) Curious why you don't see this in the other candidate? - zookeeper 10/17/2008 17:23:14 CDT (2) On a lighter note, doesn't it seem like McCain likes to have pretty women around him? (nt) - debjzunlogged 10/17/2008 22:00:57 CDT (1) Can you think of a man who doesn't? LOL (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 23:34:53 CDT (0) His RECORD is pro-life. (Matters more than words.) (nt) - YankeeMom 10/18/2008 08:29:58 CDT (0) Just owning a gun doesn't hurt anybody. I posted above but will ask this here also, do you have any idea what an abortion procedure does? (m) - wildrose 10/17/2008 18:41:23 CDT (1) True. You have to use it. Just like leaving the choice out there for women - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 23:46:09 CDT (2) Please see my above post re: protecting women . . . (m) - wildrose 10/18/2008 07:39:25 CDT (0) They said the same thing about slavery. It took a few hundred years, but eventually righteousness won. (And we are winning the abortion battle.) (nt) - YankeeMom 10/18/2008 08:32:05 CDT (1) I am not going off of words. I'm going off of his voting record, which is here. - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 09:40:02 CDT (1) I've never heard of anyone using aborted fetuses for stem cell research . . . - YankeeMom 10/18/2008 11:32:14 CDT (1) They also use "extra" embryos from fertility procedures. He voted for it. In the voting record, in the link I posted. You can check it out. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 14:14:41 CDT (1) That's not the same as using aborted fetuses. (nt) - YankeeMom 10/18/2008 15:28:16 CDT (1) I said they "also" use. Read his vote record. I gave you the link. They describe each bill. (nt) - zookeeper 10/18/2008 23:49:24 CDT (0) Have you read the Freedom Of Choice Act? NARAL has it on their website. (nt) - live4truth13 10/17/2008 08:49:33 CDT (1) Thank you- this is what I was looking for. Off to read it because I know this isn't just a "lets get more abortions" bill. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 09:40:26 CDT (1) I read it- - zoounlogged 10/17/2008 10:08:42 CDT (0) He not only said that, he pretty clearly stated that agreement with his view on abortion rights will be required in his selection of nominees to the Supreme Court. Quotes and links included here. - Kanga 10/17/2008 09:25:20 CDT (0) I've posted this link before (link) (nt) - YankeeMom 10/17/2008 09:38:52 CDT (0) Straight from Obama's mouth - the explanation why he opposed the Infants Born Alive Act . . . (m) - wildrose 10/17/2008 20:15:30 CDT (0) I really miss our Archbishop (Burke). - debjzunlogged 10/17/2008 14:57:33 CDT (0) Since the OP was addressing Catholics, I will respond with a quote from - debjzunlogged 10/17/2008 15:14:38 CDT (1) Except the death penalty of course- then the life has less value. And by these guidelines, someone having a DNR is a gravious moral confliction. (nt) - zookeeper 10/17/2008 17:13:08 CDT (1) Catholics, not republicans, have fought against the death penalty repeatedly... - debjzunlogged 10/17/2008 21:55:59 CDT (2) Well said. Very well said. (nt) - wildrose 10/17/2008 22:54:50 CDT (0) My point was that Catholic Catechism does not denounce lethal punishment. Its one of our double standards. (nt) - zoounlogged 10/18/2008 15:05:19 CDT (2) It's not a double standard. The death penalty is applied to someone presumed to be *guilty* of some kind of crime. A baby is guilty of nothing... - mirkyunlog 10/18/2008 19:52:16 CDT (1) Ok- simple question: Is all life sacred or not? (nt) - zookeeper 10/18/2008 23:54:42 CDT (2) Absolutely. From conception to natural death. (nt) - wildrose 10/19/2008 14:01:42 CDT (0) Innocent human life is sacred from conception to natural death. (nt) - mirkyunlog 10/19/2008 17:02:13 CDT (1) Does God value a "guilty" human life less then if it's not sacred? (nt) - zoounlogged 10/19/2008 19:23:33 CDT (0) MJ beat me to it but I will add . . .

The SS was there only for intimidation (nt) - leenieunlog 10/16/2008 09:52:53 CDT (1) Exactly. I'll bet those Secret Service guys were giddy over having something to do.

I can't stand to watch them and prefer to hear the highlights later. (nt) - carlymac 10/15/2008 21:35:08 CDT (0) I didn't see fireworks, but I did finally pick up a pulse! It was actually two sided this time. (nt) - zookeeper 10/15/2008 22:02:43 CDT (0) When talking about the budget, one mentioned a scalpel, the other mentioned a hatchet. Dh said, "With this economy it's time for a chainsaw!" (nt) - leenieunlog 10/16/2008 08:11:23 CDT (1) Atomic bomb maybe.

I heard someone on CNN make that very same comment this morning. (nt) - carlymac 10/15/2008 12:06:30 CDT (0) OK, this is pretty bad . . . - YankeeMom 10/15/2008 12:43:21 CDT (5) Oh. My.

They estimate that there are 5000-8000 of them in various Ku Klux Klan groups. We don't hear that argument much outside of the Detroit city limits, Stacey. (nt) - Nosewiper 10/15/2008 22:37:04 CDT (1) Well, we're seeing it here in the South. Additonally, it's a nationwide generational and cultural issue. My FIL, who is so stereotypical NJ Italian, will never vote for a black man. My grandmother still fears black people, so neither will she. It's not just racial supremicists.

(nt) - YankeeMom 10/16/2008 08:45:02 CDT (0) Really, are we surprised? Jay Leno does this bit all the time- people sometimes can't even name our current President, let alone tell you his political stance. Sadly, I think this type of thing is why other countries view us as "stupid Americans". (nt) - zookeeper 10/16/2008 08:57:16 CDT (1) I don't think people of ANY nation really understand politics of their country. - carlymac 10/16/2008 09:55:10 CDT (1) Well, I almost agreed with you. I have seen no indication that Bush regrets the war in Iraq (or the removal of Saddam.) I doubt the people (in general) do either. Most people are happy to be rid of a brutal dictator.

I understand the warmth thing not the fashion. (nt) - Ranae 10/14/2008 15:43:51 CDT (0) Personally, I don't care what they wear...my question is why the heck would they want to?! Pantyhose is one of the worst inventions ever! SO uncomfortable and annoying...I haven't worn them in years, except for support hose during pregnancy, and that about killed me. (nt) - blairzoo-unlog 10/14/2008 18:22:48 CDT (2) I'm here. I haven't worn them in years as they make my skin crawl - That's bad enough but they also feel colder on than without. Shivers!!!!

Women hate the things so bad and finally feel they don't have to wear them, that sales are down. For the most part I think this is a marketing thing. (nt) - gelsum 10/15/2008 09:27:35 CDT (0) 12.

LOL...We sometimes call it fluffing! (nt) - leenieseven 10/13/2008 11:11:32 CDT (1) It's a "fluff" if it's pure air. If you get that suspicious "bubbly" sound, "flurf" seems more appropriate. Though I had to de-code "Dear Old Dad" and was still working on "flurf" being something stomach-related. Eew...definitely time to take the dog/daughter/dad outside and leave them there for a piece! (nt) - Nosewiper 10/13/2008 12:11:55 CDT (1) You got it. If it's particularly toxic it's a flurf!
