Remind me again.

Which big name politicians are it who are the BIG abortion supporters that allow places like PP to operate legally in this country?

Could it be Pelosi? Kennedy? Kerry? Biden? Cantwell? Gillibrand? Schumer?

If abortion wasn’t legal in this country, who works there wouldn’t be an issue.

Besides, MB, you’re absolutely SURE of the religious affiliation of every abortion provider and worker?

hmmmm......

Would this help? It’s a Wikipedia article on one Robert Drinin. For those who don’t know of him, he played an important role in making abortion legal in the U.S. as he provided the political cover for Catholic politicians to support abortion.
He was also a Catholic priest.

“Throughout Drinan’s political career, his consistent support of abortion rights drew significant opposition from Church leaders, who had also repeatedly requested that he not hold political office in the first place.[1][3] Drinan attempted to reconcile his position with official Church doctrine by stating that while he was personally opposed to abortion, considering it “virtual infanticide,”[4] its legality was a separate issue from its morality. This argument failed to satisfy his critics. According to the Wall Street Journal, Drinan played a key role in the pro-choice platform becoming a common stance with politicians in the Kennedy family.[5]”

Sure. Any of them work for Planned Parenthood? Any of them active in the Church?

Besides, MB, you’re absolutely SURE of the religious affiliation of every abortion provider and worker?

Hitting a little close to home?
