Great list except for 'Abortion'.

Why do I say this?

It is a hot-button issue with everyone and you will not convice any Libersls to see the light by suddenly confronting them with the 'A' word.

Someone will start reading this list and think to themselves, "Oh crap, there are those abortion protesters again." and disregard the rest.

Start them off with the other things, THEN as they come around bring up what abortion really means.

As a former sheeple, I speak of what I know.

5 years ago, my reaction to this list would have been exactly as I described above and I know a lot of people who would otherwise be convinced except for seeing that 'A' word.

Kind of like that one issue poster who injects abortion into every thread that she's on. As evil as abortion is, it will turn your intended audience off every time.

Bring them around slowly....

I agree. Abortion is a hot-button issue, and the extreme pro-life stance does tend to turn off many who would otherwise agree totally with these sentiments.

The other problem I have with this piece is that the author is schizophrenic on the issue of drugs. On one hand, he rightly criticises the fact that rich Hollywood types walk for "offenses" that send poor ghetto dwellers to decades-long stays in the anal-rape camps. But he then goes on to support the WOD, and says nothing about the millions of us that become compliant sheeple by taking legal mind-killers like Ritalin, Prozac, and Zoloft. He missed that wonderful Leftist agenda, just like he missed the enviro-wacko agenda.
