Abortion:

I support the law as established through Roe v. Wade

Iraq:

Based on lies, and a complete waste of lives, money and resources.

Tax Cuts:

Bush's are wrong. Too skewed to the rich. The highest classes should have the rate raised to far beyond pre-Bush levels. In addition the estate tax should be reinstated.

Gun Control:

I think current federal laws are sufficient, and for the most part share Howard Dean's position.

Educations:

Increase funding into public schools, no vouchers.

Religion:

I favor complete seperation of church and state. I don't really care either way about the "Under God" in the pledge because I think reciting the pledge every day itself is a sign of a much bigger problem than any words in it, but if you had to make me choose, I'd say take the, out.

Homeland Security:

In need of serious reforms

Other Civil Liberties:

Repeal the Patriot Act. Base AA on class, not race. End Don't Ask, Don't Tell and allow open gays to serve.

Gay Marriage:

I'm in favor of equality for homosexual and heterosexual couples, but I think it would be best to leave "marriage" soely to the religious institutions and give civil unions to everyone.

Death Penalty:

Oppose, I would support abolishment.

My problem with joining the ACLU (aside from the membership fees) is their defense of NAMBLA.

All terrorist sponsoring states must be toppled.  Iraq was #2.  Who wants to be #3?

where's the money, resources and troops to do so?

Why don't you quit being a hypocrite and head down to your enlistement office?

well why don't you enlist?

I'm glad to see so many others here who hate private schools. Yes, they should either be outlawed, or crippled.

For the life of me I can't figure out why some people would want to end private schools.

Because so many private schools suck.

and most have uniforms.

And I totally share your view on school uniforms.

Private schools suck and the kid hate 'em

I don't and many others don't. Plenty of private school kids would stay where they are instead of going to a public school. AND many public school students would love to switch schools.

ha! I didn't know of anyone at my place. School uniforms would scare the sh!t out of them.

In a brief sentence or so state your positions on the big issues of the day as below.

Abortion:

I feel that it should be legal in the first trimester only.  Personally, I believe it is wrong and we should work to reduce the number the number of abortions.  I support banning second and third trimester abortions.

Iraq:

I dont like the Iraq war but feel we have to do a gradual pullout and not an immediate one.

Tax Cuts:

No mored tax cuts till the deficit is gone.

Gun Control:

There are certain types of guns that should not be legal.  I favor less gun control than more.

Education:

I support public education and believe we should fund it appropriately to make sure we have the best and brightest students possible.

Religion:

I have a mixed opinion.  Its not the most important issue to me.

Homeland Security:

Support the patriot act.

Other Civil Liberties:

N/A

Gay Marriage:

I support Civil Unions and I wouldnt have a problem with Gay marriage being legalized

Death Penalty:

Support the death penalty for the most serious crimes.

Why are you a Republican?
