Support and Defend the Constitution

When it is a choice between the life of the mother or the baby, then it should be left up to the mother.

HOWEVER, cases where the mothers life is in danger represent a TINY fraction of all the abortions performed in this country. This is a very, very weak argument for keeping abortion legal.

I typically avoid this issue but after raising daughters and having all their friends over to the house over years am told that I don't get to decide what a woman does with her body. I am told this issue should be off limits for fat white guys to decide.
 
What were they wrong about??

Slavery, women's voting rights, hygiene. I amazed anyone would even have to ask that question, and like I said, our constitution has been amended a few times. Somebody thought it was wrong. Who's logic skills are weak on this one?
 
It's a good thing only a very small fraction of the populace thinks like you. Imagine where we would be today if most American and European men walked your walk in 1915-1918 or 1939-1945 or 2001-today. Pacifism doesn't work unless you want to be overrun by dictators and thugs.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of evil in the world (both in our own neighborhoods--thats why we have the police--and in other countries--thats why we have a military). God bless the men and women and uniform (both locally and nationally).
religion and the military in the same sentence...nice. how about korea,vietnam? you still think iraq was about 9/11. what are we doing in afghanistan? what's the goal?

Did you know--

That the words slave or slavery do not appear in the Constitution because there was a tremendous amount of friction over slavery at the time our country was formed. There are references to in the 3/5 person clause, the right to restrict the trade and the reference to the someone held to service that escapes to another state. However, the constitution did not make slavery legal. The amendment was added to make it very clear that slavery was not legal once everyone got their heads screwed on straight.

That the original Constitution does not guarantee anyone the right to vote--not men, women, whites, blacks, etc.? That was to be left up to the states to decide. The 15th and 19th amendments clarified that the right to vote could not be denied based on sex or race. However, the constitution still does not give everyone a right to vote.


The amendments seem to be clarifications made to the original constitution, not corrections of previous egregious errors.

Read it through in detail.

Maybe you should ask the chosen one--Obama--what the goal is in Afghanistan. He seems intent on winning the war there.

How about answering the question about WWI and WWII before we delve into the other minor wars? Where would we be if there had been a couple hundred million Bob's walking around the US, Russia and Europe in the early to mid 1900's.

If you can't come up with an answer, here it is. We would be in a world of hurt shouting Heil Hitler to each other with no more Jews, no more Muslims, no more Christians, etc. in the world.

Pacifists are only pacifists until it hits home directly. If someone came into your home to kill you and your family, would you defend yourself or simply sit there and let it happen?


I assume that you've read the Bible. Remember the old testament, I believe that is a part of the Bible? Seems to me that the Bible makes at least one or two references to the military and winning battles with God's help. Doesn't it or did I misread something.
