Sadly I think the overturning of Roe VS Wade mobilized Democrats and cost conservatives hard.

I think it’s sad that people would kill their own children but evidently some people are dead set on killing their own offspring.

Hope they enjoy a long lonely slide into old age with their cats.

Not only no, but hell no. Killing babies is the most disgraceful thing that can be allowed in a society.

The raw truth is never on the menu regarding abortion.....IT IS FOR DEPOPULATION.....It is to get rid of blacks and the poor...The black CEO of Planned Parenthood admitted as much in the NYTIMES April17th,2021....I rarely hear the pro-lifers talking about this piece from the PP CEO.....
Black and poor dem voters are voting to keep their own murderers in power.....To get rid of more of them............

As long as so-called, “Americans” continue to demand their “right” to kill infants, they are going to continue voting for the Dung Beetle Party turd rollers.

“...pro-lifers need to cultivate voters’ trust by emphasizing the need to limit rather than eliminate abortion...”

So, they want Pro-Lifers and the GOP to campaign on, “We should simply limit murder, and sure, murder in some cases is fine and dandy!”

People are not for abortion, they have been propagandized to that it’s a “reproductive right” and “not a human being”.

Even in this age of information, propaganda starting in grade school is very effective. I blame parents more than I blame propagandists.

The second is that a majority of Americans want limits on abortion, but they don’t want to eliminate it. They don’t want abortion on demand, but even less do they want an outright ban.

What they got in Ohio is abortion legalized until the moment the baby is delivered - it's an abomination. That's the outcome of insisting on complete abortion bans from the moment of conception - the pro-life side could have had abortion banned after 6 weeks or some other period. Trump understands this - its time the pro-life side did too. It's time to decide whether they want to prevent some abortions or prevent none - they will not be able to prevent all.

The politics of abortion is difficult to navigate.

How do we deal with abortion in our politics, when even many conservatives, have some liberal views on the abortion issue?

How do we deal with it, when so many people just in general, have liberal political views, and will vote for liberal abortion laws and regulations in referendums?

Adopt the language of the pro abortionists and quote Margaret Sanger, Hillary’s political hero.

“We fully support abortion of the BIPOC, poor, and LGBTQWTF+ community babies. They are pollution in the human gene pool and must be eliminated through care application of scientific and compassionate racial hygiene practices.”

“Sadly I think the…BLA BLA BLA…mobilized Democrats and cost conservatives hard.”

The democrats turn everything into a winning issue

Republicans help them with this wimpy victim rhetoric

Jesus said He cannot tolerate lukewarm ness.

That’s what this is.

No one’s going to win an abortion debate with conspiracy narratives

No one.

I pray sincerely that the moment our majority turns our backs on the innocent unborn, that God would no longer stay His hand and hold back from delivering the justice we all so richly deserve. If we are going to act like animals, then in Jesus' name treat us as such until the need for repentance overwhelms us. Amen. I care not even a little for political points if it means trading the life of a child to earn them. I fully intend to accept the redemption of my Savior and live in Heaven, rather than wear a millstone about my neck and sink into Hell.

The amazing thing to me is the Republicans & pro-lifers have never developed a coherent strategy about the abortion issue. The democrats made it a litmus test for just about every election and judicial selection. One would think that since Roe vs. Wade was unconstitutional from beginning to end, the pro-life folks would have developed a plan and strategy BEFORE it was overturned. Evidently, they gave no thought whatsoever to what comes after it’s overturned. Fecklessness or sabotage?

Lincoln’s approach led to the War Between the States.

There are degrees of “slavery”. An ancient Greek philosopher taken as a slave might just have to stick around and tutor the kids; serfs aren’t allowed a lot of freedom, but they couldn’t be whipped or sold on a whim; indetured servants could look forward to a day of freedom, and expect their children would also live free.

There are no degrees of abortion. Babies are allowed to live, or they are killed.

The “extreme” abolitionists also ginned up support for the Republican Party, got sympathetic juries and voters in key races. The souther states were going to secede whether it was John Brown or Abe Lincoln on top of the ticket.

Being a Pro-Life version of Stephen Douglas is NOT going to help he Pro-Life cause, and I am not going to pretend to be a moderate on the issue when I am not. I would support legislation written in the negative (abortions are not allowed when...) rather the positive (abortions are only allowed when...) as no abortions are legitimate. Same for funding.

This has gone beyond political but at least with Roe v. Wade overturned, it is easier to determine who the friends and foes are.

NEVER underestimate the Left’s bloodlust for killing unborn babies.
