7. News site? Not hardly
Drudge is a fanatic who posts rumours as fact. So what if he scoops your local paper? How many times has he been completely full of shit.

DrudgeReport.com is really just an over-rated, very well funded blog.

8. Seriously now, what the fuck are you talking about?
Is that like the "news" about Hillary Clinton's indictment? The "news" about Sidney Blumenthal beating his wife? The "news" about Sen. Kerry's affair with an intern?

Holy jeebus.

6. Let the Repugs overreach...they can't resist the tempation
Let them come out with their neocon religious reichist agenda confidently and smugly. Let's let them walk right into the trap.

We'll cut them off in 2006 and 2008.

18. Illegal abortions can lead to sterility, but that doesn't make their point
If women have illegal abortions by unqualified practioners, they can end up sterile, and having a hysterectomy at a young age due to damage done by dirty equipment and poor surgical technique.

If a woman has an abortion in a clean, licensed clinic run by doctors and nurses, unless she has some risky health issue, she should recover the same way one recovers from a routine D&C for conditions like fibroids.
