Highlight:

Klobuchar says she supports allowing abortion restrictions in late pregnancy [View all] Polybius Jun 2023 OP

Dammit senator it's between the woman and her doctor. It's nobody else's business Walleye Jun 2023 #1

She's merely echoing Roe v wade, which also allowed some restrictions in the third trimester. pnwmom Jun 2023 #3

Nobody aborts healthy babies in the last trimester without a medical reason. Walleye Jun 2023 #5

No, it's the opposite. She's confirming the REAL position of Roe v. Wade. pnwmom Jun 2023 #8

OK I'll buy that, but did Roe v. Wade prevent women from medically necessary abortions? Walleye Jun 2023 #14

No. Abortions were still permitted to protect the woman's life or health. Ocelot II Jun 2023 #19

No, it did not. And she doesn't believe it should have. This is what she said: pnwmom Jun 2023 #77

If nobody does it without medical reasons, then the restrictions won't matter Polybius Jun 2023 #20

Which means that the R's have been lying when they say Roe v Wade pnwmom Jun 2023 #78

That is where life or health of the mother come in. This is what Roe vs Wade said as well karynnj Jun 2023 #27

That is how Row V Wade ruled Tumbulu Jun 2023 #31

Most would agree with Amy K on this. mzmolly Jun 2023 #2

Roe v Wade agreed with her on this. Abortions on demand till 26 weeks, pnwmom Jun 2023 #4

Important point cilla4progress Jun 2023 #6

Exactly. mzmolly Jun 2023 #12

Yes n/t shrike3 Jun 2023 #98

Exactly. She's saying what the majority of Americans believe NickB79 Jun 2023 #80

MOST women would rather trust their doctors to practice good medicine Warpy Jun 2023 #81

Politicians make laws mzmolly Jun 2023 #87

They are not qualified to micromanage medicine Warpy Jun 2023 #91

Why DarthDem Jun 2023 #7

It's exactly the holding in Roe v. Wade. Ocelot II Jun 2023 #9

Fair. DarthDem Jun 2023 #15

She's just restating Roe v Wade, which is what almost all Democrats support. nt pnwmom Jun 2023 #11

Fair point. DarthDem Jun 2023 #18

I suspect to help define an acceptable Democratic position for herself karynnj Jun 2023 #30

I can't answer the medical questions, but DarthDem Jul 2023 #106

She didn't "make an announcement." She answered the question Dana Bash asked her in an interview. pnwmom Jun 2023 #37

Okay DarthDem Jul 2023 #105

Her answer was that she supported Roe v Wade, same as always. pnwmom Jul 2023 #107

Like pretty much all nationally elected politicians, Klobuchar PatrickforB Jun 2023 #10

Read Roe v. Wade. She's just supporting Roe v Wade, which worked well for 50 years. pnwmom Jun 2023 #13

I agree with you completely. How about this: Walleye Jun 2023 #17

You said it better! Thanks! PatrickforB Jun 2023 #79

YES!!!!! Grins Jun 2023 #102

No one, No body owns my body but me. BarbD Jun 2023 #16

+1000 hamsterjill Jun 2023 #36

that's probably a pretty popular position prodigitalson Jun 2023 #21

Polls show the popular position is even less than 27 weeks Polybius Jun 2023 #22

Gradations of gestation were always the case under Roe. Always. Late termination is dangerous. Hekate Jun 2023 #23

Late termination is usually done in emergency/urgent medical situations -- Sky Jewels Jun 2023 #29

Why the hell do you think she's doing anything other than supporting Roe v Wade, pnwmom Jun 2023 #39

Thus, after 6 months a woman's life is up to the whims of hicks and hacks in state legislatures? paleotn Jun 2023 #42

No, Roe v Wade worked very well for 50 years, and was nothing like pnwmom Jun 2023 #44

This! + 10,000,000!!!! paleotn Jun 2023 #41

Her statement is idiotic on it's face. paleotn Jun 2023 #40

Late terminations are dangerous -- they amount to childbirth, which is itself dangerous Hekate Jun 2023 #43

I agree Rebl2 Jun 2023 #70

She could have been clearer by simply supporting truthisfreedom Jun 2023 #24

Yes she could have but PlutosHeart Jun 2023 #35

She simply stated what Roe v Wade calls for. Apparently some DUers weren't familiar with the ruling. pnwmom Jun 2023 #45

This is what she said, and she's being very clear. pnwmom Jun 2023 #74

Agree... Hope22 Jun 2023 #90

Stop Snackshack Jun 2023 #25

Stop insisting she did anything other than support Roe v Wade. pnwmom Jun 2023 #75

The sticking point is "Who determines what interferes with the life or health of the women?" Midnight Writer Jun 2023 #26

WTF?!?! Sky Jewels Jun 2023 #28

It is what Roe V Wade ruled, before picking on Tumbulu Jun 2023 #32

Senator, one-sided, unsolicited compromise and negotiations is ridiculous mysteryowl Jun 2023 #33

It wasn't a compromise on Klobuchar's part and it wasn't unsolicited. pnwmom Jun 2023 #46

No. Just No. Merlot Jun 2023 #34

RRRRRR!!! paleotn Jun 2023 #38

Repeat after me. Klobuchar merely explained Roe v. Wade. As a lawyer, she probably read pnwmom Jun 2023 #48

"I support allowing for limitations in the third trimester paleotn Jun 2023 #58

What do you think Roe v Wade said? That's what it says, and it worked well. pnwmom Jun 2023 #60

Did your actually read my post? Apparently not. paleotn Jun 2023 #63

The vast majority of us support Roe v Wade AS WRITTEN. And you're not going to find pnwmom Jun 2023 #64

Again, you just don't get it. Read for comprehension please. paleotn Jun 2023 #66

I agree, it doesn't happen. And that's why Roe v Wade worked well. pnwmom Jun 2023 #67

In that we can agree. In my mind Roe served one very important purpose. paleotn Jun 2023 #68

Who doesn't love a politician practicing medicine without a license...? dlk Jun 2023 #47

She's a smart lawyer who can read Roe v Wade and summarize what it says. pnwmom Jun 2023 #49

No one is disputing Klobuchar's credentials or disputing the language of Roe v. Wade dlk Jun 2023 #51

So you oppose Roe v Wade then? I think it worked well for 50 years, pnwmom Jun 2023 #53

This is the problem with Americans, willing to compromise on the issue instead of getting it Bev54 Jun 2023 #50

Or maybe the problem is that some editors write titles merely to get attention. pnwmom Jun 2023 #57

Well they should support getting it out of the criminal justice system altogether. Bev54 Jun 2023 #65

I've wanted to give you kudos on every post in this thread. Thanks for trying!!! erronis Jun 2023 #71

Well, I try. Thank you for noticing. And this is such an important topic. pnwmom Jun 2023 #83

Uh, Amy? There already are restrictions in the stnadard of care Warpy Jun 2023 #52

Amy knows that. She's merely repeating Roe v Wade in response to Dana Bash's question. pnwmom Jun 2023 #54

She's got a pretty good shot at a future nomination as our party's candidate so this may be part CTyankee Jun 2023 #55

possible nominaton maliaSmith Jun 2023 #99

Interesting take. My son agrees with you about Michelle Obama and he is a prosecutor in Brooklyn. CTyankee Jun 2023 #100

I could almost think CNN deliberately wrote this story to stir up disagreements among Democrats. pnwmom Jun 2023 #56

She echoing Repuke talking points. paleotn Jun 2023 #61

No, she wasn't. The Republican talking point is that Roe v Wade allowed abortion on demand all 9 mos pnwmom Jun 2023 #62

She's following Roe v. Wade Kaleva Jun 2023 #84

I disagree. I oppose forced birth at any stage of a pregnancy. SunSeeker Jun 2023 #59

What the fuck is wrong with her? Novara Jun 2023 #69

WTF is wrong with you? Don't jump to your conclusions based on the OP/CNN. erronis Jun 2023 #72

What is wrong with some Democrats? All she's doing is restating Roe v Wade. pnwmom Jun 2023 #73

Post removed Post removed Jun 2023 #76

She just reiterating the law when Roe V Wade stood. Elessar Zappa Jun 2023 #82

IOW, as I see it, slightlv Jun 2023 #85

Never freak out about these sorts of headlines. Everybody should know this by now. betsuni Jun 2023 #86

I disagree with her. roamer65 Jun 2023 #88

What about in situations that almost never happen? Polybius Jun 2023 #89

Should be a decision between the woman and her doctor. roamer65 Jun 2023 #92

That's a position held by maybe 5 percent of the country Showbizkid Jul 2023 #108

Just give it 20 years. roamer65 Jul 2023 #109

Do you have a citation to support that 5% claim? ShazzieB Jul 2023 #110

Same. WhiskeyGrinder Jun 2023 #95

Compromising with Right to Lifers only changes our goal posts. This is a medical issue ... marble falls Jun 2023 #93

Goddammit Amy. WhiskeyGrinder Jun 2023 #94

This is pretty standard. Even Roe/Casey restricted abortions in the 3rd trimester Marius25 Jun 2023 #96

Oh FFS ExWhoDoesntCare Jun 2023 #97

OPEN BORDERS!!! Its important to make these pubilc stances LiberalLovinLug Jun 2023 #101

Klobuchar is basically saying bring back Roe v. Wade. riversedge Jun 2023 #103

While I get that she is just restating Roe v. Wade LostOne4Ever Jun 2023 #104
