Will We Abandon Womens Rights in the Name of Progressive Politics?

[Vesper]

148. But we're not the ones doing that.

I keep asking for proof of candidates who sponsored anti-choice legislation, including abortion bans. No one seems to be willing to provide them.

It's not selective outrage, it's the selective purity in service of a guy whose legislative history is being deliberately ignored.

I keep bringing up the 20 week ban he sponsored and the telemedicine killing bills, but people keep answering with spin about ultrasounds, which when you look at the bill doesn't match the talking points.


So, please. Document this long history of the party supporting candidates that have sponsored extremist right wing anti-choice bills and why the people who thought pragmatism was a dirty word and were proud of the purity, are excusing this impure endorsement of a small time mayoral race in which a documented right wing extremist is running with a D next to his name.

I'm mad at anyone supporting people with this type of legislative history after stating that we must not be rigid about supporting women's rights as he attacks a man for not adhering to his own rigid vocabulary.
