There needs to be a specific term for the one-idea liberals -- the ones who care only about aborting every woman in the world. I really don't get it. A friend of mine whose parents were both Communists is ultra liberal but only cares that abortion is freely available. That is her total political interest.

She had an abortion while in her early twenties. She's now fifty, she and her husband have two kids. She told me she has nightmares about the baby she aborted, wishes she hadn't. But this still hasn't changed her views about abortion. I really do not understand this mindset.

How about Monolib? :) Maybe not.

I don't understand it either. I think people may grab on to one topic and obssess about it because they don't have enough confidence in their abilities to take up other causes. They find a little success in the first area of politics they splash into and they find they want more applause from whatever group they've chosen.

Personally, I enjoy reading about a lot of topics. I'm finding that many things tie together if you look deep enough (as shown by this thread).
