“We have a president and way too many people who think killing a baby after it’s born is ok. People cover their eyes and ears pretending it’s not happening. This is no different than what hitler ( which SHOULD outrage ALL conservatives, not just Rick supporters) But WE conservatives are ruining the party by trying to stop this. How terrible of us.

What good is it if we gain the whole world and lose our soul and the souls of our children?”

But do you think that your circular firing squad mentality has brought this about? Social Conservatives sitting at home, not voting in a certain race, or voting for a candidate that can’t win brings about people like Obama and his views on abortion. A candidate who lets abortion be decided by the states vs a candidate that wants to outlaw abortion nationally...social Conservatives would shun the former and embrace the latter, even if the latter was not electable. So then they get someone who wants to keep abortion legal using the power of the federal government. That sort of mentality has gotten us where we are.

By the way, I’m pro-life. My stance is abortion should be outlawed in all cases, even rape as the child had nothing to do with it and is innocent. But I also believe in states rights and that abortion is a decision that must be made at the state level. We have too much power in D.C. And I don’t care if that power is wielded in my favor. If you want a big intrusive government doing your bidding, then you’re worse than the libs and when you set that sort of precedent, then that power just might be used against you. Social Conservatives have never learned that lesson.

“abortion is a decision that must be made at the state level.”

“we are satisfied, upon a careful examination of all the cases decided in the State courts of Missouri referred to, that it is now firmly settled by the decisions of the highest court in the State, that Scott and his family upon their return were not free, but were, by the laws of Missouri, the property of the defendant; and that the Circuit Court of the United States had no jurisdiction, when, by the laws of the State, the plaintiff was a slave, and not a citizen.”
