Back in 2003 I started questioning why do conservatives make pro-life a #1 priority in choosing a candidate when no matter who is in office there doesn't seem to be ANY kind of change in the abortion laws. Should this be are main focus when everything else seems to be going to hell in a hand basket? Sure if we went to stricter abortion laws and it made a difference maybe that should be are concern for measuring a candidate but other than that all too many people are complacent and don't concern themselves with real issues. They believe whatever the media and the so called 'experts' spoon feed them. Then when you try to show them that they are believing a lie no matter how much you prove with facts they refuse to believe you or even research what they do not believe. They say, "that is mumbo jumbo with no supporting facts" then they go on to tell you what they believe and do not even back it up with anything and expect to convince you just because it feels right to them. You ask where is your supporting evidence and all they can say is they heard it on the news. The ones opposing and have facts means nothing. So is it a wonder that we have global warming that includes snow in places that never had snow? I have asked people if global warming IS so real why hasn't it scared Gore into not using others carbon credits. If it is such a threat shouldn't the carbon credits be set aside for future generations? All they can do is hit the disagree button on the question sites. I haven't found a single person that can give me any more of a valid answer than "he has to use the carbon footprints to be able to go tell the people to conserve because of the dangers they cause the earth". So we are suppose to ride a bike so others can waste what we conserve??? Then there is the cfl bulbs we all have to switch to. Just imagine, a days paycheck to buy enough bulbs for your house. Then you have to drive the burned out ones to the recycling center to dispose of them! Wonder how much they are going to charge to take burned out bulbs off your hands???

Then there are the people that are so complacent they don't care as long as it doesn't affect them. They don't care how many laws are made banning anything and everything under the sun as long as they can live their life comfortably. It never occurs to them that the power to make laws against things is eventually going to snowball into their rights and by then it will be too late. Wonder what it is going to be like once you are not allowed to take your *obese* friend out to eat? How are the restaurants suppose to figure out if the person is fat? Who will determine the cut off from thin to fat? If a restaurant did that years ago it would be called discrimination. Now that it is the governments idea it's not.

Why are so many people saying it is okay, even good, that the government is making all these laws? They keep saying no they haven't taken away any of our freedoms yet. They say we are free and the government will not take our freedoms away. Those laws are not taking away freedoms because the people are still free to eat and smoke--just not there.

Also why are people so gullible to believe that somebody can come along and fix all the financial problems with give aways? As poor as I am I wouldn't trust it for a nano second. If you have free health care what has to occur to make it happen? The more we want handed to us the more it is going to have an adverse domino effect on other things....and eventually come back on YOU. People say why wouldn't you want free health care when it is doing so well in other countries and we have the worst health care. Once again when you tell them to look at the facts of how many people have to wait three months to be seen by the dr another six months to get the results and another six months for surgery....in the meantime they die, they insist you are believing a lie. Why can't people research the opposing side and come to their own conclusions? What are they afraid of????

Update: People wonder why were we okay with Bush's stimulus but not Obama's? 

For one thing look at what the stimulus isbeing used for....it is more like comparing Obams's stimulus with Bush's bailouts 

I don't know anybody that was happy with Bush's bailouts---other than the corporations that profited from it.
