Prob because the guy is a very religious man, and the democratic party is the abortion on demand party? These people have nowhere else to go, so they glom onto the GoP.
Abortion on demand? Does lying for Jesus make it no longer a sin?
Many liberals/democrats, if not most oppose abortion. Pro-Choice is not pro-abortion. It means not forcing one's views on other people, even if they disagree with it.
Good points for the most part, but I would say having to choose between homosexuals and drug addicts is a false choice. I prefer to keep both groups far from the children in my life as both are a dangerous influence and homosexuals are often drug addicts as well.
I hope you don't actually try to pawn yourself off as Christian.
"Gee, I wonder where she ever got that idea? Could it be..THE BIBLE!"
Notice how 'the bible' replaces 'satan'. Yeah, I went there. She's an insane bat who forms her opinions based upon ancient mythological texts written by superstitious people. What's more harmful, homosexuality or superstitious politicians who wish to make public policy based on mythologies?
That is actually not true. Here is the law that Jefferson authored.
"Whosoever shall be guilty of Rape, Polygamy, or Sodomy with man or woman shall be punished, if a man, by castration, if a woman, by cutting thro' the cartilage of her nose a hole of one half inch diameter at the least."
The word homosexuality did not even exist until the 1800's. Sodomy was the term used to define the act; however, there were no terms used to describe what is commonly referred to today as Homosexuals. The closest equivalent would be sodomites, which need I say, most americans are guilty of.
Jefferson was quite liberal as the common punishment for sodomy during this time was death.
History lesson done for today. Carry on.
Jefferson defined sodomy as man to man. So much for your history lesson.
And Abraham Lincoln spoke in favor of slavery.... but that doesn't mean he was right.
Thomas Jefferson also believed in the inferiority of Africans, though he carried on a relationship with one of his slaves for 40 years. and had 6 children with her.
So do you still want to assert everything one of our best asserts is right?
If you haven't figured it out smart people are free to say ignorant and uninformed things... look in the forum it happens regularly.
There is no direct evidence Jefferson had sexual relationships with a negro slave.

This is a myth.
All the DNA tests show is that a male Jefferson fathered some of her children. There were other Jefferson males other than Thomas and they were present at Monticello at the right times.
