“If you want to understand the issue...I would be glad to explain. If you want to rant and put down without any understanding ...then have a good day”

No thanks. The problem for you is that I do understand the “issue.”

50 million dead babies and your guy FRED thinks we should get rid of the party platform, and showed no interest in ending this genocide while he was in office.

He has shown no interest in ending the slaughter of the innocents since he left office.

Now that it’s campaign time, I am supposed to believe he’s been rock-solid all along.

Excuse me while I gag.

Thank you for proving what little understanding you possess.
And thats your problem. I have no problem.
In your own words your candidate promoted the amendment for what? 10 years???
Then by your own words you cite numbers. That ten years did alot of good huh?
You have no understanding of Freds position. That is obvious..nor do you want to know.
You gotta love it when people insist they know things they readily show that they do not.
Now ...have a great day.

As usual, no refutation of facts from Fred-heads.

Just more fluffy verbiage.

I have always loved you;) LOL!
Thanks so much - sorry for the delayed response - a neighbor came by with carrot cake.

I think this is why some people find Huckabeest appealing.
Subliminals;)

Ummm, a few years ago, Spacey was beaten up in a London park in the early morning hours while out gay cruising. I don’t think Huck’s supporters will find that very appealing.

I had no idea Spacey was..well...spacey;)

Was relating to his movie roles...and transference.

All quite psychobabbilicious.

Carry on;)

I think Mr. Romney just wanted to shake Fred’s hand, in an attempt to make friendship with Fred, so possibly Fred wouldn’t tear him a new one.

Thompson did not utter a discouraging word about McCain.

BS! You don't know what you are talking about.

You ought to read the ones I did on John Kerry... ‘Twas back when he made public sport of Vitter’s peccadilloes. I enjoy slaying these hypocritical clowns with my trusted double-edged pen. Here’s the replay:

There once was a man named Kerry,
With liberal ideas quite scary,
When placing a vote… in Congress we note,
His word, ‘twas often contrary.

There once was a man of the Bay,
Whose moniker was J.F.K.,
While lounging in ‘Nam’,
From V.C. he ran,
Claimed later: “I saved the day.”

There once was a skunk from Cape Cod,
Whose hallmark was libel and fraud,
When making a joke ‘bout military folk,
The media gave him a nod.

There once lived a cad named Kerry,
Who’s humor often fell dreary,
While telling a joke,
On one foot he’d choke,
With the other he’d limp home to Teri.

There once was a Dem named John,
Whose words oft changed with the dawn,
Could never be trusted
By Swift Vets was busted,
And now he’s just tagging along.

There once was a pol from France,
Whose excretions were so far advanced’
While joking of others’ misdeeds in the gutters,
He laughed till he soiled his own pants.

There once lived a Frenchman named Kerr,
Whose pleasure was bad commenter,
While spinning a word… of limerick unheard,
Fell flat on his dull derrière.

There once was a gigolo from France,
With noble estate so advanced,
While mining the gutter… to slander another,
But never his faults would he glance.

There once was a Kike named Kerry,
Whose scruples were not kosher very,
While dining on pork… in Congress with fork,
His meat was a Hun named Teri.

Remember bad times of old?
When rough cowpolk searched slyly for gold?
Wild rivers they’d pan, scoopin’ up sand,
Searching Eldorado’s load...
But today the legend forgot,
Plays out in political rot,
By tactless old brutes in Aberdeen suits,
Chasing old women for what?...
An example to serve all the weary,
A grouchy old wretch rather airy,
For gold he would lay a hog in the hay,
‘Tis none other than John effing Kerry.

FOR THE COURTS. WILL NOT TRY TO SAVE PERSON FROM STARVATION-DEHYDRATION:

If you watched the debates, they made their positions known in the debates that the courts should decide which means they aren't saving anybody... I can't go back and give you debate links. Anti-euthanasia freepers have been watching their stands since day one. It's McCain, Huckabee, Giuliani and Paul. They trust the courts which means they do not believe in the concept of cks and balances i.e. the executive authority of the POTUS.

Thompson was with those guys but Thompson wised up after he got the NRTL endorsement and decided he better be pro-life all the way.

There is not one specific link unless as I pointed out, you check the early debate threads. Try those.

Who are you concerned about? If you narrow down which candidate you are most concerned about, send me private freepmail and we'll address it that way. (I have pinged my cohorts who can verify if they'd like to but it's the weekend and they may not be around. I don't request them to give proof or a link unless it's at their convenience.

Or, you could google Jill Stanek’s blog. She’s been following the candidates to re: euthanasia. She’s a pro-life pundit. You can probably email her from her blog.

Oh, I understand the south, alright. I LIVE in the south.

Thompson was following the instructions of his handlers. I flat-out don’t like that.

Sorry for the strong words.

Fred did criticize McCain and McCain's illegal immigration bill in the debate. Check the transcript.

The moderator said on live TV, "We are here in South Carolina, and now 'here are the candidates'."

I personally think this could be violation of election law, and certainly unethical, because, Congressman HUNTER who already had delegates, is officially on the ballot there and campaigning, as a legal candidate, regardless of the polls, and FOX said "here are the candidates".

This is NOT a small point. In fact it is a lie.

They must have a disclaimer in the future, if they pull this exclusionary behavior, and say "some of the candidates on this ballot for President are here tonight", or "here are some of the candidates".

What gives them the right to say, as in New Hampshire, "let's now bring the Democrat and Republican candidates together, because one of them on this stage here tonight will be the President next year". They actually said that when others were on the ballot as well and the people of New Hampshire and other states had not yet spoken.

I think this is a serious issue.

And the establishment thinks they can come to us in late October and whine and ask that we buy in to their two party charade after this treatment. They have a lot of nerve as well as another think coming.

Personally, I don't think we should regulate speech by making such an error a violation of the law.
