If liberals really believed that we should kill people who suffer, they should walk around saying "I've suffered, can you abort me?"TheSnarkyBloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779142184454804648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-31036742315835794452008-09-24T16:59:00.000-04:002008-09-24T16:59:00.000-04:00very well indeedvery well indeedJocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405501356337352166noreply@blogger.com
