Amen.
At almost 1,000,000 abortions per year, a 32,000 reduction from what it would be potentially isn’t much, but a step in the right direction.
I’m sure the abortion industry simply sees it like this: 32,000 x $800 = $25,600,000 in lost potential revenue.
This debate is really just about money. US Congress is for sale and if you have enough money backing you, you can disembowel a journalist and US resident in an allied NATO country and we won’t do much, as is the case with Kashoggi: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45812399
If you have enough importance (meaning money) you can drive tanks over pro-democracy students on Tienanmen square in 1989 and that same year US Congress will vote for most favored trade status and US policy makers will support WTO membership for China. And that held true for Democrat and Republican administrations! Only Trump rocked the boat.
I’m not trying to be negative, but the simple reality is that if you want our government to change, you need to put money behind it by taking legal action (target everyone that has a finger in the business), doing effective PR campaigns and trying to engage the arts and entertainment, going after top level bureaucrats (try to get them ousted), lobbying, funding political campaigns and those parties that support our cause. Candle vigils and prayers don’t matter in this country where God and money are nearly synonymous in the political arena.
In the minds of the criminals the rule us that’s 32,000 more turd worlders that could have been imported.
500k more women dem voters. Worth it? Maybe.
Not for long. There will be referendums in many states next year.
Abortion cost the GOP everything. It put off non fundie women, and that’s a fact.
That said, we should support each state legalizing abortion if that's what they want to do.
It should be a state issue, and it is now. But the cost of that was losing 90% of the under 40 female (or so) and that’s just how it is.
Holy rollers think it was worth it, I do not.
How many of these mothers will be nurturing and raising these infants in a loving tenderly character-affirmative way ?(rhetorically offered)
The GOP needs to get rid of the holy roller robinson types like they did with the young earth creationists.
We lost the under 40 female vote, what’s going to make up for it? The old white men are dying off. The Mexican Catholics might have a chance, if they don’t have to worry about religion much.
There is no abortion ban. they just put limits on the number of weeks you can have one. And who cares if it cost the Gop anything. You all ever heard of standing on your principles. Evidently not. and you can cut out with your insult of: holly rollers. you are not a conservative or a human being.
That’s the attitude that cost us.. ‘who cares if we lose’ over it. Well, we lost a lot. I don’t think that was worth it, but some may.
Folks need to REMEMBER, that these new changes were voted in by the citizens of those STATES. And not one of them voted to BAN the killing of one’s own offspring. They just put limits on the NUMBER OF WEEK you can kill it. If some people had their way, they’d let them kill it up until 9 months they are that evil. And remember, it’s not the GOPs or the Democrats Governments. it’s WE THE PEOPLE’S GOVERNMENT. stop letting them get away with this crap.
so winning is more important than a baby’s life. that’s sick and you are not a conservative or a human being.
It cost us. That’s all. It cost us power and everything.
Fanatics love to die on hills though.
somebody has to step up for the unborn on this forum. the venal comments i’m seeing are making me sick to my stomach, i’ll take the other side of the what’s more important: the GOP winning elections or the unborn living. (yeah, i know the basic claim in their argument itself is fallacious, i.e., the GOP isn’t necessarily losing any election because it’s pro-life, they’ve been losing elections since long before Dobbs, but that’s the way these feckless, ends-justify-immoral-means republican acolytes are presenting their specious argument, so i’ll counter it directly on their terms.)
evil is lessened in this world and God’s will done every time a baby is not aborted. Christians have been leading this battle against Roe and convenience murder in the womb for many decades and the fight goes on now in the states.
it is exactly analogous to the centuries long fight Christians led against involuntary servitude in Britain and America. and if, as Lincoln said, two drops of soldier’s blood must be shed for every drop of blood drawn by the bondman’s lash, then so be it.
the true Church of God as the Body of Christ will be never back off because the preservation and protection of innocent life is non-negotiable, and non-political for a true Christian. i’d rather be cursed by the GOP than cursed by God Himself. the GOP will be damned if it supports abortion. If God be for us, who will stand against. history has ultimately always approved God’s Righteous Will over man’s temporal and morally bankrupt desires.
and always, always, thank you Clarence Thomas for spearheading the decades long effort to save the unborn in the USSC. they always say Dobbs, but it was really you, kind Sir, who got us Dobbs. thank God for you and i pray that your service there will continue for many more blessed years.
You must be about 12. that you are more worried about costing a political party anything who has done nothing for us but stab us in the back. You are a low information voter. I told you, there is no abortion ban. GO DO SOME RESEARCH. Or go ask a holy roller maybe they can edumacate you.
Heh, I know it’s up to the statez. I’m just saying, and you should agree, that moving it from RvW to ztates cost the young female vote. There is no arguing that.
oh right, like they are going to change their minds now. That doesn’t mean the other citizens should give up their morals, standards and principles just so some political party that is not on our side anyway to win. Just get everyone you know out to vote for President Trump so we can get this Biden regime and his comrades out of OUR LIVES. And then we can work on cleaning out the good ole boys club of the GOP,e who keeps stabbing us in the back and selling us out.
