Headscarf and other headdress ban in all government schools and offices and drivers license photos would make a lot of sense and go a long way towards liberating the iron fisted control that the crazed mullahs have over muslim women. This is not a minor issue IMO.
Well stated and agreed.
This argument was used ad nauseum even when I was in college in the late 70's early 80's. Our college group, and as well the local community pro-life organization at the time, did all we could to dispel that lie.
Your list is excellent. Please add me to your ping list.
You idea of liberation is Orwellian.
Many women and MEN want to wear their religion headdress and you are acting like a true Communist by wanting to ban it. I am no fan of the Islamic religion but people have the right to choose to express their religion. I can redirect you to Michael Newdow and his religion hating friend if you like?
You=Your
I know countless very religious people including ministers, and NONE of them wear head wrappings. These head getups are not religous, they are political symbols of power and control. I am sure the Almighty could care less about such nonsense.
Ever saw the Pope? Ever met an Orthodox Jew?
ARe they religious nuts and oppressing women?
Both Bush's wife and mother are pro choice, they probably realize that criminalizing the whole thing would never work.
Interesting. Seems the President has not been too successful in 'changing hearts and minds'. However, he has been quite successful to persuade whenever he really wants something. Have pro-lifers been bamboozled, stay tuned.
There's nothing wrong with the above, cp. The title of this article, however, takes it too far, and I do think mischaracterizes the Presidents position.
***Yeah I saw that post. I printed to look over it in more depth. It looks impressive until one begins to get a felling of deja vu all over again. ***
***There are a few good things but it reads like a scare tactic by Planned Parenthood designed to drum up donations.***
Hmmmm...my point was not the number of items, but the content. A few good things? Huh?
A pro-lifer in charge of the nation's health.
No US tax dollars for foreign abortions, or the promotion of abortion.
None of your tax dollars pay for federal employees' birth control.
A promoter of abstinence becomes the chief advisor on AIDS.
Taking a teen to get an out of state abortion is now a federal crime.
Thompson fights the condom approach to AIDS prevention.
Partial Birth Abortion Ban.
Pro-lifer at refugee post.
UNFPA gets no US money for three years.
Embryo adoption promoted.
CEDAW is rejected.
Another pro-life/pro-abstinence AIDS advisor.
Hospitals will not be forced to give abortions.
WHO pro-abortion program gets no US tax dollars.
Pro-condom myths and pro-abortion breast cancer lies go off
the HHS website.
Embryo is considered a human by US government scientitsts.
Title X overseen by abstinence-promoter.
US ditches support for pro-abortion treaty.
Multiple pro-lifers (and specifically, anti-RU486) appointed to FDA.
No more abortions at our military facilities.
Cairo pro-abortion language is not endorsed by US.
And that's just in the Family Planning section.
Certainly, only a pro-abort would allow such things on his watch, right? Get a grip.
Prayer *is* "works".
Bush Signs Title X Funding Increase for 2005
Planned Parenthood's Abortion Funding Increased
President George W. Bush and the Republican-majority Congress Title X is one of two major federal government funding sources for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the nation's largest chain of abortion centers (murdering over 244,000 unborn human beings per year by surgical abortion alone).
Increased Title X to record $288.3 million in FY 2005 on 12/8/04
Title X appropriation for FY 2005 (Oct. 2004 to Sept. 2005) was signed into law as part of H.R. 4818 (see bill at http://thomas.loc.gov), the mammoth appropriations bill which contained the huge outlays for the (unconstitutional) Department of Health and Human Services.
Republican-majority U.S. House approved H.R. 4818 by a vote of 344 to 51, on November 20, 2004 (Roll Call Number: 542). [Republicans 183 Yea, 27 Nay; Democrats 160 Yea, 24 Nay; 1 Independent Yea]
Republican-majority U.S. Senate approved H.R. 4818 by a vote of 65 to 30, on November 20, 2004 (Record Vote Number: 215) [Republicans 42 Yea, 6 Nay; Democrats 23 Yea, 23 Nay; 1 Independent Nay]
Republican President signed H.R. 4818 into law, authorizing the highest ever spending level for Title X in the history of the program, on December 8, 2004. It became Public Law No. 108-447.
This FY 2005 Bush administration Title X funding level of $288 million (an estimated $50-$60 million of which will be paid to Planned Parenthood Federation of America, for population control), exceeds by over $30 million, the highest Title X level during the Clinton administration, in FY 2001, of $254 million!
______________________________________________ Note:
The Title X program includes funding for contraceptive birth control; birth control that causes chemical abortions; and birth control for unmarried adolescents, even if their parents object to the federal government giving their children hormonal drugs and devices with which to fornicate.
Information on Title X: http://opa.osophs.dhhs.gov/titlex/ofp.html
The Title X program is also one of the principal federal government funding mechanisms for Planned Parenthood Federation of America (founded by Margaret Sanger), the nation's largest chain of child-murder-by-abortion centers.

Heavenly Father - Help us to trust in Thee. Help Thou mine unbelief.
Do you seriously believe there are 34 pro-life Senators who would vote "nay" on Articles of Impeachment?
I don't think there are 15.
Their loyalty to process liberalism overlying moral relativism may well be stronger.
OK We'll never know. He should do it because it's the right thing to do.
More to the point, What say you about:

I say that the Culture of Death still repels most Americans, but that the assumptions which give rise to the Culture of Death are overwhelmingly popular.
What's a poor politician to do?
