Reject President Bush's Anti-Choice Nominee, Robert Conrad
Target: U.S. SenateSponsored by: NARAL Pro-Choice America
Do you remember Richard Honaker? He was President Bush's pick for a lifetime appointment to a federal district court who tried to outlaw abortion three times in Wyoming. Now, Bush is at it again! This time, he and his allies in the Senate are pushing for a new anti-choice nominee as judge on the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals: Robert Conrad. Robert Conrad has called Planned Parenthood a "radical, pro-abortion fringe group" that "promotes a radical abortion agenda." What's more, from 1983 to 1986, Conrad served on the board of directors for a so-called "crisis pregnancy center" that provided medically inaccurate information about pregnancy, contraception and abortion. Clearly, he isn't fair-minded – and he doesn't deserves a lifetime appointment as a federal judge! Urge your senators to reject the nomination of Robert Conrad today.

Either put mainstream judges up for conformation or expect us the people of this once great nation to tell our representatives to deny them a hearing or vote.

Robert Conrad has expressed extreme views which are not acceptable for a judge.

Alot of people fought the battle to enable women to have the right to make their own choices concerning their bodies..How, in this day and age, can anyone think that banning abortion is a good idea. I suppose these are the same ppeople who teach abstinence in schools...NEWS FLASH Kids will still have unprotected sex (as well as adults), there will still be rape and many other reasons for unwanted pregnancy..Do we really want children raising children, and, should you have to think of your rapist every time you look at your child? And, have you seen statistics on child abuse. And there is always that teenage girl who'll give birth in a bathroom and then put the baby in a dumpster...I certainly hope that you don't find these options better than a womans right to choose.

Shame it seems to me this issue is still being battled for women to have their own choice in what they do with their own body. The world has become too complex with too many people putting their interest where it doesn't belong. How can YOU Mr. Conrad set on a lifetime bench as a judge and make personal decisions for any woman? You Mr.Conrad have your beliefs as a man and each are entitled to have that. Did you see that Mr. Conrad? Each are entitiled as people to have their own free choices as their own beliefs, who are you Mr. Conrad to make anothers choice for them? Have you carried a child Mr. Conrad? Of course not. Have you Mr. Conrad stepped in a womans shoes for a day and wore them? Of Course not. It is insaine for you Mr. Conrad to set on a lifetime bench and make such choices for any woman.

To force one person's opinion on all people destroys and prevents the freedoms to live as you believe and to think freely that are promised by our Constitution! To allow one man to force his opinion on everyone else is cruel dictatorship, not democracy, and it is not being fair to all humanity! A man who probably has never ever had to make a hard choice about whether or not to give up a child, has no business telling people what they can and cannot do, nor what they should or should not do!
