Since the New Deal, republicans have been on the wrong side of every issue of concern to ordinary Americans; Social Security, the war in Vietnam, equal rights, civil liberties, church-state separation, consumer issues, public education, reproductive freedom, national health care, labor issues, campaign-finance reform, the environment and tax fairness. No political party could remain so consistently wrong by accident. The only rational conclusion is that, despite their cynical "family values" propaganda, the republican party is a criminal conspiracy to betray the interests of the American people in favor of plutocratic and corporate interests, and absolutist religious groups.

I note that the same people who insist on a 24 hour "waiting period" for an abortion ( which makes it incredibly difficult for the less affluent who may have to travel great distances to get to the only provider) object to one for firearms purchases. And vice versa.

With the obvious difference being nobody ever got a skin full of idiot oil and whipped out an abortion and shot their neighbor during a poker game.

This has me so crazy, I don't know what to say. It really is rape--not much different than having a coke bottle shoved up your vagina. (And if any man wants to argue with me on this--I've had three transvag procedures...so don't you dare tell me I'm wrong.)
Man, the dope's that there's still hope.

But, but you are looking at this all wrong. No one knows what's better for women than rich, white, repub MEN and the MALE clergy. Just close your eyes, as one repub suggested, and shut the hell up! They know what's best for you.
Oh, and I completely agree with you. IT IS RAPE!!!!!!!!!

I really don't know why there is not much more outrage over this. I am ready to take to the streets...seriously. This is UNBELIEVABLE. If you dare to get an abortion, we will force you to have an unnecessary invasive procedure to punish you.
You're damn right it's rape.

Well, in Texas where this is now law, with a repub state legislature and a bat schitte crazy repub governor, nothing short of an armed insurrection would change it. Is it any wonder that rational, intelligent people HATE repubs who hold public office?

It's set to pass here, too. I don't hate Republicans, but I hate this bill and I don't know why more women are not up in arms about it. Even if you think abortion is murder, do you really think raping the person having the abortion is an appropriate response? You kinda lose every inch of moral ground you ever had.

You must first have a moral ground in order to lose it. These repubs are the farthest thing from being moral. They are beyond words.
Oh, and I don't hate all repubs. Just the vast majority of the one's who hold public office.

You know what? I really don't hate anybody. But I am angriest at the women who are literally taking this lying down. No one is stopping them from fighting back...this is a women's issue and if they think it's perfectly fine to have their government invade womens' vaginas as punishment...I really don't know what to say.

Well, I do! And I believe EVERY woman who has a husband who supports this rape, should withhold any and all sexual actions until every one of these draconian laws are overturned. PERIOD!

Just out of curiosity...is there ONE member of this board that thinks this is acceptable? Male or female/Republican/Democrat/Independent?
Keep in mind that the shaming wand goes INTO the woman's vagina. It's not a security device that goes atop your clothes.

Fortunately we have, for the most part, fairly sane repubs here. I would be very surprised if any of them supported this rape of American women. If they tell us the truth, that is.

Never assume anything pertaining to righties.
Personally, I think the Crickets is them being so ashamed of the repub party for endorsing this travesty to womankind, that they are too embarrassed to reply. At least I hope that is why the silence.

is there any place that i can get actual information about abortions? i try to have informed opinions about important issues but i find it impossible with this because anyone who claims to know about it just speaks/writes angrily and goes on about how everyone else is lying.
