So staunch opponents of abortion rights claim.
Originally posted by FMFI don't like it but other opinions on the matter do not indicate irrationality.Staunch opponents are merely a subset of rational minded people. I put the link up because there is more going on than just advocating abortion rights. This article is old but gives a little insight to policy of this administration.
I'm sure your opinions on abortion are sincerely felt.
Originally posted by FMFI just wanted to add the little bit about actions, and why i thought so. I don't think there is any harm done there. There is a difference between being an advocate for rights and an advocate for planned parenthood. That would be better suited for another thread sometime.
I have accepted that this is what you believe which makes you repeating yourself to me rather unnecessary.

Originally posted by sh76I think you would agree that at least the morning-after pill would be a homicide under the personhood amendment. And that Romney has never stated an exception for the morning-after pill in his support of his personhood amendment.
A personhood amendment does not necessarily mean that birth control or IVF will be outlawed.
I'll make you a deal: You show me that Romney actively supports the banning of IVF and birth control, and I won't vote for him.
Originally posted by sh76It is interesting how Republicans do not acknowledge or accept responsibility for the actions of the far-right including the religious fundamentalists who now control their party.
While I do think that "war on children" is a bit hysterical, it is probably less hysterical than those claiming the GOP is waging a "war on women."
