But they’re not being honest because they won’t address whether they think, legally, a woman with the means to raise a child should be allowed to terminate her pregnancy. We literally do not know what they want to do. You can’t say, “We’re going to end abortion by eliminating the conditions under which women, who…

The head of NARAL just spoke at the DNC and she talked about her own abortion. I was happy to see the issue represented at the dnc and i am glad they created a safe space for it to be discussed.

“What we can do is work towards a world where abortion does not have to be a choice and that’s where I’m trying to find common ground. Let’s work towards a place where women don’t have to make that decision.”

They're like the Democrats' version of Log Cabin Republicans.

I have a hard time reconciling their beliefs with women’s rights, but this is what pro-life efforts should look like. If you want to minimize the use of abortion, you have to build the education and support to do so, not just blame pregnant women for becoming pregnant.

For the millionth time, anti-choice people: If you don’t agree with abortion, don’t have one. Period. And stop condescending to women, telling us that none of us would have abortions if we just had enough support and money to raise a child. If I got pregnant right now, I would abort. If I got pregnant after winning…

Yeah no. Abortion on demand, for any reason. That's the only way women will have true parity with men. Fuck these guys.

Hi - why do you think you were underwhelmed? Genuinely asking.

At least they didn’t put her in the Obits like my hometown paper did.

I’ll do my part to remedy this by posting one of my favorite images of Hillary. Hillary looks like one bad HBIC in this campaign poster.

Hello! To clarify: I was not being snarky—quite the opposite.

I’d suggest you familiarize yourself with Ms. Reich’s body of work. As others have said, she doesn’t often traffic in the kind of dreary hipster cynicism we see over on Gawker.

I do. This is Jez, not Gawker.

Especially Chelsea. Oh my goodness. Imagine being her just then!

I believe it was sincere.

I cried today watching the roll call. And then again watching this.

Damn, DNC, between this and Bernie’s motion to nominate and the mothers of Sandra Bland, Trayvon Martin, etc. on stage, you really know how to chop up some onions.

One thing I will say for her, HRC is* a slightly off-putting nerd and, as a socially awkward and much less intelligent, less educated, more apathetic dweeb, I sympathize. I don’t mind a wonk for pres. Better than a beer-swilling New Englander with a ten-gallon hat and a coke-powdered nose (or, as in this election, an…

I honestly can’t find anything to be cynical about here. Objectively, Hillary Clinton was the person most qualified to be President running this election. She has earned my unenthusiastic vote.

This was a successful night. No screaming people from the CA delegation. The speeches were truly inspiring. I understand that there was some chaos by some childish protestors outside of the convention, but thankfully it was not covered by the media.
