Foes of reproductive health care can’t be satisfied

I don’t know why some Republican candidates are being tight-lipped about their desire for a national abortion ban. But it is aggravating shitty people who are doing some aggravating of their own in return.
The president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, an influential player in conservative politics, took issue with DeSantis’ statements in a recent interview in which he declined to back a national abortion ban. SBA President Marjorie Dannenfelser said the anti-abortion movement and Americans across the U.S. deserve a president who will “boldly advocate” for a ban on abortion at 15 weeks of pregnancy.

In the interview, DeSantis noted he signed legislation in Florida to ban abortion at six weeks of pregnancy but suggested that individual states should decide the issue. He said he is “pro-life” but added that he is “running on doing things that I know I can accomplish.”
Team DeWhiteboots issued Reply # 2 to any criticism and called SBAPLA (pronounced “sbahplah” or “liberty-hating creeps”) a bunch of D.C. insiders.
“Governor DeSantis delivers results and acts, especially when it comes to protecting life. He did so in Florida by signing the heartbeat bill and will be a pro-life president,” Press Secretary Bryan Griffin said. “He does not kowtow to DC interest groups. This unjustified attack on him is another example of the DC political games that have seen conservatives falter in Washington while Governor DeSantis has produced unmatched conservative victories in Florida.”
Let’s review the cunning plan:
- Run on a Make America Florida platform. (Kudzu and state-enabled bigotry uber alles.)
- Get coy about the Floridation process when it involves the political equivalent of radioactive waste.
- Blow off crucial voting blocks when they push you to openly support the obnoxious thing you know they want.
- ??????????????????????????????
- Presidency!
Meanwhile, sbahplah expressed displeasure with the oily orange slug (whose dust DeSantis would eat if he wasn’t so far behind) earlier this year.
The group also was critical of Trump for not supporting the 15-week federal ban.
Trump has defended that position, noting he appointed the Supreme Court justices who made it possible for Roe v. Wade to be overturned. Trump also has said that Republicans’ focus on restricting abortion.
As an aside, it’s weird to think of that time Orangegoliant said women who receive induced abortions should be punished. I don’t think it would have cost him many votes if he’s stuck to his original statement.
Meanwhile, former VP Mike Pence’s position is far closer the total ban that anti-abortion perverts want.
Some other Republicans seeking the nomination support the national ban. Former Vice President Mike Pence said he would go further, endorsing a ban at six weeks of pregnancy, or before some women know they are pregnant.
He told The Associated Press that abortion should be banned when a pregnancy isn’t viable — a standard that would force women to carry pregnancies to term even when doctors have determined there is no chance a baby will survive outside the womb.
But will anyone care?
People who post off-topic comments want to tongue polish Ronnie D’s awful white wading boots.
