What's So Funny?

Peanuts. Cracker jacks. Abu liberals. A choice peace of hate mail. And much more.

(Page 5 of 11)

Respectfully, though, I disagree with your saying, "It is not too long before the Democrats say openly (they already imply it) that orthodox Catholicism is 'un-American.'"

They won't ever -- as they will never say that being an "orthodox" (i.e., in their parlance: right-wing/evangelical/Pentecostal) Christian is also un-American, something else they imply-because they lack the guts and conviction to do so.

Sen. John Kerry exemplifies their fear of accurate, truthful words and direct speech. With the most liberal voting record in the U.S. Senate, he steadfastly refuses to acknowledge he is a liberal and campaign to cast himself as a conservative. That would be laughable, if he weren't the poster child for the overarching secularist, moral-relativistic, situational-ethics and environment-over-humans theology of the Democrats.

p>His and the Democrats' actions and words on abortion, as well as their waging the current war against the war on terrorism and rooting for the U.S. to fail in Iraq, are collectively more than an affront to America: In their own way, they are as dangerous as the words and actions of any terrorist. br> -- C. Kenna Amos Jr. br> Princeton, West Virginia /p>

George Neumayr's article on the party of partial-birth abortion certainly hits the nail on the head. Unlike hitting the head on the nail: the pledge you have to take, assuming you want Democratic senators to confirm you onto the Federal bench.

In these cases, it's compulsory to support sticking a steel rod into the skull of a baby and suck out its brains. Of course, there is a compassionate caveat -- you can only do this if the baby's head is still sticking out of its mother's womb waiting to take its first breath.

That's the sort of nuanced thinking you need when you're John Kerry and a member of the lefty middle-crasses. Though I'm not sure how this works with a breech birth, when the sprog, clearly sensing a lack of love, wisely decides to come out feet first.

Being non-nuanced, unsophisticated folk, conservatives tend to think sucking the brains out of babies is a bad thing. A very, very bad thing indeed. Can you believe that? How simply Billy-Bob and Jolene of them. What a bunch of ignorant flyovers.

Why can't they just become infected with the Mad Progressives Syndrome exhibited by the likes of Nancy Pelosi?.

"Progressives" believe that if said "fetus" should somehow survive being born to the abortion-mongering Kate Narals of the world, and then grow up to be a captured terrorist, held in a U.S. jail with panties on his head -- well, that's the bad thing. That's the real "non-human" rights issue to get your knickers in a twist over.

How do non-aborted, so-called humans go straight from goo-goo to ga-ga with no shame in-between? And even more bizarrely, shriek that it's the right who lack compassion, and eat Bambi burgers. (Okay -- I'll concede on the yummy Bambi burgers.)
