John McCain believes “Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench”.
Constitutional balance would be restored by the reversal of Roe v. Wade, returning the abortion question to the individual states. The difficult issue of abortion should not be decided by judicial fiat.
However, the reversal of Roe v. Wade represents only one step in the long path toward ending abortion. Once the question is returned to the states, the fight for life will be one of courage and compassion - the courage of a pregnant mother to bring her child into the world and the compassion of civil society to meet her needs and those of her newborn baby.
The pro-life movement has done tremendous work in building and reinforcing the infrastructure of civil society by strengthening faith-based, community, and neighborhood organizations that provide critical services to pregnant mothers in need. This work must continue and government must find new ways to empower and strengthen these armies of compassion. These important groups can help build the consensus necessary to end abortion at the state level. As John McCain has publicly noted, "At its core, abortion is a human tragedy. To effect meaningful change, we must engage the debate at a human level."

The wife U.S. Republican John McCain callously left behind
McCain likes to illustrate his moral fiber by referring to his five years as a prisoner-of-war in Vietnam. And to demonstrate his commitment to family values, the 71-year-old former US Navy pilot pays warm tribute to his beautiful blonde wife, Cindy, with whom he has four children.
But there is another Mrs. McCain who casts a ghostly shadow over the Senator’s presidential campaign. She is seldom seen and rarely written about, despite being mother to McCain’s three eldest children.
And yet, had events turned out differently, it would be she, rather than Cindy, who would be vying to be First Lady. She is McCain’s first wife, Carol, who was a famous beauty and a successful swimwear model when they married in 1965.
Why McCain didn't reup with first wife
McCain likes to illustrate his moral fiber by referring to his five years as a prisoner-of-war in Vietnam. And to demonstrate his commitment to family values, the 71-year-old former US Navy pilot pays warm tribute to his beautiful blonde wife, Cindy, with whom he has four children.
But there is another Mrs. McCain who casts a ghostly shadow over the Senator’s presidential campaign. She is seldom seen and rarely written about, despite being mother to McCain’s three eldest children....
[W]hen McCain returned to America in 1973 to a fanfare of publicity and a handshake from Richard Nixon, he discovered his wife had been disfigured in a terrible car crash three years earlier. Her car had skidded on icy roads into a telegraph pole on Christmas Eve, 1969. Her pelvis and one arm were shattered by the impact and she suffered massive internal injuries.
When Carol was discharged from hospital after six months of life-saving surgery, the prognosis was bleak. In order to save her legs, surgeons had been forced to cut away huge sections of shattered bone, taking with it her tall, willowy figure. She was confined to a wheelchair and was forced to use a catheter.
Through sheer hard work, Carol learned to walk again. But when John McCain came home from Vietnam, she had gained a lot of weight and bore little resemblance to her old self.
Today, she stands at just 5ft4in and still walks awkwardly, with a pronounced limp. Her body is held together by screws and metal plates and, at 70, her face is worn by wrinkles that speak of decades of silent suffering....
McCain divorced her in 1980 and married Cindy, 18 years his junior and the heir to an Arizona brewing fortune, just one month later....
'My accident is well recorded. I had 23 operations, I am five inches shorter than I used to be and I was in hospital for six months. It was just awful, but it wasn’t the reason for my divorce.
‘My marriage ended because John McCain didn’t want to be 40, he wanted to be 25. You know that happens...it just does.’
Some of McCain’s acquaintances are less forgiving, however. They portray the politician as a self-centered womanizer who effectively abandoned his crippled wife to ‘play the field’. They accuse him of finally settling on Cindy, a former rodeo beauty queen, for financial reasons....
When McCain – his hair turned prematurely white and his body reduced to little more than a skeleton – was released in March 1973, he told reporters he was overjoyed to see Carol again.
But friends say privately he was ‘appalled’ by the change in her appearance. At first, though, he was kind, assuring her: ‘I don’t look so good myself. It’s fine.’...
In 1979 – while still married to Carol – he met Cindy at a cocktail party in Hawaii. Over the next six months he pursued her, flying around the country to see her. Then he began to push to end his marriage.
Carol and her children were devastated. ‘It was a complete surprise,’ says Nancy Reynolds, a former Reagan aide....
Ted Sampley, who fought with US Special Forces in Vietnam and is now a leading campaigner for veterans’ rights, said: ‘I have been following John McCain’s career for nearly 20 years. I know him personally. There is something wrong with this guy and let me tell you what it is – deceit.
‘When he came home and saw that Carol was not the beauty he left behind, he started running around on her almost right away. Everybody around him knew it.
‘Eventually he met Cindy and she was young and beautiful and very wealthy. At that point McCain just dumped Carol for something he thought was better.
‘This is a guy who makes such a big deal about his character. He has no character. He is a fake. If there was any character in that first marriage, it all belonged to Carol.’...
But Ross Perot, who paid her medical bills all those years ago, now believes that both Carol McCain and the American people have been taken in by a man who is unusually slick and cruel – even by the standards of modern politics.
‘McCain is the classic opportunist. He’s always reaching for attention and glory,’ he said.
‘After he came home, Carol walked with a limp. So he threw her over for a poster girl with big money from Arizona. And the rest is history.’

Unless you're McCain
Let’s Just Take A Look At That Temper and His Devotion To His Beautiful Dutiful Meal Ticket Wife!
In his 1992 Senate bid, McCain was joined on the campaign trail by his wife, Cindy, as well as campaign aide Doug Cole and consultant Wes Gullett. At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain's hair and said, "You're getting a little thin up there." McCain's face reddened, and he responded, "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt." McCain's excuse was that it had been a long day. If elected president of the United States, McCain would have many long days.

John McCain's relationship with Vicky Iseman
JOHN McCain AND THE TELECOM LOBBYIST....OK, let's dive into the John McCain story. According to a heavily padded piece in the New York Times today, several of Mr. Straight Talk's aides became concerned during the 2000 campaign that he was spending a wee bit too much time with an attractive, 32-year-old telecom lobbyist named Vicki Iseman:
In 1999 she began showing up so frequently in his offices and at campaign events that staff members took notice. One recalled asking, "Why is she always around?"
....A former campaign adviser described being instructed to keep Ms. Iseman away from the senator at public events, while a Senate aide recalled plans to limit Ms. Iseman's access to his offices.
In interviews, the two former associates said they joined in a series of confrontations with Mr. McCain, warning him that he was risking his campaign and career. Both said Mr. McCain acknowledged behaving inappropriately and pledged to keep his distance from Ms. Iseman. The two associates, who said they had become disillusioned with the senator, spoke independently of each other and provided details that were corroborated by others.
Separately, a top McCain aide met with Ms. Iseman at Union Station in Washington to ask her to stay away from the senator. John Weaver, a former top strategist and now an informal campaign adviser, said in an e-mail message that he arranged the meeting after "a discussion among the campaign leadership" about her.
Josh Marshall thinks there's more here than meets the eye:
This is an odd story for a couple reasons. We know that the McCain Camp went to the mattresses to get this story spiked back in December. And some heavy legal muscle was apparently brought to bear. When a story has to go through that much lawyering it often comes out pretty stilted and with some obvious lacunae. And this one definitely qualifies. Reading the Times piece it struck me as a bit of a jumble. The reference to a possible affair is there in the lead. But then most of the piece is a rehash of a lot of older material about McCain's record before getting back to the relationship with Iseman.
In terms of a relationship between the two, the Times piece seems quite hedged. According to two staffers, staffers became concerned there was a romantic relationship. They took steps to protect McCain from himself. According to the Times sources, after being confronted by staffers, McCain "acknowledged behaving inappropriately and pledged to keep his distance from Ms. Iseman."
Equally telling, though, is the McCain camp's response and their clear unwillingness to address or deny any the key charges of the piece. (Read the statement closely. It's all bluster.) When it comes to sex stories even falsely accused politicians have some reluctance to get into nitty gritty denials. But McCain -- or rather McCain's communications office since it's in their name not his -- doesn't even address it.

John McCain's record on reproductive rights couldn't be more appalling.
McCain has consistently received a big fat zero fromNARAL on its pro-choice scorecard. We're talking about a man who has voted anti-choice 123 out of 128 times.
John McCain's Record on the Issues
A vote for John McCain is a vote against women's issues. During his long Senate career, John McCain has racked up a poor record when it comes to supporting issues important to women. Learn the facts so you can make an informed voting decision.
For the past 25 years, John McCain has consistently voted against women's health. From opposing funding for family planning programs to voting against requiring insurance coverage of birth control, McCain has taken extreme positions. He has voted against women's health and has not supported legislation that would help reduce the rate of unintended pregnancies and the need for abortion. This has earned him a zero rating - the lowest rating we give in the U.S. Senate.
(Source: Planned Parenthood)
A poll conducted by Planned Parenthood in 16 likely battleground states uncovered the following:
- Despite his extreme voting record, 51 percent of women voters in battleground states have no idea what John McCain's positions are on women's reproductive health issues.
- Forty-nine percent of women currently backing McCain express pro-choice views, and 46 percent of women supporting McCain over Obama/Clinton want to see Roe v. Wade upheld – yet McCain supports overturning the legislation.
Help spread the word that John McCain is not a candidate women can count on to advocate issues important to us. His record speaks for itself.
The following is based on John McCain's voting record in the Senate on issues related to women’s health and well being.
Bill/Amendment -McCain’s Vote
Comprehensive Sex Education -NO
Global Gag Rule -NO
International Family Planning Funding -NO
Abortion Access for Women in the Military -NO
Abortion Ban -NO
Patient Privacy -NO
Comprehensive Family Planning -NO
Fetal Rights -NO
Violence Against Reproductive Healthcare Providers -NO
Health Care for Low Income Families –NO
McCain has voted consistently against women's health, and he supports overturning the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling, Roe v. Wade. Following is a summary of his positions on women's issues.
McCain Opposed Equal Pay Bill for Women, Said They ‘Need Education and Training’ Instead. McCain skipped a vote on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act that would ensure women have the opportunity to recover back pay for discrimination once they discover it. If he had been there to vote, he said he would have voted against it and that women “need education and training” rather than an equal pay bill. The bill addressed a recent Supreme Court decision that said Steelworker Lilly Ledbetter could not recover back pay for 19 years of discrimination at Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. because she had not discovered the unequal pay until she retired. The bill would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to allow employees to file charges of pay discrimination within 180 days of the last received paycheck affected by the discrimination.

McCain Voted to Gut the Family and Medical Leave Act. In 1993, before finally voting for the Family and Medical Leave Act, McCain voted to jeopardize leave for millions of workers by gutting the bill. He voted to suspend the Family and Medical Leave Act unless the federal government certified that compliance would not increase business expenses or provide financial assistance to businesses to cover any related costs.

In February 2007, the AP quoted McCain stating, "I do not support Roe v. Wade. It should be overturned." In May 2007, he reiterated his desire to overturn Roe v. Wade during an appearance on Meet the Press stating, ”My position has been consistently in my voting record, pro-life, and I continue to maintain that position and voting record."
Why Do Women Give McCain a Zero?

There are 3 reasons why McCain won't win the general election in November. 1. Women. 2. Women. 3. Women.
1. McCain is dangerous for women. He opposed equal pay for equal work, opposes reproductive rights for women, and thinks it is OK to make jokes about bombing Iran. WOMEN and children are often the innocent victims of indiscriminate, deadly bombing attacks...
2. Women who supported Hillary Clinton, Democrats, would love to vote for him but cannot forget that McCain voted to impeach Hillary's husband, Bill Clinton, for cheating with Monica. This was hypocrisy because McCain divorced his first wife, Carol, after cheating on Carol with Cindy, his second wife!
3. McCain famously referred to his second wife, Cindy, as a "C--NT" and to Senator Hillary Clinton as a "BI-CH! ('nuff said)
BONUS TRACK: McCain has recently admitted he doesn't even know how to use a computer. McCain has admitted he knows little about the economy.
McCain wants to make the Bush tax cuts permanent. McCain thinks our present health care system is adequate. McCain voted against veterans in 2004, 2005,2006, and 2007.
He missed a vote on a new GI Bill in the Senate for a new GI Bill to provide better education benefits for returning veterans, many of whom are WOMEN... McCain needs women, but his policies (George Bush clone) make him a very unattractive candidate...
Condi Rice, (a Black WOMAN) was offered the VP slot on McCain's GOP Dream Ticket - but refused the honor(?) of becoming the first African American (ever) & First Female to possibly become VP of the USA... Ann Coulter, called "Mrs. Right" by Time Magazine, famously stated she would campaign actively for Hillary Clinton if McCain won the GOP nomination...
The GOP? What about the Republican Party? John and Cindy McCain didn't vote for Bush.
Rumor has it that the WOMEN in the Bush family are planning on returning the favor... Women-Women-Women:

WHY JOHN MCCAIN WON'T WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION - Click here for funny video clips
"John McCain looked like a deer caught in the headlights when asked about an issue of vital importance to millions of women, that has been a topic of national and Congressional conversation and that he has voted on in the U.S. Senate. John McCain should give women of America a little of his infamous 'Straight Talk' instead of pleading memory loss due to the thousands of votes he has cast and dodging a straightforward question about his position.
"This vote was not one of thousands on naming a post office or a federal building -- it was on a critical issue for women -- one that has received considerable debate and attention. For the record, since he doesn't seem to remember, John McCain voted against requiring health insurance plans to cover prescription birth control while many of these same plans cover drugs like Viagra.
"It's appalling that someone seeking to be President has either not even thought about or is unwilling to discuss such an important issue and the economic impact it has on millions of women. It's a further insult that someone who promises 'straight talk' would avoid answering a straightforward question about an issue that is so important to American women. How can we trust John McCain when he won't tell us where he stands and his campaign advisors are willing to mislead us on his record?" SOURCE Democratic National Committee
Back in 1999, McCain was walking a tightrope by calling himself pro-life on a personal level while at the same time assuring pro-choice voters for pragmatic reasons that “in the short term, or even the long term, I would not support repeal of Roe v. Wade.” Yet, today, McCain says bluntly right on his website that “John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned.”
· McCain was against the repeal of Roe v. Wade before he was for it.
· McCain was against torture before he was for it. Really for it.
· McCain was against crazy right-wing preachers like Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson before he was for them.
· McCain was against Bush’s tax cuts for the wealthy before he was for them.
· McCain was against shady Bush “Pioneer” Texas billionaire swift-boat financiers before he was for them.
· McCain was for the McCain-Feingold campaign finance law before he was against it and began breaking it.
· McCain was against Grover Norquist, whom he called “corrupt, a shill for dictators“ before he was for him.
· McCain was against BJU because of its “hateful,” “racist and cruel” policies before he was for it.
· McCain was against ethanol before he was for ethanol and then he was against it again.
· McCain was against a Martin Luther King holiday before he was for it. …
And that’s not all. There’s many many more. In fact, here’s an even longer list. McCain has reversed his former positions to fall more in line with the Bush administration so many times now it’s really hard to tell Bush and McCain apart (Crooks and Liars )
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) "drew sharp contrast" with Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) on abortion rights, equal pay for women, and family and medical leave during campaign events in New York and Virginia, the Los Angeles Times reports. Obama said, "I'll never back down in defending a woman's right to choose" (Roug/Reston, Los Angeles Times, 7/11).
McCain "has made it abundantly clear that he ... hopes to see" Roe v. Wade overturned and that he would appoint Supreme Court justices like Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito, Obama said. He added, "I stand by my votes against confirming Justices Roberts and Alito." Obama said voters will decide when selecting the next president "whether we'll have judges who demonstrate sound judgment and empathy, who understand how law operates in our daily lives, who are committed to upholding the values at the core of our Constitution -- or judges who put ideology before justice, with our fundamental rights as the first casualty" (Sidoti, AP/Google.com, 7/10).
Obama also said that McCain does not support equal pay for women and said that economic policies that affect women affect everyone. Obama said, "When a job doesn't offer family leave, that also hurts families who may want to care for a newborn baby or ailing parent. When there's no affordable childcare or after school programs, that hurts children. ... When women make only 77 cents for every dollar that a man makes, that doesn't just hurt women. It hurts families" (Los Angeles Times, 7/11). Obama said he would expand family and medical leave programs and require employers to offer seven days of paid sick leave (Dominello, Medical General/Richmond-Times Dispatch, 7/11).
McCain called Obama's proposal to expand family and medical leave a "big-government solution" and said sick days should be negotiated between management and labor. McCain said he is committed to doing whatever he can "to encourage the participation of women in all walks of life and make sure that any barriers to their advancement are eliminated" (Los Angeles Times, 7/11).
