42. Oh but see! It's *just* abortion
that doesn't matter. we should be willing to 'roll over' on the abortion issue if it gains us a few million votes.

and, if in the next election, an issue involving the poor is the 'dividing' issue, then we can just 'roll over' on public assistance programs to gain a few million votes.

And keep 'rolling over' on every issue that they want to divide us with. And we keep rolling over and rolling over until one day we wake up and realize that while we still have a two party system, we only have one choice---do we vote for the Republicans, or the Republicans? Since we will have 'rolled over' on every issue that SEPARATES US from THEM and become THEM.

I guess in that event, we'll never really lose another election. And that's all that matters.

Civil rights don't matter. Gay rights don't matter. Reproductive rights don't matter. None of that matters. The only thing that matters is Republicans and doing what they want and saying what they say and lock-step lock-step lock-step.

Seig Heil
