The reality, for political reasons we should do as the democRATS do when talking about gun control for abortion. Simply lie and deny that we are going to pass abortion regulations....and when we get a majority, do as they do, and pass those very regulations that they denied in the campaign.

you can’t do anything if you don’t have a majority.

Being able to win an election has to factor in there somewhere as well.

True: But, if you would, please clarify just what it is you mean by “majority.”

Surely, you cannot mean we should merely settle for a majority of elected officials who haven an “R” after their names?

How many times have we been sold down the river by alleged “Rs” who voted “D” . . . When it REALLY mattered?

Answer: Far too often.

We need to elect officials who are uncompromising in their opposition to abortion.

Whether abortion is opposed via Federal or state legislation is a matter for debate. However, in keeping with the letter and spirit of the Constitution, I believe it better legislated at the State level.

Lest we forget, prior to the infamous Roe V. Wade decision, abortion was outlawed in something like 47 to 50 states. Roe v Wade overturned the laws of almost 50 states..., and this country has never since recovered.

Currently, abortion is legally practiced in all 50 states — though, I would hope, not for long here in Texas, Deo Volonte!

We don't do anything when we have the majority either, at least not on the issues that count. Reagan promised he would abolish the Department of Education, he was opposed to abortion and had all three branches to help but it didn't happen, didn't even come up. How about the money to the National Endowment for the Arts, that every Republican promises to defund it, yet they never bring it up when the have control.

Voting for RINOs is the same as voting for any other Tyrant.
