Why are pro-life women scared of what they asked for?

They voted to protect abortion rights. Your comment makes no sense.

In Kansas. After they realized it is almost too late for this generation and that is liberals and moderates can't save them in Kansas unless they save themselves. Part of my family is from Kansas.

I still have conservative female friends, with daughters, who are celebrating the SC rulings and think Kansas did the wrong thing. They also hate "slutty" women and don't realize that abortion can also be medical care.

The current platform for Republican senators running for re-election calls for raising taxes on every poor and middle-class American.

It’s like some bad b&w movie, or right when they switched over to color (I wasn’t alive then so forgive me for not knowing the exact decade) where the husband cheats and the wife is upset and he wants to go back to how things were before he cheated after things blow up and he realizes divorce could really happen and would suck for him.

They are fixated on a fantasy world where every pregnancy is beautiful and every baby is a gift, and the only thing preventing that was Roe v Wade. This was *always* symbolic and metaphysical to them, and never grounded in the reality of women’s lives, children’s lives, or parenting.

I should add - this is why CJ John Roberts, who is a smart but essentially normal and mentally healthy person, was the Court moderate on abortion. He’s likely gone through family fertility struggles (since his 2 kids are adopted). I can’t emphasize enough that the other brand of Catholics on the Court are not mentally healthy. They are basically part of a cult where fertility is a religious sacrament and nothing to do with reality.

DH works closely with the CJ’s administrative people in the Judiciary. He says the CJ’s the most brilliant politician that he’s ever encountered, and he’s dealt with so many. DH says the CJ would have happily voted with the Dobbs majority if that vote wouldn’t elect Democrats. Unlike his hotheaded colleagues, he knew the electoral blowback would be ferocious.

DH says the CJ’s always wants to do the most minimal, sneaky thing possible to advance GOP/FedSoc objectives. In the Judicial administration he makes each appointment very carefully so that progressive decisions only result if there is no plausible way to act otherwise. Privatization of Judicial programs, underfunding criminal defense, hardening courthouses at the expense of IT security, etc. Maintaining archaic and cumbersome information systems so that big law firms are best suited to extract the information they need (vs plaintiffs attorneys, nonprofits, and academics). One of his classic internal tricks is to refrain from taking a position so as to appear apolitical when he knows the status quo advances conservative objectives. This being apolitical is in fact a political choice in the first place.

The CJ knew the infrastructure wasn’t yet in place to survive banning abortion. Dems control the Presidency and Congress. The coup didn’t work. The GOP hasn’t built up its Border Patrol and paramilitary forces nearly enough. The Jan. 6 Committee is hammering the party’s foundation. It wasn’t time to strike. Far better to turn up the abortion frog’s temperature another couple of degrees so that voters would still focus on inflation and gas prices, rather than boiling it altogether.

Dear lord, you must not care about women. Let me guess.. money is your god? You don't want to face reality. Stick your head in the sand until someone you know/love needs abortion, and then just go to a blue state to get the abortion?

I just don't see this as the most pressing issue right now across the US. Feeding one's family and sheltering one's family is much more important.

Kansas disagrees.

Not pressing?

If you can't afford to feed your family, you can't afford to have another kid. It's not like we have universal healthcare or a robust social safety net. People in red states are going to be scraping together every cent they have just to drive to get an abortion.

[Anonymous]

The women just agree with their men in public, but then vote the opposite once they're all alone at the ballot box.

[Anonymous]

The GOP's brand is to keep government out of people's lives, yet these laws are the complete opposite of that. Almost every American has either had an abortion herself (about 1 in 4 women have) or knows someone who has. People's personal experience with an issue is what most informs their opinion, and most Americans believe that abortion should be a personal choice.

+1 It’s crazy that pp doesn’t understand the relationship between reproductive rights and being able to feed and shelter one’s family.
