What I want to know is why reps are so quick to believe that dems want infanticide. There are more dems than reps in this country. How could someone (reps) believe that so many people, probably including some friends, relatives, and coworkers actually want to legalize infanticide? It's beyond absurd. There is something very wrong if otherwise rational people can be so easily convinced that this is true. This is very concerning.

We believe it because you vote for politicians who are open to it, as demonstrated by Northam's statements.

Just like Trump, they believe telling outright lies is justifiable as long as it gets you what you want.

And they are too dense to even realize how obviously obtuse and hypocritical they are.

If the Republicans cannot make their point about abortion without telling lies, then they have no point. That’s the bottom line.

Why? Because those Independent, swing voters don't have the same issue with abortion that the conservatives do -- they just don't.

This whole bringing it to the fore front may be problematic. Swing voters are not anti- choice...they just aren't.
The Republicans have enough people who will lie to make their point. No need to make it a campaign issue. Just use talk radio and the grapevine to get everybody all worked up before the election.

Just like here. Present 1/2 truths and lies and stick to it. Works like a charm.

As far as this poll goes it is far more than just the right at over 80%.


There's no hysteria, just outrage. The left is the ones having their ignorance played like a fiddle.


See carrot, pull cart.
