Those 56 points were very weak actually. What are you talking about. The biggest points were really lame excuses, like Bush kept reading to the children while the WTC burned because he didn't want to alarm them. What? That is bizarre. The rightwing should just admit Bush froze up and was paralyzed, not knowing what to do.

Kerry says he believes life starts at conception
By Jonathan Finer / The Washington Post
Monday, July 5, 2004

DYERSVILLE, Iowa -- As Sen. John Kerry campaigned across Iowa on Sunday with Gov. Tom Vilsack, widely reported to be on Kerry’s vice presidential short list, both men dodged repeated questions about whether their joint appearance might be a preview of the Democratic ticket.

But even as he tried to avoid making news Sunday, Kerry broke new ground in an interview that ran in the Dubuque, Iowa, daily, the Telegraph Herald. A Catholic who supports abortion rights and has taken heat recently from some in the church hierarchy for his stance, Kerry told the paper: “I oppose abortion, personally. I don’t like abortion. I believe life does begin at conception.”

Spokesman Stephanie Cutter said that although Kerry has often said abortion should be “safe, legal and rare,” and that his religion shapes that view, she could not recall him ever publicly discussing when life begins.

“I can’t take my Catholic belief, my article of faith, and legislate it on a Protestant or a Jew or an atheist,” he continued in the interview. “We have separation of church and state in the United States of America.” The comments came on the final day of a three-state Midwest swing, during which Kerry has repeatedly sought to dispel stereotypes that could play negatively among voters in the Heartland.
