Washington, DC -- A new survey that details the beliefs of evangelical voters and why they supported Barack Obama or John McCain finds those voters who supported Obama don't believe government can reduce abortions. Their views appear to be at odds with studies showing pro-life legislation save lives.

What a BS excuse. Ignorance is no excuse.

Morons. But of course they are. . .they supported Obama.

Sorry. Posted wrong pic. Just learning to post. I meant to post this one:

People find excuses to validate in their minds what they wish to believe in the first place.

I’m with you - ignorance is no excuse, ESPECIALLY when it’s wilful ignorance.

Same with this election in general - God made sure that we knew that this was a big Good v Evil decision, and we have no excuse for choosing evil

Man! You just can't fix stupid. They're gonna’ be surprised what their vote for the most ardent supporter of FOCA will do. Now, the push is on for “Safe Suicide” whatever the hell that means. Doesn't that qualify for “oxymoron” status? They're gonna’ get change, all right. I'm gonna’ keep my head down, because this is going to be a vicious battle and all of us who try to fight it are going to lose. I've seen the future, and I'm all for a bailout (in some circles they call it the Rapture). I want out!

This describes exactly what is behind the pro-abortion movement. They KNOW it's wrong to kill babies, but justify it by various means.

And I thought I was stupid.

I like the first picture too, as metaphor.

Ah, that explains it: The grotesquely stupid and morbidly idiotic voting demographic was confused by the obvious.

[Brett66]

Yeah, and these are also the same geniuses that voted for him on the economy.

[rollo tomasi]

How are they going to justify to God that they voting for a candidate who promised to use their (Citizens) money to fund murder? Reprobates is the only word to describe Obama/these “Christians”.

[autumnraine]

Evangelicals for Obama woke up on November 5 with a drunk blackout hangover thinking “Did I do what it seems like I did?” and began to rationalize in thier mind why they allowed themselves to be so hypnotized by The Liar.

[rollo tomasi]

voting=voted

Preachers need to focus on educating their flock. No one who opposes abortion can vote for a Democrat in good conscience.

Now, if you like sticking forks in babies heads, then by all means, Barack is for you.

Stupid people don’t know they’re stupid......because they’re stupid.

But I personally think some of those pretending to be stupid voted for obama because they believed him when he said he’d give them free money. That 95% tax cut free money to people who don’t even pay taxes is more likely what they fell for.

I don’t believe that they “didn’t know”. I believe that they choose not to know. What they don’t know can’t make them feel guilty. May God have mercy on us all.

I know “evangelicals” like this. They tend to be under 35, believe in government wealth “redistribution,” and pay lip service to being pro-life while not seeing it as the holocaust that it is.

To be honest, until I was a teenager and attended a lecture on how abortion affects men, I didn’t wake up to the issue. And I was born again, nominally pro-life, had seen the pictures, etc.
