Tonight's VP debate

What are you smoking tonight, FD? Win, Palin. No doubt about it.

Was anyone else offended when Palin mentioned Biden's deceased wife to make one of her points? I thought it was in horribly bad taste.

You mentioned education and I'm glad you did. I know education you are passionate about with your wife being a teacher for 30 years, and god bless her. Her reward is in heaven, right?

Only in your mind!

Conservative judges are good, so what's the issue with that? Do you really think anyone would get rid of Roe v. wade? really?

We lament that judges have denied the people their right to set abortion policies in the states

We oppose using public revenues to promote or perform abortion [..]. We support the appointment of judges who respect traditional family values and the sanctity and dignity of innocent human life.

We have made progress. The Supreme Court has upheld prohibitions against the barbaric practice of partial-birth abortion

At its core, abortion is a fundamental assault on the sanctity of innocent human life.

the unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed. We affirm our support for a Human Life Amendment to the Constitution and to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protection applies to unborn children. [..] We are resolute regarding the reversal of Roe v. Wade.

We affirm our support for the appointment and election of judges at all levels of the judiciary who respect traditional family values and the sanctity of innocent human life. We insist that the U.S. Department of Justice needs to prosecute hospitals or abortion clinics for committing induced labor (live birth) abortion. [..]

Until our final goal of total Constitutional rights for the unborn child is achieved, we beseech the Texas Legislature in consideration of our state’s rights, to enact laws that restrict and regulate abortion

Chanting "DRILL, BABY, DRILL!" now is like chanting "TYPEWRITERS, BABY, TYPEWRITERS" at the start of the computer era" - Congressman John Hall

- We ask the Legislature to provide Texans opportunity to purchase "Choose Life" license plates.

- We call on the Legislature to require parental consent for any form of medical care to minors. [..] Further, we encourage the Congress to remove confidentiality mandates for minors from family planning service programs operating under Title X of the Public Health Services Act and Medicaid.

- [..] We commend the Texas Legislature for the passage of the Woman’s Right to Know Act, a law requiring abortion providers, prior to an abortion, to provide women full knowledge of the physical and psychological risks of abortion, the characteristics of the unborn child, and abortion alternatives. [..]

" We oppose sale and use of the dangerous “Morning After Pill.”

- We support legislation that requires doctors, at first opportunity, to provide to a woman who is pregnant, information about the nervous system development of her unborn child and to provide pain relief for her unborn if she orders an abortion.

- We propose legislation that entitles hospitals to refuse to perform abortions because government has no moral authority to require such an abortion.

I say McCain wins that round, just because Palin was not a complete failure.

With expectations so low, she just needed to speak english, and mostly... she did.

I could not get that link to work, butterflynet. I am curious about the results.

Palin will mostly skim over with her answers without going into much detail, because she just doesn't know as much as Biden.
