They know, they just don't care.

1. That fact proves the GOP is NOT "pro-life"

just pro-fetus, and their concern for the fetus stops as soon as it is born. Especially if it is born to a poor, minority family on Medicaid.

[Scuba]

2. I don't belive they care about fetuses either. They care about the votes of people who do.

[Freddie]

5. ^^^this^^^

The *real* Republicans (the 1% crowd) don't give a flying f*ck about the fetuses, gay marriage, or any of their other issues. It's just a way to get the Fundies to vote their single issue. Thanks, Saint Ronnie.

[YOHABLO]

16. Yep

[Martin Eden]

15. Exactly.

Don't ever take "conservative" rhetoric at face value.

Republican politicians do not want the abortion issue to go away. Ever.

[rhett o rick]

18. I agree. They only care that it's a great diversionary issue. nm

[enough]

3. No. It's not that they don't care. They want it that way. It's terrorism.

I mean this literally, not as rhetoric.

[First Speaker]

9. I have always believed this

They regard the killing and maiming of women as the whole point of the "pro-life" movement, as a way of getting women back into their "place". Absolutely everything in their rhetoric and actions reinforces this belief.

[mountain grammy]

11. Of course it is. Terrorism against women with little money or support.

[niyad]

4. sure they care--considering the depth of their demonstrated hatred for women, do you

expect anything else from them. women dying seems to get them hard.

[mindwalker_i]

6. Women voting Republican

is the clearest example of Stockholm syndrome out there.

[Curmudgeoness]

7. Everyone knows that abortion will not disappear

if it is illegal, or inaccessible. It goes underground. And I lived at a time when this happened.

No one is pro-abortion. I wish there was never a reason for a woman to have to make the decision to do it. But wishing will not change facts. This is why I am pro-choice. And I also care about women. And children after they are born. I am not a Republican.

[hue]

8. So true! RW'ers/1%'ers just want to garner those single issue voters to vote for them!

They care nothing about the Fetuses, Babies, Mothers or anyone else. They just want to rally single issue voters.

[Snarkoleptic]

10. This chilling ad does a nice job of getting the message out.

Sadly, many minds are closed by religion.

[Generic Brad]

12. The American Boko Haram

Their stance is unconscionable.

[GoneFishin]

13. They value fetuses as future serfs in their factories, to compete for jobs, and

suppress wages.

[spanone]

14. i sadly remember before abortion was legal. coat hangers.

[Jasana]

17. Underground abortions happened before I was born.

This "pro-life" issue has always puzzled me because I never considered myself a breeding slave for any man, state, nation or god. How any woman can consider herself an animal not deserving of human rights bewilders and scares me.

I just want these creepy people to die off like the dinosaurs they are.

[IronLionZion]

19. The need wedge issues since they can't win on their economic policies

Without abortion as an issue, they would lose lots more elections.
