A speech really is just words, no matter how well delivered. It does, however, lay out a standard for future judgment and evaluation. He says he wants to bridge divides - let's hold him to it.</LI></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.beliefnet.com/viamedia/2009/05/obama-at-notre-dame.html"><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Obama's speech made clear that support for means to "reducing unintended pregnancies" is crucial to his program. This usually translates into tax-supported contraceptive availability, morally indifferent sexuality education and lots of dollars for Planned Parenthood and the like.  That's fine with some, but just so you know.</LI></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.beliefnet.com/viamedia/2009/05/obama-at-notre-dame.html"><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Obama - and Jenkins - both emphasized dialogue. Obama said, "But surely we can do so without reducing those with differing views to caricature.   
<P> </P>Open hearts.  Open minds.  Fair-minded words."  I agree. And when those supporting Obama and Obama at Notre Dame stop referring to those standing in opposition as "GOP hacks," "ultraconservative minority" and "Catholic Sharia" - and actually <I>engaging the arguments instead - </I>we know we're getting somewhere.</LI></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4628E2F3-0282-402D-8BD2-CFDBA7593728/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
