You would think the Christian conservative "pro-life" crowd would love child refugees, but NO!

I mean, here are a bunch of most likely christian children, whose parents didn't use birth control, and whose parents didn't choose abortion, deciding to possibly give their kids up for adoption, just like the "sidewalk counselors" try to coerce women into doing. Yet, with all the animosity and hate inside their christian conservative hearts, they are demanding America return them to violence and possible death.

The entire christian conservative "prolife" movement is actually the antithesis of anything even remotely resembling being prolife. They're for death penalty, for endless war, for cutting food-aid, for blocking healthcare, for lower wages, for guns everywhere. Their utter hypocrisy is only outdone by their sheer stupidity.

Prolife my arse, it's ONLY and ALWAYS been about CONTROL.

And all the rest of the Republican-voting Cuban-American bloc. Although considering how Obama came close to winning 50% of the Cuban-American vote in the last election, I don't think it's much of a love affair anymore, except for the older expatriados.

I'm going to put out the word every chance I get. They are proving what liberals have been saying all along: that they are "pro-life" until the child is born and needs care. They don't give a shit after that.

17. They only claim to be Christians.

Since they don't follow any of Jesus' supposed teachings, their claim is false. Fundamentalist churches don't teach from Matthew, apparently, nor do conservatives read that book of the Bible, it seems.
