The second idea is abortion. Now I suppose this is a personal/opinionated matter, but, I think we could all agree that abortion would be a great way to control the population. I personally am for abortion, and in all honesty, isn't this the whole strongpoint for republicans? They stick this idea out that they are ANTI abortion, yet they do absolutely nothing about it to stop it. They know that holding that idea out in the open (that they are anti abortion) will get them plenty of votes.

I don't like abortion, but it's not my place to tell a woman she should not get one.
I don't think the Republicans would overturn Roe V Wade because it helps them win with the ultra religious folks and Fundies.
I went through some case history on abortion cases like Roe and Casey, and made a little list:

Pro-Abortion Supreme Court justices nominated by Republican Presidents:
Blackmun
Stewart
Brennan
Powell
Burger
Stevens
O'Connor
Kennedy
Souter
Pro-Abortion Supreme Court justices nominated by Democratic Presidents:
Marshall
Douglas
Ginsburg
Breyer

As you can see, Republican presidents have nominated over twice as many pro-choice justices as Democratic presidents!
I think you'd have to be a bit of a sap to base your vote on abortion alone, but most people wouldn't look that kind of thing up as I have and are caught up in the rhetoric.
However, if you want the morning after pill available otc, and also stem cell research legalized, Bush is against those things.
