When you all find out the REAL reason for abortion wars I promise your views on this will change.
And you will find out soon. Buckle up. It's going to be a very emotional ride. One you may not be prepared for.[/quote]

Taxes. And segregation. But mostly taxes. Religious conservatives didn’t care about abortion - many even supported it-  until the Carter administration ruled that their “donations” to their all-white schools were not tax exempt. That got them hopping mad.

Prior to that time, abortion was a fringe Catholic issue. We all know what the Catholics were doing with moms and babies in those days, and it was pretty awful business. Emphasis on *business* because that’s what it was (and is). Modern American evangelicals did not trust Catholics. But abortion brought them all together and kept them voting for corporate shills ever since on the premise that Roe might one day be overturned. I guess we’re about to find out what happens when the inmates have taken over the asylum.
