The American Spectator

I am admittedly biased, but I want to say to whoever will listen that Fran Drescher is a disgraceful human being.

My 35-year-old wife recently had surgery for ovarian cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy at this time. As a couple, we could not naturally conceive, and we made three in-vitro attempts which failed. Ladies who cannot conceive are more at risk for ovarian cancer, and it is one of the deadliest cancers that females can contract.

All my wife ever wanted to be was a mommy. She cried for hours when the reality sunk in, and this was before enduring the physical pain of an 8-hour surgery and knowing through family history what chemotherapy can bring. And Ms. Drescher is upset that she lost her right to choose. She should thank God that her mother did not exercise that right.

p>I do not write this for sympathy or in anger at the circumstances, because with the power of God we will handle it. But when you link the words of Ms. Drescher with those of Senator Obama, who has no problem with infanticide and thinks that a poor decision by his daughters could “punish” him with a grandchild, I think you can get an idea about whom I think should NOT be in the White House. br> — Al Pote br> Lake City, Illinois /p>

Fran Drescher: “My right to choose was taken away when I was given a radical hysterectomy to cure my cancer,” Drescher said. “I hate that I lost my right to choose, and you will, too.”

In response, McCain writes: “The logic of that statement doesn’t quite hold together — what Republican would deny a woman the ability to bear children, as Drescher’s hysterectomy did? — but it was nonetheless applauded heartily by the Women’s Caucus.”

p>Mr. McCain, can’t you understand plain English? Drescher isn’t upset because she can’t have children, she’s upset because she can’t have an abortion! br> — Dan Martin br> Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania /p>
