The net effect, I'm afraid, is that Defense Of Abortion Rights has been set up in our country as an alternative (and highly intolerant and puritanical)
religion. As long as a person toes the line and adheres to the Defense Of Abortion Rights belief system, they can be a bloodsucking monster but still count on 20-30% of the vote (their co-religionists). Meanwhile someone can be the most decent person on earth but if they do not adhere to the Abortion Rights religion, they are treated as an infidel and scum not worthy of drawing breath.
It's not a healthy situation, for any nation.
