At least democrats now have some accomplishment to brag about

Dismembering living unborn children

[WilliamCooper1]

So sick. Abortion is big business and has nothing to do with “women’s health.”

[Blood of Tyrants]

Abortion is the only right that DemocRats believe to be absolute.

[loveliberty2]

Bottom line here: socialism, in practice, will not work unless population is limited and controlled. Today's Democrats/Progressives understand that, and that is why they are absolutely unyielding to any restrictions on abortion.

Remember Biden's compliments on the Chinese policy on one-child?

Progressives have/had a goal of "fundamentally changing" America from its founding concept of Creator-endowed rights to life, liberty and property to one of government-restricted rights to life and liberty; and of a government right to "redistribute" the wages and property of one citizen in favor of another/others by self-appointed elites in government.

The Progressive effort described above has only been disrupted: that goal has not ended.

Progressives are unimpressed by arguments against pain in the unborn. They are impressed only by arguments which further their goals of "changing" America from its foundations to fit their own oppressive ideology.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Of course it didn't pass. Because the Republicans and the pro-life establishment wants to keep it an issue for 2018 and continue the donation gravy train from the base.

All they have to do is pass Ron Paul's 2005 Sanctity of Life Act which would have destroyed Roe vs Wade forever and returned abortion back to the states where it belongs.

But nooooo....

[Army Air Corps]

The Democrats have an insatiable lust for the blood of the unborn.

Collins and Murkowski joined the filibuster.

[RKBA Democrat]

40 plus years of political involvement by Christians in gop politics and what do we have to show for it? The congress won’t even pass a law to protect kids that are essentially viable.

Politics is a suckers game.

[tflabo]

Innocent baby blood will hang around their necks into eternity. Senate is a worthless collection of cretins save for a few.

Ezekiel 16:21, 22 (Fenton translation) - “Were your whoredoms nothing? but that you [Israel] must murder My children, and give them to be passed around as food?”

[Arm_Bears]

Pubbies didn’t want the ban.

If they did, arrangements would have been made to pass the bill.

[campaignPete R-CT]

Nelson Florida, not voting!

Murkowski Alaska. No !

I would say good for Casey, Manchin, and Donnelly...but this was a safe measure and it's certain they were given permission by their leadership to do so.

[Licensed-To-Carry]

May the judgement of God be swift and complete on those evil & wicked baby killers. The very bottom of hell for all eternity is waiting for those who kill innocent children and do not repent.

[hillarynot]

And how did Durbin vote --

Durbin quote on abortion in 1982
My record of opposition to abortion on demand has been public record for eight years. Long before my opponent moved to this district I worked closely with Springfield Right-toLife and served as master of ceremonies at the annual banquet. As recently as this January I was honored to serve again as Master of Ceremonies at the annual Observance in the State Capitol for the fifth time.

So, it is interesting to see that Planned Parenthood, perhaps the most unbending, rigid outfit when it comes to demand an absolute right for a woman to have an abortion without any attempt to balance a child's right to life, is presenting Durbin with a "Lifetime Achievement Award." Durbin also stated. ---A right to abortion is not secured by this Constitution. The Congress and the several States shall have concurrent power to restrict and prohibit abortions. Provided, That a provision of law of a state which is more restrictive than a conflicting provision of a law of Congress shall govern.

[Slyfox]

Can someone answer me why they need more than 51 votes?

[lizma2]

Always wonder what the progressives would do if someone started doing late term abortions on dogs?????

You know they would go ballistic.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

The super majority “rule” of 60 votes for cloture screwed it all up once again. All by design.

[Jrabbit]

McCain is back?? How unfortunate. Especially for the unborn.
