Sooo.. we protect frozen embryos, but it's justified for soldiers to die?

[nini]

:wtf:

I cannot wrap my brain around the uproar over frozen embryos that will be thrown away if not used but let's send our soldiers to get killed for the idiot son's fuck ups?

My head is going to explode here. The arrogant, disgusting, sick and evil fools stand there and dare lecture the rest of us on what the value of life is. :grr:


How about let's value the life of people that actually exist here. Let's respect the lives of our soldiers and only send them into harms way when it is the last resort. Let's help people with disabilities and disease - let's help them walk, cure their diseases and allow them to live pain free. WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND??????????????

These people are not only stupid they're evil. I'd buy their BS if they actually believed in valuing these lives after they're born. Like providing decent schools, clean air, an environment not on the edge of collapse. Fucking hypocrites from hell.


Pro life my ass.

1. it's incredible, isn't it?

sigh.

[Ioo]

2. You don't get it, To Republicans Life Starts at Conception... and ends

as soon as you are born. From them on, your on your own!

3. This sentiment was in a letter I just sent to my representatives.

I told them the hypocrisy of this was incredible.

Somehow, abortions and stem cells need to be stopped, because we must protect a life that hasn't yet begun. OK. Got it. I'll ignore the fact that the stem cells they want to use get thrown away in the trash. I guess that's a better option for those lives.

And I guess a soldier, with a spouse and kids somehow isn't entitled to this same consideration. So, a life being lived is less valuable than one that hasn't had that opportunity? Right?

I asked my reps to explain this reasoning to me, because it didn't wash in my book.

By the way, I have Jim Inhofe, Tom Coburn, and John Sullivan.

Could there possibly be worse representation?

5. Their high and mighty attitude makes me want to puke

WHO do they think they're kidding?



:puke:

15. The snake oil salesman

from Georgia - Phil Gingrey - is right up there in the 'worse' category. Wonder how many 'snowflake' babies he and the Missus have adopted? I cannot get my head around how anyone would send someone like him to Washington.

All his yapping about how people get medicines at affordable prices is ludicrous. I just spent $130 on eye drops. Fortunately, I have an eye surgeon who offsets what she can of these costs by providing as many samples as possible. (I'm on 4 different types right now). I'm lucky because this is a temporary thing for me - pity those who must take medication daily, forever!

[lies and propaganda]

4. 'they signed up for it'

Thats the demented logic they use to make themselves feel better that kids are dying.

Well, theys ure as fuck, did not sign up to invade countries and kill for oil and revenge.

[nini]

6. They didn't sing up to be killed for no reason though

We have a responsibility to make sure we don't abuse their service.


I'm not aiming that comment at you, but those who make that stupid ass claim.

[lies and propaganda]

16. my sentiments exactly...

as a former service person who was lucky enough to get out right before Bush was installed.

7. You know that a lot of Repukes helped co-sponsor the stem

cell bill, right? I'd already written a scathing letter to my Repuke congressman and had to send an apology after I discovered (thanks to someone here) he was actually one of many who co-sponsored the bill.

[nini]

8. yes... I referring to the idiots who were speaking this morning

about protecting life blah blah blah..

Yet, these same people get a boner over the war. You can't have it both ways.

[hashibabba]

10. Oh. Sorry. Yes, they were a bunch of idiots. Its really great

getting to watch them spout their poison, knowing that the Dems won't have any of it!

[TZ]

9. culture of (christian) life

These same people don't give a damn about kids after birth (especially if of color). Plus I have heard the same group be totally indifferent to the civilian deaths in Iraq as they are Muslims. I remember John Ashcroft coming up with some insane biblical quote insinuating that the people who died in the tsunami deserved it. Culture of life means lets make sure all the white, rich, Christian blond hair blue eyed republicans survive and thrive. Everyone else is worthless.:grr: :rant:

[JitterbugPerfume]

11. crazy convoluted logic

these "pro lifers" use

[Xenotime]

12. Some will say

embryos haven't made a choice. Soldiers did.

[nini]

13. then both are at the mercy of those in charge of them too

I know what you mean though

[MiniMe]

14. As Randi so often says, they care about you before you are born and

when you are about to die. Any other time....fuggaboutit

17. It's because there isn't lack of body armor tiny enough. n/t
