Contrary to most conservatives on this board none of the moderates or the conservatives voting on my poll including me supports abortion. Anybody who claims otherwise at least about me is telling a lie.
The Votes are in and no one supports Abortion

Yep, and the other results are in and only the liberals of the board believe that voting for a murder supporting candidate does not equate to supporting murder.
All you and your poll has shown us is that those that voted for Obama don't have the Holy Spirit convicting them of their sinful support of abortion. -
2) Yeah, I voted for Barack Obama, but I will not do so again. -
"Everybody's doing it"
Probably every teenager that ever lived has used this excuse when they got caught doing something wrong.
Just because some agree with you does not make it right.
Obama was openly pro-abortion in his campaign. When you voted for him, you were voting for a man who promised to support abortion. If he had claimed to be pro-life and then turned out after the election to be pro-abortion, that would be a different matter altogether.
It's like the example I gave before. If someone came to your house and told you they planned on robbing the bank down the street, and then asked if you could loan them your gun, if you loaned that person your gun and they robbed the bank, would you be responsible? Of course you would, and there are laws on the books for this crime, it is called being an accessory. -

So, how is it that I'm a hypocrite again? -

Some of those you keep arguing with voted third party in the last election, so your justification to them is mute anyhow. The platform of the CP explicitly says all life is sacred.
While Republicans have failed to stop the practice, they do not promote it. Some attempts have been made to stop it, and either the political will was not there, or the Democrats used some legislative game to block the attempt. It is not much of a difference, but it is a difference.
When was the last time the Democrats nominated or even ran a pro life candidate, effective or not? This was not really an issue before 1973.
You basically use two arguments to justify a vote.
1. The Republicans are not any better, which has been proven not valid.
2. I vote for the whole range of issues. Since when did the economy, foreign policy, immigration, social security, etc have the same impact as the legalization of taking innocent life?
You need to come up with new reasons. Maybe it is time for you to stop hammering Republicans as an excuse and do something within your own party to put a stop to the practice since you seem to just have to be a Democrat. -
Do you make exceptions about abortion ? I mean extreme cases, or no ? Like that 9 years old raped by her stepfather in Brazil ? I have it hard to support the fact she would, at 10, have a baby from a rape by her stepfather.

Done, new post created.

I don't approve of strip clubs at all. The fact that I voted for a man who is all for strip clubs and is making sure strip clubs are free and full access to all doesn't mean anything. I still am fully against strip clubs and you can't say that I support them even though, by my vote, I guaranteed that the very thing I disapprove of continues.
*Disclaimer - The above is just an attempt at trying to make the issue clear. I do not, nor ever have supported strip clubs or voted for those who made sure strip clubs are available to all.* -

If voting for the approval of partial birth abortion isn't supporting abortion I don't know what is.

And no, I don't support a 9 year old who was raped by an adult to have an abortion. I do, however, support the retroactive abortionof the adult to raped her. Okay, that was somewhat sarcastic, but you get the point. -
