1. Brown is Pro-choice???
How are the teabaggers dealing with that? For many of those RWer's being pro-choice is about as big of a no-no as you can be.

2. He's sort of pro-choice. He's in favor of all sorts of anti-choice loopholes.
Edited on Sat Jan-16-10 05:51 PM by Ian David
For example, if you're raped, and the ambulance brings you to a Catholic hospital (or if the person treating you has a "religious objection" )he's sponsored a bill allowing them to deny you emergency contraception, thus forcing you to conceive the rapist's child.

He's also opposed to the rarely-used, last resort, emergency intact-dilation extraction procedure, that's used only on non-viable fetuses in situations where the mother's safety would be at risk.

And don't forget, there are other "pro-choice" Republicans (Snowe and Collins, for example) who still vote to confirm forced-birth judges who want to over-throw both Rowe v Wade AND Griswold v Connecticut.

"Pro-Choice" means something completely different to a Republican.

5. Oh, and FWIW, this is how *I* scored on the quiz
Edited on Sat Jan-16-10 06:27 PM by Ian David
Here's my score:

Where You Fit In
Where your Personal score meets your Economic score on the grid below is your political philosophy. Based on the above score, you are a Hard-Core Liberal .



Ooh... except I answered one of the questions wrong... going back to fix

For some reason, it says I supported decreasing overall taxation of the wealthy. Can't find THAT question on the quiz anywhere.
