This country and our government need to be cleaned up and turned around. Who better to do it than Romney, who made a himself a fortune by cleaning up and turning around companies. Romney is just who we need right now...it's astounding that 50% of the population is clueless enough to still want Obama.

To which Michelle replied, "No, this is MY house!"

Anyone from Wisconsin who can report on the general feeling on the ground there?

This seems like a silly law to me. If a woman wanted to murder her unborn child because it was a girl, but gender-based abortion is illegal....then all she has to say is, "Oh, no reason, I just don't want to have this baby"....and the abortion can proceed. ????????

I just don't understand this. If it's ok to say, "I don't want this baby, so I'm aborting it." Then why is it so wrong to say, "I don't want this baby because it's a girl, so I'm aborting it." ? Why is the second any more abhorrent than the first?

Finding the "gay gene" may be the only hope we have in reducing the number of abortions. You know that once the gay gene is found, most "gay" babies will be aborted, like most Down Syndrome babies are. Then maybe we can find common cause with gays and and end abortion as we know it.. Of course, it's entirely possible that they will only make it illegal to abort GAY babies...all others remaining "fair game".

Finding the "gay gene" may be the only hope we have in reducing the number of abortions. Once the gene is found, we can unite with gays to end abortion as we know it.. Of course, it's entirely possible that it will only then be illegal to abort GAY babies.

Simple... if you're dependent on government, you will vote for democrats to keep the gravy train going. If Obama gets reelected, America will be permanently in the toilet.

Exactly. I complained recently about this advertising to encourage people to sign up for food stamps, and I was attacked - verbally ripped apart - for being "heartless".

Excellent column, Mr. Elder.
