Democratically elected representative of the citizenry fulfilling his campaign vows.

Unconstitutionally, of course, yanno; the nutsucker way.. And by its very definition, not democratically elected.

I think they should raise the voting age back up to 21.

so that you have a longer time before you don't vote, and a longer time before you are not drafted. Yes, that is a debilitating problem that needs an immediate fix.
If we repeal Obamacare rather than fix it, that should solve those two problems, at any rate.

Well, it's a fair point. They fight tooth and nail over abortion, all the while saying the government shouldn't be in our personal business, and then rail against child welfare, health care, aid to the poor, and so forth.

So--honestly, it certainly appears that way: You have every right to be born, but after that, you have to prove you can survive on your own.

What am I missing? Isn't that pretty much the position?

Why, as I look out on the sea of signs at today’s the March for Life, do I see nothing about maternity leave, much less paternity leave? Why aren’t expansive parental leave policies front and center on every pro-life website, and on the lips of every pro-life politician?

Why does every speaker fail to mention contraception? Why isn’t sex education front and center on every pro-life website, and on the lips of every pro-life politician?

Why is adoption mentioned only in passing, if it is mentioned at all? As of this writing, MarchForLife.org’s “adoption” page still has “lorem ipsum” placeholder text.

"I do not believe that just because you’re opposed to abortion, that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed. And why would I think that you don’t? Because you don’t want any tax money to go there. That’s not pro-life. That’s pro-birth. We need a much broader conversation on what the morality of pro-life is." -- Sr. Joan Chittister, OSB
