Tea Party Activists Tell Republicans to Avoid Abortion
Washington, DC -- The fiscally conservative tea party activists were crucial to electing pro-life candidates in the 2010 mid-term elections, but now they are calling on Republicans in Congress to avoid social issues like abortion.

What I'm saying is you can't stop it with laws, cops, or enforcement, so legislators should stay out of it. As a chaplain, you have more power to stop abortions than a congressman, senator, or president, because it's men like you that can reach some of these women and give them the support they need.

I bookmarked it for later reading.
Thank you!
FR is in danger of moving to a model similar to DU where voices of reason are stomped on.
To make headway on abortion which would keep social conservatives happy REQUIRES capturing the Presidency, House and 60 seats in the Senate.
Bush made the mistake of attacking the conservative base. Lets not make the same mistake by attacking the independent voter who helped us pick up 60 house seats which really only brought us to where we were in 2004.
I am pro-life but also becoming more of a realist and concentrate on cleaning up RED states before we tackle BLUE.
I do believe someone once said something about removing the mote in your own eye before you help someone else with their problem.
We have infiltration problems within the NRA, Churchs of all denominations and the Republican party at both state and federal level. This should be where we concentrate our efforts.
Where the heck is this coming from? I consider myself a Tea Partier; and getting the government out of abortion is very high on my list of “must do right now” things. Last I heard Tea Parties are Constitutionalists and believe in the sanctity of life.
True Tea Partiers believe abortion is evil. Only lurkers and RINOs would argue otherwise.
Sure you can. Abortion should be illegal and people who practice it should be prosecuted.
Just because some people will find a way to slaughter their own offspring, doesn't mean the government had to aid and abet it by making it legal and funding it.

Actually, that would stop it very quickly. Have laws against it and enforcement, and you'd be rid of almost all abortion.
The question for you, Domenad, is whether or not you support the US Constitution. It already protects the unborn, but it is being ignored.
First, it says that the Constitution applies to us and to our posterity. Our posterity is the unborn. This is in the preamble, the purpose statement, of the Constitution. Therefore, there is no opinion that can be rendered that contradicts the preamble. If a judge says, "abortion is OK" and the Constitution says "posterity" is covered, then...
Second, the Constitution says that no life can be taken without due process of law.
Therefore, all abortions should require a trial, a lawyer for the condemned, and all other aspects of due process. These are to establish the GUILT of the intended victim of some capital CRIME.
Life, Domenad, is the basic right. Without it, no other rights or issues will mean anything to you. You'll be dead.
Anyone who takes power to take life in one area will eventually extend it to others.
That's why paraplegics, elderly, ill, mentally deficient, etc., are all in danger.
If they can kill babies, then they can kill you.
Hell no! No compromise on murder!!
You look like zot material to me.
Thanks Jim.
NO COMPROMISE ON BUTCHERY!!
GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL OR GET THE HELL OFF FR!!!
Here’s a question, and it’s a real question not a question that is supposed to be a statement: Can you really see a woman who wants to abort her child saying “Oh well it’s illegal, so I won’t abort my kid.” It’s my opinion that a woman who genuinely wants an abortion either feels she has no other choice or is is determined not to suffer a pregnancy. You can offer support to the former, but the latter is a lost cause. I just don’t think prison time is going to dissuade them, and the political casualties we suffer on this exercise allow leftists to further implement their agenda.

Efing abortionist troll!! Get the hell off this pro-life web site!!
No, but Jim has made it pretty clear that FR will be pro-life.
Number two, I'm pro-life
Right, there are just "eight million things" that are more important" and these people are "determined" to kill babies and we can't save them.
That doesn't sound at all pro-life to me.
Wasting blood and ammo on a lost cause is romantic and glamorous and ultimately futile.
Sounds exactly like what the Whigs were saying about slavery.
And thirdly, Mr. Douchebag Sr., don't you ever tell me anything about FR or where I should go.
Though I must admit that I THOUGHT about telling you where to go, I never actually wrote it down.
The Tea Party needs expelled those that signed the letter if it wants to maintain any influence going forward.
Piss off, redneck. Go drink another Hamm's, it's only two o'clock, you want to finish that twenty-four pack by the time your wife gets home so you can get to the beatings by five.
One more baby murdering abortion pushing post from you and you get the ZOT!!
zot
THAT WAS A GOOD ONE!!! I can smell ozone from here!
