The libs stand on the street corners during their anti-war rallies holding signs proclaiming the latest number of those killed in our War on Terrorism in Iraq. It's disrespectful and hurtful to the families ... but they don't seem to care. I agree with them that every life lost is precious ... so perhaps they aren't aware that since the beginning of the Iraq War 5,593,554 American children have died from abortion.
Almost 6 million babies aborted in the United States since 2002 ... and not a peep from the Left.

Abortion is a truth that gets covered over by the left. They conveniently hide these truths. There is never any media coverage on these numbers, I wonder why?
Also, isn't it funny how al-Qaida supports the same beliefs as liberals do - get us out of Iraq. Zawahri and bin Laden are both proud of America's left.
Sad indeed on both accounts.
"... and not a peep from the Left."
Your statement is overbroad and misleading. Many Democrats, including liberals, advocate reducing the number of abortions, but not by using the means of prohibition and invasion of privacy. Rather, education, economic opportunities and family planning efforts are likely to be more effective tools to reduce unwanted pregnancies. Most of the Democratic candidates for President support these steps. Most of the Republicans dismiss the rights of women to have a say in the matter.
Furthermore, the position your comments imply is a conservative Christian one and as much as you might wish it otherwise, the United States is not a theocracy.
As for Mr. Harkonnen's points, I find it interesting actually that radical Islamists and the Christian Right have so much in common in their views toward a tolerant and liberal society, including the rights of women.
Avenger said, "... education, economic opportunities and family planning efforts are likely to be more effective tools to reduce unwanted pregnancies."
Uh ... you mean like the way the government has funded those social programs for at least the past 30 years? Typical ... throw more money at it because that must be what will make it better.
The remainder of your comment is typical liberal spin....
No, we need to do MORE and better, and we could achieve something if the Religious Right did not impede such programs and impose restrictions that render them ineffective -- as they have every step of the way.
The fact is that your comment is wrong. The "Left" is talking about serious solutions to the problem. The Right's answer, as usual, is "make it a crime." If my comments are "liberal spin," then yours are "conservative backspin," as in backwards and regressive.
Avenger, you think there should be MORE money and BETTER funding ... I've heard it all over the years. It's the same-old same-old. Try ponying up the taxes to pay more and more for all your programs. More government, less personal responsibility, more blame to everyone except yourself. Been there, heard that.... Some things never change.
Not interested in dialogue, huh? Just "Left bad, Right good." Well that's not going to get the country anywhere but in a stalemate, so good luck with that strategy.
The fact remains ... every life is precious whether it's a soldier or Marine lost in Iraq ... or whether it's an aborted baby.
And the number of aborted babies in the past five years FAR surpasses the number of soldiers and Marines killed in Iraq ... yet I don't see libs standing on the street corner mourning the loss of those babies and holding a sign that says, "6 million."

The polarity between Islamists and Christians is so blatantly evident. There is absolutely NOTHING in common between the two. the rights of women in Christianity are afforded in kind. In Islam, there's no such existence of rights for women.
I am not a church-attending Christian right winger, but I can attest to this: I'd never attack the Christian movement being a patriotic American, and I'd never attempt to compare Christians with Islamists.
