I myself feel that abortion is wrong. Even if I was raped, I would have the child. I can't expect everybody to share my same beliefs though. I wouldn't think it was fair for me to judge everyone else's situations and tell them they can't have abortions. I was fortunate to grow up in a wonderful, loving family. I know not everyone else has and lots of bad things are going on in this world. I definately think abortion should happen when the mother's life is at stake (even if the baby's life is not at risk). I don't like Bush's views on it because he is holding everybody to his same standards. He also gives religious reasons for a lot of what he does, which makes seperation of church and state seem like a joke (yes, I am religious too, but don't think he should use it to make presidential decisions).

Here is something Dukedogsmom pointed out in another thread:

President Bush has announced his plan to select Dr. W. David Hager to head up the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Reproductive Health Drugs Advisory Committee. Hager is a practicing obstetrician-gynecologist, and sources told Time magazine that in his private practice he will not prescribe contraceptives to unmarried women. He is also the author of a book which suggests that women who suffer from premenstrual syndrome should seek help from reading the bible and praying.

Women rely on the FDA to ensure their access to safe and effective drugs for reproductive health care including products that have been proven to help safely prevent pregnancy. For some women - such as those with certain types of diabetes and those undergoing treatment for cancer - pregnancy can be a life-threatening condition. Religion should not be a barrier to access to safe and effective drugs that are necessary for preserving and promoting women's health and protecting women's lives.

(The news is about 2 years old, but if you search for David Hager, you can find TONS of sites about it .. this was the first one I clicked on .. some are better)

That is the only thing I've heard in how women will be in trouble. I'm not really one of the people who think he'll ruin women's rights. But I will say that I am very sad for the gay community. They are people too and they deserve every right that you and I have.

I guess I haven't answered your real question since it was about women, so I'll stop here even though I could go on with other things I strongly disagree with. Just wanted point out that there are a lot of people of religious faith and who are pro-life as well, but strongly disagree with him on how he handles these things.
