The point should be that we respect each sides position, not that you have to agree with it. The GOP platform has always had this stance, it isn't as if it's a new tack to the right. The only variable that hasn't remained static is the left's response to this long standing position from the GOP. Rather than respect their views that there shouldn't be tax payers to fund from their perspective "killing a life", the new response now is to demagogue their views.

Sorry, I'm to busy losing brain cells in the "Akin" thread to respond to your post properly.

<p> Well, they know that they have to try to rile up their loony lefty base to try to win this election, and fact is that there are enough dim wits that believe this line of attack, so it's all about pumping up the base, and since they know they can't win on substance, all they can primarily focus is on are these sort of issues. They also understand that the media will comply and will continue to make this a central issue, all while we are experiencing the worst economic "recovery" since the Great depression, trillion dollar deficits as the new norm, failure of leadership to address the entitlement programs, real unemployment through the roof and wages that are continuing to plummet.And the media complains that the candidates aren't offering substance, yet they are the ones who push these issues.

I didn't even catch that, so she's a bigot.

“Where’s the outrage by Mitt Romney?” she said. “There is a sickness out there in the Republican party, and I’m not kidding. Maybe they don’t like their moms or their first wives; I don’t know what it is.” Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0812/80005.html#ixzz24JNWNC7J Barbara Boxer Whats even more amazing is that millions of people have voted for her multiple times.

The way I see it is if it has a heart beat, the baby is alive. I don't think I could be involved in the decision to go through with exterminating any "human" life that has a heart beat.

I'm internally debating to see which comment was more retarded, post #303 or #305....

Nope

Maybe his position is "evolving"

You can't cut & Paste text from a youtube link.Duhhhh

I wouldn't be opposed to a student ID.

AhAAAAAA! So you admit, There is Fraud!

An ABC News/Washington Post poll released early Wednesday found that 50 percent of senior citizens 65 years and older have a favorable view of Paul Ryan, the GOP vice presidential pick, while 35 percent hold an unfavorable view. Fifteen percent, the poll found, don't have an opinion. Democrats had expected Rep. Ryan (R-Wis.) to be especially unpopular with older Americans because of his budget proposal, which shifts Medicare into a subsidized private insurance model system for those currently under the age of 55. President Obama's campaign has hit Ryan hard for his Medicare plans, saying they would raise healthcare costs for seniors. - That's good news for the campaign.

It's gonna get ugly, they are going to use incendiary terms like rape, incest and "akin" and try to tie them to Romney and Ryan. You will have a complicit media now that will attempt to constantly make this an issue, despite the fact that the GOP plank has always been pro-life no matter the circumstance. It isn't as if that this is a new position, the only thing that has changed, is the response from the left. As I've mentioned before I'm pro choice. But I understand the views from social conservatives, that they believe that human life should be protected. They don't want their tax dollars contributing to the termination of an unborn child. I also understand that if someone was raped, that they would want to have an abortion, hell I respect their decision if they want an abortion just because they don't want to have a child. That's their choice.Both sides have a point on the issue, the only thing that has changed is the lefts intense opposition to those who have pro life stances for all circumstances.

That poll has a D + 10 sampling and it's RV. Even in 2008, which was a year where Democrats had all the enthusiasm, it was D + 6-7 . No way no how they will repeat much less surpass 2008 figures. Most likely the correct sampling for LV should be somewhere around even to +2 D. AP with their poll came out, and it's another RV poll, couldn't find the internals but has Obama up +1. Interestingly enough had Romney up +11 with independents. If Romney gets anywhere near +10 with independents and with the energy behind Conservatives, he wins, period. Also, there was a Nevada poll that came out today that has Obama up 47-45. The race in the battlegrounds have all tightened considerably since the selection of Ryan. In regards to Akin, he is a risk for conservatives. For the people who are marginal voters, in the sense that they may or may not vote and that don't really pay attention to the issues, this sort of distraction works in favor for the president, specially with women. The development of Akin will pass over, but could have a negative residual effect not just in Missouri, which I would now consider Missouri as a toss up state, but across the country.

It use to be where reasonable people could disagree about being pro-life and pro-choice, I'm on the pro-choice side of things, and I respect both sides of the argument, but now, the left has moved so far out left, that if you are pro-life, it is now somehow something wrong. This isn't the same Democratic party we use to see, now the left is comprised of a bunch of leftist extremists.

<p> How is that the same as what Akin said?Seriously, you are one thick-headed moron.

I think Wisconsin stands a good chance at going Red. They almost went red for Bush twice, they elected Walker, ousted liberal stalwart Feingold and replaced him with a tea party senator, they elected a state legislature that is republicans and they ousted a couple house democrats in 2010, not to mention the huge re election of Walker. This state is in play and the energy is behind the conservatives. If I had to pick a side, I would say as of right now, it goes to the R column. Michigan I would say will most likely will go to the D column, but it is tightening, and this poll was of over 1300 LV , and it shows a nice margin for Romney. Without a doubt, the momentum is on their side and that will most likely only grow through the convention. Romney is looking good right now, specially with the money advantage they will have.

Lets not pretend that you were somehow going to ever pick a conservative.

Holy ****! a PPP poll released today has Romney up 1 in Wisconsin. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/polls/244557-ryan-boosts-romney-to-a-lead-in-wisconsin Not a huge surprise, but there is a Democratic polling outfit that has Romney up 4. If Michigan and Wisconsin go to Romney, the race is over. http://www.myfoxdetr...-ahead-of-obama In what will be a significant blow to Democratic campaign efforts, native son Mitt Romney has climbed into the lead in Michigan's Presidential contest. The naming of Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan has delivered a targeted affect on the Michigan and Midwest campaign dynamics. We ballot tested the Presidential candidates and we also tested the following two areas of initial campaign impact and awareness: Congressman Ryan's impact on voters' decision to vote for Mitt Romney. Congressman Ryan's controversial 2012 fiscal budget plan and voters support or opposition to the plan. It is our conclusion that the results to these questions will help initially either validate Ryan's selection or provide messaging for Democrats that Ryan is not acceptable to the voters. As our data outlines, currently Romney and Ryan are received positively enough to help vault Romney into the lead. Our aggregate findings for this section are as follows: State-wide Aggregate Results (Weighted to projected age, gender & ethnicity of electorate, percentages do not all equal 100%) – 1733 Respondents MOE +/- 2.35% Question 1: The 2012 United States Presidential election will be held on November 6, 2012. Who are you more likely to vote for in the election?? (Barack Obama): 43.88% (Mitt Romney): 47.68% (Another candidate): 3.96% (Undecided): 4.01%

No dumbass, you are suggesting that if you are an "evangelical" that you somehow have the same beliefs that Akin does. No seriously, Are you really this stupid? I mean, is this what you honestly believe?

Btw, it appears that Akin will be staying in the race, despite the relentless calls for him to drop out. What a selfish idiot.
