\u2026 whose sexy swagger and untroubled simplicity about killing people will, I presume, help make him the nominee of the GOP, judging from the roar of approval that went up for his cloudless vision of vengeance killing, with nary a trace of difficulty over the fact that some of his victims might have been, you know, innocent.<\/a><\/p>\n As I say, I think you aren\u2019t prolife if you choose to kill even one innocent person. But I recognize I\u2019m in the minority on the Right in this matter. As a general rule, as long as a political candidate says he is prolife, he can get a pass on killing any number of innocent or penitent or foreign people who don\u2019t happen to be babies. Indeed, when the babies happen to be citizens of Hiroshima, Nagasaki, or Dresden, you can even get a roar of approval for that.<\/p>\n Looks like it\u2019ll be another Doomed Quixotic Third Party guy for me again. All I ask is for somebody who doesn\u2019t want me to support something gravely and intrinsically immoral. Not perfection; just something that will not make me worthy of the fires of hell like \u201cnot deliberately taking innocent human life\u201d. That\u2019s too much to ask of either party. So I will use my puny strength to pull a lever for somebody who is not part of the Death Machine. It won\u2019t change the country, but I will sleep better at night.<\/p>\n
