So Nailer, are you a "right to lifer" as long as the government pulls no money out of your wallet?

Since the Hyde Amendment makes it illegal to use federal funds for abortion, your entire little "means tested" snark makes absolutely no sense at all.

No.

You apparently need to label.

Where did I mention federal funding?

Context is important.

Who's doing the means testing in your little fantasy and to what end?

What's behind your need to belittle?

I'm not into fanticizing. Dreams are another story though.

My reasons are diverse but in your case the need stems from my admitted annoyance at your refusal to elaborate your responses to a point where they can stimulate anything resembling meaningful dialog. You're the king of obscure and snarky one liners.

This is going to be interesting, a too old candidate with a nutcase VP. Sounds like McCain and Palin 2008 doesn't it?

Nailer, I have zero problem fleshing out some of my beliefs. On the other hand, you provide snark, a snide rejoinder, and then disappear. I thought we were supposed to \talk here, rather than do a disagree hit and run.

Spill some beans. Get in the spirit, these one to six word, two sentence "conversations" are rather pointless.
