The Wall Street Journal reports today that the Bush administration has rescinded rules aimed to keep buinesses that violate certain categories of federal law from getting government contracts. The nixed rules required government contracting agents to consider a company's history before awarding new contracts. Under the rules, contractors would have been required to certify in writing a three-year record of "satisfactory compliance" with federal laws and a "satisfactory record" of integrity and business ethics. No need for ethics or to operate within the law to get a government contract in the Bush administration.

Ah, yes, the fabled judgement-free society where anything goes.

you just jump all over the place don't you. First you accuse me of so much hatred all the while cursing me beyond measure, then you accuse me of hating poor children because I am prolife, but NOW...NOW I see what has you by the short hairs..."it is you that wants to oppress the rights of women? I am in favor of letting a woman decide what she should do with her body." textbook NOW garbage. But hey...who am I to argue....LET the woman do what she wants with HER body...but as we have established...another created human being, even if in the womb, is NOT her body...it is the body of another....and 50% chance another woman/female/child/baby/fetus. SO let's not kill her/him. Or is it that you are in favor of a woman being able to "abort" her children up to the age of accountability and/or responsibility? What age would that be? 10 ,12? Who wants to be Judge now?? You must, as we have already established that human life is unique, and begins at conception. I can see you sitting in your closet with your NOW handbook whacking yourself in the head and screaming, "Thank you sir, may I have another"...etc.

You blithely ignore the other party in that equation. The unborn person is not part of the woman's body. I am in favor of letting a woman decide what she should do with her body.
