The Republicans only embrace contraception and divorce, so I guess that makes them the lesser of two evils?

How dare you. Go back to the rock from which you crawled.

Me, I have no trouble figuring out which side to be on in that struggle. How about you?

Mr. Silverback, you are a mensch. I hope to see you again on one of these threads. Until then, good night.

Who said the republicans embrace divorce?

Name one thing that they've done to discourage it.

I'm just trying to figure out where the good bishop stands.

You didn't answer the question. As for Doran, it's pretty clear where he stands. He stands against the party that is 100% behind killing 1.3 million kids a year.

Tell me, why do you expect the Grand Old Party to be the Grand Old 100% Vatican Compliant Party? What mandate is there for that? Can you cite church law or Scripture to back your view up?

As I said, "the lesser evil" is an expression for children in an election year where we may get Speaker Pelosi.

Tattle tale. Can you say Michael Schiavo? Do you see why I didn't want to start that up again? It was a Republican judge who did it. I'm sure more than one Republican has had their elderly relatives' feeding tubes yanked and I'm reasonably sure a few of them get abortions. Now let it be.

Awesome writing, and all of it truth. Dem and all their voters need to stop living in imaginary worlds of their own making. If you don't deal with reality, it will deal with you!

Hey N-S, imagine how you'd like this conversation:

Mr. Silverback: You know, it's sad that Non-Sequitur embraces crushing puppies with a sledgehammer.

Pissant: What? Who says he embraces that?

Mr. Silverback: Name one thing that N-S has done to discourage it.

Doesn't seem so terribley logical now, does it?

You made the accusation, sparky. It's up to you to provide evidence. Bring it or go home.

"The Republicans are culpable in killing, too, especially the disabled and elderly, and some of them are pro choice."


True enough, however, just as your other comments, none of it is part of the Republican party platform, unlike Dems.

"Well there is no doubt that many republicans have gotten divorces. Just as many Catholics and evangelicals and Mormons, etc. have. But I don't recall the GOP embracing feminist agenda or legislation that encourages divorce."


EXACTLY!

Any individual is capable of any evil thing, and many do not abide by their professed principles. That's just how it is.

But you have to go with the declared statement of a group or party. I don't know what would happen if the GOP dropped the pro-life plank; I'd probably vote for them because I think they're better on security and don't want to control my every waking moment, but my big moral commitment would be gone. That said, there's no Dem I have seen that I would vote for on any grounds.

Oh, poor innocent Aliska. She brings an accusation of murder against half the electorate, and then that evil Silverback dares to mention it. How horrible, he should be lynched immediately before he besmirches the virtue of other pure flowers.

Get a grip and grow up, princess.

Tattle tale.

I don't think this site should be littered with unfounded accusations of murder. Whine all you want.

Can you say Michael Schiavo? Do you see why I didn't want to start that up again?

Then why'd you post about it, you bloody twit?

It was a Republican judge who did it.

I'm sure there was an SS trooper or two who was nice to a Jew or two. That doesn't mean i'm giving the SS the Oskar Schindler Humanitarian Award. I'm sure more than one Republican has had their elderly relatives' feeding tubes yanked and I'm reasonably sure a few of them get abortions.

And I know Democrats who are in Vietnow and the VFW, but that doesn't make the Dems the party of national security, does it?

You are smearing the GOP with hypocritical things some few members have done that are the opposite of how almost all Republicans conduct themselves, and you do so in order to morally equate the GOP with a party that is 100% behind killing 1.3 million little kids each year. If you're going to moralize, try moralizing using a real moral compass, not some bizarro world ranting that calls a whole class of people murderers. Or better yet, go back to your home planet.

He'd be a dem, if he lived in an another area of the country where dems win judgeships.

The Republican platform is one thing, what many of them do once in office is another, not that I have any particular beef with that tonight other than that judge in Florida which I didn't want to bring up again.

If the Republicans drop the pro-life plank, I probably won't vote any more, and the Republicans are in big trouble come next election.

The sad thing is there is a local story I was just reading very similar but with profound differences, and the judge gave the parents guardianship rather than the husband. Whether he can appeal or not, I don't know.

Whatever. I'm not a whining little twit. And now I have someone calling me names. I never called him any names and shouldn't have posted without writing 100 paragraphs to explain my position better.

I've gone head to head with Dems for months now on another forum, and no one has been as mean-spirited to me personally and called me names like that simply because I didn't want to start up the Shiavo fight again because I know how that plays here.

SB, please do me a favor and never post to me again.

You know, maybe the mods should jump on him for calling me names. But I don't feel like squealing to the mods.

So, are the bishops going to weigh in on this election? Dems hate that.

The judge in Florida was a real scandal. It was partly because people here simply don't vote for judges. Most judges in FLorida are elected and not appointed, with the result that there can be a large number of them on the ballot. Consequently, most people don't know anything about them and just leave that vote blank.

But Greer was very tied in with the Scientologists, who are the folks who dominate St. Pete's, and I think that was more influential than anything else.
