Romney and Reporter Go At It

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0108/7955.html

In South Carolina, Governor Mitt Romney and Glen Johnson of the AP got into a shouting match over Ron Kaufman's role in Romney's campaign.

After the skirmish, Romney's traveling Press Secretary Eric Fehrnstrom put Johnson in his place.

Fehrnstrom: “Save your opinions and act professional,”
“Don’t be argumentative with the candidate.”

Kudos to Romney and Fehrnstrom for fighting back. Some candidates let the media get away with a lot. Some people put up with a lot of nonsense. I am glad the Romney campaign didn't this time. The American people will side with Romney on this one.

1.2 million is NOT a small number

According to a new report by the Guttmacher Institute, "the number of abortions being performed in the United States has dropped to 1.2 million a year-the lowest level since 1976." (Boston Globe, "Number of abortions lowest in decades")

Although, this blog is glad that abortions are down, this is still very disturbing. People are hailing this as such a small number. Think about it! 1.2 million is a lot of people to be killed every year because of irresponsibility and reckless behavior. Not surprisingly, abortion rates tend to be higher in the Northeast, where morals are loose and ethical standards can't be found.

Mitt Wins Michigan

In addition to the Wyoming caucuses, Mitt Romney has added another victory to his run for the White House.
