I just asked a question about that dude who got caught with a male prostitue and drugs. Some guy said at least he didnt burn flags and kill babies. Who the hell burned flags and killed babies??? I think i would have heard about that!!!!

Killing babies refers to abortion, which is still legal under the 1973 Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade. Both Democrat and Republican women have unwanted pregnancies and abortions.
Most flag burnings have been staged; there is not a lot of it going on, so it's a false issue. Democrat Hillary Clinton is a strong supporter of anti flag burning legislation. I don't think Democrats really care one way or another about this non issue.

Sad really, the problem with the Republican party right now is that there is no accountablity.
When there is a scandel or problem, their immediate response is to bring up some sort of dredge from the other side to shift attention away.
i.e. When you ask a question about success or failures in Iraq, the majority of the responses from the Right will be either that it's Clinton's fault for not catching Osama when he was in office, or they will say that we are failing because Democrats support terrorists. Ridiculous.
The justification to their behavior always leads back to something the Democrats have done wrong. We support Pro Choice, and so we are all baby killers, We support free speech, and so we want everyone to burn a flag.
So ridiculous.

Because of the democratic stand for abortion ("killing babies") and against a constitution ban on flag desecration ("flag burning"), this is the stand many in the GOP take to show how morally bankrupt democrats can get. (Which is funny, as Foley hangs over them)

People who accuse democrats of those things are immature and desperate to use mud-slinging because they have very few positives from the republicans to talk about.

It's just propoganda as a scare tactic. Kudos for being smarter than that.

"that dude" denies the allegations (well, he admits buying drugs, but never using them). the prostitute failed a lie detector test today. so hold off on saying he "got caught". he may have, but let's let the prosses work its way out.

Nobody, it was a deflection to avoid facing the issue
