I understand that; but I also understand that we're a party being held hostage by those voters.
And sooner or later, there are going to be enough people in the GOP to do without them.
I'm not interested in placating people who sat home in 2000 because George Bush got a DUI in college.
We have established the fact that one of the planks of the party is pro-life; but you simply cannot say that 60 million people went to the polls because of pro-life issues.
In America's present intense ideological divide? Tell me another one.
Please Hildy, I don't want to fight with you. I am speaking the truth to you in all Charity. It is not MY truth, I'm a lowly sinner. Sometimes the Truth is painful to bear, but if you embrace it you will be free.
Turn away from death and embrace life.
Fine. Let it die. You all have been threatening it for years. Frankly, I'm sick of you all blackmailing us.
You've been on THESE threads too long.
Hey that plank might as well not be there, is what you're telling us. Sorry, won't wash. The "non pro life" GOP voters have no excuse for not knowing it was there.
You know what just occurred to me: the only "murder" pro-lifers support is the "murder" of the GOP.
Ah, would you sooner be redmailed with the blood of millions of the pre-born?
You have one thing right: Those who strengthen and give aid and comfort to the purveyors of the Culture of Death are certainly not 'true conservatives' in my book.
LOL! You "give" 24/7.
What does that mean?
But you believe that people who disagree with you give aid to anybody you oppose; you've said it a thousand times, all the while claiming that YOU are being abused by the rest of us.
To watch you post, you'd think your words were etched in stone.
DUH, you da GOP? You are the one who will be on the short side of this one, either way, based on your views. We win in one way, at least
FINALLY, you've offered a sound assertion that even I will heartily agree with! WOW! [Now, to make my ears ring, perhaps Hildy will asseret that she is against abortion for any reason except LIFE of the mother, rape and incest. Nah, can't happen!]
I certainly do defend my posts here. Are you in the habit of posting things you don't believe?
Au contraire, we ask the GOP if it is about to commit suicide. Because if it will not represent the womb-bound and see to it that they get at least the same respect that a dog or cat would, then there really is not a dime's worth of difference between the parties.
Good to see you, my friend.
blackmailed... redmailed. it's a pun, but deadly serious.
For the record:
Freeper Vicomte13 wrote the article. It's in the heading of the thread where the author's name always goes.
And I pinged Vicomte13 in the first post, stating: "Outstanding Job! It needed to be said, and the pols in DC need to hear it and internalize it."
I appreciate your concerns, truly. But if you read his article carefully and his several follow-up posts you will see the wisdom of his WARNING:
Toward the end of the article:
"This is called "Chicken". It is called a "Mexican Standoff". And since we are fired up by the certitude that we are doing God's work in defending babies, we cannot be bought, and you cannot win so much as an election for dog catcher in this country without us. "
