Ah yes...sounds a lot like, "I'm for the troops, but against the war.".

It's pure leftist hypocrisy.

Or like being against Slavery (circa 1860) but for the right to have them.

Actually, Jimmy Carter's Great-Grandfather probably had the same position.

Wonder what side the Carter's fought on during the Civil War.

Exactly. Fence straddling 101.

It's actually very logical. You are just too biased to see it.

You can be for the gov't getting out of our lives although you can be against the thing you are asking the gov't to get out of.

Wouldn't religion fit that bill? I don't want the gov't mandating us all be Christians but I am a Christian. I'm for something I want the gov't out of.

I differ with Carter on one thing. I believe that the STATES have the personal freedom to decide whether or not abortion should be legal although I personally am very much against abortion.

That doesn't make me a hypocrit. I don't think the gov't should be legislating morality.

Unless of course you want to be killed the next time you sleep with your neighbor's wife.
