Auh, yeah, it most certainly does.
Those who marked their ballots for this guy willingly extended him the power to expand the horrendous deeds done in "little Auschwitzes" everywhere. Pretending the mass homicide of babies is just a peripheral issue hardly worth mentioning is not an option for a Christian.

Pretending the mass homicide of babies is just a peripheral issue hardly worth mentioning is not an option for a 'Christian'.
Except of course unless babies are:
* citizens of foreign countries with large oil reserves.
* actual babies, not hypothetical punishment for 'sin'.
* not 'Christian', and killed by indirect means such as starvation or sanction restricting medical supplies.
* gay.
Eight years of a Republican Presidency, mostly with a Republican Congress, and what did they do to end abortions?
Voting for McCain was a vote for eeevil abortionists!!!

This is the typical blinkered, black and white thinking that's so typical of the Sith the Cybermen fundie Christians. As a person grows and matures through the years, one is brought face-to-face with the inescapable truth that life is a shifting sea of grey, rather than the stark due-chrome jinsisted upon by the immature mind.
To quote the late, great George Patrick Dennis Carlin regarding the hypocrisy of those who call themselves "pro-life":
"If you're pre-born, you're fine; if you're pre-school, you're fucked."
@dg, about 85% of the people I have met who are anti-abortion are male, in favor Iraq and the death-penalty. I guess it is the area. Actually I heard thousands of fundie Bush apologists who voted for him in 2004 say they disagreed with certain stances of his on the economy and the war. I guess these hypocrites think its okay to be more than a one issue voter if you are a REPUBLICAN.
Abortions actually decreased under Bill Clinton, they appear to be on the increase but most stats on the tubes only have last century stats that are up to date (I wonder why) Oh yes - Boosh was in charge the last eight.
Legalizing abortion only slightly increased USA stats probably because folk were not doing this in back room situations.
Making abortions illegal would be a disaster.
Barb, why do you care anyway? You won't be around much longer.
Since abortion is mentioned exactly as many times in the Bible as rapture(a big fat zero) and these people have absolutely zero respect for babies once they are born(or they wouldn't have voted for Bush who destroyed our healthcare system for the poor for his greedy buddies), I would suggest that the hypocrites at RR need to start reading the Bible, praying, and worshipping God instead of the Republican party.
What about all the people whose deaths Bush was responsible for in Iraq - oh, and let's not forget the American soldiers and those of other nations too. Bush has blood on his hands quite directly. And don't forget, these deaths are due to Bush's lying! Lake of fire for Bushie! It will truly be a burning Bush!
@#830926: Well, I was specifically talking about people who are vocal about it, the ones who will drag it into the conversation - I'm sure, here, a majority of people of both sexes would be against it if asked.
@dg
However, there's a difference between being against abortions, and supporting their banning. Many people are against abortion, that's true, but I'm willing to wager, if asked further, many of the people you'd ask would follow up with "But I'd never take away someone's right to do so if they saw fit." I could be wrong, but that's an answer I see rather often.
@Efrain
It's referring to Godwin's Law:
As any Internet conversation grows longer, the probability of an inappropriate comparison to Hitler or the Nazis progresses toward one.
First of all it would be infanticide, not homicide. Second abortions don't kill babies, they kill small clumps of cells that might one day have become a baby.
Or they could have been lost to a miscarriage, or died in the womb, or any number of other things that would mean it wouldn't end up a baby.
*sigh* This is Hitler, take a good look:

This is not Hitler:

Now you know the difference.
"Yes, I'm an Obama Supporter but that doesn't mean I support his abortion policy."

No it doesn't, have you supported every single one of Bush's views? Every single one of his misguided policies? Do you support every damn mistake Bush has ever made as president? If your answer is anything other than yes to each question then please have a coke and a smile and shut the fuck up.
"The breath of life" is, Biblically speaking, the point at which the soul enters the body; a blastocyst or any fetus incapable of breathing on its own doesn't meet that criteria. An estimated 50% of all fertilized human eggs never attach to the womb, another 25% are aborted (often without the woman even noticing). So it would seem that the Christian God doesn't find abortions nearly as abhorrent as many of His followers. And BTW, if Christ thought abortions were so sinful, you'd think he might have mentioned that. Just once.
I said this in my history class and I'll say it here.
IT'S THE ECONOMY, STUPID. (And yes, I know it's a quote. It's a very fitting quote.)
Face it, fundtards, nobody CARES about fetuses (unless they've currently got one they'd rather not) or whether gays can get married when they're in debt up to their eyeballs.
(Not that I'm saying Instant Good Economy, Just Add Obama. I'm just saying that people who voted for him, at the time, believed that his plan was better and that that trumped legislating morality. So, again, it's the economy, stupid.)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
