Understood, and agreed.
Thanks for the comments on Biden. When I said "I don't care about their personal beliefs" that was too strong. Very strongly religious people in politics make me nervous because it is so difficult to keep those views out of political policy. I've known many strongly religious people who were kind and empathetic and understood how fragile people are. But they're silent when it comes to politics.
Yes, Mourdock and his co-horts need to lose and need to never be in office again. If they win on Roe, they'll keep pushing the rest of their agenda. Contraception will be next. And they won't stop there, either.
Yes, these policies have real effects on real people. Funny how most of those pushing them are either the wrong gender, or past child-rearing age, isn't it...
Women need to understand what's at stake and vote accordingly. With luck, they'll save the rest of us.
Cheers,
Scott.
