Embryo abortion: Not sure what you mean, I've never heard this term
It just means abortion-on-demand for a baby that is not yet a fetus.

Well, Iraq is a little complicated. But I opposed the war and have not been persuaded much since. Now, I understand the theoretical underpinnings of Bush's effort to reshape the Middle East... but Iraq is too divided internally. You have religious and ethnic splits, either of which alone are pretty treacherous.

So would I instantly pull troops? That's not really feasible-- we can't even do that if we want, it takes time. But certainly I would move in that direction.

note: sometimes I come across as pacifist because I am very skeptical of war as a legitimate moral act... morally I can only justify 1 war the US has fought... the Revolutionary War, that is. And I'm not super sold on that. I can see a case for Korea, a little bit. And there are perhaps wars we didn't fight that actually might have been morally correct, but that's speculation.

To all of you anti-death penalty pro-abortionists,  You support killing innocent children, but not the worst of our society? Pretty sick I must say.

I'm not pro-abortion, I'm pro-choice. There are many things worse than death, like spending a lifetime in prison for example.

With regards to abortion, government is allowing what some see as killing. With capital punishment, government is performing the killing.
