that is why I hold my nose and vote republican at the national level. Because democrats are not God's soldiers, that seems for sure.
Republicans have been promising to end abortion since Roe v Wade. That's 50 years of lying to the religious right.
On this we agree and it does anger me. Republicans are lip service phonies too, but still being forced to choose, I will take those who are not promoting abortion and calling it women’s health and praising PP and covering up for their sales of baby parts and crimes against humanity. That is just unbelievable.
Here's the deal: If you don't want an abortion, don't have one. Your values have not been compromised. You have been true to your faith.
Don’t be so naïve. If you don’t want to do heroin, don’t do it. If you do not want to walk around naked, don’t. We are protecting society from its own destruction, but more importantly protecting an unborn life. I also find the way govt promotes sexual morality in school to be a sin. We have a right to vote in those to change the laws, same as you.
Republicans have voted against jobs programs for veterans. Much needed infratstructure repairs. Anything that will help the citizens who live in America, in favour of more foreign aggression, war against Iraq and Afghanistan.
Messing about in the Middle East is just asking for trouble. The US should NEVER have installed the Shah of Iran, and maintained his despotic rule there. It has been the source of the ill will of the Iranians ever since, and rightfully so. They will never forget that the US put him on the Peacock Throne and kept him there until the Mullahs threw him out.
Every intrusion into the Middle East since that time, has done nothing to foster good will between the predominantly Muslim populations there, and the United States. The US needs their oil, at least it used to, and the Arabs loved American dollars. Other than that, there is no love lost between the two. Leave the hornets to their nest and stay away from it.
