Where the disconnect comes in is that you seem to think that religious conservatives should continue to support Republicans who are so openly disdainful of them. Wrong! I want the religious conservatives to get the hell out and form their own party.

"ending NAFTA"
i.e. more tariffs and quotas.
"ending ...the 35-70% subsidy Chinese goods enjoy"
i.e. more tariffs and quotas.
Just say it like it is. That's what he wants... more tariffs and quotas.

Why? Guys like you already have their own party--the Democrats. Why not leave us alone?
Boy, am I glad you're not a Hunter supporter!

Are you sure you are not bad-mouthing us all because it sounded like that is exactly what you were doing!

If the Blitherer won't VOTE for anyone she believes condones murder (abortion), you equate that with the Taliban who TORTURE and/or EXECUTE anyone who strays from their dogma.
HUH?????
Better watch yourself, calling other people fools for their beliefs and their votes.

Hell, even the Catholic Church at one time had an official dogma that a person had no soul until his/her mother was 4 months pregnant.
No, it wasn't official Church dogma--what, do you get your talking points from Planned Parenthood?
And as it is, the Church has allowed the theological debate on this issue to continue until the modern era--and now that it's perfectly clear thanks to modern medicine that the fetus in the womb is a living human being, the Church has come out authoritatively and said that abortion is WRONG and a terrible SIN.
Don't guys like you generally whack the Church for not adapting its teachings to modern scientific understanding? And yet when it does, you demand that we go back to the former theory? Damned if you do, damned if you don't yet again.

I'm not a fundamentalist. I'm a Catholic. And if you think by trashing pro-life people you're doing the GOP any favors, you're kidding yourself.
Name the last openly-pro-abortion president that the GOP got elected president....

The fact that you naysayers are drawn to the Hunter threads like moths to a flame tells me all I need to know. His name is getting out there. If you really thought Hunter was a non-entity, you wouldn't even bother posting to these threads... |

It would seem that you've nailed it!

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty. - Jim Robinson
You should NOT be attacking conservatives, conservative candidates, and conservative ideals on this conservative website.
Comparing someone who recognizes and wants to protect the sanctity of life to the Taliban is beyond offensive.

Dear Antoninus,
Although the question of when the human person became ensouled was an open question up until the last couple of centuries, as you know, the question of whether or not abortion was morally acceptable never was.
If I recall correctly, the Church has condemned abortion at least as far back as the Didache, which is late first century or early second century.
Of course, I don't really know why the law on abortion would be governed by a theological debate as to when human beings get "souls." Whether a human being is ensouled at conception, or at age 40, that is all a matter of faith.
What we actually know is when the human being comes into existence, when the unique member of the species homo sapiens has her beginning: conception.
For me, it isn't a religious issue. It isn't an issue of faith. It's a fundamental human rights issue.
I believe that the protection of law should extend to all members of the species homo sapiens. Our rights are inherent, intrinsic, inalienable. If we believe that, then we believe that our rights inhere to us because we exist, not because we've accomplished some level of achievement, performed some action.

I know that those positions alone are going to choke Hunter off from the funding he's going to so desperately need. That's funny because Hunter has as much as Giuliani so far...

Right, cause young women Christians can't make up their minds on their own? There. All better. Go back to DU where those opinions belong. Knee-jerk and intolerant.... yup, must be a Christian!!! Thank you for projecting. You've made my point better than I every could.

"No - I'd guess you learned about government in church. "
->"Nope, wrong answer, but thanks for playing."
->"I'm sorry, but I believe life begins at conception, and that makes abortion murder. I will NOT vote for a candidate who supports murder. Call me an evangelical fascist wack-job if you want, rant and rave about how I'm putting Hillary in the White House, it won't change my mind. There are some things that go beyond politics, and killing babies is one of them."
Nice try. Sort of.
