Certainly this is no surprise--as noted, Biden's mouth has gotten him in trouble before. He was on "Meet the Press" on Sunday with Tom Brokaw, and it just amazes me how he gets the kit glove treatment and no one really questions it (it seems). If nothing else, Sarah Palin's candidacy has brought new attention to the life issue, and thus gives FFL members the chance to dispel a lot of pro-abortion myths that, again amazingly, are still out there. The question Brokaw posed to Biden was "When do you think life begins?" Which of course is the wrong question completely and totally frames the issue incorrectly. Of course Biden gave the old canard "personally opposed, but" speech. While his religious beliefs and personal, private thought says life begins at conception, he wouldn't "impose" that on anyone else. Please, I don't need to open the Bible or the Koran to know what every science textbook will show and what everyone already knows--that every individual human being begins life at the moment of conception, and that every abortion ends a human life. The question isn't "when does life begin?" but at what point should the law protect human life? Are we willing to exclude anyone in the human family from the mantle of protection based upon their stage of development or condition of dependency? As I'm sure other FFL members would attest, this is only one of many examples that have been voiced in recent days--we need to be out in force to set the record straight on so many misunderstandings and falsehoods out there.
