I am a conservative. My views reflect the notion that people assume a
degree of personal responsibility for the actions that they engage it.
That means playing the cards you are dealt, and not looking to pass the
blame off onto other vague entities. A major philosophical difference
between liberals and conservatives.
Your arguments are ill-formed in unsubstantial. I can't afford the time
to banter with you.
In other words, you are in denial and are unprepared to back up what you
believe with anything that resembles logic or rationality. You beliefs
are based on superficial sound byte re-enforcement, based on biased
opinions of other equally sincere but misguided people.
Are you capable of an independant thought or are all of your premises
based on cut-N-paste articles?
You've avoided answering the question at least 100 times.
Does your wife believe the government should be able to command her to
bring her pregnancy to full term?
They don't have to, since she feels that terminating it early is akin to
murder.
But since we don't try to prevent murder by forbidding people from
coming into contact with one another I guess, by the same token, the
government should not prevent people from seeking an abortion. But if
someone does it, they should be arrested for murder.
Why is the issue of abortion the only one where liberals favor a
person's right to choose? When it comes to programs like education,
healthcare, retirement, the right to carry arms, etc, you prefer
government mandates. Seems a bit duplicitous doesn't it?
I can pretty much guarantee you won't answer the question because you
probably don't know the answer yourself. And, just so you know, I
consider this pure speculation. No assertion of "fact."
And like so many other liberals, you'd be wrong.
