One of the worst parts of the drama around the Roe v. Wade decision is how weak the Democratic response has been. If Daddy hits you and Mommy just wrings her hands and offers you ice cream afterwards, you’ll grow up one day and be really angry at Mommy.

Marianne, you’re a leader - lead! I’m so tired of everyone complaining about what everyone else ISN’T doing! It’s illogical! Martin Luther King didn’t do it in his moment, why not make this another of your moments & LEAD, for Christ’s sake! If YOU know what should be done, DO IT!

You are Mommy, and you won't leave your abusive situation...

Marianne I don't disagree with you. The response has not been effective. But, there's very little they can do with small majorities in both houses. The Senate couldn't even pass codifying Roe into law even if they used the Nuclear Option..

It's not even that, it's more like mommy is holding your hands behind your back as daddy pummels you and then expects you to be grateful she wasn't the one pummeling you

If they codify it they can't raise money off of it. It's their number two money maker right behind anything to do with Trump. Two days after the leak, Democrat leadership is out stumping for anti-abortion reps.

Its no surprise, IMO its just a planned sustained cycle of D and R over and over, with the perfect excuses every time to not do what was promised to the people

Making women feel guilty about sexuality is instrumental to making men feel like they redeem all humanity through wars, greed, nature exploitation. Religion is only about legitimizing such scheme, never possibly being about love and understanding, given the above.

Excellent description of the Dems. They utter a few words for show.

Here's a hint: as soon as you understand that the Democratic response was not "weak", you'll be on your way to understanding the whole system.
