but I just herad today Texas went from having over 20 aborton clinics to 5. Pretty big state to just have 5 abortion clinics. Most women who voted for Bush said, "oh they'll never ban abortion". Just look at all the anti abortion legislation that has been passed in the last 10 years. AND ON OBAMA, Reed AND PELOSI'S WATCH?
Prochoice can be defended by the Constitution if Democrats would enforce that consistently.
It is consistent with religious freedom not to make laws that establish a religion.
However, with the Democrat politicians passing anti-choice laws, they defeat their own arguments.
We would need leaders standing on Constitutional principles, and even the prolife Republican politicians like
Rudy Guiliani and Kay Bailey Hutchison have stood up for prochoice beliefs in keeping with Constitutional
principles of religious freedom and limited govt not interfering with personal beliefs.
Unfortunately most Democrat politicians aren't standing on Constitutional principles
but keep relying on party politics to push their points. so this is an inferior position compared
with defending prochoice and freedom under the First and Fourteenth Amendment.
you cannot enforce laws consistently if you are too busy violating them for other people.
as long as Democrats keep pushing only their agenda and beliefs, at the expense
and exclusion of other beliefs, they make the same mistakes they are lobbying against.
