Thang,

Remember, I never claimed that I have answers to all these difficult questions and I am still searching;  therefore, I cannot use these issues to draw the line in the sand as to which party affliation I belong to for each has its own self-contradiction which was what I was trying to point out.  It's not that simple.  Anyhow, I was not the one who came down so strong on this: "There's no "pro-choice" here.

To answer your question, I am on the pro-life side and I am trying to keep it consistent  to the best of my knowledge.  I did not try to twist anybody's ideals.  Any twisting one sees is already there.

Folks, It's now down to the wire.  I am glad this election stimulated and inspired lively discussion.  I've learned quite a bit about Vietnam War and "history" in the process thanks to all your indepth knowledge.  Some might have found the discussion a little over-heated and I apologize for my part in the SPAM.  I thought it was healthy that we all could talk freely and share our thoughts and ideas, despite their differences and not having to worry about Big Brother's censorship.  I hope we continue conversations like this even long after this election.  I am particularly interested in the topic of Vietnamese ex-patriots living abroad.   I agree that we should use the forum format to spare those who are not interested.

See you at the polls.

Binh

  Binh,

  Let me tell you this: I'm not a Pro-Life, I am supporting the LIFE OF A 
  FETUS OR A BABY. If I always fighting for the life of a baby no matter what 
  scenarios happened as your examples then I'm a priest or a monk already. But 
  those are minority cases. You can't twist my ideal on that.

  "I cannot be PRO-LIFE AND PRO-DEATH at the same time."
  Please let me ask you a question: which "PRO" are you since you can't stand 
  between them in this world?
