Narses, posts like this are why you and your zealot buds are 1. not trustworthy as members of the conservative movement, and 2. fairweather friends at BEST. I refer to this, and other statements like it:

"For many of us, the major difference between the parties has been LIFE and related moral issues. Betray us and we will bolt. No stock dividen exclusion, no tax break comes close to LIFE as an issue. Either accept that or test it. But let me assure you, you 'test it' at the peril of governance."

That says to ME and many others that you'd vote for a comitted socialist who advocated a total ban on abortion for any reason. You'd willingly and gladly sacrifice not only the Republican majorities, but our overall liberty as Americans to boot to service your one-issue obsessions. You'd vote for the Hildebeast tomorrow if she parroted your party lines sincerely enough for long enough.

In two recent elections closely followed on FR, I watched the extreme prolifers ride candidates they considered "perfect" to devastating defeat...the California recall election (McLintock) and Illinois (Keyes). Because of them, we gave up that illinois Senate seat without even a real fight. And no, the voters didn't lose that one...the maniacal Keyes did. He, that is, and his shrill, strident supporters who likened any dissent to an attack by Satan himself.

If all the Right gets from you guys is threats, whining, and shifting alliegences based on ONE issue (and I thought the gun folks I run with were strict! At least the NRA has mastered the art of politics to the point where they GET something) then why should we ever put any trust at all in you, or give you some kind of power to affect policy?

Given your highly flexible "loyalty", you've a LOT of cojones making demands. The GOP would be crazy to expect you to keep up your end, especially when you've expressly said you won't.

You asserted, "That says to ME and many others that you'd vote for a comitted socialist who advocated a total ban on abortion for any reason." If that's how you chose to misread the very clear comment of 'failure to follow through will net lost votes for the Pubbies', then you are more of a maroon than I had thought. Nice try though to 'put words and intentions' on Narse that you could fire at with impunity. [BTW, isn't what you tried something like constructing a strawman? Bwahahaha]

LOL, what 'demands'? Either the GOP is honest or it isn't. If it isn't, why would you embrace it? I certainly won't. As for the rest of your illogival rant, like your math, it is suspect.
