obama JUST blamed Speculators..

John Kerry is a member of the Roman Catholic church. So does that mean he ipso facto supports the Church's anti-abortion doctrine as a Legislator? Clearly not.

She's a pro-life politician. She campaigns as a right to lifer and she obviously lives as a right to lifer. None of that though means that she's a legislative activist on behalf of right to life initiatives. There's only one relevant question, "If you were President would you provide a litmus test to prospective Federal judicial nominees as to their views on abortion"? I presume SHE WOULD. So would Ron Paul though. So if Ron Paul is the Libertarian litmus test we're back to the discussion of how are Palin's views on reproductive rights different or more extreme than Paul's? And my answer is: NO ONE's views are more extreme that Pauls.

Quote from BlindLemonBoosh:

"The problem is that FFL doesn't just oppose abortion. FFL wants abortion to be illegal. All abortions, period, including those for rape, incest, health, major fetal defects and, although Foster resisted admitting this, even some abortions most doctors would say were necessary to save the woman's life. (Although FFL is not a Catholic organization, its rejection of therapeutic abortion follows Catholic doctrine.) FFL wants doctors who perform abortions to be punished, possibly with prison terms."

Supporting evidence for above statement:
FFL Amicus Brief for Bray v. Alexandria Women's Health Clinic

"The early feminists defied many social conventions, but saw abortion, which they consistently referred to by terms such as "child-murder," as the result of unequal treatment of women, not a solution to that problem. They supported laws restricting abortion, as well as vigorous efforts against what they considered to be its root causes. "

"The Early Feminist Opposition to Abortion Included Support for Legal Restrictions Upon Abortion, and Enforcement of Such Restrictions."

"Senator Duke noted during floor debate on the Ku Klux Klan Act that procured abortion was itself an illegal act. Thus, to conspire privately to peaceably block the doors to an abortion clinic no more deprives women of the essential rights of national citizenship to equally participate in the political or judicial process, than a sit-in at a segregated lunch counter deprives potential restaurant patrons of their citizenship rights."

"Simply put, the respondents here support the act of abortion, and its legalization. The petitioners oppose the act of abortion"

The position of Feminists for Life on 'abortion legalities' is quite clear. Sarah Palin is a member of FFL.

More evidence:
"Palin is anti-choice and is a member of an “anti-abortion group called Feminists for Life.” In 2002, when she was running for lieutenant governor, “Palin sent an e-mail to the anti-abortion Alaska Right to Life Board saying she was as ‘pro-life as any candidate can be’ and has ‘adamantly supported our cause since I first understood, as a child, the atrocity of abortion.’”"

I hope he does as well.

But in this day and age, when everybody specialize in different fields, nobody knows everything.

In the end, it's not whether he know economic terms that matters. What matters is whether he's able to learn what it means in a short period of time when taught and briefed by experts.

This also goes back to the importance of making the smart decisions in surrounding himself with brilliant experts from the get to.


It's the same idea when anybody applies for a job they have no exact experience of.
1. Do you have the relative experience?
2. More importantly, do you have the ability to learn on the job, FAST. This is where the combination of IQ and logical reasoning abilities really kicks in.




What did Obama do when he knows he lacks in forgein policy experience? He hired Biden.

What did McCain do when he knows he lacks in economic knowledge? He hired Palin.

Freud would say you have a subconscious child molestation wish. In other words, you are a pervert.

I love how all the liberals whine about Sarah Palin's experience. The funny thing is that she has more experience than Obama who is (news flash) running for president.

And i am sorry to let you in on this little piece of info ERTW but what you describe as surrounding yourself with experts sounds a lot like on the job training you idiot. At least try and defend your condidate better than that.

Obama lacks in all areas of experience. And I doubt if Palin will be McCain's economc advisor. Has Biden stole any speeches lately?

Biden voted for the Iraq war and opposed the surge. In other words his "experience" is a big oh fer two.........
