In reply to the discussion: Democratic Party Draws A Line In The Sand On Abortion Rights [View all]countryjake
(8,554 posts)Some extremely fertile women are living proof that the "99%" is no guarantee that they will not need an abortion if they go ahead and have intercourse using the Birth Control that is available.
I would never consider any person who declares that abortion should be "rare" a very fierce advocate for either Women's Rights or Reproductive Choice, but someone who actually has no idea how easily accidental unwanted pregnancy happens to women in this country. That sort of ignorance is how the Rethugs get away with promoting and pushing restrictions on our rights to millions of women who continually vote against their own interests.
I've been Pro-Abortion since I marched the streets, fighting for Women's Rights, back in the sixties... I was Pro-Abortion when I joined this site, back in 2001... and politicians of every stripe be damned, I would never attempt to moralize, smear, condemn, or shame any woman who has had or needs more than one abortion. I call bullshit on your use of the word "proliferation". Why in the world would you say that?
(on edit)
Now that I've seen the edit you've made to your own response, I realize that your thread wasn't really about what Tom Perez has stated about abortion rights, at all, but simply more condemnation of an ally who isn't even a member of our Party, so I'm outta here (and I'm taking my recommendation with me!). I see no point in debating with you like that when our entire planet is currently under attack by reactionary wing-nut forces.
