A slight political rant

by admin on February 19, 2012

Interesting piece on Fox News that got Judge Napolitano fired. Dare you question the powers that be?

I think that there is a great deal of truth in this video. Politicians are all cut from a similar cloth and generally we are choosing the lesser of two evils and policies end up being very similar. Anyone who thinks that the government is run for the good of the people is fooling themselves. Government and the decisions made are all about money and who is paying who off.

I am not a Ron Paul fan by any means. I do believe in many things he speaks about, but also think his views on religion and government are disturbing. He has said he would cut funding to planned parenthood even though 97% of what they do is providing health care and information to the poor. It is also beyond doubt that he reviewed the racist remarks in his newsletters prior to publication.

I also believe that, positive aspects notwithstanding, he probably wouldn’t get much accomplished if he was elected since he doesn’t have support of either party. Could he be a neutral unifying force in the white house? Doubtful.

And a final thought. If you are going to be “pro life” you should be pro life, for life. If you care so much for life prior to birth, support that same life once breath is taken.

If you don’t want abortions happening be strongly in favor of contraception and education. Sex is going to happen. You can try to fool yourself that abstinence is the answer, but it’s not. The best way to prevent abortions is to support contraception. And for the record, no one is pro death, except the folks supporting the death penalty. No one is pro abortion. It is a terrible thing, but if it is made illegal it means rich folks wanting that option would fly out of the country to make it happen and poor folks would be in the hands of butchers.

To show your support for life, adopt an unwanted or orphaned child.
