Thanks for showing that, Lizzy. My wife and I have been talking about this very subject a lot these past couple weeks.

Lizzy said...

You're welcome, guys. I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees something wrong here.

Jim Marquis said...

FYI, I did a little piece on the "culture of life" and I referred to your list of executed inmates...

sleepybomb said...

culture of life depends on the side of the tracks.

Damien said...

Man it's just the share hypocracy that gets me. Good to see the zealots making fools of themselves. Again thanks for the list Lizzy, it makes a difference actually seeing the names.

You are very welcome, Damien.
