How about I grant you this: Oberweis was more Libertarian than Conservative on the Pro-Life issue five years ago.

In other words, he favored legal abortion.

And now he claims to be pro-life.

He was also brand new to the concept of what his role would be as a politician regarding abortion. But he never gave any indication that he was, as you put it, "Pro Abortion." He was always Pro-Life

He was pro-life like John Kerry is pro-life, like Mario Cuomo is pro-life. In other words, PRO-ABORTION.

You support legal abortion, you're pro-abortion.

You said:

Give me one iota of proof.

You've been given plenty of proof, but you'd rather delude yourself.

Hmmm...I see.

Semantic issues.

Okay, by your definition, he was (or still is) the same as John Kerry.

I think there's a helluva difference.

Nonetheless, I can see you've made up your mind.
Oberweis = Pro Abortion.

Of course, it's going to be fun going through this with the "Not ever Conservative enough" crap every IL election. Just wait until 2008, when Conservative Bill Brady gets flanked by a Conservative who's against accepting the Mexican ID card, and providing tuition for illegals, and free health care for illegals. Then we can have the same thing happen again - Bill Brady isn't "Conservative enough," so we can all split our Conservative votes between fake immigration hardcore Bill Brady and proven immigration hardcore Pete Roskam or someone else. Meanwhile, Ron Gidwitz wins the GOP nod to face Dick Durbin.

I'm just a little tired of the infighting. I'm tired of seeing our party shoot itself in the foot by promoting moderates while Conservatives split their votes every primary. I'm voting Oberweis - he's worlds better than Blagojevich or Topinka, and the only candidate who's at ALL Conservative who has a shot at winning.
