I answered it jackass; your redirection is pathetic. I voted for the candidate who is a member of a church (even if you don’t think so) that opposes abortion and whom I believe would have attempted to further cut down legalized abortion availability. So yes, by voting for the only candidate who did not support abortion I am voting against abortion. I am not against it only on religious grounds although that is a consideration. I am against it specifically on scientific grounds. My science background tells me that life begins at conception and that from a single fertilized egg to the baby about to be born; that is a living human being and it is not moral for it to be killed by way of abortion, it is murder. Does that answer your pathetic attempt to set aside the clear argument that by not voting for the candidate opposing obama, you helped reelect the abortion supporting dictator.
I spent a career sworn to support and defend the Constitution and I hold that oath to be applicable today even though I retired from the military almost 20 years ago. I hold the Constitution to be dear and will vote for the republican candidate over the Constitution-killing despot each and every time it is necessary. I will do anything necessary to preserve our Republic even one more day. You can’t get past your petty prejudices to at least try by way of actually voting.
The time for “voting your conscience” is appropriate is when you vote for the primary candidate. In that selection you can make a difference. Romney was far from my choice but in the general election he was a light-years better choice than obama. I at least voted to try to oust the kenyan while your non-vote put him one point closer to his victory.
Throwing your non-voting support to obama is exactly what they were hoping for in demonizing Romney; you and many like you who sat out the election fulfilled the democrat party hopes. Seems that the term liberal supporter applies to you and your non-voting compatriots.
Don't try to confuse Norm with genuine principles or facts, he might start crying...........
(a) Do you realize that THE reason why Roe vs. Wade is considered "abortion on demand" is because it includes a "health" of the mother exception -- which is defined as "anything"...even "family health"? "Economic health"?
(b) Do you realize that Romney told CBS News last August:Romney: My views on abortion rights are clear
"My position has been clear throughout this campaign," Romney said. "I'm in favor of abortion being legal in the case of rape and incest, and the health and life of the mother."
So, apparently you're "a-ok" voting for POTUS candidates who favor killing off most of the eligible pre-born...just not all of em, eh?
I voted for the candidate who is a member of a church (even if you dont think so) that opposes abortion...
What a ridiculous statement! The Mormon church (right now) opposes same-sex "marriage" .... Yet GoP prez candidate Jon Huntsman has now come out in support of that! (See Jon Huntsman, a conservative & a Mormon, says legalizing same-sex marriage is...right thing to do)
Why would you automatically somehow equate a candidate's position on abortion as somehow equivalent to their church's position, especially given the propensity of MANY Catholic office-holders to be solidly pro-abortion...
You sound like an utter political noob!
What candidate did you vote for then? If you are speaking of Romney, you would be wrong. If not then who?
