[Trippy Trekker]

Senator Rubio faces Rep. Val Demings (D) in the upcoming U.S. Senate race in Florida. He has stated Rep. Demings supports the right to an abortion up to the last day of a full term pregnancy.

I say “Quack! Quack! Not true.” What say you?

Val Demings told a Miami Herald reporter that she believes abortion should be available up to the point of viability. This comes from an NBC news item quoting the Miami Herald a paid subscription paper.

That is a reasonable position to take.

It's interesting how the article goes to such great lengths to dissect a lot of points about what she supposedly said, but fails to dissect the bill she voted for which, as written, literally would allow every post-viability abortion right up to the point of birth.

Such elective abortions dont happen of healthy viable fetuses, so why call it out?

Several states in the US have no such restriction...and no such abortions take place.

It questions the sanity and intelligence of the people requesting it. And it demonstrates a huge disrespect of women. Why would a woman choose to kill the unborn then after suffering 9 months of pain and pregnancy? When an abortion at that point is more dangerous and painful than labor? Where would she find a doctor to do it? You cant force a doc to do so.

And when she could get $10,000-30,000 in a private adoption?

Is it not funny how some anti-abortionists claim that some want abortion legal up until birth, but can never provide a single verifiable case when such an abortion was ever performed? Especially in states where there are few if any restrictions?

Gonna have to toss the BS flag on that one.

Rubio leads Demmings by a narrow margin in a Red State. He better watch what he says, but the following in Florida will not abandon him over lying about Demmings.

Big difference between that and up to the point of birth.

Thank you!
Canada is a prime example.
Why can’t folks trust women to make their own decisions medically? Late term abortions are done in very wanted pregnancies, and it’s usually due to catastrophic health consequences.
I will call out the misogyny, too.
Women should not have to ask the government or strangers to “trust them.”

As much as some would wish it, we are objectively not children. I don’t need a “time out” to “rethink” my choice. It’s really patronizing.

Because some people have some psychological, delusional need to intrude in other people's personal business. I just don't get it. Many people think late term abortions are done electively, which they are not. Such willful ignorance is staggering.

The government, nor anyone else other than a physician, should not be involved.

Some are also ignorant enough to think the unborn are actual children too. Go figure.

I cannot imagine a man tolerating the same treatment. Talk about freedom and small government

Why a man should even have a say in a woman's personal medical decision, especially a total strangers, is beyond me.

Half of them are just acting out of selfishness and magical nonsense, trying to punch their own tickets to heaven.

The other half just enjoy "owning the libs" and would definitely approve of someone getting an abortion, if it benefitted themselves or someone close to them.

But really, without the self absorbed religious squealers, the anti choice movement would not even be blip on the political radar.

Indeed. I rarely, if ever, hear any anti-abortion argument that doesn't involve religion in some way. Or at the very least, some appeal to ignorance or emotion.

Anti-choice arguments often involve religion and almost always involve misogyny.
