Must read from Slate on John McCain's anti-choice record.
It's not just that I disagree with McCain on this, which I do. It's that so far he's gotten to have his cake and eat it, too, on the issue of family health and reproductive rights. People buy his branding as a "maverick" and assume that this means he's moderate on every issue. He's not.
Hey, if you're one of the 20 percent or so of Americans who think that surgical abortion should be illegal in every case, and one of the even smaller percentage who think that women can't even be trusted to use birth control pills or decide to give birth at home in the tub, then by all means vote for McCain. But if you don't agree with those positions, please, please, PLEASE educate yourself and don't buy the hype.
