Democrats have screwed up priorities

i dont get it.

I was reading today about Obama's short term agenda and three things that came up were

1) stop plans to drill for oil in environmentally fragile areas
2) stop the ban on funding of abortion aid in other countries
3) stop ban on stem cell creation and subsequent destroying for research purposes.

WHAT??????

why is the environment and/or animals more important that unborn babies?

many times the liberal agenda is more for the rights of everything EXCEPT unborn kid, eg: baby animals, people on death row, gay rights, etc.

I am not against the rights of those i just listed, i would just include unborn children too, right?? it seems like strange priorities, or hypocritical.

Nice try, but I think you are thinking about "low class" as opposed to "lower class."

I will readily admit that life begins at conception because, scientifically, it does.


However, there is a reason that the medical community does not refer to a fetus as a baby until it is born.

She still referred to drug dealers as "garbage" who deserve no compassion.

I am personally adamantly opposed to abortion, except in certain situations (rape, incest, maternal/fetal health), but the inescapable fact is that women WILL have abortions "of convenience" whether they are legal or not, and IMHO if one is TRULY opposed to abortions "of convenience", the ONLY remedy is EDUCATION.


I agree, this is a point that has been on my mind of late but is largely ignored.

Look back at my posts, Sandy and not once will you see me twisting her words.

I didn't say YOU twisted her words .... but that is the topic I was discussing and you responded, so the conversation went on.

Okay, but my point is that there was MUCH to take offense to in her post and much to debate.
