You know what? I assumed you werent sincere and thats not fair to you. I apologize for that. What i want you to please think about, is how we get to where you want us to be, in an abortion-free society.

Sarah set an ironclad example by not doing what has basically become mainstream today. She did not abort when she understood that her baby had downs, most women today ould. She didnt encourage her young daughter to abort because she was young, and because it could have embarrassed her politically.

I would ask you to look in your heart, and try to imagine the emample she set for todays young women. They have been raised in a culture of abortion and see it the way we see voting or gun rights. They desperately need women who walk the talk.

Most people see Sarah as extremely pro-life. My fear is that when todays young women see that even Sarah doesnt meet your standards, they will think they can never win with conservatives. If this happens, we will be a minority party forever. Honest people think you are harming the pro-life cause by extremism.

You should know by now that stupidity is not a liberal stronghold.

I try not to let anyone “give me” the truth.

It’s up to all of us to gather as much information as possible, from as many sources as possible, and then attempt to use common sense and rational thought (and some prayer) to come to a decision as top what “the truth” is.

Even then, it’s not easy knowing what “the truth” is.

State’s righter’s like me want this battle fought on all fronts

Then yours is hardly the normal "state's righter's" argument.

One becomes tired of the incessant bleating about the right of states to determine this issue- A right never given to them in any sense whatsoever.

I am a State’s righter because I believe it brings the fastest change to start saving babies and it will also give us a guidepost when we know when to pull the trigger on a national Constitutional amendment.

However well intentioned, I believe that 30 years of history are quite telling against your position. Furthermore, what man giveth, man taketh away- Even if you do get your state victory, all it will take is one federal jurist to overturn that work with another newer edict, regardless of how many states you might get to follow your lead.

And finally, relegating any of the enumerated unalienable rights to the mere authority of man, not to mention the states, endangers them all- And while Life is undoubtedly the most significant, folks might assume that one might have passed them by, as they have successfully made it beyond the womb. But it will not stop there. If those unalienable rights are merely declared by old men, then any old man can come and take them ALL away.

When do you ever see someone from the Air Force saying that a Marine fighting on the ground is actually working for the enemy because he isn’t flying also?

I will welcome my "state's rights" FRiends under the Pro-Life banner, and I will exchange friendly words with you here, and argue the finer points, as much as my patience will allow, but I will not allow deviation of the Pro-Life agenda. not one inch of variance. Nor will I stand by and see that agenda back away from goals which are set_in_stone. Our friendship *ends* when a candidate arrives sporting less than the full-fledged dyed-in-the-wool Pro-Life platform, and attempts to don the Pro-Life mantle.

As a Social Conservative, as a Reaganite, and as a true defender of the Constitution, I will rise up with all four feet against such a candidate, to include Sarah Palin.

And I will serve you this warning, too. I will predict that if Sarah Palin runs, it will be the Christians that hand her defeat, more than any other faction.

Do *not* mess with Life.

Sarah Palin is a politician, first and foremost. I have warned people that in four years she will be irrelevant. She is conservative only in comparison to McCain, but she is still a republican cut from the same cloth. A Reagan she is not and I doubt she is a reaganite. We need to get pack to our roots, she is a populist and we don't need any more of them. We have one in the white house right now.

I take it that you agree with EV's position, posted above, that the National Right to Life Committee is not pro-life?

The National Right to Life Committee is for sale, as can easily be determined by our last election, if no other.

You’re right. The RNC is now firmly in the control of Mitt Romney and his minions anyway.

I doubt she is a reaganite.

She is most certainly *not* a Reaganite.

She is, much as you say, a moderate populist, with libertarian leanings, much in the same cut as Fred Thompson.

In the other thread that you have been posting on you have just told all Freepers that ‘You’re the problem, not the Obama communists.’ Now I see what happened to Doug Kmiec. My tagline of recent weeks might have been written to apply to you.

” She HAD a choice — to pick NEITHER of these liberal justices and let the Alaskan Judicial Council make the pick. Nor she her record is stained with picking a pro-abortion, leftist judge.”


What is your source for that claim?

No. Her predecessor Murkowski tried that once and got embarrassed publicly when the board refused. And that was for a lesser court.

I think the whingers want Palin to be publically embarrassed.

It would give them an excuse to say "I like her, but she doesn't have the ability to ...."

"they will think they can never win with conservatives"

An irrational and unreasonable mentality will get us quickly nowhere, something I've understood since college. After my experience the last eight years with conservatives, I'm there and for quite awhile now.

Well EV I would really feel sorry for with all the heat your getting over your post, but after all the times you have been on the other side dishing it out I’m sorry all I can say is Karma sucks.
