Sarah Palin weighs in

A couple hours ago, Gov. Palin released the following statement on the murder of Wichita abortionist George Tiller:

I feel sorrow for the Tiller family. I respect the sanctity of life and the tragedy that took place today in Kansas clearly violates respect for life. This murder also damages the positive message of life, for the unborn, and for those living. Ask yourself, “What will those who have not yet decided personally where they stand on this issue take away from today’s event in Kansas?”

Regardless of my strong objection to Dr. Tiller’s abortion practices, violence is never an answer in advancing the pro-life message.

For my thoughts and comments on this, see my post this morning on Conservatives4Palin.

  1. I couldn't help but be deeply personally entertained by the image of a huge oil pipeline on the Palin site (which I've never visited before, being neither conservative nor for Palin). Its kind of like a huge pot leaf on the Green Party website or something.

    Anyway, that's the kind of messed up person I am. We talk about a murder and I see humorous irony.

    I'm quite hopeless.

  2. I'm not sure of the irony there, but I can see why you were amused, and no, I wouldn't call you hopeless. šŸ™‚ (That's the Trans-Alaska, btw, in case you're curious.)
