If fetuses could raise enough money to defend themselves, he'd be all over defending the bill. STFU GOP. Pathetic.

to save face in front of his constituents. Probably wishful thinking on my part.

They don't care about saving face. They don't care that they are awful all day long every single day. If you believe in something you fight for it even if you're destined to lose. This guy is a tool.

Fight them in court. Apparently they eventually get tired.

Or maybe they're afraid that if Gorsuch gets on SCOTUS they may actually win, and they'll no longer have it as an issue to get votes.

they just know that this issue gets the kooks out to vote.



If Roe does get repealed they'll lose their biggest drawing card with the religious nutters.

Their insensitivity to the need to have control of your own body is horrific. Truly dickish.

They have no clue.

In other words, they know that their anti-abortion bills are indefensible, but they just want to please the idiots who think women shouldn't be allowed body autonomy.

Still, it's a step in the right direction. Let's keep making those bills as expensive to defend as possible.

For a party that wants government out of people's lives, they pick the most obtrusive issue there is and take the most extreme positions.

I know that this issue is less about sex and more about control. Specifically men controlling women. I just don't get the net gain. What is the true bottom line of this issue? If all abortions were illegal tomorrow and the penalties were severe, where would that leave us? Would the lives of the anti- choice crowd suddenly be elevated, no more suffering, no more hunger, no more war, the feeling of being all alone is the universe would be lifted?

Like I said. I'm baffled by the energy the anti- choice crowd spends to have control over someone else's life.
