Potential Republican Crack-Up

[Monkey Face]

There I was, browsing the news, and you swooped in and...say...when I was pregnant, my luck was "unconscious" and I won no matter what I played. Are you that way? I mean, besides today?

;o]

[Dead Corpse]

Eh... you know how it goes...

Well, I did get a couple thousands in a row before the UT got so slow.

The impending divisions in the Republican party won't be "moderate" vs. "conservative". It will be "evangelical conservative" vs. "non evangelical conservative". The issues that cause the breach won't be abortion, the death penalty, gay marriage or affirmative action. Instead the divisions will be caused over: (1) stem cell research, (2) evolution and (3) the Terri Schiavo case.

****************

I disagree. I'm Catholic, yet my position on the above is more in line with the evangelical conservatives than it is with you.

Actually, the division that has been occurring is within the Demonrat party between the Godless Leftists and everyone else (who are now voting Republican in reliable numbers). LOL!

You can tell this person isn't a conservative.

1. The conflict is not about "stem cell research." We have stem cell research, and valuable therapies are being developed using stem cells from umbilical cords, bone marrow, and other non-embryonic stem cells. The conflict is about Federal government funding of embryonic stem cell research. This research has yet to produce useful results - which is probably one reason that private investors are not interested in funding it. Irrespective of other issues involving ESCR, to a conservative, it's obvious that the Constitution does not give the Federal government authority to fund ANY medical research.

2. Evolution. Conservatives favor school choice, including state-funded and privately-funded vouchers, and tax credits to parents. If we had a free market in education, the question of instruction in ANY subject would be addressed by that free market, not by the government.

3. End-of-life issues. These cases should be addressed at the state level, with detailed legislation to remove discretion from the courts.

Anyone who chooses to vote Democrat on the basis that Republicans are against scientific progress is a very narrow-minded idiot. Creationists are ignorant, true, but environmentalists have done far, far, far, far, far, far, far more damage to scientific progress. They've done so much damage, I consider them the only ideological group worse than Islamic terrorists.

If you're not yourself later on when you get on, you won't be able to tell.

But we'll know, and we'll let you know -- as soon as we can find you!

"Blapnorp gingamorph?
Klatta gringarck? "

Bob checks message -- no typos. Not from Darksheare.

Waiting for legitimate Darkshearian message.

[Tax-chick]

I think he misspelled "gringarrck."

[mware]

Blapnorp gingamorph? Klatta gringarck?

Say what??????

[Monkey Face]

Whoa! You must have had your eyes dilated! LOL!

(I mean, poor baby!)

[mware]

Run across any trolls today????

Klatta

I do recognize that word from Michael Rennie in The Day The Earth Stood Still.

[Darksheare]

Owrk!
;-)

I discovered that my vision is.. well.. HORRIFIC!
So my frames are sitting at the eyeball shop, and I'm wearing my old military BC frames.

My cat finds me terrifying at the moment.

[Darksheare]

I think those were the letter on the eye charts.

[Darksheare]

Dry, itchy, and now behind my old BC frames.
