the only "bullshit" i see is when people dismiss it without first fully understanding it, which is clear from your comment.

Perhaps I have dismissed it because I have actually studied political science.

Perhaps. But the animas in the word "bullshit" suggest more that is is opposition to your personal beliefs, rather than your course of study that sparked your comment.

In the 60s women were dying in back alley abortion mills.

In the last year of illegal abortions, 39 women died. In 2014, 24 women died of legal abortions.

Lets put the hyperbole in perspective, shall we?

15,700 died from the flu
32,000 died from auto accidents.

54 people died from bee stings
26 people died from lightning.


One million babies died to abortion, this year, roughly equal to all american casualties in all wars, combined.

86 percent of abortions are done for convenience, according to a 2004 Guttmacher study.
Rape and incest were less than 1/2 of 1%.

So, you can cerainly make the argument that women should be able to abort babies for their convenience. But lets quit with the false "thousands of women dying to illegal back alley abortion mills" .

The number was 5000 that year. But since you were still a little felcher in those days, you wouldn't know that. Now you are a big felcher.

In 1930, abortion was listed as the official cause of death for almost 2,700 women. The death toll had declined to just under 1,700 by 1940, and to just over 300 by 1950s. By 1965, the number of deaths due to illegal abortion had fallen to just under 200

Of course it wasn't. Liberal talking points bandy the 5,000, 15,000, thousands and thousands -but of course they are incorrect.

The guttmacher institute - a pro abortion group states:

So, once again: your posts are crap and without foundation.

I’m not putting anyone down for the candidate of their choice but I wonder if the results of this poll clearly show the mindset of posters in these forums. On both sides of the political spectrum posters here on the boards seem to choose the more extreme candidates of their parties.

Do you believe that we here are a good example of the average voters in the US or do you think we tend to gravitate to the extremes?

Now I am not gonna thro rocks like the third graders have, just consider what our country is up against no matter which side wins.

I have a dilemma here. And apparently lots of others do also. Who is there to vote for? Almost everybody running for POTUS out there acts like a third grader throwing rocks back and forth at each other on the school playground at recess.

Ok folks, recess is over.

I want somebody that is level headed calm and reasoning.

How about someone that is honest, owes no one any political favors or debts, can be diplomatic, thoughtful, reasonable, firm, and has my best interest at heart; I want an obvious national and world leader.

Anybody got any suggestions? Wasn't what the op meant in the beginning?
