Teresa Heinz Kerry says she's pro-choice but believes abortion is "stopping the process of life," it was reported yesterday."I don't view abortion as just a nothing," said Heinz Kerry in an interview with Newsweek, in which she took a side in the long-festering debate over when life begins.
| Unlike her husband, who took both sides. |
The comments on abortion by the wife of presumed Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John Kerry came during a weekend where an estimated half-million people marched in Washington to support women's reproductive rights. "My belief - and I maybe am very wrong - is that women, generally speaking, do not want to have abortions," Heinz Kerry said. "With the exception of people who are mindless - and there will always be mindless people of both sexes - most women wouldn't want to," she added.
| So, the wife of the presumed Democratic nominee for President just called women who want abortions, "mindless". Anyone see this on ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/PBS, etc? |
Heinz Kerry once said that she was "not 100% pro-choice," but told the magazine that now the issue is black and white for her. "I ask myself if I had a 13-year-old daughter who got drunk one night and got pregnant, what would I do. Christ, I'd go nuts," Heinz Kerry said.
Asked if he shares his wife's views, Kerry told Newsweek, "I do not know the answer to that. We've never - she's never had to vote."
| "I didn't know she had a view, or a SUV, I was in Vietnam." |
Kerry appeared at an abortion rights rally in Washington Friday, saying, "Abortion should be rare but it should be safe and legal. And the government should stay out of the bedrooms of Americans." Both husband and wife agree that she is more traditional in her values than the Massachusetts senator, owing to the fact that she's five years older. "He's of the generation of the Beatles, and that's the line of demarcation," Heinz Kerry said.
| So, it is all the drugs he took in the 60's. |
