Sterling example of civil discussion and thoughtful analysis:


Steve,
Which is it that you dislike?
1) Family planning?
3) Poor people.
3) Both.
Unless you love poor people and want to see many more of them to increase the welfare rolls and discredit the Dems. Nah. You're not smart enough for that kind of reasoning.

Democrats should not forget the lesson of 1994

Paul;
Nah. You're not smart enough for that kind of reasoning.

Rather insulting.

Which is it that you dislike?

I dislike politics where extreme liberals or extreme conservatives demand to push their ideology onto Americans at the expense of our economy. Obama promised something different - I expect him to keep this promise. If he doesn't my vote is negotiable.
I have said several times this morning that I favor family planning - but that come back with such an insulting post shows exactly how polarizing this issue can be. You want more of that? I don't.

Then, you're against poor people; a very Republican position.

Reminds me of centrist Howard Dean, who said the difference between Republicans and Democrats is that Democrats don't think children should go to bed hungry at night. He was wrong about that, of course, we Republicans actually want children to go to bed hungry in the morning after working the night shift sorting coal by hand for below minimum wage in a non-union coal mine.
