Brazile: Forget Obama's Abortion Radicalism—Gas is $4!

Who cares if Barack Obama won't protect a child who is born alive after an abortion? Gas is over $4/gallon!

So argued Donna Brazile when Bill Bennett pressed her on the matter today. The issue arose during a post-Obama press conference kibitzing session on CNN's Situation Room. Bennett was making the point that the complaisant media failed to press the candidate on tough issues.

So what? There’s not a damn thing you Dems are gonna do to lower the price. In fact, what you’ll do is make it go up even more

I’d be grateful if people would ping to pro-life lists.

Is gas now the moral equivalent of war?

Liberals do this tactic a lot. You hear it over and over with the gay marriage debate. They will say things like “There’s a war going on, gas is $4 a gallon, global warming is a huge problem, millions live in poverty, and these blankety blank conservatives want to talk about gay marriage. We shouldn’t be discussing gay marriage, we should discuss these other important issues.”

The tactic is used to deflect criticism of gay marriage rulings issued by courts. They say there are so many other issues out there, that gay marriage isn’t important. Yet it was important enough to these liberals to spend millions of dollars to drag it into court in the first place.

What do you say to someone who doesn’t want to discuss an issue on its merits, but rather, says that it’s not as significant as some other really important issue?

Obviously Donna “Brazen One” Brazile doesn’t care about the regular people. What a dolt!

Barack wants higher gas prices, more constitutional rights for jihadists and abortion on demand. And he has a pretty good chance of becoming the POTUS.

Enough to piss off a saint. And I'm no saint.

It’s a shame her parents didn’t make the “right” decision.

You don't - you can't. You're not allowed to debate them, because you're obviously a bigot.

‘Who cares if Barack Obama won’t protect a child who is born alive after an abortion? Gas is over $4/gallon!’

‘In liberal talk the above is the equivalent to saying; who cares what Obama stands for we have an election to win!’
