so you're saying that 59 million americans didn't think for themselves? Wow - how...hmm. degrading of you. I thought freedom of choice was a part of this country - evidently that only applies to killing babies then?
"killing babies" sounds like pigeon holing a certain point of view - isn't there a better way to make that statement? certainly that viewpoint could be perceived as much more then "killing babies" by a large number of american women, and in fact, many would take offence to that statement, as i do. i believe in freedome of choice, but i certainly don't condone "killing babies" - that's really offensive to see.
Your choice of language is so very mature. Sometimes conservatives tend to forget that, oh, my goodness(!), liberals have feelings, too. Conservatives are so busy pretending that they're being persecuted, when they're the motherfucking *majority*, that it makes me sick.
Plus, I think the point of the SW Texas comment completely flew past your little head and hit an innocent bystander. The comment was about how even in a state where a Democratic vote is futile, some people made that choice anyway.
Good, I made my point. It should be offensive. I think my choice of language was effective. I understand that everyone has feelings and I've not personally attacked anyone, so if your feelings are hurt because I attacked an issue, then oh well. I'm not calling anyone stupid or hateful or anything else for making a choice in an election. It doesn't matter if you're a minority or a majority. You can still be persecuted or discriminated against. I never claimed to be persecuted - I said that you were being intolerant and ignorant in your logic, or lack thereof - considering your argument had no foundation other than "you're stupid because you don't agree with me" Sorry, I left that kind of argument on the playground many, many years ago.
larissa, this is the rapport of the defeated minority. All us bush supporters are evangelical unthinking christians in middle america. If that were the case, bush couldn't have won, there simpl aren't enough evangelical christians.
This is that famous liberal 'tolerance' that we hear so much about and that is so appealing, tolerance for ideas that jibe with your own but outright indignant bigotry at those that oppose you. The hubris of extremist scumbags, if I can be trusted to make a point
Rick - if you cannot be civil in my LJ you will not be allowed to continue posting in it. Please apologize. No one else has gone to the extremes of insult that you have.
