skycop 0 #26 September 29, 2008 The right seems to be getting increasingly embarrassed about Palin. I guess you just wish she'd go away. Quote I have some doubts (as I do with EVERY candidate). We'll see how she does this week against Joe Biden. I have a sinking feeling she will be debating the female moderator (can't remember her name) as much as Biden. Overall she's done pretty well, considering the outright distain shown by two out of three of her media interviewers. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Oh, admit it, Mike. If this were about Obama you'd be hyperventilating over the "biased liberal media's refusal to investigate these crimes against women by Obama." The whole thing is a non-issue.

"We support a human life amendment to the Constitution, and we endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children." NO exceptions for rape and incest. *yawn* Let me know when the modification to the amendment goes to the voters and I'll worry about it. Until then, why don't you ask the good Senator why his committee killed a bill to provide care to babies that survive an abortion attempt?Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Oh, admit it, Mike. If this were about Obama you'd be hyperventilating over the "biased liberal media's refusal to investigate these crimes against women by Obama." The whole thing is a non-issue. The right wing's ever more shrill and panicked denials that she had NO connection - NONE WHATSOEVER - with the issue is just keeping it in the spotlight.

I don't think he's any more to blame than she is. linz Apperently NC is in violation of federal law. Nationally, victims' advocates have for years reported scattered instances of rape victims being required to pay for their forensic tests, says Ilse Knecht of the National Center for Victims of Crime in Washington. Those complaints have subsided somewhat after Congress in 2005 passed a law requiring states to provide rape exams free of charge or reimburse victims for the costs, says Knecht, whose group supported the provision. "The reason we passed the legislation was that we saw it was prevalent enough to be a pretty considerable problem," Knecht says. "There are no other victims of crime that end up being billed for evidence collection." The Senate version of the legislation that included the rape-exam provision was sponsored by Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, the Democratic vice presidential nominee. Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama was one of 58 co-sponsors; Republican presidential nominee John McCain was not....
