Your Democrat-Bolshevik party is melting down, Democrat weaponization of FBI, DOJ and IRS against Republican political opponents, Democrat push for an authoritarian one-party Democrat-Bolshevik lockdown government , and intimidation of jail for all dissenters, and... THIS is what you care about?!?
Propagandizing abortion as a political weapon?
You truly have warped priorities, M E M.
For the record, all that conservatives for 50 years have wanted (since the 1973 "Roe vs. Wade court ruling) ) is to let individiual states determine the specifics of abortion law, according to the will of the people who live there, in each of the 50 states.
As opposed to a fiat mandate with no legal precedent (as occurred in 1973) imposed unilaterally across all 50 states. I think only Kansas and Ohio have debated the possibility of (but not actually imposed) a complete ban on abortions in their state.
Against the lying propaganda of Democrats, to politically distort abortion law as a way to stoke and enrage Democrat voters, what the U.S. Supreme Court ACTUALLY ruled on a year ago is that the 1973 ruling was ALWAYS un-constitutional. And the U S S C ruling in 2022 simply gave individual choice back to each of the 50 states, letting the people choose locally how abortion law would be structured in their 50 individual states. That's it. That's all. Not a ban on abortion, as Democrats misrepresent. And the polls I've seen, between 65% and 70% of the people support the overturn of Roe vs. Wade, and limits on availability of abortion.
And that's also a key point : That as it was initially structured by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in 1973, abortion was divided into 3 separate trimesters of the 9-month pregnancy.
In the 1st 3 months, a woman could get an abortion for pretty much any reason.
In the 2nd trimester the fetus was more developed, so there were greater restrictions and limits to getting an abortion.
And in the 3rd trimester, abortion was much less available because of how developed the baby was, and abortion was only allowed in that period in cases of rape, incest, or if giving birth threatened the life or health of the mother.
But in recent decades, the Bolshevik-Left has over time wiped out those restrictions, so that a woman could have an abortion for any reason right up to the time of birth, or even a number of cases where the baby was born alive and killed after surviving abortion. Or "partial birth abortion", where the (fully developed) baby is hacked apart in the womb, and brought out of the womb piece by piece by the abortion doctor. And the baby's brains are sucked out of the skull with a vaccuum before pulling its body out of the womb, so it cannot be birthed alive.
Brutal.
Barbaric.
And some abortion doctors have been exposed as sadists who had a morbid Norman Bates-like obsession with corpses and death, and save the secret collections of fetus-filled jars, for their morbid and inhuman amusement.
I've seen many interviews with doctors and nurses for Planned Parenthood who initially did these abortion procedures, regular or late-term abortions, and reached a point where they were disgusted, ashamed, saddened and outraged by it, ceased doing those abortions, and became vocally active in opposing abortions.
And who would know better the exact nature of those procedures, thaan the doctors who performed them?
What you cheer on as "women's reproductive rights" (oh how I LOVE that sanitized euphemistic term, that glosses over the grisly details of the ACTION that a brutal PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION procedure, or other still grisly ABORTION procedure, actually entails. "Reproductive rights", sure.)
What you cheer on will in the future be seen as a shameful chapter of several decades in medical science. There are already great leaps forward in understanding the early development of the fetus, the baby. That early on it has a heartbeat, has its own heart and bloodstream, so that if the mother is a crack-addicted drug addict prostituting herself for drugs and has HIV or AIDS, the baby incredibly has its own separate bloodstream and remains HIV-free for that 9 months, and is only at risk of getting HIV as it passes through the womb when being born. Inexpensive ultrasonic images, that show the baby as it looks in the womb, developed and visibly human in even the first 5 or 6 weeks.
In Europe, abortion is only available in the first 12 weeks.
Only in a few places is there a zealous push to allow abortion right up till the moment of birth. In North Korea, in China.... and in the Democrat-Bolshevik regions of the U.S.
Mother Teresa years ago impacted my opinion on the subject (at that point I was still a supporter of abortion, due to liberal propaganda and to lack of understanding).
In a TIME magazine interview, she said when asked, "What greater measure is there of a nation's evil, than when it chooses to murder its own children."
That really impacted me, and combined with other factors I'd learned over several years, such as abortions from 1973-2000, in an article I read titled "ABORTION, WORLD WAR III" detailed how abortion, in the United States alone in that time period, let alone the further tens of millions of abortions worldwide in that time, IN THE U.S. ALONE had taken more lives than were lost in World War II.
And against my earlier belief that abortion got rid of unwanted children and reduced crime, there are about 200,000 couples in the U.S. annually that cannot have children, and would gladly adopt these children, adopt children at great expense from southeast Asia, from Africa.
And further that some of the most accomplished people came from impoverished backgrounds, and arguably achieved far more than most in their lives because of the deprivation. Andrew Carnegie. And a highly educated and accomplished principal I met years ago, someone I knew for years personally.
These are some of the factors that completely reversed my opinion on abortion, circa 2000-2002, largely due to information first made available to me on the internet.
A propagandized "women's reproductive health" procedure that kills millions every year.
And you just gloat about it as a political football, because you think it helps your Democrat-Bolshevik cause. If it does give Democrats an advantage, it is only because they misrepresent and falsely propagandized with incendiary rhetoric the actual facts regarding abortion.
