You “tHeyLL nEVeR BaN coNTrAcEptioN” men are EXACTLY why we are where we are why Democrats are too scared to actually fight and do something.

Because when we TELL you what’s coming - you call us out as hysterical, overreacting, and emotional.

And the Democrats are catering TO YOU because they’re afraid too lose your vote by “going too far”.

JUST SHUT UP AND FOLLOW OUR LEAD AND FUCKING LISTEN TO US.

We’ve been telling you. And we’re telling you again where this is heading AND YOURE STILL TELLING US “no wai”.

I know this is your schtick, but the House, led by evil lib Nancy Pelosi, passed an abortions right bill in September 2021. 

I guess they should go pass another super serious one for the Senate to filibuster and kill so you feel like they did something they've already done.  Go redirect your anger at those pussies Manchin, Sinema and Susan Collins.

Haven’t read it yet, but how does a law that bans abortion at the moment of fertilization mean that contraception will be prohibited? Or are you just assuming there will be additional laws for that? As much as I hate all of this, I still don’t think anyone will directly outlaw contraception (at least not intentionally).

The Supreme Court is dominated by conservative Catholics. You think contraception isn’t on the chopping block? Hell, Rush Limbaugh labeled any woman who uses contraception as “a slut.”

For those celebrating on this site, all women in the United States are now less free than they were this morning.  Let that fucking sink in.  That is fucking insane.  Not that those that cheer this on this site give a rats ass since they generally hate women.

It's always weird when you do this naive optimistic pollyanna bit

For nearly 50 years, the GOP ran on the idea of overturning Roe v Wade.  It was a great talking point to get single-issue voters to vote/contribute, and Democrats weren't really able to capitalize on it simply because it was a hypothetical.

Now it's no longer a hypothetical, and some of the nutters are pushing bans on contraception, gay marriage, etc.  Republican politicians will have to run with it on their record,, and all Republicans will have to defend the nutters pushing contraception bans, etc. as well.

This all sucks, but if this doesn't get more Democrats, independents, moderates, women, parents, etc. off their asses and to the polls, nothing will.  The campaign ads are writing themselves.

That act is almost certainly illegal and ultra vires (beyond his authority) -- only the Legislature has the authority to create official state holidays, which in practice, is exactly what he has done here.  Of course, you can't enforce that after the fact, so he'll get away with this one.

So are you just ignoring Thomas specifically stating in writing that he thought the case that allows that, the case against same sex relationships, and the case against same sex marriage be the next things revisited?

We don't have to imagine a single thing, or create anything "in our head."  They have already told us what they intend to do.  It's exactly what they have done before (Griswold voided an actual law that actually existed that actually banned contraception).  Lawrence overturned an actual law that actually criminalized gay sex.  Obergefell overtuned an actual law that actually prohibited same-sex marriage.  They are coming for all of these things -- they have TOLD US THEY ARE.

Thank you.  Abortion is a great way to get Republicans out to vote, but there is a very fine line between motivating the GOP to get out to vote, and motivating the Democrats to get out and vote and potentially get moderates in the GOP as well as independents to vote for the the Dems.

Republicans got a victory, but they could very well lose when all is said and done.  And there's enough dumbass Republicans who will try to do things like ban contraception, keep up the victory laps, etc. who could very well tip several states to the Dems.

Oppression by those drunk on power - which is 100% what we are watching unfold - only goes in one direction -- MORE.  There is not a single gram of "we've accomplished what we need to, now let's chill" in the GQP.  These issues are not about life.  They are about power, and pure control by the dominant class grinding everyone it sees as lesser under its heel to remind them of where they belong.

Stop viewing any of the actions of the GQP, the Senate, or the SCOTUS through the lens of the rule of law and institutions.  Those concepts have no place here.  View their actions only through the lens that is actually in place: what would a theocratic oligarchy of the minority impose on all who dare oppose them?  You will then predict the actions of those entities with near 100% accuracy.  When you understand that an autocratic oligarchy, much like what we see in Russia, is their goal, it all fits.  The people need to know that their mere existence is at the whim of their masters, they are brought to heel, and are fully controlled.

What states like Texas are actually going to do, and the lower hanging fruit for the Paxtons of the world, is make it a felony for a Texas resident to travel to NY or IL to have an abortion.  Commerce clause be damned.  They will also probably have warrants out for doctors in states where abortion is legal.  It's all on the table.

[atomheartbevo 89395]

If abortion was as important to Americans as Republicans make it out to be, Republican Presidents and a Republican-led Congress would have acted on it years, even decades ago, when they had the opportunity.  Instead, it was a fund-raising gimmick. Now it's no longer a hypothetical or gimmick, and they have to defend it and run on that record.

"We have what's best.  We left."

"I wish it wasn't that way."

 

In spirit, at least, my children are refugees of a shithole country.  I wish it were not the case, but it is.

She followed with this:

"We're privileged.  So privileged to have that option.  But this was never about people like us.  If I needed an abortion, we have the resources to send me somewhere where it's legal.  It's about women and families who don't have that privilege and luxury.  It's about crushing the lower classes and keeping them in cyclical poverty."

 

I hate the leadership of this country.  I hate the people who celebrate oppression and cruelty.  I have given in to hate, fully and completely - there is no other rational response.  They want the worst.  They want blood, they want pain.  They literally rejoice in the pain and sadness of others (plenty of "cry more, libs!" going around).  I pray that there actually is a God who will  grant them what they wish for.....and that it be visited upon them.

Time will tell but don’t be surprised if in the long run it serves as a “dog finally caught the car and he didn’t know what to do with it” moment. Not at all predicting that, but at the same time, if it turns out that way, I will say “well wouldn’t you know who won the fucking pony?”

For those of you who doubt whether they'll continue, Supreme Court justices do not write opinions saying they should overturn more decisions for fun. That opinion is a clear invitation for cases that challenge those opinions. It is a message to Republican state legislatures to pass new laws and to Republican officials to enforce laws still on the books that have gone unenforced because of those decisions. It's effectively marching orders to the conservative legal movement. And the more cases are brought, the more the squishier justices will come around to saying "hell yeah, let's do those too!" Because this is how it works:

Bingo.  How many of you would like to bet against me on the following things happening within the next two Texas legislative sessions:

1 -- passing a law banning at least some contraceptives.

2 -- banning gay sex (that is, just reinstating something like the law that was already on the books in Lawrence)

3 -- passing a law banning same-sex marriage (it may go so far as to revoke recognition of such marriages already performed/performed elsewhere).

All statutes will be challenged, citing Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell, with the goal that they make it to a SCOTUS that, having already found that the right to privacy isn't a thing (and that being the basis for each of those precedents . . . ), will finish the job.

What I also think should happen is that those of us in New York and California should start withholding federal tax dollars from the federal government unless they can prove that those dollars will not go to benefit states that have outlawed abortion.  We pay more than we get so that states like Mississippi and Alabama can continue to be ignorant backwaters.  No fucking more.
