Why is it that 99% of those who favor abortion are opposed to the death penalty?

Because those folks are morally confused. They have no problem with killing off the "little piggies," to quote Tereza Kerry. But they realize that, being morally facile, they might find themselves behind the eight-ball in such a criminal conviction and sentencing. Thusly, the life they clamor for might someday be their own.

Obversely, there are those 99% opposed to abortion who also favor the death penalty. Their logic? Criminals deserving of the death penalty had their chance at life and blew it; the aborted unborn never had the chance...(nutshell analysis).

This approach can be expounded on for paragraphs, but you get the idea.

The Democratic Party is owned by the abortion lobby, the trial lawyers and the NEA -- and now it is being redecorated by the homosexual lobby. It has become a pathetic charicature of a charicature, like a bad sitcom. Governor Casey was not allowed to speak at their '92 convention because his views were not 100% in line with the views of the big money donors. I get so tired of how they preach "tolerance" when they do not tolerate dissent or even critical thinking in their own ranks.

"Morally confused" is putting it kindly..My question was posed rhetorically, to point out the obvious..but you did a far better job than I..

California's Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein warns cluelessly that gay marriage was pushed too fast...

NOOOOooooo gay marriage WAS pushing it too far, and will stay that way! We are not going to be desensitized, and we want this indoctrination of our children stopped!!!

Speaking of desensitizing, is there anything that can be done about this injection of the gay agenda into TV shows? Boycotting them hasn't worked so far.

I don't know. I think Ralph Nees and the NOW groups are the worst tumor.

How are gays portrayed on TV? They're cast as clowns, and have been ever since the inception of TV. Remember Uncle Miltie dressed up in drag? How about Flip Wilson and his Geraldine character? America roared with laughter. Then Ellen Degeneres tried to turn her comedy show into a lesbo soap opera and her show and career nose dived.

That's why boycotting doesn't work--Americans have and will laugh at homos.

Because it's ok to kill an undefined tissue mass (read baby in the birth canal) because that's innocent life, but it's not ok to kill a murdering scumbag (read potential or probable Democrat voter.)

Until the dems get rid of the Clintons .. there will not be any change.

Within hours, Carville had changed his stance from one of the dems need to change .. to his usual over the top statements.

I guess it's a matter of when will the "real" dems step up to the plate.

They don't believe in the death penalty because it assumes that the State may actually condemn a human to death for monstrous crimes. How dare the State presume guilt, when there are nuances and shades of gray to filter out and analyze? Abortion is fine, because it undermines the moral order and allows poor people access to the same unspeakable sins as the rich. Forgive my cynicism today.

"The biggest tumor the Dems have is Michael Moore"

Yep, and he has done so much to help the conservatives that I'm beginning to think that he is an undercover agent for the GOP.

You're right. I'm just amazed that gays don't throw hissy fits at the way they are portrayed on network TV. Will and Grace? I asked a good friend of mine, a gay man, why the gay community would celebrate such repulsive stereotypes. His response was that just having a TV show about gays was enough, that there was a time you couldn't even say it and the movies that did come out where just horrible, like that stupid one with Al Pacino. I still don't get it. I do, however, have to tell you that I do watch Will & Grace, it's a funny adult comedy, although after watching it I always think to myself that this is not a good show for Gay people. It depicts gays as self-absorbed, sex-addicts who think of nothing but superficial and material things (and, of course, sex.)

One day I made the mistake of poking fun at those neanderthal Catholic views on abortion.
