Yet another social conservative wanting government to compel behavior from an unwilling populace.

Can this little guy ever be a willing participant in abortion?

(Palin_Rubion2012, please see after the linebreak.)

Two different arguments.

I agree abortion is wrong.

Where I disagree is that it’s the role of the Federal government to deal with the problem. I think Roe v. Wade should be repealed because this is a state issue, not because I want the Federal government deal with it the way I see fit.

I also know that if it did go back to the states, most would ban it. (California, New York, Massachusetts, etc... wouldn’t though)

And I’m willing to take 80% of a loaf rather than none. That way we can focus our energy on the few remaining holdouts.


The point was to illustrate that many social conservatives aren’t, as you say, just wanting to end the federal government’s funding/pushing of immoral issues. No, they don’t mind that the federal government has the power to push issues like that. They just want the issues to be *THEIR* issues.

And post #74 clearly shows that.

I’m amazed that so many people want our politicians to dictate want is and is not moral to the nation. *POLITICIANS*, for Pete’s sake!

That’s just the same as asking the Devil himself to dictate your morality.
