Now if Conservatives voted for a Ku Klux Klan president, you would label them racists, BUT
It never ceases to amaze me at the total hypocrisy and denial of who you are when you support the Democrat party. Every time I bring up late term abortions on demand for any reason, most Democrats deny supporting it while they vote for the very party that supports it. You make excuses how that is but one issue, or you are personally opposed to abortion but agree with Democrats on other issues, or you even deny that the Democrat party supports late term abortions for any reason. You are a complete liar if you actually say the latter.
Now tell me what would be the first words out of your mouth if a Conservative voted for a KU KLUX KLAN member. You would instantly call him a racist and there would be no excuse allowed in explaining why they voted for the person. There would be no explaining their vote by saying "they agreed with him on other issues". There would be no "I am personally not a racist, etc." You would call him a racist and I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU!
There are some things that go beyond party affiliation. There are issues that are a matter of humanity such as racism and abortion on demand.
Please look inside yourself, and ask what you would say about a person who votes for a KKK member. Then tell me how you feel about yourself when you vote for these Liberal Democrats who support late term abortions on demand and even selling Baby organs.
Can you grasp the hypocrisy? I doubt it for most of the Liberals on this site.
I thought the point was pretty clear. Democrats who vote for the Democrat party support late term abortions on demand for any reason and now we find out the Democrat party has no problem funding Planned parenthood who sells baby organs. These same democrats who vote for their party say they are personally opposed to these types of things but say they are not a one issue voter. In their minds, there is nothing wrong with supporting a person or party that supports such inhuman things, as long as they agree with other issues.
Now I asked you, would the Left allow Conservatives the same excuses if they should vote for a ku klux klan member for president? Even if they did not agree with his racist positions, but they agreed with him on other Conservative issues.
How do you suppose the left would speak about those who voted for him?
We both now the answer to that question. Any person who voted for him, and the entire GOP would be labled racists by the Left (and they would be correct in doing so).
That's the point! Democrats have no problem taking one issue of inhumanity(racism) and holding it against a person for voting for a racist(even though they say they are not personally a racist but rather look at the big picture and other issues).
When Conservatives tell you how ludicrous it is for you to justify voting for a Democrat or party(that supports late term abortions on demand for any reason), just because you agree with them on other issues, you pretend to not get it.
Your double standards are pathetic. If you are going to judge a person for voting for a man who is a racist, calling that one issue a show stopper and would not allow him the excuse of saying he voted on the other issues, not race, then accept the judgement of Conservatives who tell you that you lack humanity to vote in people who support late term abortions on demand.
If you can't get the point, then what an I say, you don't want to get the point. Conservatives will tell you that killing healthy late term Babies with healthy mothers is just as bad or worse as your outrage over racism.
I would accept your labeling me a racist if I voted for a KU Klux Klan member but you refuse to accept who you are when voting for these radical pro abortion Democrats.
Ah, I think I understand. You think that people are being hypocritical in the fact that they claim to support people in spite of disagreeing with late term abortions, unlike how they would respond to a KKK Republican candidate.
I think your problem is that you continue claiming that liberals don't support late term abortions (you keep claiming they avoid the question, etc.). Allow me to be clear. I think it's ok to allow late term abortions. As do a lot of other liberals. I think that is why I couldn't follow your analogy because it is based on something that is inaccurate for me.
Considering you were addressing all liberals, it must be somewhat confusing for you that not all liberals are carbon copies of eachother who believe the same thing. Amazingly, people are free-thinking and sometimes vary in ideas.
You still don't gt it! Amazing! You try to put forth an intellect but fail to get the simplest point.
I'm talking about people who vote for Democrats, who say they are personally against the inhumanity of late term abortions on demand, for any reasons, but STILL vote for the party that keeps late term abortions for any reason legal. Can you grasp that mindlessly simple point? These people will say they are not one issue voters which means that killing late term humam Babies is not a priority to them.
These same people would crucify any Conservative that voted for a KKK member regardless if the Conservative said that he was not a one issue voter. Even though he said he was personally not a racist, they would call him a racist for voting for the guy.
Am I going too fast for you?
So tell me what you would think of someone who voted for a KKK member? Would you respect that he is not a one issue voter or would you laugh at him for ignoring such an important issue of racism with their vote.
That's how we feel about so many hypocrite Democrats(who claim to be personally pro life and against late term abortions on demand) yet elect those who keep late term abortions on demand for any reason legal.(not just life of mother, etc.)
If you don't get it, it is time for a ban. I can not waste time debating mindless people.
If this was in response to a specific person, or incident, or some particular source you could point to, then this would be something worth discussing. All you're saying is "if someone did thing, then they would have done thing." That is insulting to yourself, your audience, and it accomplishes nothing.
This is in response to many people on this site as well as many millions of Democrats who claim they are against late term abortions on demand yet they STILL vote for people who keep it legal.
I don't know who they think they are fooling. The truth? They could care less about that Baby's life..... hence the hypocrites!
Sure, but that still doesn't merit an entire debate. This debate is all hypothetical, and without that context, does not stand alone.
You are literally saying: "If this happened, then that would be an example of hypocrisy." What is there to discuss? This is something to use as a response to someone.
Making this it's own debate is incredibly patronizing, rude, and makes you seem kind of stupid.
It merits a huge debate on the phoniness of most Democrats. They have lost all sense of humanity and purely vote for the politicians who will give them free stuff. They lack the integrity to admit they could care less about a human Baby's life while they will say they do.
For you to call anyone stupid who points out their phoniness is laughable. The fact of the matter is, you hate people like myself pointing out your hypocrisy and your total lack of compassion for the most vulnerble of our people.
Except ou presented no evidence that "most" Democrats argue this! Before you can make any argument like the argument you've made here, you must establish that. And you didn't. You just expect us to take your word for it when, to everyone except you, it does not seem obvious.
Maybe you have not lived long enough to have heard the vast majority of Democrats say they are against late term abortions on demand for any reason, yet they STILL vote for the party that keeps it legal.
My evidence comes out of the mouthes of Democrats. Start listening to them and you will see the evidence that you supposedly care so much about.
Maybe you have not lived long enough to have heard the vast majority of Democrats say they are against late term abortions on demand for any reason
You're right. Because that's not happening.
But I want to ask you something: Why are you so concerned with late-term abortions? If you truly believe life begins at conception, then an early-term and a late-term abortion should meet the same standards. Why do you find significance in those that happen in the third trimester?
And even if you did find the third trimester abortions to be problematic, it's happens extremely rarely. Less than 1% of abortions occur in the third trimester and this number has been getting lower and lower and lower as abortions have become more accessible, suggesting that third trimester abortions are happening because abortions are not averrable for those individuals before them. You can tell stories of people panicking at the last minute, but there is no evidence to suggest that is happening.
Start listening to them and you will see the evidence that you supposedly care so much about.
I do. And I'm not seeing and hearing what you're hearing. So why don't you do what you're supposed to do in a debate and provide some evidence. The 'common sense' argument is worthless in a debate when the two parties are not in agreement. The 'common sense' argument is also never acceptable in any debate.
I could throw out baseless numbers cheery picked from whatever article you want to waste our time with. It is mindless for you to deny the obvious.
So how many late term killings are acceptable to you? That is like saying only a few Black men are murdered today by racists compared to many 60 years ago. IS THAT YOUR ARGUMENT? So it is ok to make it legal to kill just a few Black men or babies?
The Democrat party is the party of death to late term Babies for any reason as PROVEN by the last bills put forth by Republicans to ban abortions past 5 months unless for extreme cases. The Democrat party stopped the bill as ALWAYS!
Yes, I am against all abortions unless life of mother as were the GOP until they caved in to the constant attacks from the Democrat party every election. The Liberal media did a great job of dehumanizing our unborn Babies so the electorate would not stand against first trimester abortions.
I vote for the politician who fights to end all abortions except life of mother.
Democrats could care less! They vote for their own freebies from tax payers no matter how many Baby organs are sold for profit.
Maybe you are too ignorant to know that many many late term abortions are used to end the lives of special olympic downs syndrome kids. Those are the facts from doctors in the congressinal hearings over Partial birth abortions. Are you for killing special needs kids? Democrats are!
It is highly hypocritical of you as a debtor to single out late-term abortions as a problem. If you truly stand by your position, you would not differentiate from a late term abortion and an abortion done a day after conception.
If you stand with your party, you cannot say that "only abortions before 5 months" as well as saying that "life begins at conception." Do you not see how those too conflict?
I am a proud Democrat. I know of NO Democrats who actually fit your Fox Nation description of them. Few of us support abortion "for any reason, especially late term! We ARE against carrying to term a fetus of rape, incest, and many of us are against bringing a baby into poverty where the ighly compassionate conservatives like to say..."No insurance? No job? No education? Tough! Get out of that bed, carry your baby in a sack and get a JOB! Don't ask ME for help!"
We have too many problems today to vote for only ONE issue, THAT would be stupid! Especially when that one issue would lead to FAR MORE "infant deaths after birth", where America was a world leader before "Obamacare" We ranked 174th out of 193 world countries! Those worse than us were mostly 3rd world countries with NO health care. Most communist countries bettered us!
A "One track mind" is something my mother, father, teachers, always told me was a bad thing. I know they were rig.... er, "correct".
I can't see the reasoning behind radical protection of an unborn, while not giving a DAMN about what happens to them after their first breath! Yes, I think compassionate Democrats SHOULD be proud, and continue to put the welfare of needy Americans on a more prioritized level those greedy ones who think their yachts are better investments than the American people who are not so fortunate!
The "selling" of body parts from a dead fetus is no different than the selling of body parts from a dead adult. It should be done to cover the expense, not for profit. I'm sure that is difficult since most doctors work FOR profit, many, if not most, let's admit, are conservatives. THEY, not Planned Parenthood, will profit, if any is made. It's a shame what the FOX Nation has done to that organization that many women AND babies owe their lives to! The "One track mind" is alive and well ... along with those women who used to end up in alleys after a botched abortion! As conservatives are so fond of saying, bad guys will get guns no matter what! Realistically, terrified women will get abortions, no matter what! Support Planned Parenthood! For our daughters sake!
You truly are the epitimy of every Democrat I talk with. You just described to a tee what my post described. You sit there and say you personally are against late term abortions WHILE SUPPORTING THEM WTH YOUR VOTE! I never hear a peep out your ilk when the Democrat party prevents the GOP from stopping abortions past 5 months(uness life of mother or other extreme cases). You are a complete hypocrite with absolutely NO compassion for the most vulnerable among us. Your SICK mentality says to kill the Baby because it might be poor! Inhuman!
With your rhetoric you never once mentioned my analogy of voting for a Ku Klux Klan member. If you are not a one issue voter, could you vote for a KKK member if you agreed with his other views? CAN YOU SEE YOUR HYPOCRISY? Oh you wll say you could never vote for someone who was a racist because he has no compassion for Black people, yet you have no problem voting for those who support killng late term babies for any reason. CAN YOU GRASP THAT KIND OF DENIAL OF WHO YOU ARE?
Your mindless bleeding heart mentality is the very reason we have so many single mothers with children and no father to support them. You are the idiots who never want to address this selfish self love culture that creates a need for welfare.
How about addressing the CORE reasons why our children have no fathers supporting them! It's moral breakdown in our nation. It is the sexual revolution but you could care less. You are fine with big Government social programs being the fathers of our children. This is why so many kids join gangs, but of course your side could care less about the problems of broken homes. You never say a thing about all the Black on Black killings and the huge numbers of kids joining gangs.
You spew the same lies that Conservatives do not care for our children. We care so much that we want to bring back the FAMILY UNIT where a father is supporting our children, not some cold distant social program. We want our children to feel loved, not bandoned! We are fine with helping children with their needs. We would force able bodied people to stand in food bank lines and watch how fast they find a job or show that they had money from under the table to pay for their food.
GOVERNMENT IS NOT THE ANSWER! It is suppose to be a stop gap emergency help, not a way of life.
If you have an ounce of compassion, address the core resons for broken homes and fatherless children. SPEAK OUT ABOUT IT rather than constantly putting welfare bandaids on the problem.
Do you like making ludicrous remarks of how we blindly follow some Fox Nation view? I was a conservative long before there was ever a Fox news network and guess what, Fox listened to Conservatives and agreed with them, not the other way around.
I did NOT say I was against late term abortions, I said I don't LIKE them (in so many words). What I AM against is not giving a woman the choice, within reason, to make her own decision. You are obviously a religious man. It seems many religious men (mostly) have decide that THEY are GOD, that THEY have the right to judge. If I was a religious man I would have to say "Let GOD handle it." Isn't that what Jesus said?, That only HE should sit in judgement? By the way, YOU are the epitome of what I call a Christian Conservative, for want of a four letter word..... I really don't like to be nasty, It's not my Atheistic way, but then, I don't like to be talked down to either.
If I really COULD believe, I would try to be a better Christian than those who go around saying people are stupid because they have a different belief. I happen to think that if any "higher power" was to judge ME, that I would likely fair better than many of those .... damn! what were those letters???
AGAIN YOU REFUSED TO ADDRESS MY ANALOGY TO VOTING FOR A KKK MEMBER! You are starting to be another waste of time Liberal deserving of beng banned. Either answer the question or don't waste my time with your worthless denials of your lack of compassion and humanity for human life.
Tell me how many times have YOU JUDGED me or Christians or Conservtives for what you do not agree with? You just judge me how many times in your post? Can you spell hypocrite AGAIN!
You just said "Few of us support abortion "for any reason, especially late term!" Now you change your tune and say "I don't like them".
LOL, add liar to your inhumanity. Gee, why don't you like them if they are not killing an innocent human life? If they are but tissue, why would you not like them?
Tell me in all of your hypocritical stupidity, why is it judging when a Conservative or Christians stands up for the right of life for our innocent unborn Babies, and trying to protect their lives, but when you judge people who you call racists, it is not judging?
Do you even have some semblance of intellect to see your total hypocrisy?
I guess in that little arrogant world of Liberalism, or feminism, when you attack other's for their beliefs and opinions it is not judging but when we shine a light on your inhumanity, you call us judgemental.
News flash, for you to support the right to kill late term unborn babies for any reason, you have the humanity of Hitler. You make racists look good.
I did not consider the YOUR analogy worthy of an address, however I saw other unworthy comments that were.
What I said was "FEW of us support abortion...etc." I am one of those who does NOT. However, there are some reasons I DO support abortion. One being, it saved my first wife's life (at least for a couple of years that she had to spend with her other two daughters (and ME). A conservative (Catholic) doctor in my entire state, was given the power to choose which life would be saved, he chose the embryo, I chose my wife and the children's mother! OUR doctor also made that choice and gave her an "unauthorized abortion"! I will always be grateful, as will my daughters! If you don't consider that some semblance of intellect, then you are just another reason why I am not a Christian,... with a one track mind. Oh, and...HYPOCRITE. That should be satisfactory. As they say, it takes one.....
You have got to be kidding right? Who on earth is talking about life of mother abortions? NO ONE IS DENYING THOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, I can see I'm wasting my time here. You clearly made my case about people such as yourself who support late term abortions for any reason with your vote. (NOT LIFE OF MOTHER ABORTIONS). The GOP also supports life of mother abortions! We are talking about late term abortons for ANY REASON! The Democrat prty supports those and when you vote for them, YOU are supporting them.
Hae a great life living in that little world where you can deny the inhumanity you support with your vote.
It merits a huge debate on the phoniness of most Democrats. They have lost all sense of humanity and purely vote for the politicians who will give them free stuff. They lack the integrity to admit they could care less about a human Baby's life while they will say they do.
For you to call anyone stupid who points out their phoniness is laughable. The fact of the matter is, you hate people like myself pointing out your hypocrisy and your total lack of compassion for the most vulnerable of our people.
I agree to this entirely! How dare people support a candidate who disagrees with the time an abortion should be outlawed? It's the same thing as support someone who wants to wipe out any and all non-caucasians in the US population, it's in fact even worse in some ways.
You truly are the epitimy of every Democrat I talk with. You just described to a tee what my post described.
