49. Kristof is a fool and Clinton is a pandering, patronizing phony.
<snip>Mrs. Clinton took a hugely important step in January when she sought common ground and described abortion as a "sad, even tragic choice to many, many women."<snip>

I hate to be so blunt, but let's be honest here. For some women it's a relief. Do we want to go down this path? Is this the "debate" she wants to start? So all she has accomplished by her statement is to polarize and politicize this issue even further. And she seems to have forgotten a very basic concept. The body does not control the woman; it is the woman who controls her body.

BTW, thank you Saracat, for putting my thoughts into words so much more eloquently than I could have.
