… I’m not complaining about this. Cheney is as good a place to start as any. Congressman Dennis Kucinich has drafted H Res 333 (PDF synopsis) outlining a case for impeaching Cheney. We’ve got to start somewhere, folks. At some point we have got to stand up or we will all fall down. We are risking the nation itself by letting these clowns stay in office.

Right?
In 1986, government scientists wrote a letter to the British journal Lancet and acknowledged that abortion is a cause of breast cancer. They wrote, “Induced abortion before first term pregnancy increases the risk of breast cancer.” (Lancet, 2/22/86, p. 436)
Hey! The 1980s! Big Hair and parachute pants! Yeah!
The anti-abortion folk really latched onto this bit of news. “Abortion causes increased risk for breast cancer, therefore we ought to make it illegal and failing that we want to be sure to scare people with it.” It is really a kind-of odd argument when you think about it. Any medical procedure you care to name carries risks. That is the nature of the beast. Hell, choosing to take allergy medication carries risks. Read the warning label.
