    I think the it is the opposite:..everyone is saying that men telling women how their bodies work and what they should and shouldn’t see in order to enforce a specific agenda is wrong. It’s killed republicans time and again and yet they keep doing it.

    That is an extreme view and their numbers are a small, small fraction of the number of anti-choicers who believe no abortions, no exceptions. I find it cruel beyond words for a woman who has been raped and impregnated to be forced to carry until birth. I would never wish those circumstances on anyone, but I bet a whole bunch of those anti-choicers couldn't get to a clinic fast enough if the woman was their daughter or wife.

    Where did I say that? Your point wasnt in line with what I was discussing with another poster.

    Attacking prolife people for taking away a womens right to health and body rings hollow when you turn right around and do the same thing a bit later on.

    We are all forced birthers.

    How many periods have you had in your life? Every woman is different and cycles can be upset by lots of things. 16-18 weeks seems like a reasonable mark.

    Let me give you an example that even you can understand. I can read about you getting kicked in the nuts, I can watch you get kicked in the nuts, therefore I KNOW exactly what it's like to get kicked in the nuts. No?

    What are you referring to? I wasnt struggling. I am 100% in support of rape and health exclusions. I find rape to be a health exclusion actually.

    Pretty sure you're thinking of someone else

    By the way, at least the legislature has learned one lesson, they brought the bill forward with two women as sponsors.

    I am switching to R as soon as DeSantis announces, perhaps sooner. I really, however, don't want their stuff in my mailbox. I guess I'll just do what I do when I get a solicitation with a postage paid return envelope from the NRA...cram as much of their stuff in it as will fit to jack up the cost of sending it back.

    no, providing them with a reasonable time to make a life changing decision is vastly different than removing that time and taking that decision from them.

    Here in NC an NPA can just chose which parties primary to vote in. Does Florida still make you have a party affiliation to vote in the primary?

    You are correct. The reference was to struggling over the woman whose baby was certain to die. I deleted the reference to you from my post and apologize to you for my error.
