COLUMBIA, S.C. – South Carolina’s Democratic Party chairwoman said Wednesday that Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin’s top qualification seems to be not having had an abortion. She later apologized.

In an interview posted on the political Web site Politico, Chairwoman Carol Fowler said Republican John McCain picked a running mate “whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”

Fowler later apologized, saying she made the statement during an interview about single-issue voters.

“I personally admire and respect the difficult choices that women make everyday, and I apologize to anyone who finds my comment offensive,” Fowler said in a statement.

So its great that the chairwoman can twist her words from bashing Palin for never having an abortion, but then completely flip-flopping 180 degrees to say that its such a tough and difficult choice. That right, real tough. To kill or not to kill, that IS the question. Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the ridicule of the pinko party, or to be a person of good moral standing and integrity; and by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep, perhaps to dream about whether it is a flesh of tissue. Ah, but that’s the rub, because in the culture of death, what life may survive? Thinking like this turns every lefty into a bigger coward than he (Yeah that’s right, I don’t use inclusive language) already was. When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause. There’s the respect that makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, th’ oppressor’s wrong, the proud man’s contumely the pangs of despised love, the law’s delay, the insolence of office, and the spurns that patient merit of th’ unworthy takes, when he himself might his quietus make with a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear, to grunt and sweat under a weary life, but that the dread of something after death, the undiscovered country, from whose bourn no traveller returns, puzzles the will, and makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, and thus the native hue of resolution is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought,

And enterprise of great pitch and moment with this regard their currents turn awry

And lose the name of action. — Soft you now, the fair Palin! — Nymph, in thy orisons be all my sins remembered.

Be all of our sins remembered. Remember the best thing that we can do is to pray every day, unceasingly for the conversion of these souls.
