What do you think of McCain and Obama's views on women's issues? Why?

Answer 1

Favorite Answer

The main difference = Obama is for a woman having control over her own body....McBush wants to tell women what they can and can not do with their OWN bodies!!

Answer 2

Abortion is an issue that should not be taken lightly.

What you need to think about, pro-choicers, is that there is a human being growing inside a woman. It's inside her body, but it's not her body. There's a difference.

And calling abortion a "Women's issue" is sexist. It's as much the guy's baby as it is the girl's. Also, many men do take issue with it. Why not just call it "Abortion?"

Answer 3

It is obvious that Senator Obama champions women's rights, while McCain would like nothing more than to revert to the pre-Rove, disastrous policies of the government dictating what should be a personal, private decision.

Answer 4

I prefer McCain because he is pro life. I know that this may be hard for you to imagine, and I know that you might expect me to be for Obama because he "champions women's rights" as Carol A claims, but seriously, as a pro life woman I prefer McCain.

Answer 5

Obama greatly underpays women on his staff. He treats them like 3rd rate people. Sad.

Answer 6

Reagan's rule of nuke verification works here: Trust but verify.
