Sen Sanders: These flags mark all the abortion restrictions in the Republican repeal of Obamacare.

[Donkees]

These flags mark all the abortion restrictions in the Republican repeal of Obamacare. This is a major rollback of women’s rights.

1. Another hot button they are just fucking INSANE about. Fucking AB, God, Guns, Gays.

2. Is there a link?

5. Would like to see that too.

I don't think this poster comes back to his threads that much, though. So he might not see your post.

3. They are all falling over each other to see who can be more like Torquemada on this issue

I took a look at some of the text of their "act." Somewhere between the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witch Trials.

You'd think they had gone into caucus and asked themselves, "now what could we do to make life even more miserable for the average American community than we have done already?"

13. Exactly. They see it as a twofer.

21. That's not what that means.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

22. You said nothing. You only said "That's not what that means", which adds nothing.

Cat got your tongue?

Got a frog in your throat?

23. I just get tired of having to explain this over and over.

25. Thanks. . . nt

26. And, just so it doesn't go unsaid, I didn't mean that last post to be sharky.

Just gettin' cranky in my dotage I guess. Please excuse.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

27. It's all good now. The post you linked to was very informative. No worries. . . . nt

6. You present this as though it's a quote of Senator Sanders, i.e.,

Sen Sanders: "These flags mark all the abortion restrictions in the Republican repeal of Obamacare." but without the quotation marks (which is what the DU system now does, it strips out quotation marks sometimes).

Where did this come from? When did he say this?

Thank you.

Bernie is working hard for women.

28. Good. Perhaps he'll revisit his idea that reproductive health care

isn't an economic issue.

It’s not just a misstatement from Mr. Perez or a slight from Mr. Sanders. Democrats, in their postelection soul searching, are trying to learn the lessons from Donald Trump’s jolting victory and how they might win back the presidency. And some — all men so far, it should be noted — argue that the party should move away from so-called social issues like abortion and reproductive freedom.

Instead, these men contend, the party’s focus must be on economics. The glaring mistake they all make, however, is thinking that there is any way to disentangle reproductive rights from economic issues.

8. Okay, it is a tweet from Sanders from around 8:30 this morning.

That must be a copy of Graham-Cassidy, and do note the flags.

Dinesh D'Souza retweeted it, a nice reminder of the sort of creeps the Repubs need to keep them afloat.

16. Donkees, these days all unattributed posts should be queried. For very obvious reasons.

17. "Ordered to lie on the table"

The only part of the legislative process Republicans seem to take seriously.

18. Don't forget premiums jump $17,320/yr if you've ever been PREGNANT or are pregnant
