Have you ever had an abortion? I’ve had three. My sister says that makes me a good liberal

I guess I am a good liberal because I have never had an abortion either.

I guess you misread the post.

Well, it doesn't any too clearly have a point, does it? I would have taken the point to be that having an abortion is some sort of rite of initiation to Club Liberale. If that is accurate, then this thread is merely further evidence of the fact that there is no level of disgracefulness that some folks somewhere will not stoop to...

The kind that doesn't vote on election day.

And people display the complete lack of understanding of liberal philosophy, yet again.

You want liberals voting. You don't want authoritarians voting. Rosie is just a kook.

This one is TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy. However, saying having an abortion equates to being liberal is like saying being a racist equates to being Republican. Sure, I know more Republicans who ARE racists than Democrats who've had abortions, but I probably wouldn't start a thread with that assertion - just not nice, or wise, or fair. Where are the Fair and Balanced people when you need them?

If the intent was to insult I would have written it like this:

What makes a Good Liberal!


I was shocked anyone would write it period. It does show how casual abortion uh choice is taken. It certainly does not look like it was one of those life or death options for the woman. But what the h*ll if it makes you a good liberal.
