Murdering somebody now qualifies as carrying out their "end-of-life plan"?
I know he... isn't a socialist
Smerconish is either a bold liar or he has no idea what socialism is.
I heard him go on and on several times about obama before the election...I’m sure he voted for him. I’ve been meaning to call his show the next time I’m in Philly just to askk him what obama’s ass tasted like since he had his lips all over it for so long.
He was a solid Republican, just like Arianna Huffington. Uh-huh.
Having seen so many lying liberals on other forums, who begin what they write with variations of, “I used to be a conservative Republican, but...”, and then go on to embrace abortion, anti-Iraq war, socialized medicine, high taxes, environmental wacko-ism, etc., I’ve come up with two simple responses.
Either I do it right back at them, writing “I used to be a liberal Democrat, but...”, and then fully embrace conservative doctrines.
Or else I say the reason I am now a liberal Democrat is because I have become a racist, antisemitic, socialist anti-American, who wants to see America reduced to a 4th world poverty stricken hell hole, and this is what liberal Democrats want, too.
Unfortunately, I have gotten responses telling me to “Shhh!”, that I can’t openly say that, that I have to lie and say I am a conservative.
This I find deeply disturbing.
ROTFLOL
Exactly. If it ISN'T, then it's just another medical procedure, and there should be no more regulation of it than a tonsillectomy. But if it isn't murder, then why do so many pro-abort pols (like Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, etc.) say that they "personally oppose" it or think it's "wrong" or "tragic"? What's tragic about having some tissue removed?
I had this clown’s number when he endorsed ObaMAO.
This story was BS when it was posted yesterday. It is still BS.
I’m very familiar with this guy. He’s always been David Gergen Republican. Its a classic case of addition by subtraction. Buh Bye RINO!
Michael, Michael, Michael, do you have any core principles or are you just driven by the winds of moderation.
By quitting the GOP, I have actually joined the largest group of American voters.
Yes Michael, they are called fence sitters, folks that have to be led by the hand and cajoled into making principled decisions about candidates and their agendas, because they have very few principles themselves.
Since he was only
A “Token” Republican,
What will he do now?
Who will care about
The new Michael Smerconish
If he has no (R)?
He’s just another
Squishy independent punk,
Sellout to the donks.
Smerconish bought hook, line and sinker the laughable James Cameron documentary about Jesus’ tomb so it’s no surprise he still doesn’t know what to think about global warming” or that he thinks Obama is an “earnest, smart” man.
I’ll take Michael Smerconish at his word. I don’t doubt for a minute that he thinks there is a strict litmus test for being a Republican. Of course, he’s completely wrong, but I don’t doubt he believes what he writes.
The only “litmus” test I know of (and we’re still in the process of actually starting to apply it) is a belief in constitutional principles. Yeah, if you want gay marriage, nationalized health care, immigration amnesty, and a slew of other big government, socialistic programs, you might just feel a bit uncomfortable (I hope) in the Republican Party. We can only hope!
“I think that in 2008, the GOP was wrong to adopt a party platform that maintained a strict opposition to abortion without at least carving out exceptions in the case of rape, incest, or danger to the mother’s life. I was appalled that legislators tried to decide Terri Schiavo’s end-of-life plan. I don’t care if two guys hook up any more than they should care about my heterosexual lifestyle. And I still don’t know what to think about climate change.
I think President Obama is earnest, smart, and much more centrist than his tea party caricature suggests. He has never been given a fair chance to succeed by those who openly crow about their desire to see him fail (while somehow congratulating one another on their relative patriotism). I know he was born in America, isn’t a socialist, and doesn’t worship in a mosque. I get that he inherited a minefield. Still, the level of federal spending concerns me. And he never closed the deal with me that health insurance is a right, not a privilege. But I’m not folding the tent on him. Not now. Not with the nation fighting two wars while its economy still teeters on the brink of collapse.”
With the above core beliefs, this mediot wants to convince us that he was a conservative republican.
Adios MoFo.
SmerCONish was never a conservative. If he ever was it was a fleeting daliance.
I’m glad RINO scum like this are out of our Party.
Fitting that he ends his opus with:
“Those are Bayh’s words, not mine. But he was speaking for both of us.”
LMAO....he ends with a quote from a Democrat.
Very fitting.
Sorry Smerky, but you’re on the wrong side. Anyone who remains aligned with obama and his administration is going to regret it. By the time he’s done he will have taken many a career down with him.
Nice Opus Francis.
The old liberal vs. conservative and Democrat vs. Republican models are fading and fast being replaced by a progressive vs. libertarian one. This should benefit us in the long run as long as we continue to teach the Constitution and Bill Of Rights.
Yes, exactly like Kathleen Parker! Another fake Republican.
