Prepping for 2008, Spineless Hillary panders to the Religious Right
Exhibit A - Abortion(from drudge)
"Proposing new political language about abortion rights for an increasingly skittish Democratic Party, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that friends and foes on the issue should come together on "common ground" to reduce the number of "unwanted pregnancies" and ultimately abortions, which she called a "sad, even tragic choice to many, many women."
Clinton, in a speech to about 1,000 abortion rights supporters at the state Capitol, firmly restated her support for Roe v. Wade.
But then she offered warm words to opponents of abortion and said that faith and organized religion were the "primary" reasons teenagers abstained from sexual relations.
Exhibit B - Faith Based Initiatives
"There is no contradiction between support for faith-based initiatives and upholding our constitutional principles," said Clinton, a New York Democrat who often is mentioned as a possible presidential candidate in 2008. (read full Boston Globe article)

I can't even figure out what you were objecting to in the "Exhibit A" section. That the number of unwanted pregnancies should be reduced? Do you really disagree with that??
Obviously religious faith is the main reason kids (intentionally) abstain, otherwise they'd be fucking like all of us. I don't get it -- what is the problem here?
Whoever posted that is an idiot. It's fucks like you that make conservatives think they're right about everything.

mmm...i'd missed that tradtitional democratic staple; the circular firing squad. With all the douchbag republicans around, the only person you can find time to complain about is Hilary? C'mon.
