An article in the Wall Street Journal today documents a large and growing difference in fertility rates between Conservatives and Liberals. Are Liberals aborting themselves into permanent minority status?

carl: OpinionJournal.com is the web version of the Wall Street Journal editorial page. It says so, right at the top of the page I linked to.

No, liberalism is doomed to fail because liberals are NOT (liberals) and because they continue to cling to worn out, tried, and failed programs and ideas.
Chow!!

Hi Jay,
I don't think so, intersting article though. I think the author unraveled his own line of reasoning at the end when he brought up the fact that people vote for the candidate, not the party, so it could be irrelevant. My father has very conservative Republican values but he voted for Clinton like many others in that party. Also we need to consider what this administration is doing for the reputation of the Republican party. This administration is going to be a black mark on them for generations to come. But who knows, with all the ''lost'' votes the last couple times around, it might not matter anyway.
By the way, I know quite well what Depleted Uranium is, the quesetion was wether or not you'd heard that the government knew what its suppodely doing to people. There are plenty of arguments for and against its use, I'd say more against than for. Its just a matter of which source you trust. Have a good one.

Interesting.
However the article you posted the link to is clearly NOT from the Wall Street Journal.
Why the deception?
Edit: OK - you got me! I did not see the WSJ up in the blue circle.
Mea culpa, mea culpa

No it would be more of a problem for Republicans because less people will be joining them because the Liberal kids see how crazy there parents are and choose to be Republican.

No, there is a good chance that despite being born disadvantaged many children will still grow up to be intelligent and liberal.

Yes, they are on track, because these extreme left wing nutjobs are mostly gay/lesbian. They hate the thought of life being created between a man and a woman. They love the thought of babies being created from test tubes and then viciously aborting them.
