Not to mention, there is a little problem inside the Republican party: nutcase religious fundamentalists, many (but not all) of the radtrad Catholic variety, who will always push for the most extreme "pro-life" agenda no matter how harmful it is to women. Anyone who has the slightest doubt should watch a couple days worth of fundamentalist TV like EWTN.

(4,747 posts)Bash probably also buys into Nikki Haley's claim that we need to find a consensus on abortion when in fact there has been a consensus on abortion for decades. She just happens to be on the wrong side.
