Well, all Pat Robinson cares about is how to make a buck by
entertaining and scaring his viewers... I watched a few minutes of his
"news" where he inserts comentary between valid news reports. I swear
that I thought the new anchor was going to slap him when he kept
talking over her reporting. Those videos that he and friend Farwell
sell and send to Congress probably turn quite a profit which they
probably claim as non-political educational material.

The anti-abortion people get worked up into a frenzy over the fact
that they see the clinics as slaughter houses. This, within that
frenzy, gives those who have not been taught unrockable moral codes
the right to defend the defenseless with lethal force. I am certain
that this is what will be argued in court. 

Of course most of the same anti-abortion people get all worked up over
less intrusive forms of birth control. I would think that they would
be overjoyed that a couple would want to use birth control devices or
pills to keep from having to have an abortion when they can't stay
be celibate or use the Catholic Churches advocated methods. What they
should be doing is to be supporting and volunteering at schools and
clinics to hand out condoms and information to everyone. Instead, they
wail in front of abortion clinics, network with others to remove the
woman's right of choice, threaten companies, threaten politicial
enemies, and get political friends to pass new laws.
