Pro-Life Doesn’t Have to Mean Supporting Live Ammunition

Some people are urging sober political Conservative Republicans who don’t like an extremist social agenda, to be upset that the religious fringe, (since McCain is and old man who had rough unhealthy physical experiences) could very likely try to dominate US policy if and when Sarah Pain becomes President. Others urge those who call themselves pro-life but don’t think rape victims who don’t want to be constantly reminded of a brute assaulter (relative or not) mixed up in their life, be forced to deal with the fact year after year that he fathered their child, to all of us in such positions, to realize that there is more than a touch of meanness behind Sarah’s sweet smile. Some want people to see the moose’s point of view that one of her kids was happily playing in the blood of. But David Lifdorff did something different in that before he condemned Palin’s attitude toward animals, he spent a lot of the essay on how much he at first enjoyed hunting as a little child, When Daniel Ellsberg released the Pentagon Papers, the movement cheered, but recently, when Scott McClellan came out with some similar revelations, the chorus was, “Why didn’t he say so sooner”. Anyway, we need some new organizations such as Hunters Against Sarah Palian Extremism, and ex-hunters which someone like Lifdorff could head, and Pro-Lifers Against Palin’s Extremism. I think I might be able to be an official in Pro-lifers Against Palin’s Extremism, and help start it. In 1983 there is a news article about me being one of the picketers at Planned Parenthood in Philadelphia. Some of the escorts gave me dirty looks when they saw me at peace demos. The only thing recent material was blog comments the Alternet, and Huffington Post, defending Huckabee’s presidential bid. There also once was a back and forth discussion between me and another blogger at CapitolHillBlue on abortion and gay rights that for some reason I can’t retrieve. Unfortunately I can’t link it. Let’s stop talking about all those closed minded people and start criticizing the nut case that dreams of leading the Western World toward her vision of God’s Will, as we note she declared that “US troops are fighting for God in Iraq”, somewhat like an a certain Muslim fanatic dreams of baiting, finagling and inspiring Muslims, to become a united force toward his vision of God’s Will. Some may feel I’m leaving Bush-McCain off the hook. After 9/11, Bush urged us not to deface Muslim property, and humbly visited a mosque. Though switching somewhat, is still trying to be friends with the Saudi’s. When first elected McCain was against animal experimentation, probably a flash-back to when he was, like an animal, being mistreated in a Vietnamese prison. He was also willing to stop the Conservative vendetta against North Vietnam ahead of most Conservatives. Now there is some kind of attempt to use anger against Muslims and baiting Russia to do belligerent things to harvest a domestic agenda away from economic issues rather than actually toward war with Russia and the entire Muslim world. Pre World War I, shows this kind of game can lead to war. But I’m sorry to me Palin and her desire to change the world toward what she thinks God want’s is the issue, even though to say this may insult the memory of people like Dr. King. And McCain’s maverick streak that I hoped was there in a significant way, even while I screamed against him, has been erased by his willingness to pick Palin and nothing else. |
