Then stop belittling those who care deeply about the issue.
I'm going to point out the truth when those who care deeply about the issue choose not to. So shoot me.
This Gonzales issue is a perfect example. Without having the facts, some people have attacked Gonzales as being a pro-abortion person. It is not true, and demonstrates a willful attempt by some people to derail a possible nomination and also smear both Gonzales and the President.
Because of folks like this (and I am not talking about you), those of us who are pro-life but willing to function in the political realm of compromise are getting a bit exasperated. Here is an example: the partial birth abortion law only stops a certain number of abortions. I have seen people on threads who mock the President for supporting this law as "making an easy choice" and not "really being against abortion totally." The fact that it is a FIRST STEP apparently isn't enough for folks like that.
Dog Gone is exactly right. Those who are ONLY concerned about abortion (to the exclusion of national defense for example) are alienating potential allies and are causing resentment and division, when they instead should be trying to get as many allies as they can.
I don't know why some people behave this way, but it is why single-issue voters are beginning to annoy a lot of people.
Your statement to Dog Gone was not based on anything he said, but simply because you disagree with him on tactics. I think it was poorly done of you.
