Seriously, though, medical waste. Each woman has about 300,000 ova and ovaries are removed for all kinds of reasons. Millions is low-balling it.

You're going to want to get a woman's permission before you use their extracted ova for your art project!

It's not the amount of effort, its the inconsistency with which it's applied. Pro-lifers put a lot of effort into preventing one specific type of abortion, which pales in numerical comparison to spontaneous abortions. It's pretty clear they care more about the lesser of the two.

If you believe that natural causes are an expression of God's will, and that artificial abortion is violating that, this is a perfectly rational position to take. It's the mainstream position of the largest denomination of Christians in the world.

Anthony Weiner is the dumbest man in history.

He had a cushy job in congress that he could stay in for life, he had a second shot to become mayor of New York, and he was married to a super-model level brilliant woman who is tight with the future President of the USA.

He demolished all of this in order to... not actually sleep with anyone.

Why is it that these moral crusaders only seem to care about life before birth? I mean, she flat out says that preventing abortions is more important than anything else, even if Trump being in charge leads to millions of deaths of currently existing humans.

You'd think that if they were so offended by the idea of abortion, they'd help supply education and contraception or even endorse adoption programs, but nope! They expect to do absolutely nothing but wag their fingers at anyone pregnant who doesn't want to be.

human beings are programmed to really love babies. like, a whole lot. sometimes this programming goes a little nuts and you end up with anti-abortion fanatics - to them it feels like abortion is equivalent to stabbing a little baby with a knife

In terms of actual secure border policy (if you like such things), virtual wall + personnel is what the actual border hawks recommend, so this is a move towards more sensible policy. But since his only actual position has been "Build the Wall, you better believe we're going to build the wall" It's going to piss off a lot of racists.

Probably because her boss did the same thing when her husband had a big extramarital scandal. Bill had one very public instance of being unfaithful, but Hillary stuck with him. Anthony hosed up once, Huma gave him a second chance, and he blew it.

There's also rumors that they had separated prior, only now making it official by means of making it public, but grain of salt on that.

We can't really speculate on their personal lives. Could be any number of totally legitimate personal reasons.

If we wanna be cynical, maybe she stayed with him because his indiscretions make people more sympathetic towards her, in the same way that Monica Lewinsky generally makes people more sympathetic towards Hillary.

If there was some guy that was going around town killing six-month-olds, and the law allowed him to continue doing this, I would have no problem murdering that man and then doing my time. The fact that abortion clinics are rarely bombed and abortion doctors rarely get murdered when there are 100+ million pro-life supporters strongly suggests that they don't actually equate abortion with baby murder.

Yeah, but doesn't it go the other way too with people seeing it as someone being naive? Or I guess that makes her more human or something?
