re: #229 Slumbering Behemoth

As a matter of fact, I believe the first “ultrasound rape bill” covered here at LGF was written and sponsored by a Democrat (female, no less), and sponsored and voted “Yea” for by many state Dems.

It just goes to show ya, black and white dichotomies don’t work the way we think they should.

Maybe not black and white, but a really dark shade of gray vs. a really light one. The overwhelming majority of Dems across the country oppose such bills. You’ll find a few exceptions in the South and some rural areas. The GOP, OTOH, is overwhelmingly supportive of such measures.

We have one party that’s primarily a religious organ, and one that’s primarily a secular organization. A simple fact.
