The Republican Abortion Trick

I've been keeping an eye on the election, and reading some of the discussion forums around the Internet. And one of the issues that is raised repeatedly is the issue of abortion. "Obama wants to kill babies etc."

And it made me think about how the Republican party loves to use this issue to drive a wedge into America and try and grab the Christian vote.

But it is about time people woke up and smelled reality for a moment. We've just had a president in office for eight years who claims to be a devout Christian. A man who has absolutely made his position on stem cell research and abortion very clear. But notice how abortion is still legal?

The fact is if McCain dies, and ultra right religious fanatic Sarah Palin becomes president for the next four years, I guarantee that abortion will still be legal.

I don't think that any Republican has any real intention of changing anything. Clearly they don't really care about saving babies, or they would do something about our horrendous infant mortality rate.

I think Republicans just love to trot out this issue over and over again, each election time. Perhaps combined with a gay marriage vote and maybe something about flag burning, as a trick to lure the gullible to the voting booth.

I just wonder how many times they will do this before some idiots finally realize that Republicans don't give a shit about babies, pre-birth, or after birth.

So how about we stop with the absurd attacks against Obama for 'wanting to kill babies.' We might just as well claim that his hybrid runs on bludgeoned kittens.
