Fistful Savalas speaks truth.
>Their stance is cowardly because they refuse to touch it. Whether an unborn baby is a human deserving protection or not is hardly an issue for the states. To test this hypothesis, ask a big L if they think whether or not blacks are human and deserving of legal protection is a states rights issue. They use a legitimate concept in an illegitimate way, to duck out of having to take a stand.<
My understanding is that they refuse to take a stance because you can argue either way, and someone is getting trampled. And, as was said above: there is NO middle ground in this one.
Or rather, there is. There's one side that's rabidly in support of outlawing every form of abortion for whatever reason. There's another side that thinks any woman should be able to abort at any time, just because she gets a wild hair. And hen there's the actual majority, which slaps their hands to their foreheads and proclaims "Not THIS again", and switches the channel.
The big "Ls" are trying to appeal to that third group.
