<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Mr. London,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Should I conclude from your sentence " A first trimester
fetus is not a child." that a baby in the second trimester is? Planned
Parenthood routinely performs abortions in the sixth month of pregnancy making
the phrase you took such exception to completely correct even by your
own standards. Not "inaccurate." Not "vicious slander." Please see:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><A
href="http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn11222-worlds-most-premature-baby-set-to-leave-hospital.html">http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn11222-worlds-most-premature-baby-set-to-leave-hospital.html</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Don't even begin to try and tell me a fetus at 6 months
isn't a child.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Unfortunately, my use of the admittedly inflammatory
phrase "killing of children" has caused my critics to overlook the point.
For this I am at fault and I'll try again. To take Ms. Palin's deeply held
moral position in favor of life and step all over it by making donations to an
organization that regularly ends it in her name is hardly ethical or laudatory
behavior. Would it be funny or productive to sign James Brady up for NRA
memberships? If you feel you must support abortion by contributing to
Planned Parenthood, that's one thing. (an unfortunate thing, in my opinion)
Spitting in a woman's face for an honestly held moral position is
another. As was said previously, tasteless, tawdry, and lacking in
ethics.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>A question for you, if I may? Reasonable people can and do
disagree on when life begins. In what way was my "ranting"
"irrational?" Do you truly think that people who believe that life begins at
conception are out of their minds or was the remark simply
"venomous."</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>G. Crabtree:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I have enjoyed your straightforward conservative
commentary on V2020. You have provided a realistic and honest
counterpoint.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>However, I have noticed recently that you have also
adopted many of the venomous and irrational rantings too common with the
right.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>A great example is your use of the phrase "killing of
children" in a description of Planned Parenthood. Even you must realize
that is not only inaccurate but vicious slander.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Planned Parenthood does offer abortion as an option in
pregnancy counseling, but really they focus on family planning and
testing for sexually transmitted diseases (as in prevention). A first
trimester fetus is not a child. And a woman's decision in the face or
rape, incest, or just poverty, should not be your concern. A true
conservative would not want to give the government that kind of
power.</FONT></DIV>
