"End of Everything" - Victor Davis Hanson
[Doug] Same line, it can't happen here was said in Venezuela, formerly the richest country in Latin America.
Why do our leaders and voters think we can do everything wrong and no harm will come of it? Completely insane.

I'm proud of Tom Emmer (R-MN) for his role in this.
I'm not sure what the legal impact is of having one chamber pass it.

Politics & Religion / Abortion Politics 2024
« Last post by DougMacG on May 24, 2024, 08:10:00 AM »This from the Left, warning themselves not to be too smug on the abortion issue:
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-is-counting-on-abortion-to-help-him-win-that-s-risky/ar-BB1mQfhN
Gallop: 34% believe abortion should be legal under all circumstance. In other words, Republicans are getting hammered on the issue but only 34% agree with the current Democrat position.
To the Republicans I say, this is a moral issue. You do not criminalize that which nearly half the people think is fine.
Also to the Republicans, you wanted this sent back to the states and you won, finally, so stop trying to get a federal ban on it.
The vast majority are in between complete ban and no restrictions. Reasonable time frame, reasonable exceptions is where state laws should be at this point.
6 weeks makes sense in fetal development (heartbeat) but doesn't take into account the mother's lack of awareness in the earliest phase of pregnancy.
Democrats were winning on this issue only as far as they could point to Republican overreach.
Key points in the article, Dobbs did not ban abortion, and most people believe it is (still) easy to get an abortion.
And like three wolves and a sheep deciding what to have for dinner, the unborn were not polled on the issue.
