The nearest abortion clinic – in Chicago – was too far away and too expensive for her mother to provide her with the procedure

    I get what you’re saying. What I’m saying is that when someone has already decided that I’m the same as a Republican because I’m a social liberal, then there’s really not much of a point in anything beyond mocking them for being unrealistic and trying to play for the audience.

      Do you deny that many democrats/liberals have over the years acquiesced and even assisted in bad Republican legislation? That’s not a controversial thing to point out. They have.

      And look even you are giving qualifiers now. Calling yourself a socially liberal. Which is something very different from economic liberalism. Which is what generally people are talking about when they talk about liberals. If I had to Hazard a guess. I would say that you are honestly pro-social democracy more than you are a liberal. And in fact on many economic issues would actually be more on the left with the rest of the Socialist then you would most economic right wing liberals. Just something to consider.

      Anyhow I’ve said my piece. And it seems the actual extremist and downvote Squad have showed up. We had a pretty reasonable conversation but getting downvoted I don’t see the point and continuing it anymore have a good day.
