As I said in my previous post--one trick ponies are just that--they have one thing that they know and usually know it well. They can be trotted out on the appropriate occasion and be depended on to perform well.

So now you're calling opposition to a million dead children a year a one-trick-pony.

There are those of us who do see beyond the one tick ponies and recognize the need for safety and security of our citizens,

Unless they happen to be fetuses, and then they are one-trick-pony bait.

the protection against enemies foreign and domestic and defending our Constitution. These are primary concerns for me. I will leave it to others to argue the more social aspects of life.The question of whether a woman has an abortion is between her, her husband/partner, her religious belief and her physician.

You left out the fetus. I guess the fetus being a human life carries no weight in your moral calculus.

Since the right to an abortion is currently allowed, I will defend this right and will not have the temerity to fly in the face of the Constitution.

OH MY GOD. YOU JUST CALLED ABORTION A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT.

This was an error on my part, sorry. Thank-you for your polite, diplomatic correction.

The right to an abortion is currently the law. Whether you, I or the person down the street likes it, that is the law that our country has been left with. For those who do not like it they are welcome to peacefully protest the law--it is their right.

For myself and many others,at this time in the history of our country, there is a larger picture, one that contains safety and security. As in your vociferous defense of the unborn, to which you are entitled, I likewise am entitled to be concerned for the safety and security of our citizens, the defense of our borders and our Constitution. I never again want to see a disaster like 9-11 and will do all that I can to prevent it from happening.
