The Democratic Party is telling millions of pro-lifers to get out
Fox News ^ | February 6 2020 | Charles Camosy

Until recently, I spent much of my time working hard to elect Democrats to public office — but the early presidential campaigning pushed me away from the party, as well prompting my resignation from the board of Democrats for Life, where I had served since 2014.

For someone who is progressive on most issues, this decision doesn’t come easy. Like most Democrats, I believe government has an energetic role to play to support women, families and children. I support paid family leave, help with unaffordable child care, labor-union rights, the Affordable Care Act, child and adoption tax credits and much else of the kind.

I’m worried about climate change. I’m an outspoken vegetarian. I believe in welcoming refugees and immigrants. I oppose needless wars.

Uhhhhh... yyyyeahhhh. I think they’ve been saying that for about 40 years now. There are pro-lifers who are just now figuring that out?

What does him being an outspoken vegetarian have to do with it? That’s not a Democrat platform.

Let’s be honest. Basically, Republicans mostly pretend to be pro-life. They don’t do anything about it, and they probably never intend to.

Yeah, it’s not a big enough issue for them to make them switch parties. Their hatred for things like the free market system and limited government overrides all else.

Buttigieg has crossed the line and is for infanticide. Did you think the DemocRATic Left would stop at Abortion? Uh, no, babies and the elderly are next and it is soooo predictable.

The Party has moved to the extreme left in these last few years. Trump's trolling has worked amazingly. Trump just sticks his toes right up to the line with a joke or an iffy statement and they and their media fall for it Hook Line and Sinker. It has forced them into Anti-American positions time and time again.

The fact that the mainstream media has also gone rabidly left also works against them. Thus it is harder than ever to tack to the middle for cover as they typically do every election season (also sooo predictable). The mainstream media will smear anyone who is not orthodoxically an Anti-American leftist these days.

Enjoy watching the DemocRATic Train Wreck currently in progress progressive(ly [no pun intended]) as they can't help themselves any longer.

Side Bar: Methinks the two Democrap Low Life, Buffoons, Schiff & Nadler are wasting their time trying to get John Bolton to testify as a witness, Why? The Bolton book is now #35 on the Amazon.com bestseller list and is diving like a sinking anchor. It is now officially “Bargain Bin” material!!!

There is a pro life Democrat in the West Virginia house of delegates, I’ve actually voted for him because he does vote for pro life issues and has a proven track record.

Maybe he’s going to have to change sides.

Yeah, I read the whole thing. Author is a hard left extremist except on this one issue. He even brags about being an “outspoken vegetarian.”

I’ll be he has a scraggly beard and a pony tail.

I’m not all that impressed. Now, if an author said that the abortion issue caused him/her to question left-wing dogma and join Trump Nation, then I would be impressed.

Poor Perez. He thought he was the “Leader of the DNC” only to discover to his dismay he has more hands up his ass than a sock puppet. LOL.

You have to be pretty brain damaged to be a libtard in the first place. Rational people have known for decades that infant sacrifice was the communion of the Church of the Rats. That this moron was clueless as recently as 2014 (and even more recently) puts him right in that IQ 85 sweet spot the Rats love.

Since this guy supports every other destructive idea in his party platform, I s’pect he will be voting Democrat this year.

For someone who is progressive on most issues...

As an aside, that's a problem for conservatives. A Dirtbag is still a Dirtbag. But they migrate over to Republicans/Free Republic, etc, and bring their pro dope, social justice, pro fag ideas with them.

We don't need them. Don't want them. Don't want them moving to decent states either. Although, we've already lost on that last one. Dirtbags are everywhere now.

The democrat party has chosen to protect and promote abortion, and to make us all pay for it. This is to reward the raging feminazis for their votes and money.
