WTF? Nancy Pelosi, why are you saying this crap? [View all]

Being anti-abortion is a personal choice, but being personally opposed while supporting a woman's right to choose for herself? OK they can keep their card - That was Mario Cuomo's position after all.

But being anti-choice is certainly reason enough to kick them aside - Choice is a bedrock level part of the Democratic Party and it needs to remain so.

Stop this watering down our positions. It won't help, it doesn't matter to any of the pepe crowd, and moderates are already pro-choice
