I thought pro-choicers were all about privacy*?
Unless the woman is a conservative on her way to the White House?
The Politico’s John Martin writes:
S.C. Dem chair: Palin primary qualification is she hasn’t had an abortion
South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler sharply attacked Sarah Palin today, saying John McCain had chosen a running mate “whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”
Palin is an opponent of abortion rights and gave birth to her fifth child, Trig, earlier this year after finding out during her pregnancy that the baby had Down syndrome.
Fowler told my colleague Alex Burns in an interview that the selection of an opponent of abortion rights would not boost McCain among many women.
Hey, for liberal women, I thought not having an abortion is a helluva achievement.
You’re all class, Ms. Fowler. You have liberal hypocrisy* mastered. What the hell have YOU accomplished in YOUR life, Ms. Fowler? Besides being a party partisan hack.
As for the biased Jonathan Martin, below is my e-mail to him:
Dear Mr. Martin,
I was somewhat amused to read your assertion that “Palin is an opponent of abortion rights…”
Palin views human life as precious and worthy of defense at all its stages. She understands what science has confirmed decades ago: the meeting of sperm and egg forms 46 chromosomes, the genetic blueprint for human life. On the other hand, you choose to ignore a basic principle of embryology and resort to word play.
For the sake of your already disgraced profession, at least pretend to have some objectivity.
Disappointed,
____________
I won’t hold my breath. Much like other members of his profession, Jonathan Martin merely uses his keyboard to make petty political points as if his readers are unable to smell the manure he sows across the internet.
Shame on Martin and those who bastardize journalism.
UPDATE: Fowler apologizes for abortion remark
South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Carol Fowler, facing criticism for her remark to Politico’s Alex Burns about Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, issues an apology:
“I personally admire and respect the difficult choices that women make everyday [unless that decision permits the unborn to live -- Ed.] , and I apologize to anyone who finds my comment offensive [Wow, what a sincere apology. Your comment was outrageous, you infanticide supporting goon. -- Ed.]. I clumsily was making a point ['clumsy' is damn right. -- Ed.] about people in South Carolina who may vote based on a single issue. Whether it’s the environment, the economy, the war or a woman’s right to choose [Euphemism alert. 'Right to choose' what? Coward. -- Ed.] , there are people who will cast their vote based on a single issue. That was the only point I was attempting to make.”
She even can’t apologize well. Carol Fowler, please quit. You’re actually harming your own party, you’re ineffective and, as you made clear, clumsy.
