Expert deflection by someone who seems unwilling to “engage in honest reflection and self-criticism” ... Just sayin’

Then around 6pm, Collins said that she now supports enshrining the holdings of Roe into federal law rather than in Supreme Court opinions.

Oh fuck off. You voted stupid and hence we’re losing RvW. Bernie not even being able to get the nomination is his own damn fault not hillary. Stop blaming Hillary for Bernie not being able to win the nomination.

Except it’s fucking true. Look at the states where Hillary barely lost in. Yeahhhh... lots of idiot voters. Next time don’t vote stupid. Thanks

It makes my blood boil that any of the Supremes think that their discussion of this case could include “Pregancy and raising a child not that hard in America.” Like, read the f*cking room. We just watched paid family leave get gutted. All support of mothers and families was just reduced because it has been arbitrarily

God, what a piece of shit.

Fuck these GQP’ers, but ultimately I still blame those non-voting fuckers in 2016. NOT VOTING HAS CONSEQUENCES and WHINING THAT BERNIE WASN’T YOUR CANDIDATE ISN’T AN EXCUSE NOT TO VOTE.

The adoption/foster care argument makes me want to scream. This completely ignores the fact that adoption can be traumatic for both parents and child, and places the burden (presumably) on state systems that are already inadequately funded and strapped. So are republicans going to adequately fund Medicaid services in

She got re-elected, that’s all she cared about.

Also, to the last part of your point, birth control fails. I know someone who got pregnant with twins on birth control. They were in a stable relationship, actually wanted kids eventually, and decided to have them but 1) it was their choice and 2) this was a few years ago and they had access to abortion if that was

UGH, this makes me BEYOND STABBY! This is what you get when  purity ponies “voted with their conscience” for Jill Stein et al, because Hillary was “too Establishment” or some such shit. This is what you get.

disagreement can be resolved at the ballot box

Fuck.

The “safe haven” argument is such bullshit. Even if you hand-wave away the difficulties of pregnancy, birth, and then immediately giving up the newborn within a few days of birth, the idea that that’s the last time the mother might encounter the child is increasingly untenable. Adopted children understandably often

If Conservative politicians know anything at all, it’s that their voters wouldn’t know a logical inconsistency if it smacked them in the face.  They can say anything they want.  Conservatism is about following the leader... not thinking.

The sad issue with this is that as ostensibly liberal people leave red states, those red states will become even more conservative and thus enforcing nationwide gerrymandering (in a sense) in that places with smaller, conservative populations will continue to have an outsized voice in the senate.

“Effective birth control is available”.

Ah so now conservatives 100% fine with using the “most other countries” reasoning for why we should support something.

the whole “give up your baby thing” would apply if the pro-forced birthers cared about the child after it was born. but since they don’t, it’s a false argument.
