I was just reading through this article about how Democrats don’t have a spine and cannot act like Democrats because if they did they’d lose, and read this quote:
Democrats and pro-abortion-rights Republicans blocked most of those [anti-abortion] measures, but in the process they alienated a vital group of voters — religious moderates who support, in principle, the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide but who are morally squeamish about terminating pregnancies.
I’m thinking…huh?
How do you support “in principle” Roe V. Wade and yet be “morally squeamish about terminating pregnancies”? How is this possible? Is that like supporting legalized marijuana, in principle, but being morally squeamish about anyone inhaling? Is that like supporting, in principle, the NRA, but being morally squeamish about anyone owning guns? How does this work?
