Gee - guess that was a slap in the face to me. I forgot that everyone on this board knew me and knows what race, creed, sexual orientation, religion, etc. that I subscribe to...I am taking this statement to mean that you assume I have *NEVER* been a *VICTIM* of discrimination. If so, you are wrong. I face discrimination every single day but not in the way most people would think about. If this was not your intended point, then please clarify.
Little 32,
but would then presume to tell the woman of the nation what they can and can not do with their own bodies
I said I would not go into this one, but I fail to see how a full-term baby (not cell...not fetus...but a baby) coming out of a woman's birth canal while a doctor is holding its head and subsequently sucking its brain out thereby killing it
during birth can be classified as a woman's body and right to choose. This is
my opinion.
Gore is about giving insurance to the 44 million children in this nation that do not have insurance. Gore is about offering everyone a fair shake at an excellent education, not just the privileged and the one in twenty who would qualify for Bush's proposed vouchers
Gore is about what ever way the wind happens to be blowing. Jim Leher in the 2nd debate looked right at him and asked him if the environment was
STILL his #1 priority and he said YES...then during his closing remarks, the first thing he said was
CHILDREN were his #1 priority. ???
I think his #1 priority has been making soft core porn movies on national tv with his wife after the debates and after the democratic convention...I mean we all know that Bill and Hilary will be splitting soon and that the PR people have told Al & Tipper to lay it on thick...but come on! I don't subscribe to the Playboy channel for a reason. (Just trying to throw a little humor in)
LXAAlum,
If you're trying to make an argument about issues, issues are too personal to most Americans to allow someone else opinion change theirs.
As usual - right on the money.

Well I'd love to stay and argue, but the series is on and I need to catch up so I'll be ready at the water cooler tomorrow.
