Speaking to NBC’s Hallie Jackson, Kamala Harris this week talked about the one issue about which she speaks with neither teleprompter nor word salad: abortion on demand. Asked whether she would be willing to accept any “concessions” on this issue, Harris was categorical (perhaps the only time in her campaign): “that cannot be negotiable.”
Let’s unpack that rhetoric.
Harris repeatedly says she’ll “restore” and “codify” Roe v. Wade. Roe survived nearly half a century because pro-abortionists constantly pretended the decision did not legalize abortion on demand up until birth — i.e., for nine months of pregnancy.
But that is what Roe did. The Court talks about “trimesters” and state “interest” in “potential life,” but, in the companion case decided the same day as Roe — Doe v. Bolton — the Court adopted a definition of “health” that essentially meant whatever a woman wanted and her doctor would sign off on. Given the profitability of abortion to Planned Parenthood, the doctors would sign off on anything.
So let’s go into this election with eyes wide open. A vote for Kamala’s “codification” is a vote for abortion on demand through the moment of birth for any or no reason whatsoever. When pro-abortionists talk about abortion using the euphemism “reproductive health care,” it’s not just pretty language: they want to sanitize abortion to remove any consideration of any other reason other than the pregnant mother’s choice to have an abortion.
Americans have historically been uneasy about that, especially as pregnancy advances. They have not regarded abortion as something as ethically indifferent as, say, pulling a tooth. But that is exactly what Kamala Harris and the pro-abortion crowd want to ensconce in law.
Let’s also look at how Harris backpedaled from “religious exemptions,” refusing to say whether she would support, oppose, or concede them.

Sadly, that is appealing to many women voters and younger voters. Topic is put in TV ads.
Probably toying with the idea of having the Satan endorsement along with top celebrity ones.
Still not in Federal purview. The courts will just throw it out again. It is up to the abortionists to get laws passed in the 50 States. Tough shyt for them.
Did she not know that Latinos and many other groups are pro life. She is stupid.
Commie-La’s position: “Butcher babies in the womb! They’re just as bad as Trump and Hitler!!”
kamala and her cabal are mass murderers of babies and are also warmongers!
They want to keep racking up the body-count, for power and profit!
Kick them ALL out!
So Kamala’s end game is press all the liberal hot buttons to drive up liberal turnout. End with Trump = Hitler and extreme abortion positions.
“So Kamala’s end game is press all the liberal hot buttons to drive up liberal turnout. End with Trump = Hitler and extreme abortion positions.”
Right. The usual Marxist tactic. Accuse your opposition of being a dictator while espousing totalitarian policies yourself. And the dumbed down, useful idiots won’t even notice the dichotomy.
Meanwhile, Trump has stated clearly and repeatedly that he is for exceptions to rape, incest and the life of the mother re: abortion laws. A policy statement that the rabid left has conveniently and predictably completely ignored.
....very true, but I would imagine there are a lot of Christian men and women who will still pull the lever for her, “just because.....” she is a Person of Color and she squats to pee....is there anything else necessary....??
I think the POC are starting to resent the replacements.
Kamala Harris’s ‘non-negotiable’ abortion position.
Just thinks of the life long kickbacks she would receive from Murder Inc. for the feds (tax payers) to pay for it all it’s a plan.
Is she pro-choice — or will she be making abortion mandatory?
That seems to be the crux of the argument. If people don’t believe in abortion, should they be forced to perform them?
Just like the baker who didn’t approve of homosexuality or other forms of “expression.” Should they be forced to?
That is the crux of the First Amendment. One is entitled to their own belief and opinions — and shouldn’t be subjected to the limited understanding of the “fact checkers” who believe they know all that should and can be known.
That’s how we got to Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, et al.
The issue I have with the Left is they create laws to use the coercive power of the state to force people to do the Left’s will. Once they do that it will never stop. They will want more and more until there is no free will anywhere.
