Bush Sets Target for Transition In Iraq

Curious that they seem to have decided finally on an "end date," right when we appear to be gearing up for action against Iran. Curious.

There's a pretty significant point that Rounds's argument rests on: that unborn children are the most vulnerable members of our society.

I would have to say that that is completely untrue. First of all, they're pretty nice and safe in those wombs there, probably more so than they'll ever be for the rest of their lives. The only real threat is the woman who wants an abortion, and chances are she wants it because the child won't be very well off once it comes out of the womb. Thereby contributing to that part of the population that is, actually, vulnerable and threatened.

Then again, I guess it's asking too much to expect these people to use logic in their legislation.
