Kevin Burns, 43, a 14th CD Republican Primary candidate who has lived in the District since he was 10, has been Mayor of Geneva (Population: 25,000) for the last six years, is generally referred to as the "moderate," in the 14th CD Republican Primary race and is a professional fund raiser for Midwestern University, debates and discusses with show host and executive legal recruiter Jeff Berkowitz whether the U. S. should pursue more offense and/or defense in the global war on terrorism, more warrantless wiretaps, more aggressive interrogations of detainees at Gitmo, stay or change the course in Iraq, pursue more or less free trade, follow the Iraq Study Group's recommendations, pursue comprehensive immigration reform, make the Bush tax cuts permanent, pursue universal health care, keep abortions legal, require parental notice and/or parental consent, maintain the current ban on partial birth abortions, permit civil unions and/or same sex marriage, renew the federal assault weapon ban, permit concealed carry and much, much more.

*********************************
Partial Birth abortion bans:
Jeff Berkowitz: …Are there any abortions that aren’t permitted under the current law?
Mayor Kevin Burns (R-Geneva), 14th CD Republican Primary candidate: Well, certainly partial birth abortions.
Jeff Berkowitz: That [congressional ban] has been upheld [by the U. S. Supreme Court].
Mayor Kevin Burns: Absolutely.
Jeff Berkowitz: And, that had an exception for the life of the mother, but not for the health of the mother. Are you okay with that?
What does it mean to be pro-Life?
Mayor Kevin Burns: You know, I am pro-Life.
Jeff Berkowitz: You’re Pro-Life?
Mayor Kevin Burns: Absolutely.
Jeff Berkowitz: And, that means individually, you are pro-Life?
Mayor Kevin Burns: Clearly.
Jeff Berkowitz: You and your wife would probably not choose to have an abortion.
Mayor Kevin Burns: That means that I came to that decision through reflective thinking of my own and I have every respect for everyone else who perhaps has a different opinion.
Jeff Berkowitz: But, you are not pro-Life in the sense that you would like to see Roe v. Wade overturned so other people who disagree with you could not go ahead and get an abortion. You don’t want to make abortion illegal, do you?
Mayor Kevin Burns: I don’t want Kevin Burns’ decisions to impinge the rights of others to make their own and as a congressperson I most likely will not have that opportunity.
Jeff Berkowitz: Well, right, that’s probably a judicial decision, but you would have some impact on that—as when the partial birth abortion ban was passed by the Congress.
Mayor Kevin Burns: Right.
Parental Notice.
Jeff Berkowitz: Parental notice. Would you favor parental notice?
Mayor Kevin Burns: I do favor parental notice.
Parental Consent.
Jeff Berkowitz: Parental consent. You favor that, too? Parents have to give consent before their minor daughter can have an abortion?
Mayor Kevin Burns: You know, it’s a case by case example. I think parental consent, flat out—you have some challenges to it.
Judicial bypass.
Jeff Berkowitz: [But], with judicial bypass,
Mayor Kevin Burns: Perhaps.
Jeff Berkowitz: The daughter can go to the judge, if there is a case of incest, rape, something like that—
Mayor Kevin Burns: And, it’s a bad family life—I mean, what are we doing to the child?
