		<description>Just for fun, here's one example.  http://www.worldcantwait.org/index.php?option=com_content&#38;view=article&#38;id=5593:on-abortion-obama-and-notre-dame-no-common-ground-with-fascists-and-women-haters-abortion-on-demand-and-without-apology&#38;catid=117:homepage&#38;Itemid=289 

But do a Google search with keywords like abortion protesters fanatics or fascist.  You get the idea.  

And then try to remember back to what news sources such as CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, the New York Times, the L.A. Times, etc said.  The one I saw was NBC.  It was not very complimentary.  That's a shame.  I thought the First Amendment protected free speech.  

Kenny, I've always staunchly defended your right to say what you please, even when I thought you were dead flat wrong.  In that regard, can't we all get along!</description>

		<description>Glad we agree on that last part.

I don't know what media you're watching, but I've never seen protesters labeled as you describe them.</description>

		<description>Uh... question.  Why is it when anti-war protesters show up with signs and bullhorns they are called patriotic Americans, and simultaneously, anti-abortion protesters who show up with signs and bullhorns are called un-American fanatics (or worse)?  Why is there such reverence for the one and such hateful disdain for the other?

I ain't that smert &#38; I jus don get it.  Uh oh.  Here comes Brother Dave to engage in another round of bullying and name calling.  

I do, however, agree with our President that more must be done to reduce unplanned pregnancies and reduce the number of women who seek abortions.</description>
