    Default We're a pro-choice nation

    And getting more so. Close to 60% consistently in polls support a woman's right to choose.

    Everyone has the same goal: make abortions rare.

    But keep them legal. It's middle ages stuff to ban them.

    Wrong we are not a pro-choice nation. Sonn you will have to buy an EV there is no choice. A mother killing her child is not a choice it is barbaric and a terrible action taken by the doctor and the Mother

    Democrats want abortion right up to birth. The do not want them rare since that would hurt their wonderful Planned Parent hood

    sixty million dead children is not "rare"......I can agree with that middle ages remark, though........by then the world had become civilized enough that killing children was considered barbarian......

    It still is considered barbaric.

    As for life still to be born or not born, it's true abortion became illegal under religious dominated law in the Middle Ages, but it became legal and widely practiced in some states in the early years of the country and it was widely practiced in Native American tribes. Where it was not practiced even children had the sense to know what "children" are.

    Why are you posting the same post twice, Marty?

    Posting your dumb posts once is more than enough, Marty.

    The claim by Republicans that life is sacred and begins at conception is completely situational.

    If they start losing elections and start to permanently alienate Gen X and women, they will begin to quietly tip-toe away from radical abortion bans in the same way they quietly tip-toed away from all their efforts to make constitutional amendments banning gay marriage.

    The abortion pill is a great example of how irrational some of the arguments can be.

    How could anyone oppose that? The cells that have developed at that point are microscopic. As far from sentience and cognitive development as a skin cell.

    I remember reading an article about a pharmacist in the south who tried to stop selling birth control pills because he was pro life. It gets to a level of absurdity.

    The further Republicans push this, the more Democrats are going to win...

    Hey, I get it. Sometimes something is so morally wrong, it is better to lose while fighting it, than to win while giving in to it. But make no mistake about it, this is a loser for Republicans.

    Side point, if abortion is murder, then shouldn't it be illegal even when it is a 12 year old rape victim? So why aren't Republicans loudly saying they are against 12 year old rape victims getting abortions?

    It's not "pro-choice". That's a leftist narrative. It's pro-death and murder. Of course, when your ideology is all about societal decline, murdering unborn children makes perfect sense. Much like pretending men can be women.

    Anyone who believes that CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS. NBC and NPR are not about disinformation is a mentally challenged halfwit. Russia collusion. The Covid HOAX. Fox is one of the few networks that even attempts to be sane or factual.

    The reason you are a leftist mental case with a severely retarded IQ is that you think MSNBC is news. Moron.
