You forgot to mention abortion. Thanks to the Left, over a million babies are murdered each year in the United States.

Yes, and thanks to the Right millions more die due to poverty, hunger, lack of sufficient health care, homelessness and neglect.

Unfortunately, the Right's "Right to Life" ends at birth.

Right to Life isn't right or left.
It's a conviction one feels inside their soul when they know the human difference between right and wrong.
Babies are legally murdered, decapitated, pulled apart, even at birth, and it is beyond disgusting.

Mike you are an ass. If Democrats were so concerned about homeless and poverty in the US, you'd take care of your own first and stop giving overseas, just look at the entertainers who fund Obama, they give more overseas than in the USA. I'm against welfare recipients using the food card paid for by taxpayers for cigarettes, liquor and non- essential items. Tell you Hollywood Democrats to help in the USA first, there would be no poverty nor the big welfare bill that the taxpayers have to fund. OH but wait, it votes for Democrats and Obama , keep them poor and needy, give them a few freebies, and they will vote for Obama.

Incest? - Have the baby
Rape?- Have the baby
13 & pregnant - have the baby
father ran off - have the baby
Mother's life in danger-have the baby
THEN: don't provide any handouts to help that MOM.

Way to go Republican's

Wait....there's more

Severe birth defects-have the baby
abnormal chromosomes - have the baby
no place to live-have the baby
no health insurance - have the baby
no food-no jobs-have the baby

then, when the child dosent have food, healthcare etc let him Suffer. Because the Right knows what's best (afterall they spoke to God and he personally told them life begins at conception and if mom dosent have the baby it's murder) Dorks

It's better to keep your views to yourself, your ignorance is showing.

in most states abortions are only allowed early term. 22ish weeks. Now, lets put something into perspective. That 22 weeks is the youngest a fetus can survive, with lots of medical support, intensive care, etc. Nothing 'natural', no baby would ever survive with regular care at this point, or even weeks after this point. Now, most abortions won't happen at the absolute maximum time (people generally wouldn't procrastinate on this). According to this (http://www.abortionno.org/Resources/fastfacts.html), majority of the abortions happen before the 9th week of pregnancy. At nine weeks your fetus is about somewhere between the size of a kidney bean and a grape. I've smashed bugs bigger than that. Not only that, at that early stage of development, you wouldn't even recognize the fetus. The fetus doesn't have any sense of feeling, any mental capacity, arms, legs, anything that make it 'human'. It is no more a person than a large growth on my foot. That thing is not a person.

Further, if you want to consider a precursor to a person an actual person, why stop at the fetus? What about the all essential gametes?

If Mitt's family was deserving of a helping hand after they came running back to the country they abandoned, how much more deserving are those Americans today who have lost their jobs due the downsizing of companies that Willard Mitt Romney does so well?

Perhaps Mitt would not have had the privileged life of the son of an auto company honcho if his father's family didn't get a helping hand when they needed it. For all of Romney's talk, it is truly Barack Obama who is the "self-made" man in this race. And unlike Romney, he believes in "paying it forward" not "take the money and run,"

"Unfortunately, the Right's 'Right to Life' ends at birth." An excellent point well put, Mike.
