    For those that are anti abortion with the rape/incest exceptions, why? If abortion is murder, why is it then not murder if the fetus was generated during a crime? So, it's only a baby and a person if both parents were consensual? Wouldn't that sort of incentivize women to make rape allegations? What level of proof is needed to attain this exemption? How could this claim possibly be adjudicated in time?


    Of course there are no answers to these, because it absolutely isn't about protecting babies.
    At least ones like the ND guy are consistent

      No pro-life person ever wanted those exceptions. They just pretended they did to make their ultimate goal seem less extreme.

Dr. Mrs. thinks this will finally sink the GQP, but I think every conservative with the slightest character or intelligence long ago became an implacable enemy of the Republican party.

          I've always argued the only "pro-lifers" who are ethically consistent are those who opposed abortion in all circumstances except possibly life of the mother since then it would be a choice between two lives.

          • See the thing is, people on the left complain about their comrades all the time. We all b itc h and moan about our team constantly. Millions of democrats who voted for Obama one year did not vote for Hillary in another. We hold them accountable, or at least attempt to.

            We hold each other accountable too. People aim their arrows at me on this forum. Kep and Handy go at each other all the time. I've even seen plenty of criticism directed at the most reasonable posters in this forum who are almost always measured and low key with their posts. But the other side? No. ****ing. Way. Lock (goose) step in place with each other 99.9999999999% of the time. All those trump loving morons who complained about J.D. Vance in Ohio being a trump supporter in name only? Come November they ain't pulling the lever for Tim Ryan, who at the very least would be an open-minded competent establishment member of the Senate. No they will ALL vote for Vance, some of them singing the same "both sides do it" song.

            SO long story short, if you pull the "both sides are bad" trope out of your pocket, you are at best a clueless (and sadly gullible and naive) idiot who is doing the bidding of fascists and authoritarians. And anything less than at best you are complicit in the downfall and should be considered an enemy of the good and of this failing democracy we call the United States of America.

                I just want to clarify anytime I am critical of Democrats it isn’t in any way saying they are equally as bad as the right.

                Being in power when times are tough is the worst possible position for a political party to be in. The Democrats need to pull out all the stops to limit the damage this fall.

                • And I want to clarify that during a time when the very survival of our democracy is at stake any notion from the "both sides are bad" team puts you on the wrong side. It doesn't need saying for one thing, because as human beings (allegedly) of course all politicians have flaws. But it gives cover to people to turn a blind eye to the real evil. And right now that is ALL centered on one party. All of it. If we voted only for democrats for the next 10 years, not only would this country not suffer defeat, it would improve. Full stop. End of story. Period.

                  Once America is not looking over the edge of the cliff and we have a functional and LOYAL opposing party it might be OK to remind us that both sides have their flaws if people are getting too connected to one side or the other. Right now, as far as I am concerned, if there is a D next to your name or the Democratic party has endorsed you (like for Judges in some states) you can have my vote. If there is an R next to your name, you can **** yourself with a rusty railroad spike and die a horrible, slow and painful death.

                    Not being in power so people like Senator Collins can hurt you is worse.
