Mr. W - Carla Binion?

You mean the conspiracy theorist, Bush hating, GOP hating, "journalist" who is anti-anything Republican and who has flooded the media with PRO-Democrat, ANTI-Republican propaganda?

You mean THAT Carla Binion?



Mr W. - the Republicans have NOT "been in charge" as you claim, because except for brief period of time in the '90's they did not have "control" of Congress.

Regardless, the "issue" is not "Republican versus Democrat," as much as it is "Conservative versus Liberal." There are a LOT of Republicans In Name Only (RINO Republicans) that I strongly disagree with and would not vote for UNLESS their "opposition" election opponent was even WORSE than they were and the choice is "pick one." That's not all that different from a lot people who are "Christians in name only" but who DO NOT submit their will, their pride in self, TO God as their one true LORD and Savior. With the exception of the Abortion issue. I WILL NOT vote for any candidate who is in favor of continuing the unrestricted slaughtering of millions of innocent babies.

I reserve the right to "vote my conscience," and my conscience IS directly tied to the Word of God and the Sanctity of Life.

Screw up foreign policy, screw up domestic policy, etc. and we'll all collectively suffer from the problems it gives us, perhaps even "deservedly so" if we tossed our support to the "leaders" who lead us into those problems.

BUT when it comes to those "problems" compared to the LIVES of CHILDREN who have had NO SAY in their very existence, those problems PALE in comparison to the holocaust being visited upon the most vulnerable part of our society.



Don't be ridiculous. No one here has been advocating for a "One Party State." Now the Democrats certainly have been arguing for an "effectively one party state", and they have not been "shy" about that being one of their "goals," to effectively HAVE a "one Party State" by controlling all branches of Government. But even the "power hungry" Democrats are NOT advocating for "one party system" where they are the only party, because then they would not be able to hide what they are doing nor avoid the responsibility for it. Just take a look at Barney Frank, for example, and his "denials" of any responsibility for the Mortgage Meltdown triggered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, both of which HE oversaw and refused any sort of regulatory control or oversight of (which both McCain and Bush wanted years ago).



Satire? Is this more of the same sort of attempt to "distance" yourself from things while giving "under the table support" for those very things? Like, "I don't personally agree with abortion, but I respect your right to do whatever YOU think is okay as long as it doesn't impact ME directly?"

Moral Relativism at it's best.

And you seriously think that Jesus would be, or is, a "liberal?"

"Thou shalt NOT kill." "Thou shalt NOT commit adultery."

Should I go on?

It is NOT RELATIVE in God's eyes and never has been. If there is a "conservative 'out there'" it is an unchanging God.

Wow...you're really about to freak out, aren't you?

Well, FWIW:

So...what you're saying is that all the illness of conservatism needs is a little gene therapy???

Mr. W

Well, no. I don't personally vouch for the research. I don't know how well designed or conducted it was, or if it can be replicated, hence the "FWIW". I just thought it fit with what Krazy had to say and that he would find it interesting.

Not at all. I understand about your case of 'deaf ears.'

Regardless, the information was for believers, since I already knew you don't believe in the LORD or that babies ARE created with a soul and not just some "play dough" lump of inherently purposeless chemicals.

You must really have a lot of worry about believers to jump to that sort of conclusion and no worry about the slaughter of millions of babies.

But just count me in as one of those "poor people" who cling to their guns and religion if it makes you feel any safer, or superior.

Just swinging by to remind you Ladies and Gents to please keep this discussion respectful by avoiding insults and personal attacks.

Thank you from the Harleys.
