So you would vote for Charles Manson or a Adolph Hilter-type candidate if they agreed with all other positions you believe in other than murder, genocide, or abortion?
I don't mean to be facitious here, but your statement implies that logic exactly. Certainly, we all have to look at the whole package of beliefs by candidates, but you would have to admit some beliefs would have to disqualify them despite all other beliefs.
Would you vote for a candidate, for instance, that favored allowing the immigration of girls from foreign countries who were forced into prostitution? Certainly not; it wouldn't matter what that candidates views were on any other issue, you would say "get the heck out of here, moron."
Abortion is probably 10 on the list of my top 10 list !
I want the Gov't out of our lives and I want the states to have the powers they were given.
The Feds (Since FDR) have been getting too much control over the states and we're creeping in the wrong direction.
BTW: I support Bush about 90% so I'm no PJB fan but I'm a realist and think 90% is the most we're gonna get in the next 50 years so abortion is GODS issue not mine.
