So... Rebuplicans support voter ID laws, then remove DMV’s in poorer areas, but ALSO refuse to support voter ID laws where voting is now an automatic right gained upon obtaining a drivers license in addition to the more traditional way of proving residency to vote. DO YOU WANT VOTER ID'S OR NOT GOP, YOU DONT GET TO…

Yep. I got pregnant at nineteen and terminated. Went on to marry the guy a couple years later. Eleven years after that, I had my daughter.

If I’d been forced to carry that first pregnancy to term, I’m certain that child would have entered into the system before they turned two. I was in no position to care for a…

Same! I was one of those “Well, only in rape or incest or life of the mother...” assholes when I was young. It was once I had my daughter that I re-evaluated my stance. I would never want her to think she is obligated to have a child if she doesn’t want to. Some people treat it as if it’s some sort of punishment for…

Hell yeah. Women’s bodies are so different, and what works for onr woman might not work for another. Some women can get pregnant at the drop of a hat, whereas some struggle with infertility their entire adult lives. It’s frustrating to talk to people who say things like, “Well, -I- never had an unplanned pregnancy…

Thank you so much for sharing your story.

So you’re saying you made a well thought out, reasonable decision about your health and your body; the people responsible for it did not judge or subject you to their personal bias; and your supportive partner was there for you and cared for you before, during and after.

This isn’t about their son. This about his feelings of control. Waah waah, I’m a giant baby and this woman won’t let me control her life!

Why don’t any of these morons know that a “lame duck” president is a sitting president after the next president is elected? So from November to January of their last term. The entire last year of the last term does not make a president a “lame duck”!

To be fair, his opinions did keep me awake in law school. But all of his “fun” rhetoric and nasty comments about his colleagues’ positions served to erode public respect for the court and the judiciary, I think.

The GOP plan to obstruct considering his replacement for 11 months makes me sick.

Always love the “it’s not in the Constitution” hypocrisy. If Scalia et al want something: “It’s not prohibited by the Constitution!” And if they don’t want it: “It’s not specifically protected by the Constitution!”

As far as gun control - these constitutional originalists are *totally cherry picking* - if you’re gonna be literal + O.G. - it only applies to MILITIAS and the weapons they refer to are SINGLE LOADING MUSKETS.

I want Rachel Dratch as Debbie Downer to play Ted Cruz on snl soooo badly.

Hypothetical question with my limited knowledge of the true functioning of government—If Cruz was indeed dead set on filibustering a candidate, he would therefore have to be present on the senate floor, correct? So, depending on when it happened, this could force him to take a serious amount of time away from…

A Supreme Court justice, ideally, is not a Democrat or a Republican but rather someone who can impartially evaluate complicated legal issues irrespective of politics.

When did “advise and consent” become “obstruct and subvert”? Will it end when the Black man leaves the White House, or this the new politics as usual?

“I love the Constitution! Except when it doesn’t say what I want it to say. Then I just start making shit up.”

This is the only Lame Duck I see

Eh, I got married because I got pregnant, at 20. We married after our son was born when we were 21 and 22. Lots of hardships, to say the least. We learned (after the fact) that guests actually took bets as to how long our marriage would last. Six months was at the top end with a few being generous at one year. We are…
