This is the world that Democrats created when they decided to demonize their way to power rather than convince voters their ideas are better than the Republican.

They win elections not on the strength of their argument but on some personal weakness of their opponent.

It is fun to watch when a protected Democrat is caught in a trap designed to catch Republicans.

Personally I am more concerned this Governor thinks it is ok to murder a newly born infant then what he did 35 years ago.

One is Democrat policies and the other is a personal weakness.

Ok, he didn’t sign a bill, but they did in New York, and his statements are very telling what the democrat agenda is. Don’t try to sell me how reasonable it is because it’s only meant for when the life of the mother is in danger because those situations are rare now. It’s democrats playing politics, not republicans.

I'm not trying to sell you anything Virg, so calm the eff down.

And we sure as $hit weren't talking about New York.

If you can't handle your mistakes being called out, then don't post or grow thicker skin.

I AM ON YOUR SIDE AGAINST THIS ABHORRENT EVIL
