Right. I didn't mean to imply that Meghan came from a pro-abortion home. I was just speaking about what is happening generally in America today. Many polls have shown (surprisingly) that a greater percentage of young people today are against abortion when compared to the people of their parent's generation.
The t*rd does not fall far from the butt.

Yep, that seems to an accurate picture of her.
This generation has watched and lived through their parents marry, divorce, re-marry, blend-step families, create new families. I don’t think this current generation really views marriage as a sacred vow before God. I’m not saying I agree - I’m just saying that’s what they have lived.
In my neighborhood, the couples across from us, behind us, and on either side of us all broke up, remarried (sometimes several times) and they all have children. They are Christian families. None of them were in a situation of verbal or physical abuse.
Do you really think their children view marriage in the same way as previous generations before ‘no fault’ divorce? I don’t think so.
I’m not surprised Megan McCain believes in Gay marriage. And she’s right ... most of the younger generation agree with her. Considering their role models, it’s not surprising to find out they don’t view marriage as anything other than a temporary legal arrangment which you can un-do once you’re tired of it. To them, marriage is not a God thing, it’s a civil thing.
She's not pro-life. She believes that "life begins at conception" (per above article) but she also says that she is not going to judge someone that is pro-choice because it is “not her place to judge other people and what they do with their body.”

She is today's DixieChick(R).
I spent most of the weekend with a bunch of 16 to 19 year olds. The subject of gays came up in conversation (I was just listening to them talk, but not engaged in the conversation). None of them supported the gay lifestyle in anyway and felt no differently about it than I did 30 years ago (and today). I was actually quite surprised given all the brainwashing in the schools. These were not particularly religious kids... just all-American-types and all quite "hip" or whatever the term is these days.
We should not be so willing to accept the MSM mantra that "the younger generation agrees with her." I do not believe it to be true.
We need to nip this in the bud pronto by letting the "powers that be" in the GOP know without any doubt that Megan is a "not ready for primetime" non-starter whom we TOTALLY reject. Otherwise in four or eight years, she will be the Republican party standard bearer, the "face" of the new Republican Party who we must get behind and elect or else sit down and shut up. By then it will be too late.
One liberal Mccainiac is enough.
The only reason this attempt marriage to redefine marriage exist is because the state of marriage has degenerated over the last century. As Doug Wilson wrote, the call for same-sex “marriage” happens at the end of a society’s fall into perversion, not at the beginning of it.
I’m basing my assumption on conversations in my kids classrooms (as per my kids). The general concensus among the teens is, “What’s the big deal? Let them get married.”
30 years ago I don’t remember anyone even bringing up gay marriage as a topic for debate. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t even on the radar screen.
ooooh, all you need is luuuuuv
