    Cool you skipped the question I asked and in turn dedicated this to Harry Reid and may he Rest In Peace. The GOP blocked Obama’s lower court nominations as you know so he had a valid reason to do what he did. McConnell went nuclear on SC nominations end of discussion…Turley won’t save us…lol.

    For the last 50 years Roe has been on every federal ballot … for the Republicans. Too bad the Democrats were not of liked mind.

    Going forward it will be interesting to see if the Democrats can turn out voters on the choice issue as well as the other issues the SCWs have in their sights: contraception, gay marriage, gay sex, premarital sex, “recreational” postmarital sex, women’s voting rights (not mentioned in the Constitution), segregation, all rights for black people, etc.

    Social Conservative Warriors.

    There are documentaries that have been made about the genesis of the Pro Life movement. When the courts shot down the separate-but-equal laws, SCWs were politically organized but realized that segregation was a lost cause. Screaming “N*gga, N*gga, N*gga” (quoting Lee Atwater) was not a winning political strategy. In search of their next political cause, the SCWs settled on Pro Life, even though at the time abortion to them was no BFD.

    didn't realize "Where's Harry Reid when you need him?" was a serious question seeing as how he is dead

    Texas AG closes office, creates annual holiday to celebrate overturning Roe

    Paxton announced that he would close all of his offices for the remainder of the day “as a memorial to these babies.”


    “Our hearts and prayers go out to all of them,” said Paxton. “Never again should something like this happen in America.”

    The Office of the Texas Attorney General released a statement affirming Paxton’s decision to enshrine June 24 as a holiday and announced that abortion is now illegal in Texas due to a “trigger law” outlawing the practice that was implemented just after the Supreme Court ruling was passed down.

    I guess incest and rape don’t happen often enough to keep a few of these places open? There needs to be a few loopholes added to these laws.

    I don’t like this logic. Why should rape and incest be a more legitimate reason for a woman right get an abortion than she does not want to be pregnant for her own private reasons.

    If abortion was murder, then there wouldn’t be carve outs. But abortion isn’t murder, it’s abortion.

    Oh I understand you just won’t answer any questions you don’t deem worthy. You can rightfully **** off with that way of thinking. This is why we need less fossils in Congress and more of the open younger generation to take the mantle.
