Does the "average American" agree with Michael Moore?

Nope. Even after reading it 536 times.

So what then do conservatives value? Abortion as birth control?
True Conservatives would not seek to use government power to stop abortion. They would campaign to voluntarily stop it... or decrease it's presence by promoting safe sex.

I will seriously consider the Dem candidates. I wish the repubs would run some one other than Bush, but that ain't going to happen.
Usually because everyone runs away from him and refuses to.
You would to if some guy with cameras and a loud mouth barged into your office accussing you of killing people. Moore does not encourage conversation. At least conservative radio talk show host encourage it. Though it generally ends with the host yelling "Your wrong, your stupid, get off my show!!!"

Bush has done some things that pander to the center-left. Health care and education being two areas.
But don't confuse our right and left with yours. While similar in some ways, our political scale doesn't translate well into the British or European continental political scale.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
Re Michael Moore, polls would indicate that he has a very small constituency.

The one thing about Bush that I really dislike is that when he was running for office he said he was going to "cut the fat". Eliminate useless agencies and cut back on government waste. It seems that lasted for all of 6 months:P... Instead we have more waste, more government spending, more useless agencies, and basically more fat across the board. If some Dem promises to do the same thing while taking a more isolationist stand while continuing the war on terror, I'd vote for him/her/it...
Bush is not anti free trade guys, we wouldn't run a 570 BILLION dollar trade deficit were that the case considering the authority the congress has given him(which they shouldn't have...).
They would campaign to voluntarily stop it... or decrease it's presence by promoting safe sex.
Sava:
So killing babies ought to remain a voluntary exercise? Most conservatives would think the state has a valid reason to intervene.
I agree with your comments on preventation, although I doubt promotion of safe sex will lead to a decrease in abortions.

I doubt promotion of safe sex will lead to a decrease in abortions.
Yet, we'll never know until it is tried.
I think abortion should be a voluntary exercise, but the government should be putting more effort to encouraging safe sex and/or lack of sex instead of pushing the money into social organizations that mimic Planned Parenthood. All they do is allow the child to get an abortion with any real education or hard lesson.
My concern is not in decreasing abortions, however, it is to decrease teen abortions. I blame the parents, and not the government, but if all the government wants to do is make such programs available than a pox on them!
So, I guess your right Ben. I think the state does have a valid reason to intervene since it is the state that educates and takes care of these children either behind the parents back or at the request of the parents.
