"The GOP is going to deliver and spend the capital that "we" gave them to do it, that's what..."

Yes, "we" being all the voters, the vast majority of whom did not elect them to pursue a single issue.

Like our government, it is only the combined strength of the individual human beings

You're exactly right; and how would you like it if 50 million of us tried to tell you to shut up?

"All men are created equal, with certain unalienable rights."

Hyperbole does not change the fact that life begins at fertilization/conception. The single celled zygote is a human being and has the right not to be killed by the actions of another human being.

Your actions, in support of abortion, are all that matter.

Yet another accusation that can't be backed up with actual proof.

But carry on.

State another position then, if not "in support of abortion."

Ah, that old lying liberal Republican canard: "single issue"...the feeble attempt to marginalize pro-lifers.

So once again I will state the actual fact: Most all pro-lifers care deeply about the broad range of issues that face the republic. They just happen to be wise enough to understand that the protection of innocent human life is the first and primary role of government.

So that's the kind of movement you aspire to? Forgotten in two elections and elect a liberal President.

Now that advances your cause!

I've been reading your posts for years. I know what you're about, and if you don't like the impression you've given, then stop treating pro-lifers like lepers.

Which is why most of them would not surrender their votes to a single issue party with no chance of winning.

I don't have to. That's the way this forum runs, in case you don't notice.

But you nor anyone else can find any post where I supported abortion in the six years I've been here.

Then you have a comprehension problem; and I'm not treating pro-lifers like lepers; I'm simply pointing out that there is a faction here who continues to threaten the GOP with their votes. It sucks.

Nice try. The vast majority of American pro-lifers 'surrendered their vote' to the pro-life party, the GOP.

And you act surprised when they expect those they have labored so hard for to stand up for what's right?

Strange logic y'all adhere to...

Q: If there were a vacancy in the Supreme Court and you had the opportunity to fill that position today, who would you choose and why?

A: I would pick somebody who would not allow their personal opinion to get in the way of the law. I would pick somebody who would strictly interpret the Constitution of the US. I wouldn't pick a judge who said that the Pledge of Allegiance couldn't be said in a school because it had the words "under God" in it. That's an example of a judge allowing personal opinion to enter into the decision-making process as opposed to strict interpretation of the Constitution. Another example would be the Dred Scott case, which is where judges years ago said that the Constitution allowed slavery because of personal property rights. That's a personal opinion; that's not what the Constitution says. So I would pick people that would be strict constructionists. Judges interpret the Constitution. No litmus tests except for how they interpret the Constitution.

A "personal property rights" case. (MY body, MY body, MY body!) Interesting choice of cases to bring up on the heels of an abortion question.

For him to bring up Roe v Wade would've been political suicide in this context, and he knew it, which is why he brought up the slavery case in its stead. Because until more people are educated ON abortion and its ramifications... he cannot come out and state "Yes my goal in promoting a culture of life is to overturn Roe v Wade". He would lose those voters who are on that rickety fence with "Well I wouldn't have one, but I won't stop someone else from having one."

The only way that I see to change hearts and minds on abortion is to educate people on the Value of Life.

Not according to you. You said that they are concerned about a wide range of issues.

Unborn life is of primary importance to me. That's why I choose between the most electable candidates which one is most pro-life. I vote for that candidate.

In the last election in was Bush. So I voted Bush. Unborn life is too important to be messing around with an unelectable candidate.

I almost thought us Jesus Freak Conservatives should've stayed home in MN to work more when I saw we lost by 3 pts to the RATs in MN - but then, all the efforts towards John Thune's campaign made it all worth it in the final wash...praise God. Bye-bye Tommy!!! was worth it!!

Now, let's see what the GOP leadership has going this week, eh?

God bless you all, including you pathetic RATS and RINOS that cling to your Culture of Death and insanity...

:o

...and for those of you lurking out there that the government calls "African-American" - for my black FRiends out there - the murdered babies are... by highest percentage of government population statistics within segments in society...BLACK BABIES.

Abortion is the new slavery - did America trade one for the other?

Please, Lord, help the blind to see!

O&O



:D
