CHANTILLY, Va. - A new drug store at a Virginia strip mall is putting its faith in an unconventional business plan: No candy. No sodas. And no birth c...

There is precious little public debate on whether actually having a child is necessarily a viable choice, financially and professionally. For many, it's not.

In comparison to the plight of the unborn, what is the economy, poverty, labor rights, equal pay for equal work, or the war in Iraq? For some Catholic voters, it is crucial to choose a presidential candidate who would pick justices committed to overturning Roe v. Wade. But would McCain?

Life is precious. John McCain believes that, Barack Obama believes that, Sarah Palin believes that, and so does Joe Biden. In fact, I'm not sure I have ever met a person who believes otherwise.

McCain's outright mockery of the health and life of the mother as being a legitimate reason for termination was deplorable. How dare he!?

Palin respects the family - if it's her family. If it is your family, no such protection is necessary. You will be urged to find home-based child care rather than using the care facility at your workplace, near your school, or with early childhood development professionals.

Palin's answers on reproductive health issues, such as criminalizing abortion, were a rambling mix of contradictions and platitudes, much like her answers the bailout, health care, and the economy.

We need to remember that women have made great strides for personal freedom over the years. Now is not the time to take a step backwards and let history repeat itself.

If the coming election is lost, to put the matter bluntly, women will come full circle. Overruling Roe would return choice to the states.

Do Democrats really perpetually want to lose elections to keep a small minority of Americans--the pro-choice fundamentalists--happy by keeping abortion legal up to the moment of birth?

According to CNN over half the delegates to the DNC are women. Here are some of the events created for women for the Convention.

The Republican leadership is not pro-life. They are simply against abortion for reasons of political expediency.

The "partial birth abortion" debate is an utterly pointless distraction, and Obama has completely played into the hands of the anti-choice organizations who want only to entrap him in political sport.

For the first time in decades, the makeup on the Court is direct and center in the election. McCain and Obama have staked out totally different positions -- and whoever wins will have two nominations.

This weekend McCain tried to project a moderate image but wound up doing the opposite, extolling military diplomacy, supporting Bush court appointments, and assailing reproductive and gay rights.

It's surprising that more women aren't backing Obama given McCain's abysmal reproductive rights record.

Given Clinton's recent major and undeniable race-inflected victories, the increasing charges of sexism, particularly against Obama himself, are misguided at best. This is no way to advance party unity or women's rights.
