My wife...

The STAUNCH Republican or so she thinks
Had:
1. Obama
2. Biden
3. Clinton

She's all sputtering, how could this be...
I tell her this is not some scientific survey.
But it shows how much she takes into account
personality. She hates, despises, Clinton.

But of course it had no questions about how
important cankles are.

Sorry to interrrupt the fierce abortion
issue which we have visited an infinite number
of times.

Sort of a Neo-Libertarian.....

Or, as your boy Duncan Hunter likes to call them, "Liberal-tarians"

I did have a Republican #2 after all.

If Kucinich wasn't under 5 feet tall - didn't believe in space aliens - and was smart enough to tweak some of his stances and position himself where he will be best suited politically....but still stay true on a few positions he feels strongest about....

He'd be something of a contender!

Heck, he'd be John Edwards.

lol...twice

I think your survey basically equates to
one sitting atop roofs at night
with aluminum foil intricately
folded onto clothes hangers
arranged to form a headress
hoping to see something... anything.

God bless you magma.

Here is a video that you guys can view if you would like, it is an abortion taking place 11 weeks into the pregnancy, and is hard to watch, but I think could have the ability to change some peoples opinion. As the instrument is being put in to poke the baby and take its life, you can see the baby squirming to get away and doing anything in its power to save itself from the harm of the instrument. This is murder plain and simple.

I can't watch that,but (to me)that's too late.I think rather than outlawing it,we need to put tighter restrictions on how late a woman can have one.
If it can respond to stimuli,then it's too late.

So while I'm obviously not agreeing with Irish on the issue itself, I certainly can understand where he's coming from, even if it's from the complete other side -- how outrageous it can feel that there are actually people that don't agree with you on an issue like this.

I think abortion in this day and age is too widely used as a form of birth control. Make a mistake, but don't make it twice. JMHO.

Not sure who or what a Tancredo is, but I'm apparently all over it :o

Tancredo first, Hunter second...I must be all about unelectable neverheardofs

Well, I think it's not widely used enough....in fact, sometimes it seems like a tragedy there aren't a lot more.

The abortion issue is meaningless to me. As I see it, it's basically an issue between overly religious types, versus whiny females.

I have no dog in that fight for sure.

You have no dog in the fight over life? Without life, what is there for you?

As for you thinking it's a tragedy there aren't a lot more of them, what a sick thing to say. The tragedy is that women are out there having sex without protection at all and they don't give a shiat. Furthermore, the men don't care either!

I would never have an abortion personally, but I don't hold it against women who feel they have to. Sometimes there are no other options and that is their choice. Believe me, they have to live with that choice.

just read that the #'s are down, have been going down for years now. it's good news.
really no reason to use it as a form of birth control, since so much is widely available and covered by most insurance.
what cracks me up are that some co's don't cover birth control, but do cover viagra. still a mans world.

Yeah, that is good news. I went to school with a girl that had 4 abortions... you would think that swallowing a pill every morning would be easier than that. Don't you think?

IrishofNDMan 01-10-2008 11:03 PM

you don't have to be religious to think that taking a human life is wrong.

There is no "fight" over "life." Just people who disagree about an issue I could give two shits about.

Your second question seems to be a dressed up way of saying "what if your mom aborted you!?" Gee wiz, I guess thankfully my dad shot his spunk inside of a woman who isn't whiny and was up to the task of having me and trying to do a sort of decent job raising me - even though it might or might not have been convenient for her.

Look, I don't know if mom always wanted me or I was unplanned. I don't care. I don't know if I was a really good swimmer back when I was spunk - but I was good enough to atleast put myself in a position to either be aborted or get born several months later. I did what I had to do - ok?

Turns out, I didn't get to be aborted - sad as it may seem sometime - I was allowed to develop to the point of being born several months later. And I was.

Am I supposed to be pissed if I won a race as a sperm and got no ultimate prize in the end for it? Am I supposed to feel guilty when I masturbate onto a sock - and all my future baby prospects aren't even given the chance to win an event that would lead to them someday becoming something more than a stain on a f'in sock?

But yeah, the world would be a lot better off if we would get to become more overpopulated with kids parents don't want and would be willing to go to desperate measures to get rid of.

Sick as it may be - that's what I think after I'm finished reading through about 80% of the threads.

I see no tragedy in any of that.

No, but I think you just got offended when I called this an issue between tedious morality types and whiny woman. Ok fine, you can be a whiny woman, but one who will always reject abortion. Happy?

Yes - you hold nothing against them because they are pu$$ies taking the easy way out.

Surprisingly, I had Giuliani +16 and Romney +6 as my top choices. Bottom two are more interesting Paul -14 and Clinton -6 -- they would make strange bedfellows.

I am pulling for Fred Thompson vs. Dennis Kucinich. This would guarantee US and A one very hot First Lady. And, if either Ms. T or Ms. K ever pursue presidency, va-va-voom! (this political humor brought to you by an anonymous donor)

Remember to vote in November -- just 10 short months away...

6.5 billion people or close to it on this planet. That's simply not enough. Jesus wants that number to triple.
