SGG's What's Your Issue Poll

[FRPLG]

I think it has been a lively debate. Civil(which is rare when talking about abortion) and relatively intellectual. What's funny is that I do not view abortion as a voting issue if only because it is so contentious. I know that a vote based on someone's abortion views is a wasted vote since I do not believe that there will ever be a satisfactory conclusion to the debate. I am big into constituents having a say and law-makers following the will of the people when it is appropriate. It is appropriate on social issues like abortion because we have all the info we need to make an informed decision. I am less inclined to have law-makers follow the people's will on more complex issues where we don't have a clear understanding of the issues. Like most foreign policy.

I have never voted based even slightly on abortion.

It is simply a subject to debate without regard to politics.
