How do we all feel about the abortion answer?
Edited on Fri Oct-08-04 09:28 PM by gauguin57
I liked it. And I think it was a perfectly clear, and I think Bush is being a giantic snotface for saying "I have to decipher that (Kerry's answer)." A-hole!

4. Of course he has to decipher it
With his limited intelligence.

His response was mostly crap anyway.

14. Very tough question. Kerry handled it better than anyone could.
Plus, he got religion in nicely.

Burn in hell, bush.

16. "You can run but you can't hide?"
Kerry just EXPLAINED why he voted the way he did on late-term abortion ... and Bush turns around and says "I don't understand ... you can run but you can't hide." Who's hiding? Certainly not Kerry!!!

17. I liked it too
But I'm pro-choice, so...I can see how it wouldn't appeal to a hard core lifer who wants no money used for abortion. Odd that no pro-lifer has ever objected to tax money used for war...

I thought the follow-up was excellent, though, Kerry showing the complexity of the issue and Bush ignoring it.

19. Good answer BUT,
Edited on Fri Oct-08-04 09:39 PM by SWPAdem
He should have said that NO tax dollars are used for abortions. I am 100% sure that is true for federal monies....need to research whether any state medicaid funds are available for that use.


On edit: Here's the research....
Notes: The federal Hyde Amendent, passed in 1977, bans state use of federal Medcaid dollars to pay for abortions unless the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, or the abortion is "necessary to save the life of the woman." States can use their own funds to cover other medically necessary abortions - usually defined by states as those to protect the physical or mental health of the woman - for Medicaid recipients. States that fund abortions beyond the federal requirement are shown here.
