Ever met Sarah Palin on a picket line?

She will do whatever she can to keep you from having an abortion, even if you are raped. [See the article here.]

I do not encourage abortion. I cannot imagine it being a happy choice to make. I consider it a tragic and very personal choice in which I have no right to interfere. And I believe that sometimes it is the right thing to do.

I strongly champion sex education and access to contraceptive methods. Those who would keep people ignorant of their own bodies and deny them the means of contraception while also denouncing abortion are, to my thinking, nothing less than cruel and utterly hypocritical. [Are you listening, Ratso?] Population growth is one of the worst threats to our planet and the future of our descendants. I have no patience with the barefoot, pregnant, and chained to the stove school of piggery.

Getting back on topic, I would suggest that Sarah Palin is not in synch with 2/3 of the American citizenry. It is up to that 2/3 to make certain she and her equally noxious running-mate are NOT elected.

Remember, the Supreme Court of the next couple of decades is at stake.

So, for that matter, is American democracy.
