Why do Pro-Lifers Like Senator Joe Lieberman?

[Pastor Larry]

You have a ... pro post-natal death ticket on the Republic side (pro-war and anti-widespread availability of medical care)).

Why do you people say these silly things? Desiring to defend life by the use of war is hardly pro-death, and to say that the Republicans are "anti-widespread availability of medical care" is simply silly and inaccurate. The question over the availability of medical care is not who should have it, but who should pay for it.

You guys are so desperate you have a hard time being honest about what the issues actually are. Are you afraid that if you correctly frame the issues that you won't have a chance?

In a thread, LadyEagle quoted this from a news story:

"Sources familiar with her schedule said that she also had a private session with Jewish Senator Joe Lieberman."

Joe Lieberman is pro-choice and when his name is introduced into a discussion I don't recall any anti-Obama person criticizing him in this forum for being pro-choice.

Barack Obama is pro-choice. When his name is introduced into a discussion it seems like there is a quick reaction to criticize him in this forum for being pro-choice.

Is the bottom line that as long as one is not running for president then he/she will not be criticized in this forum for being pro-choice, but if one is running for president then he/she wil be criticized in this forum for being pro-choice?

Or does someone like Joe Lieberman get a pass on the abortion issue because he supports Senator McCain for president and/or he is a supporter of Israel?

Does the simple mention of his name require that he be denounced as pro-choice? What was the context of the discussion at the time he was mentioned? Did that discussion center on the abortion issue? Or, are you just trying to create a false dilemma here?

It just might tilt back if the Red States have any say.

Not a chance. Even Red States in the presidential race, such as Arkansas, has 2 Democratic Senators and 3(out of 4) Democratic representatives - none of whom are in any danger of losing on November 4.

I don't see why any of this matters. so far neither party has shown it is willing to do what's needed to keep this nation afloat. Most are actively working to sink it what with globalization and endless wars, debt on top of debt, bigger more intrusive government, centralization of power into fewer and fewer hands. Not to mention how that now we're shoving a sharp stick in Russia's eye as if we want it to react in such a way as to give us pretext to go to war with them!

The people running this government are all wacked in the head and those that aren't soon will be when their handlers from the Tri Laterals and CFR get through with them.

Just vote for one of these wacked out people and be done with it already. None of them are going to live up to any promises and all of them will do what's best for numero uno no matter the cost to the well being of the United States of America.

Ken, your logical gymnastics here would beat even the Chinese 12 year olds. Guilt by association? Come on.

To your point: Some people appreciate Lieberman because they are not one-issue voters. You claim to be such. Why can't other people?

I don't know that not hearing someone be anti-Lieberman is the same is being for him since he is not running in this campaign. I know far too many people who would've jumped off the GOP bridge had McCain picked Lieberman. It would not have been a wise move having anyone who is not pro-life on the ticket with him. So it seems there is more consistency than you'd give credit for. Obama is the candidate, thus his record/views on abortion is fair game, just as it is for Biden, McCain and Palin.

It's a no brainer.

Lieberman is not running for president.

Obama is not just "pro choice". He is pro abortion.

anytime , anyplace, for any reason... all at public expense.
