An Irritated Pro-Choicer's Concerns
Topic: Last Night’s 3rd, and Final, Presidential Debate
Issue: McCain’s Answer to a Question
The Question: Would you ever appoint a justice to the Supreme Court that had different views than you do on abortion? -Scheiffer
The Answer: (Paraphrased) I would never apply a “litmus test” to any appointees I am considering. That is unethical. I would instead choose/vet them based on their qualifications and merit….someone who was qualified to be a Justice wouldn’t be Pro-Choice anyways.
Are you SERIOUS? I don’t care if you’re Pro-Life or Pro-Choice. This ridiculously stereotypical comment should bother people on both sides of the issue. Does McCain honestly believe that an abortion proponent could never be qualified to serve in the Supreme Court?
I’m sorry. I’d rather have “that one” who “pals around with domestic terrorists” as my President, than an old, closed-minded, insult-hurling geezer.
