[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Democrat here. I’m not rewarding Democrats for:

-using women’s reproductive rights as a wedge issue
-never moving to codify Roe until we literally had a leaked draft showing Roe was over
-throwing the economy into recession
-causing inflation and ignoring numerous economists’ warnings in the process 
-destroying education and setting back disabled, poor, and minority children for at least two generations 
-relaunching the cold war
-eroding women’s rights by leading the charge of trans-identified men lying about biological realities and invading women’s spaces 
-wasting my time with these foolish Jan 6 hearings while letting off the few defendants they indicted with slaps on the wrist
-letting that thieving traitor Hunter continue to influence peddle and enjoy ill-gotten gains
-being all around freaking incompetent, useless, money grubbing buffoons

I’m voting R to save the Democratic party. Only through massive, painful losses does this party stand a chance of making the change needed.[/quote]

Good idea. Now we'll be on a fast track to the time when contraception and abortion are illegal. That is not going to be the utopia you envision. Read up on what happened when Romania outlawed them.[/quote]
Democrats let things get to this point in order to exploit the situation for votes. Let that sink in.[/quote]

This is true.  Why on earth didn't Democrats codify abortion rights into law when Obama was president (for eight years)??[/quote]

Because you don't codify constitutional rights. Which is what it was at the time [/quote]

It was never a constitutional right.  [/quote]

The supreme Court had upheld that it was protected under the constitutional right of privacy. So yes it was seen as a right. [/quote]

I'm saying this as a dem. Abortion rights were on borrowed time as soon as the roe v Wade ruling.  All abortion rights activists knew that, many of us got roe codified at the system level. Dems in Congress never wanted to waste political capital on abortion when they had the votes. Bringing on menses in the first three months of pregnancy was an acceptable practice in early America but never would have been considered important enough for the constitution. I guess we can just be glad they didn't include coverture.[/quote]
