The tax code does not treat all people as equal, too.
So I ask again: do you refuse to pay income taxes?
Your sense of proportion is extremely skewed if you equate paying taxes with the equal protection of innocent human life.
I am simply testing your principles, your consistency, and your vainglorious proclamations of being unwilling to compromise.
I will gather by your non-answer that you do willingly pay income taxes despite the violation of the aforementioned Constitutional guarantee of equal treatment to all. And I am certain that you do so with the 100% certain knowledge that said unconstitutionally surrendered money would never in any possible way ever be used to advance the cause of abortion rights, yes?
Play with your silly straw man all night if you want. I’m not participating.
The only thing I’ll say about taxes is that I have a memory. I clearly recall Gingrich and his pals blocking any sort of fundamental tax reform for more than a decade, when they had the power to change anything and everything.
You holding him to account for that?
Out of 100 how many black babies are aborted each year?...
The answer might freak out black citizens if they knew..
Of course they would do nothing about it..
Blacks don’t get uppity and become republicans..
Their eyes roll around as they are Negrodamus-ized..
Very well, and you keep your ivory tower white and your pedestal high, but I’m not buying.
It is easy to demand “no compromise” when you are at no personal risk by doing so.
Grasping at straws with which to bludgeon Newt is not a principled stand. If the tax code is unacceptable, why not take a stand and refuse to pay?
They don't generally try to abort fifty year olds.
Unless they're disabled. Then we're all fair game, if the Constitution's requirement for equal protection is ignored.
Let me ask you a question: Would you give these politicians a pass if they supported legislation that allowed paraplegics to be shot in the heart and killed? Hey, they wouldn't feel a thing, right?! Would you support legislation that allowed Grandma or Grandpa to be done away with if they were given enough morphine? Hey, they wouldn't feel a thing, right?!
Why not? Can you delineate any moral difference between the paraplegic or Grandma or Grandpa and the child in the womb?
Because I’m not stupid. And I understand the moral difference between paying taxes and butchering babies.
-—”Would you give these politicians a pass if they supported legislation that allowed paraplegics to be shot in the heart and killed? Hey, they wouldn’t feel a thing, right?! Would you support legislation that allowed Grandma or Grandpa to be done away with if they were given enough morphine? Hey, they wouldn’t feel a thing, right?!”-—
If they try, I will oppose it.
If they succeed, I will gladly support any effort to reverse the abomination, even if that requires a piece-by-piece dismantling of said abomination in lieu of a revolution.
Now, right back at you: Would you let them continue shooting the paraplegics in the heart and euthanizing grandma rather than support an effort that could only save 99% of them, but not all?
Well that’s an easy distinction, but I thought you just gave me a giant manifesto talking about the Constitutional crisis of it, and demanding we accept nothing other than the complete equality of treatment guaranteed, even if it means sacrificing millions of unborn in the meanwhile.
And yet, you have no problem cooperating with a tax system that blatantly violates said Constitutional guarantees.
I really liked her when she first began but I don't like how she runs her campaign. It was fine to mention Perry's issue with immunizations...but then she just went on and on and on about it. Same with her adopting children...she seems to pick a topic and then gets stalled on it.
No-body’s ripping into Romney...he could almost make me literally sick by his sleazy way of cruising thru this primary..saying nothing at all...as if he's got it either all wrapped up or he simply doesn't care if he wins or not.
He's just not in this to win ....but I couldn't say the same thing about his leadership....THEY certainly are.

Not if it involved throwing every principle upon which the republic and our claim to liberty rests onto the fire of the altar of political expediency, no.
Not if it involves “legal” sanctioning of killing innocents, no.
Not if if involves gross abrogation of the sacred oath of office, no.
Especially when I knew that the claims of those who say they are going to save some by doing the above are a stinking lie in the first place.
That is a reply to #54, but not a response, EV.
Utter nonsense. I'm not the one sacrificing millions of the unborn. That falls on the shoulders of those who refuse to follow the most important principles of our republic.
And yet, you have no problem cooperating with a tax system that blatantly violates said Constitutional guarantees.
I've been fighting for a tax system that treats everyone equally for about twenty years. Much of that fight against the phony do-nothings in power like Gingrich. How about you?
