What like there is no objective test for the god you believe in?

Or objective tests that demonstrate that cannabis is necessarily a poison causing "snicker" mental health problems?

The scenes of her meeting Down’s children on her campaign and treating them as they should be treated – as fully human, valuable people rather than as embarrassments who should have been aborted – are inexpressibly moving.

Well one day the 'government' (read taxpayers) will be paying for Down's children, unless their parents are profoundly rich, you ironic sack of shit....

Is the suggestion here that if you're pro-choice, you will loathe Down's people and treat them like subhumans? That's quite a leap of logic.

One member of Palin's own Republican party recently revealed the real reason why children are born with disabilities:

Quote:

“The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children,” said [Bob] Marshall, a [Virginia] Republican.

“In the Old Testament, the first born of every being, animal and man, was dedicated to the Lord. There’s a special punishment Christians would suggest.”

I think he's developed amnesia as I distinctly remember him standing for the Tory nomination for Kensington & Chelsea, on the grounds he was a manly and tough proper conservative, not like that wishy washy Michael Portillo. The local party voters took a rather different view.

Yeah, right - that'll be the fucking day. Even Hitchens isn't stupid enough to waste his time standing for parliament.

I think he may be mad and deluded enough to give it a try. If Mad Nad's sad little constituency wasn't being given the heave-ho by the Boundaries Comish he would clearly stand a chance there, being as not being sane is clearly OK with them.

Also Palin stands for the party that is quite happy to take away disability/medicaid for children with Downs and other disabilities.

They are adding to the deficit after all.

Well I would disagree with that statement right there.

And the first-born handicapped? That's just God being loving, we assume?
