I will note this. The environazis in the party are making headway:

At the same time, the party weighed an energy policy acknowledging the human imprint on climate change.

“GOP takes a hard line on abortion for its platform”

This is a good thing and hopefully indicates a strong VP pick is in the offing.

I agree that the environmental cave-ins are disappointing, but the most valuable stand we can take for eternity’s sake is in defense of the unborn. The contrast between Dem and Pub platforms should be striking in that regard.

If by "strong stand" they mean being against stabbing an unborn child in the head with a pair of scissors and sucking it's brains out, then “yeah!”, we took a strong stand!

Good for us!!

Too funny!
Does AP consider the Dems to take a "hard-line" on abortion (refusing any limitations on it)? Or is "hard-line", and its connotation, reserved solely for Repubs?

Intelligent people want to know, AP!

I still think that a good strategy on abortion would be to get out in front of the argument and work back.

1. Put a resolution up in Congress stating that killing a five day old infant is wrong. See how the Dhims vote. Do not tell the Dhims what you have in plan.

2. Keep putting up the same resolution subtracting one day from the infants life each time until you get to birth. Some Dhims (like Obama) will vote negative at this point.

3. Then put up a bill to make third term abortions illegal.

4. After the Dhims have voted against it, run an add campaign to shame them. “Does a baby really magically become human only after birth?”

Additionally, the Republicans should put up a resolution confirming the need to protect the eggs of all protected bird species based on the scientific fact that these embryos are obviously already a living member of their species. Or if they were really brave they would do the opposite and suggest a bill decriminalizing the destruction of such eggs based on an inability to reach a consensus about when life begins. After all, how can you say that an egg is an eagle, but human embryo is just a cell mass?
