>> “I’m personally pro-abortion. Stab it, vacuum it out, hamburgerize it. It’s all good. But I’d NEVER force my views on the public and would have to vote pro-life.” Stand back and watch the nutters heads explode. <<

HA! I would LOVE it if some candidate tried that (especially if they were running in a RAT party primary and tried to pretend they were avowedly supportive of abortion-on-demand even though they plan to vote to ban it at the earliest opportunity)

You have so many scumbag pols trying to reverse tactic (like that creepy Paulbot Austin Petersen in Missouri pretending to be a "pro-life" candidate because says he PERSONALLY feels abortion is murder and morally wrong, even though he plans to vote AGAINST any restrictions on it, because he can't "force his views on others")

You shouldn’t listen to extremists. Perhaps these people shun antibiotics and other “unnatural” medical interventions, it doesn’t mean you should put any value to such opinions in your life.

If they want to take that extreme view of things let them keep it amongst themselves. Don’t let it effect you and your family.

Not qualified to frame himself as a “conservative writer”. He supports those who call themselves conservative, but hate their voting fodder.

How do we save the nation if we embrace those who slaughter the pre-born?

Basically, I couldn't give a $hit what a candidate is personally for. I want to know how they'll vote. Personally favoring or opposing something and not voting that way means you AREN'T, it means you're just lying.

Actually, no. You can’t. Individual lives and family are bedrock for conservatives.

“Honestly, I think you can support abortion and still be a conservative."

And that would make you a "science denier" - pro-abortion is the ending of a human life. You can think that that is OK, but cannot debate what it is.

I can’t see how the God in heaven will admit anyone who has promoted abortion. It would seem incompatible with scripture.

Jonah Goldberg has a base? Must be comprised of people who do not have a life.

Funny how so many so-called conservatives have been driven out, for the leftists they are (always have been), over the past three years.

Well, you can vote Democrat (pro abortion) and still be a Catholic. You can even be a pro abortion legislator and still receive communion in the Catholic Church.

You can be John McCain, or Jeff Flake, or Mitt Romney, etc..... and call yourself Republican.

You can call a dog’s tail a leg, but the dog still doesn’t have five legs.

In conclusion, you can call yourself anything you want and still act the opposite.

“I despise rape and child molestation. But none of these sins or crimes will go away, no matter what the courts say, no matter what laws are on the books.”

Do you believe rape and child molestation events would not increase if laws against such were removed?

“If you are trying to legislate morality it just won’t work. Human nature is too powerful. Sin will always be with us.”

If you legislate, or as the case is with most of the immoral law we have seen made here in America, create immoral law, or “rights” from the bench, the incidents of this immoral behavior becomes much more common, as accountability for this once illegal immoral behavior is removed from our justice system. With your reasoning, why have any laws at all?

She was just suspended during the bug zapper thread, but she quit posting.
If she is banned then she must have come back and did something else later.

Jonah outed himself two years ago.

This is just one more shred of evidence.

He’ll have a great career as one of the “kept republicans” for some network panel or other media outlet.

He’s a younger version of George Will.

Abortion is abhorrent but it should not be the tip of the spear of Conservatism and the saving of the Republic right now.

...and we need every vote that we can muster.

There appears to be a flaw in your logic.

I remember long ago Rush one had a guest host who said something like this:

“I’m a conservative, but I support abortion, and I support gun control, and I support gay marriage, and I support...”

He lasted one day, and Rush never made that mistake again.

Can you be a liberal and a conservative at the same time?
