I'm sure he was trying to refer to the liberal position on abortion, ignoring that conservatives avail themselves of abortion, adultery, drugs, alcohol, gambling, etc., and so on. Sarah Palin's little girl Bristol has made a great living out of her drinking and screwing around before she was 18, even.

I was ignoring his oblique reference to liberals, was pointing out that as far as I'm concerned conservatives would do well to abort the immorality out of their bloodlines.

He, of course, was referring to liberals. The problem is that liberals accept man's humanity and don't need to breed it out.

I wasn't clear, I'll admit. But TBs snarkiness, as you'd call it, did not escape me. I can track him most of the time. I have problems when he has to ignore the meanings of words, such as "lie", or "greed", and simply denies truths which are uncomfortable. But that's not a lack of understanding, it's a frustration with a personality which cannot admit anything which might be interpreted as unflattering.
