Welcome to 201k.com - A Commonwealth Perspective.

The floodgates have opened on Sarah Palin's positions. Here's a few courtesy of Boston.com:

"A significant part of Palin's base of support lies among social and Christian conservatives. Her positions on social issues emerged slowly during the campaign: on abortion (should be banned for anything other than saving the life of the mother), stem cell research (opposed), physician-assisted suicide (opposed), creationism (should be discussed in schools), state health benefits for same-sex partners (opposed, and supports a constitutional amendment to bar them)."

Presumably Anita Bryant wasn't available.

[Palin] learned that her son had Down Syndrome when she was four months pregnant, and she told the Associated Press in May that she never considered ending the pregnancy. "We've both been very vocal about being pro-life," she said in the AP interview.

We're a little creeped out by this, frankly. Her decision to have a baby with Down Syndrome at age 42 certainly has a feel-good quality to it, but it's more than a little disturbing to think that she'd deprive other American woman of the same choice.

And she did have a choice, whatever she "considered," and however she decided to act.

Voters need to ask themselves if, finding themselves pregnant at age 42 with a child with Down Syndrome, they should have no choice of whether or not to have the child.

Because that's what Sarah Palin wants.
