most people who argue against partial birth abortions are caught up in the politics. It sounds horrendous, is truly appalling and creates a furror when it is brought up. Truth is the supporters only support it when a mothers life is in danger. Makes good press and rallies the american taliban eh ... excuse me the christian right. It is really a non-issue and is another smokescreen to take focus off of real issues.
You guys bashing Rob apparently don't know the main reason that Kerry supports abortion. He simply believes in freedom of choice and that a womens decision to have abortion is to be settled between her and God........bottom line.....
90% of the people in this country that say they're Christian are total hypocrites or don't know what they're talking about.
Everyone knows you can get some nice poontang going to "Christian" churches. Only churches where it's tough to get laid are Mormons. Other than that, these "Christian" chicks are dripping they're so horny.

I guess you are right. I am pathetic to think that our country can be stopped from going the route of theocracy. If Bush wins a close election watch all these religious nuts take over and further push us towards that sad path.
I still maintain if you say you can't raise your children without help from politicians sharing your faith then you are without a doubt PATHETIC! Republicans are supposed to be the party of self-responsibility, why are so many of their followers people that act like they can't do anything without being "saved" along the way by their leaders?

As a moderate Republican/Roman-Catholic/former US Army 11-B, that crossed party-lines in a presidential election for the first time ever today, what I find amazing about voters in this election is that it will be won on the "defense issue" and "abortion/faith-based initiatives"..
How is it that a guy that led troops under fire in a floating target on narrow rivers, is weak on defense, yet the guy that dad got into an over-strengthed/100%+ national guard unit, then skipped drill for 20 months, is the only candidate capable as the C&C/military leader?..I am pro the UBL chase in Afghanstan, yet anti Iraq Part-Two (however, was AOK with Bush Sr on liberating Kuwait, though a semi-wasted effort at Saddam)..
How is it that elections since 1972/Roe v.Wade are decided by one's stance on abortion, when the same amount of deaths happen daily/yearly for 32 years, regardless of one's stance and party-affiliation, yet the pipe dream of loading up the Supreme Court just right, then praying for one of it's rare overturns, wins presidential elections quite often..yes, I am anti-abortion..and so is "Kerry The Catholic", yet he needs to pander to free-choicers & gays as a key voting block of his party(just as do Reps on corporate welfare affairs via PAC money)..
I really enjoyed serving under Bush Sr, but the whodathunkit of it all, is that his nepotistic son, fumbling at most turns in career life, could win our nation's top office twice, when his father the war-hero/solid businessman/CIA man/excellent VP/underrated Prez couldn't win as incumbent..only in America, only in America!
The Liberals to the Left & Greedy Corporate Welfare to The Right, with both backloading bills and props with pork-barrel politics and partisan cronyism, are what has America generally showing up for elections at about a 40% turnout, despite today's great showing..alienated and disenfranchised are what the majority feels..they lack a voice..both sides have forgotten that the vast majority of us are compassionate moderates from both parties, forced to whore to agendas that don't really properly represent the majority of us.
Whomever wins today(W) in this election needs to be more like Reagan & Clinton(the two best speakers/motivators of the past 30 yrs), whom both were blessed with somewhat more peacetime economies, yet both had most Americans(OK, maybe not the hardline partisans for both parties) feeling good about the overall situation..and most importantly energized the masses with charasmatic speeches.
Civility must return, as the work ahead is gonna take all of us on working terms at a bare minimum.
I feel a like a bettor that lost betting a monster play against his alma-mater in a national title game, that can at least take the joy his side won the big one, yet with that empty feeling on the inside.
P.S. What does a $10 tax-payer paid Halliburger taste like?..Profiteering?

I don't think those things, WildBill. I just think it's funny how people like you try to distort what the US was founded on. It's freedom of religion, not from it. 99% of people believe there's a God. If people want to actually live their lives like they believe that, it doesn't make them nuts. Just deal with it and ignore them, if you don't like the fact that they are religious.WildBill said:
