"There is air in the mothers blood stream so yes, a baby breathes. Just because they don't breath still doesn't mean anything!"
First you said a baby breathes just like you and me. Then you say they don't breathe. Who are you, john kerry???
1. A fetus IS a living thing.
2. Your statement that they breathe "just like you and me" is absurd. Try that in any public debate with one of the pro-choice crowd and you'll be laughed off the stage.
Ultimately, this has nothing to do with how a baby breathes. The issue here is that your chosen candidate is a hypocrite who is supposedly running as a constitution candidate for president yet proposes violating the constitution as one of his first acts!

Ultimately, this has nothing to do with the mechanics of how a fetus gets oxygen. The issue here is that your chosen candidate is a hypocrite who is supposedly running as a constitution candidate for president yet proposes violating the constitution as one of his first acts!
wow - database lag...the first reply wasn't there for a few minutes and then it was!
The governments job is to protect the people! Maybe the baby doesn't breath like you and me, but there is air in the mother's blood flow! You think you know everything, who are you Dan Rather, huh?
You don't have a clue as to what the constitution and bill of rights do, do you?
I'm smart enough to know the governmen's number one job is protecting the people that live in the country.
I hope you don't call your self a coservative.
"I hope you don't call your self a coservative."
I don't think anyone here calls themselves a coservative.
Either you are a troll, or you are one of the most constitutionally ignorant people outside of your presidential candidate!
So then your a liberal(or leftist)
what are you, 12? You can't spell, you don't know how a fetus 'breathes', you have no clue as to what the constitution and bill of rights does and doesn't do, and you engage in the most unoriginal, childish name calling!
Are you related to the candidate???? You make as much sense as he does.
Oh, dear. I think you want the philosophy department...
And your better
You miss the point of government. It's main point is to protect the people, not kill them.
you miss the point of the constitution. Which is odd, since you support a reported 'constitutionist' for president.
The purpose of the constitution and bill of rights is to enumerate and limit the powers of government. There is nothing in either document to give them the power to stop states from outlawing abortion (why roe v wade is flawed) OR to enable them to prohibit abortion with anything short of a consitutional amendment.
Your joke of a candidate says he can do it via EO and a creative interpretation of the 5th amendment - which is inherently flawed, because THE FIFTH AMENDMENT APPLIES TO THE POWER OF THE GOVERNMENT, NOT PRIVATE CITIZENS!!!!
Read that again: The thing he cites as giving him power to stop all abortions via EO gives him no such power! It's actually in reverse - it limits his power!!!
Do you actually understand that, or are you going to spout the same "the job of the government is to protect people" line again and again????
Why do you like killing innocent people who have never even done anything to you!
okay, that's it. You're a troll. Nobody can be this dense.
A fetus (unborn baby) is a human being, not a thing.
And you Mr Walk need to get your head on straight and vote for the most pro life President this nation has ever had, George W. Bush.
That's why I vote absentee. Well, that and I don't have to smell the BO from some people at the polling place. Probably DemocRATS, to be sure.
