And I'm sure you're very pleased that 48 million dead babies will become 49 million, 50 million, 51 million. WHEN DOES IT STOP?
Red Cats will scratch them to pieces.
Ivan, may I ask what was England's general reaction to our election?
Until then,I predict most of these guys become Nancy and Hillary's cabana boys.
Regards, Ivan
Only dem I ever voted for was Sam Nunn and at the time he seemed to be a real conservative. He unfortunately got the idea to explore a run for president and pro-life isn't a winner on the national scene for a dem so he "moderated" his stance. I have never voted for a dem since.
I don't know what DC does to people, there must be something in the water. The Episcopal priest at my parish when I was growing up was really conservative. He went to St. Alban's on the HIll, parish church for the National Cathedral and we don't even know him these days. He is writing the same sex marriage vow service for use when they are finally adopted.
DC is poison to the conservative mind. So few seem to survive.
VoteYesForLife put in $2.1 million (incl. the $300 I gave), WITHOUT the President's support, WITHOUT the support of the National Right to Life Committee.
The bill would have made it to the Supreme Court, satisfied the condition laid out in Roe vs. Wade Section IX Paragraph A, and ultimately overturned the most ghastly court ruling in human history:
A. The appellee and certain amici argue that the fetus is a "person" within the language and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment. In support of this, they outline at length and in detail the well-known facts of fetal development. If this suggestion of personhood is established, the appellant's case, of course, collapses, [410 U.S. 113, 157] for the fetus' right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the Amendment. The appellant conceded as much on reargument. 51 On the other hand, the appellee conceded on reargument 52 that no case could be cited that holds that a fetus is a person within the meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment
That some, like you, to justify past actions must live in a fantasy world in which the baby magically "poofs" into personhood at some arbitrary point in its well-underway development is not good cause to continue the most brutal act imaginable upon the largest single victim group in human history (yes, we have overcome Hitler's deathcount, Stalin's deathcount, and Mao's).
The defeat of a referrendum backed by a $2.1M group by a $8M group does not indicate we are a pro-abortion nation. It indicates we are a blissfully ignorant nation that can be bought.
Ultimately, it's people who fill in the ballot. I respect your beliefs. What I'm saying is that the majority of people in this country don't agree with them.
Just SOP.
Back in the day the Democrats were the slave owners, because of the MSM and gubmint skoolz the sheeple will argue this fact.
They'd be crazy to give up that power by doing Pelosi's bidding in lockstep against the wishes of the socially conservative constituencies in their districts that put them in office based on their campaigns as conservatives.
If they're the least bit smart, we're going to see real some horsetrading across the aisle from them, just like the pubs saw from Chafee et al. That 'in name only' burr's in the other team's saddle & it's a heck of a lot bigger now, lol!
If you are correct, of course, then this country is toast.
They will be stuck between the proverbial rock and hard place when they have to vote on the issues. How can they balance loyalty to the dem party with loyalty to those who elected them. This could be amusing....in a sardonic sort of way.
Gene Taylor, the Mississippi Democrat, is agruable the best of the Blue Dog lot. Colin Peterson of Minnesota is another one I know to be generally decent like Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska.
The Republicans have a large enough minority in the house they could insist on leadership positions for Blue Dog Democrats like Jane Harmon of California who, while not exactly conservative, could be trusted with the chairmanship of the House Intelligence Committee unlike the impeached disgraced (bribery and malfeasence) former federal judge A. Hastings of Florida who is due to get the position under a Pelosi speakership.
There are more than enough Blue Dog Democrats to chair every house committee of national security importance, or even every committee, including Speaker of the House if the Republicans had the balls to approach them and the Blue Dogs had the balls to buck their radical left leadership. Ain't gonna happen, though-- although the 40 or so Blue Dogs are far more than the number of Republican house seats lost.
Look for him to marry before he runs again and have at least 1 kid...for the photo ops.
I totally agree. Also, Raul Emanuel is not a "centrist". He is leftist Clinton Rat. These so called "blue dogs" in the House will be disciplined by lady Pulosi herself into voting as she tells them or they get no committee appointments, no social place at beltway events and no help from the Rats when they run again.
I have to bitterly disagree with your characterization. You're sugar coating how bad they really are.
