hahaha, So because he said that asked you for evidence of your accusation you conclude that:

“Ridgerunner seems to think there is no correlation between abortion and sex outside of wedlock”

Your logic sure has a way of running away with your imagination. Priceless stuff!
I guess I think it’s so obvious that I don’t understand why you would ask for evidence unless you didn’t believe it, but you somehow think he believes it and still asked for evidence.
No I don’t argue with that, This small morsel of truth. in your otherwise emotional explosion in this thread, finally shows a bit of clarity on your part. My issue of course was not about this. This is where your emotions again take over and your logic fails!
Now, we are to an ‘emotional explosion’, when I say, I can’t figure out what, in what I said, would constitute an emotive reaction. Very strange.

Oh dear, now you are just obfuscating, very typical of one who can not show the logic of his argument! The whole thread was one liners of innuendo and accusation. I don’t think that is going to help you with your justification of the democratic party but nice try!

I have great respect for Cardinal Dolan, and I hold life sacred. That being said, I have a different viewpoint regarding politics than he.

First and foremost, no catholic child should be denied a Catholic education for financial reasons nor for their immigration status - period. That is the responsibility of the Church collectively. I just about can’t write about this without getting emotional. As an infant my grandfather was “put on the wheel” in Sicily because due to circumstances of his birth he was left in the care of extended family who could not afford to care for him, and was subsequently raised and educated by the Church. Because he was a good student, he received an education comparable to that of children born in well-to-do families. My grandfather was most grateful throughout his life, and as his granddaughter I am grateful still today for the education provided to him by the Church.

Secondly, in my humble opinion, the Church has made a bad bargain with the GOP - as would be any bargain made with any political party regarding matters of faith. I believe that all of the energy put into political party politics should be put into people - into mothers and fathers and families.
That forces them to align more with republicans as the democrats are the biggest enemy there is to mothers and fathers and families.
 
The media has created a stereotype: the person who wants abortion to be illegal is automatically categorized as:

harsh, judgemental towards women;

*indifferent to a whole series of other issues - poverty, domestic violence, child abuse, immigrant justice, etc, etc, and more etc
heartless towards needs of single pregnant women, and women with newborns.
Somehow anyone who votes for someone for stricter abortion laws magically suspends all other charitable actions like volunteering at a homeless shelter or donating money to a food bank.
But that stereotype works. Many do not know much about what pro-lifers actually do so the media’s misrepresentations are all they have to work with.
My family always voted Democrat going back generations. But when the favored Dem issues became abortion on demand, same sex ‘marriage,’ and now transgender rights, there were a lot of second thoughts. The Dems became the official party of abortion decades ago, and it kept getting worse with every platform. Many of us voted for them out of intertia until we realized we were voting for abortion every single time. Enough.
It would be great if the Democrats would listen. Instead, they superimpose what they think (and what they think is wrong) onto those no longer supporting them. There seems to be a sense of entitlement.
This is not just an American phenomenon.

There is no political action whatsoever that is more effective in insuring the safety of an unborn child than a mother who believes in the sanctity of life. In my opinion, all the political name-calling and blaming is just noise that actually works against accepting the personal responsibility for the sanctity of life that is at the heart of family values.
 
But they were doing this ‘by omission’ before, by refusing to provide basic party support that they apparently were providing to his opponent.
That is not clear from the article or anything that I have read.

The facts: this was a competitive primary race; the incumbent has a lot of baggage; his opponent had a lot of support for interest groups The DNCC chair spoke out directly that the DNCC no litmus test; in this competitive contested primary the DNCC may have delayed but ultimately supported Lipinski. In other primaries the DNCC supported the conservative Democratic candidate (NJ) and opposed the progressive candidate (TX).

The facts are so much simpler and benign the fiction,
 
A case in which abortion on demand is the issue. They did it in “Carhart” regarding partial birth abortion.
They upheld legislation against a particular procedure in Carhart. Net effect: later term abortions are done by other procedures. Then what?

It’s kinda weird that their cornerstone policy issues are unrestricted abortion and broad support for illegal immigration.
It’s kinda weird that a reasonable person would say that their cornerstone policy issues are unrestricted abortion and broad support for illegal immigration…

There is no political action whatsoever that is more effective in insuring the safety of schoolchildren than students or former students who believes in the sanctity of life. In my opinion, all the political name-calling and blaming is just noise that actually works against accepting the personal responsibility for the sanctity of life that is at the heart of school safety.

There is no political action whatsoever that is more effective in insuring the safety of women than rapists who believe in the need for consent. In my opinion, all the political name-calling and blaming is just noise that actually works against accepting the personal responsibility for the need for consent that is at the heart of liberal values.

There is no political action whatsoever that is more effective in insuring the safety of one’s property than a thief who believes in property rights. In my opinion, all the political name-calling and blaming is just noise that actually works against accepting the personal responsibility for the property rights that is one of the hearts of Catholic social justice.

Wow, that was that was fun: I could do that all night! I love twisting things around so that I can get people to vote for the party that voted down the partial-birth abortion ban and worked against the Babies Born Alive Act and any conceivable restriction on the so-called right of a woman to chose to hire someone to kill her unborn child.

I have found both these stereotypes are almost always wrong.
Stereotyping of people on ether side of the issue contributes to the division that impedes progress to a solution to this problem. And this thread is full of stereotypes.
 
#notrueDemocrat
Hardly.
Extrapolation from an individual to a small number to a characteristic of a group is unsound. And it is unnecessary

If you want to know what Democrats stand for you might look to how the rank and file vote. Or the legislation that office holders propose. Or the issues its candidates consistently campaign on. Selecting one thing that happened one day to one Democrat and holding this up as the true Democrat is rank nonsense, as hard as it is to let go of cherished, validating stereotypes.
 
I expect positions were reversed when it was Clinton with a sordid past.
As you well know, there was no solid evidence that Bill Clinton has an adulterous affairs when people voted for him for President.
 
John 8:32; you will come to know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
