Backseat
See... this is exactly what poloticians do to grab your attention. They say something that sounds great and interesting to get you to listen to them.
Let's use Romney as an example:
Flip-Flop
Unfair Bashing of Romney... oh well
There is NOTHING wrong with changing your mind on an issue. I almost feel that he speaks not knowing that people are recording and posting what he says all over the internet. Perhaps, he is playing the local crowd. If you go to Rome, you believe as the Romans do. The people of Los Angelos, CA are no doubt much different from the people in "Hick-Ville ... my sister's my mother ... USA."
Just now, one of the kids asked me, "What are you writing about?"
I told him that I am writing some polotical banter about a polotician that continues to flip-flop on the abortion issue. The first thing the boy told me, "Abortion? That's where they kill babies, right?"
Me: "Some people don't think they are killing babies."
Boy: "That's exactly what they are doing, though. They are killing human beings."
This kid is only 8 years old. I'm sure his parents could've influenced their child. Perhaps, in Pensacola, FL people are more pro-life than in other areas. I asked all the kids what they thought. Every single child said it was murder. I found it interesting. They don't deal with grey area like adults. It either is good or it is bad. Innocent children (even the kids you want to strangle) think it is wrong.
My personal belief is that there are few situations in which abortion is absolutely neccessary. I think a lot of people misuse pro-choice. They get an abortion because they'd rather not deal with the struggles that it brings. There is a morning after pill. There is birth control. There are condoms. There are many other options. Abortion is expensive. Why is it that a person who doesn't want to deal with the financial burdens not take the cheaper road to begin with. YOU CAN GET FREE CONDOMS! Abortion can't be a fun thing for any woman to go through. It is often embarrasing and indescrete. I understand that some women have no choice and perhaps there are rare cases where a woman was on birth control and took the after-morning pill and they even used a rubber (I'd love to see one, though).
America is filled with lazy and extremely ignorant(or dumb) people. I count myself as a very naive person. There are a lot of sides I don't know about or I haven't run in to. If you are reading this, then there is a good chance you are deeply concerned with how much of a fucking idiot I am. I appreciate your concern.
So...
BACKSEAT...
I am taking a backseat this week and I'm going to open my mind and actually do a little more digging concerning the other presidential candidates.
Final Note: If Ron Paul becomes president and gets his way, this country will very likely go through a type of depression. It is one of the reasons I think people are afraid of him entering office. Everyone in this country has gotten far too comfortable with the way they live.
