Misogynist, racist Repugs' war on poor women who depend on PP.
Diseased, dead poor woman? they don't GAF. A fertilized egg is more important.
How’s the expecting coming along? It’s only been what, a year?
It absolutely is. This is the typical older Christian Conservative ‘issue’, where government intervention is suddenly not just good but mandatory (esp since they lost Roe, etc).
There’s nothing in this for independent, outside closing PPs where they go get a Pap test.
At the time of Roe v Wade most republicans were pro-abortion
"Six of the seven justices in the majority were Republican appointees. The only Democrat appointee, Byron White, voted against Roe v. Wade."
the guy wrote the majority opinion Blackmun iirc was a Nixon appointee. Barry Goldwater's wife was a big planned parenthood figure and Goldwater himself was a big pro-choice guy till he died as he thought government should stay out of people's business. It wasnt until Reagan started courting Falwell that GOP became anti-abortion.
"Richard Nixon, Barry Goldwater, Gerald Ford, and George H.W. Bush were all pro-choice, and they were not party outliers. In 1972, a Gallup poll found that 68 percent of Republicans believed abortion to be a private matter between a woman and her doctor. The government, they said, should not be involved."
It wasnt until Planned Parenthood decided to start murdering black babies that the Dems got behind if I remember my D'Souza correctly
Planned Parenthood's first MO was to stem black the growth of the black population. Sanger wrote that in her equivalent to a mission statement.
I knew there was something about it we Dems liked
Your schtick needs work.
Dont know if you can call genociding black babies a schtick..but whatever
Is that relevant now?
AaronY got them dead baby jokes and loves him some euthanasia.
You're aware of your schtick. You're not derp "Nother Level" stupid...but whatever.
In regards to Aaron's comment I responded to, yes.
Well duh, I'm a Democrat so of course. i mean try to keep up here bud
Is it relevant to PP today?
Abortion will be a thing of the past soon just you wait and see
It’s going to be a wedge issue as usual, it’s just more difficult for Trumpists to call any kind of moral high ground.
Extremely unlikely. People always forget the pendulum swings back the other way. A majority of our citizens are pro choice for starters, so even if they can strike it down now, it will only be temporary.
Once the SCOTUS5 or 6 say abortion is unCons utional, citizens don't matter. The Christian Taliban MINORITY will have installed Christian Sharia in the Cons ution.
Very true, but again, it is all temporary. We seem to judge things by our assumed life span, as we are self centered creatures, but a decade or two is not very long tbh. Again, the pendulum always swings the other way. There are certain things that will win out in the end, and abortion rights is one of them. They fought gay marriage as well, for example.
"it is all temporary"
It has taken 45 years to overturn abortion rights, and decades for the oligarchy to get 5 hard right (non-"squishy") so-called "justices" for life on SCOTUS.
Overturning the overturning of right to abortion will take decades.
The oligarchy, who now owns and operates govt, is making sure the pendulum won't swing, certainly not against them.
Gay marriage and LGBT still aren't Federally protected
Based on recent history, and current affairs, I assume, conservatively, the worst for the future. And nobody here has said how the future, at least in USA, will be better.
