They have two pro-abortion parties out of two, and we have three pro-abortion parties out of three. The next Tory Leader voted to keep the present limit and to abolish fatherhood. Nobody minded.

Bush's appointments to that body have so far all been excellent, and if McCain wins in November then the Bush tendency to appoint so-called "strict constructionists" will probably continue. (The alternative possibility, that Obama will win and just carry on appointing pro-abortionists, is just too depressing.)<BR/><BR/>People in this country often claim that abortion here is not a "political" issue "like it is in America" - normally indicating only how little they know not just of America but of English politics as well.Oliver McCarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760729159288697698noreply@blogger.com
