I agree. There have been surprises. Lannie Davis, Mayor Daley, David Bois. I was able to turn four people around just today, four who were tsk tsking over the evil Bush people interfering in a private matter. I was very low key, said little but converted four. It is amazing. Most people are fair and can underestand this issue. Even virulent Bush haters {everyone I work with}
Add Jesse Jackson to your list of "amazing". He was
on Dan Abrams tonite taking Terri's side.
That is what bothers me a great deal. I am angry that as a society we have gone so low as to be prejudiced toward death, but I still cannot bring myself to believe if given the Truth we would as a majority choose Death. The MSM has played on their ignorance, and if we had time, we could make the truth heard. The MSM is not all powerful but with so little time they have the advantage.
neither has this been a split partyline divide. It cross boundaries. Liberals and conservatives have joined up on both sides. It's only among our elected Reps we discern the divide, as clearly the overwhelming majority of Reps supported Life while the Dems were split.
Daley probably surprises me the least. While Daley is a Lib, his son recently joined the military and they supported him rather than ostracized him for doing so. Some Libs HAVE turned on their children for doing so. I'm coming to view Daley in a favorable light as a human being as result of his recent statements and his treatment of his son.
