Are Repubs Worse Hypocrites Than Dems?
Maybe not. But the Repubs are the ones in power.
And the Repubs are the ones carrying on the loudest about the threat of terrorism in the Middle East while doing everything in their power to foment terrorism in the Middle East. The Repubs are the ones who rant about making the US secure while neglecting to do even the simplest things to make our ports secure. The Repubs are the ones who accuse Bush dissenters of being unpatriotic while the Repubs cut benefits to veterans, send our troops into battle without body armor and force fatigued soldiers to do tour after tour after tour in Iraq. The Repubs are the ones who refuse to honor American war dead with photographs of flag-draped coffins because it’s too much of a reminder that soldiers are dying in Iraq.
And, the Repubs are the ones who piously preach about the evils of abortion, while seeking abortions for themselves when an unplanned pregnancy threatens their own families.
Democratic Underground has a wonderful post this morning by nolies32fouettes called “The Only Moral Abortion Is My Abortion”. It is a collection of short paragraphs from abortion providers around the world who have provided abortions to the protesters who revile abortion clinics.
The unrelenting fight, which anti-abortion protesters have waged, is so successful that Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia are planning laws to ban all abortions. South Dakota enacted a law Monday, which bans all abortions except when a pregnant woman's life is in jeopardy.
The prayers of the pro-lifers are being answered. So where will these God-fearing anti-abortion crusaders go for their abortions?
