Doubt it. Bigger issues will be on the table. Immigration. Health care for the aged. Deficit spending. Education reform. IRS reform. Iraq...

For millions of voters, no issue is bigger than baby killing.

[Tempest]

I beat you think GWB isn't one of our own either and anyone to the left of Pat Buchanan is commie traitor...

[Badray]

Thanks for the ping.

[Badray]

"I beat you think GWB isn't one of our own either and anyone to the left of Pat Buchanan is commie traitor..."

Don't change the subject so soon.

Do you think Specter is one of 'our own'? Yes or no?

Is Santorum? Yes or no?

If you believe Santorum is, but Specter is not -- as many of us believe, then Santorum loses credibility by supporting a liberal RINO rat instead of the conservative challenger, Pat Toomey.

Santorum sold out his professed principles for the Party label and his personal advancement. If you think Ricky boy acted honorably, it's time for you to question your own honor.

[Tempest]

I think Rick acted to preserve the stability within the party unlike some people who like to chop of their head in order to prevent an infection from growing...

[Badray]

So is Santorum one or 'ours'?

Is Specter?

Please answer.

If you are a conservative, how can you not be angry with Santorum and not question his motives?

[nickcarraway]

I hope he isn't presenting himself for Holy Communion.

[nickcarraway]

Tort reform is dead. Specter promised that is a nonstarter. Sadly a lot of those issues are damaged, since Bush won't be able to get any judges.

I think some people would do anything for "PARTY POWER" rather than preserve their so-called principles. I am tired of standing under a "big tent" that leaks.

[Giant Conservative]

Is there any bigger issue than preventing the death of an innocent child?

[Giant Conservative]

"Big-tent" means "making pro-lifers go to the back of the bus".

Exactly. Well met, Mr. Antoninus.

I do not have a problem with the 1st tri-mester.
After all, nature probably aborts more in the 1st two months, or used to....

[EternalVigilance]

I do not have a problem with the 1st tri-mester.

So you majestically confer personhood on the babe at the start of the second trimester?

How 'godlike' of you!

[Prost1]

"So you majestically confer personhood on the babe at the start of the second trimester?"

I do no such thing. Nor do I deny a woman the right to choose. It is her body!

How righteous of you!
