A near-total abortion ban was defeated in South Carolina with the help of the only three Republican women in the Senate, but after Tuesday’s primary, they’re losing their election bids.

Voters handed the senators – and winners of the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage award for people who risk their careers for the greater good – two losses and a runoff after they joined with Democratic women to defeat the measure, saying a pregnant woman shouldn’t lose control of her body as soon as an egg is fertilized.

Any Republican that wins the "coveted" (i.e. stupid lantern) Profile in Courage award, you know is worthless.

Two of the three Republican "Senate Sisters" were defeated on Tuesday. Another faces a runoff.

“control” can be had in friendly murder states where they will pay for the services with taxpayer money

a pregnant woman shouldn’t lose control of her body as soon as an egg is fertilized.

Except in the case of rape/incest they always forget the part about how the woman was in control of her body when she committed the act that led to the egg being fertilized.

Efforts to induce basic morality are painted by the left as “control,” when really it is self-control that ought apply. That’s how a civil society is able to function.

I call bs on that one.
My mom had several children she did not want ( including me) because her husband would not use or allow birth control.
Was she not supposed to have intercourse with her husband?

Are you saying your mother should have been able to abort you?

She could have offered you for adoption if she didn’t want you or your siblings. There are alternatives to the finality of abortion.

Your mother told you that?

It seems cruel.

Were your parents Catholic?

Well, so much for that narrative that the GOP will lose elections unless they become more pro-abortion. I’m so tired of hearing that — that suburban women will vote RAT on this one issue alone. I figure there are many suburban women in SC who voted.
