    Allegedly caused by meth use, but that doesn’t make it any less absurd. For a junkie it’s probably better to miscarry early on than to produce a deformed baby.

    I read no contortion. Everyone said it was stupid. Tilly said they should all be relieved of their duty.
    Your bias against the right has been exposed.

    1/4 of the South Carolina legislature republicans supported this bill.

    I am absolutely biased against what is now called the right, and most of those who call themselves republicans. That’s not a secret.

    You made the comment that we(pubs) were really contorting ourselves on the argument.
    I said that was not the case.

    The contorting is trying to rationalize that these republicans want to make the death penalty a punishment for abortion. Instead of disowning it several here have tried to downplay it. I don't think this is a trivially small group within your party.

    Why do you keep saying that when it’s clearly incorrect.
    Not one poster had agreed it’s a good idea.

    Several went to great lengths to say the thread title and the article was wrong and focused on the wording vs the substance. This happens all the time. Instead of just agreeing that the legislation is bad, and leaving it at that, there is a deflection about the wording of the OP and reporting. It’s all part of the tribal back and forth.

    I read the entire thread and I saw that too. Maybe you missed a page?

    With the possible exception of Anna Polina Luna(tic) she is probably the hottest member of Congress.

    Maybe the current Supreme Court will follow the precedent set by Roe v. Wade, divide the life of a woman into young, middle-age, and old and only allow execution of young and some middle-aged women who have abortions.

    Perhaps celebrating fornication at a prayer breakfast is considered cool now, at least if it's heterosexual fornication? If she'd mentioned another woman, I suspect we would have heard complaints about her shoving her sexuality down everyone's' throats.

    Sean Hannity ribs Rep. Mace for edgy sex joke at prayer breakfast

    “Uh, I guess you’ll get home sometime around midnight tonight, so, um, I thought it was pretty funny at a prayer breakfast,” Hannity said. “Good for you for having a great sense of humor.”

    I'd like to see the reaction if AOC or Pete Buttigieg did that bit. Fire and brimstone... cats and dogs sleeping together.
