For the level of hype about Abortion Rights
You'd think that Abortion was a bread and butter issue for ALL Americans...Everyday! But consider:
Teenage pregnacy is at an all time record low...as the younger generation is stuck in low wage jobs.
Fertility rates for most native born American women are declining...mainly due to economic factors; like the need to work to "support" husbands or boy friends who can't earn a "living wage."
And in the post-AIDs world, wild one night stands are risky business...thus encouraging abstinance in many people.
And most "abortion decision" are made on economic grounds not moral grounds... Many people just can't afford to have kids. And that problem is getting worse under Republican looting of the economy.
With cuts in Medicaide for the young working poor, (think Walmart workers), the Republican hypocrites have got themselves into the position of saying:
THE RIGHT TO LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION...BUT ENDS AT BIRTH!
Indeed, the hypocrite-in cheifs' brother, Jeb of Florida, was for Terry Shiavo's "right to life" but now wants to cut back on Medicaide for the poor in Florida, which was the very thing "keeping Terry alive!"
Clearly, the right to life implies the ABILITY TO LIVE... And under Republicans the ability of most working families to support themselves AND THEIR KIDS has declined markedly.
Yet somehow the religious right doesn't see this as a problem.
