The logic is going to have to be explained to me why a state in this country would prevent a woman who WANTS TO HAVE A BABY!!!! from having a hospital local to their community..Am I understanding this correctly?

These legislators who are pushing these draconian measures must be called out..How difficult would it be for an investigative journalist to look into their conduct, that of their families be? If a double standard is found, expose them as the hypocrites that they are..

It is always those with the wherewithal to afford a workaround to benefit their families that push this kind of agenda forward..The Idaho (Or state of your choice) State Senator whose daughter or granddaughter turns up with an unwanted or medically challenged pregnancy, anyone really think that they will not ship that kid off to an abortion friendly state and tell that kid”Sorry honey your gong to be a mom”? I don’t think so..That kid will get everything they need to end that pregnancy, while the rest of the citizenry has to live under these conditions..

"The only moral abortion is my [or my kid's] abortion" has been the norm since Roe; there are myriad reports of women protesting outside of clinics, going in the back door for their own, then back out front protesting. There's no shame.

Donald Trump made shame redundant.

He was the opening act for the vulgar burlesque that now dominates the public stage. This has unleashed the frenzied jollification of those who show great pride in their least attractive attributes, while scantily dressed in Speedos and thongs. We are now witness to a daily parade of gleeful fools who glorify the unfortunate, but inevitable, devolution of human dignity.

I find it compelling that even dogs show shame when they've breached appropriate behavior. It's their innate sense of humility, and their earnest desire for our approval, that makes them so easy to love.

And this is why I have more respect for dogs than I have for most humans.

As I understand it, the far right is a minority voting bloc in this country..It seems to me that Democratic, Independent and critical thinking Republican women can turnout to vote these people out of office..perhaps run for office themselves..That achievement makes what these moronic people think immaterial..

I've said from the beginning that women, even those married to rabid MAGAs, will vote for their best interests in the privacy of the voting booth. Please let that be true!

Looking forward I hope you are right, however, those that are creating this backwards seeing legislation are in office..I am compelled to ask..where were those interest serving votes in 2022?
