Slap yourself and get a grip on reality, your hystrionics are embarrassing. You try to seriously claim the GOP is going to drop its pro-life stance, but you completely forget that only a few weeks ago a PBA ban was FINALLY passed, because we finally got a GOP controlled House and Senate. My what short memories. Let one thing go wrong, and all of a sudden the "what have you done for me in the last second" whiners come pouring out of the woodwork.

"Manna, manna, all we have is manna. Why were brought into the wilderness to die? Was it better for us to continue to suffer in Egypt?"

But hey, just go flying off the handle with ya'll's emotions, maybe ya'll can build a 3rd party golden calf.

Slap your ownself. That so called partial birth abortion ban won't save one baby. It might not even slow down the baby parts industry. It was so narrow that it merely specified how much of the baby had to be out of the womb before a PBA could be performed. they now have to kill it before any of the head is exposed, they can still pull the baby out to the neck, then reach in and suck the brains out.

The ban is a fraud.....and so is the GOP as a pro-life party.

The GOP pro-life stance has been on thin ice for some time.

Actually, it is frustrating when the GOP "leaders" won't stand up to the dems and go toe to toe with them on any number of issues. Entitlements, taxes, judicial appointments, whatever. A little verbal jousting would be good for public discourse, IMO.

The reason I generally vote GOP is that, unless the outcome is assured one way or the other, I would rather have the party of better manners. Manners at least implies morality. And it's the best chance we have of effecting any sort of change.

It's been mentioned here - the fact that there are so many fence sitters in the SCOTUS is due in large part to a dem held senate. If it wasn't for that, Bork would have been on the court twice over.
