My point is that the will of the people is what the representatives are
supposed to be doing. If they are not then they should be voted out.

If they are not voted out, then they must be supported by the majority of 
voters. If the people who are against them refuse to vote, though, then
they aren't making their wishes known.

See my comment above. There are vocal people that claim they aren't being
representated. It's not on those that disagree to to change the way they
vote. I'm going to continue to vote for what I support, as I expect them
to do.

What rights are you referring to? Sorry - been a bit before I could
login and do a mail run.



 AI> Why does your beliefs on the matter mean more than the womans?

 ji> It doesn't, but it should matter equally. The unborn hasn't reached

 AI> If you are simply expressing your desire I have no issue.

 AI> It is when demanding a woman do this or that against her own wishes

Where do you draw the line though? Does that apply to doing what they
want in their own home too, even if it is affecting children in
that house?
