yugga !!




Huckabee would criminalize abortion and punish doctors.

Also during his Meet The Press appearance today, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee said that as President he would seek to “find some way to sanction” doctors “who took money to provide abortions to women if he succeeded in outlawing the procedure.” “I don’t know that you’d put him in prison,” added Huckabee. He said that he would “not support penalizing women who sought abortions even if they were outlawed” because he considers a woman who seeks an abortion to be “a victim, not a criminal.”

UPDATE: A recent study by the Guttmacher Institute and the World Health Organization found that criminalization is ineffective in lowering abortions, but the procedure is most “dangerous in countries where it was outlawed and performed clandestinely.”

2. Biden would only do that for the third-term, right?

3. Did Biden vote for sanctions against PBA? n/t

5. Joe Biden supports Roe v Wade. Period.

Restrictions on abortion in the third term were part of that decision, and have been further tightened as more conservatives were appointed to the courts.

4. Do you even know in which states abortion is legal during the third term?

7. But that was then there was a protection for women's health, which is not the case today.

Not after the Supreme Court's decision. So what is any candidate's position today, right now!

8. Here is the vote concerning PBA: Clinton NO, Biden, YES, Edwards, not important to vote.
