They just need an unsolvable, emotional wedge issue their childish base can get all worked up about...

as cover for their other dreadful policies

and to get people to vote for (otherwise) unqualified candidates who will tow their line.

All they care about is controlling women and a wedge issue.

Ever notice how much they support prenatal care for the poor?

The cartoon is close.... BUT they care about you when you are 18 and suitable to be cannon fodder in the latest trumped up war. But that too is short lived. Because once you serve and become a veteran they forget about you again. UNTIL you decided to retire then they focus on you again. They focus on stealing your benefits and security earned over a lifetime.

To paraphrase George Carlin, they care again once the baby gets to be about 18 and can die fighting for the profits of their donors.

to the wife the other day. This after listening to a Rethug rant about the unborn having no one to speak for them. And once they ARE born, that IS the truth of the matter! Where are the conservatives and the Religio-fascists when these unwanted kids need good home to be adopted into??? Friggin' hypocrits!
