Carlin was good at pointing out the hypocrisy ^^^^^, but he should have referred to them as Pro-birth, not Pro-life.

If Carlin could have foreseen that Trump would get elected President, he also may have ceased to refer to the subset of that group who voted for Trump as conservatives, as those who may have previously had some conservative bona fides flushed those bona fides down the toilet when they decided to vote for Trump.

The infighting/internal war exists in the democratic party. The right is much different than you like to imagine.

Agreed.

It's some sort of subset of being you're own worst enemy.

But Oklahoma is well overrated as a deeply conservative Red State. This is because it has the most liberal medical marijuana program in the country. The most Trump loving counties nixed legalizing med marijuana by a large margin. But all the urban and some of the rural college town counties overwhelmed them. Also, the state may go on to vote YES to legalize rec marijuana in November.

IF conservatives in blue states want to move to a Red State, then I certainly wouldn't advise making it Oklahoma, since liberals can use the petitioning process to try to vote on get something liberal passed. In the process, they may overwhelm the will of highly conservative rural voters. However, in Kansas and Texas, citizens aren't allowed to use the petitioning process to get anything changed or nixed, so I would advise conservatives to move to those two states, instead. Furthermore, citizens in both states won't ever be allowed to use the petitioning process to vote YES to put the right to abortion in the state constitution.

Yep. There's a huge difference between leaning right and leaning Trump.

If abortion is legal, then euthanasia should be legal as well.
Then again, I think government should stay out of our business altogether.
Local control should be primary. Feds should stick to protecting our borders and that’s it.

No. As a liberal I'm certainly not afraid to ask you if you want all abortion banned except possibly when needed to save the life of the mother.

Speaking of "self owning" and "sucking at forward thinking"....

Two thirds of all abortions in this country are performed on minority mothers. And there are about 850K abortions being performed each year at present.

So effectively we should have net annual gain of about 250K for minorities compared to whites just off of these new kids being born.

This is going to be great for the commie libs. When these kids get to voting age the commie libs won't even need to let in illegal aliens anymore there are gonna be so many new home grown democrat voters.

How many abortions are done to babies that resulted from rape or incest, or babies whose development or birth threaten the life of the mother?

The left: My body my choice!

Also the left: Wear your masks and get a vaccine! I don't care if you don't want to! It's not your choice!
