    I never said they were competent. But I don’t think there’s much question that they genuinely support abortion rights. If you believe otherwise, the ruling of a court with a supermajority controlled by the opposing party is very poor evidence. The Democratic appointees all voted to preserve it.

      It’s worse than that, in my opinion. The Dems feign incompetence to keep the game of distraction going. It’s like WWE to keep us all blaming our neighbors while they take away more of our rights a little at a time. They let Rowe v. Wade get overturned on purpose so they have something to harp about in the future.

      Obama suspended habeus corpus which goes back to the frigging Magna Carta: all they need to do is call you a terrorist or a traitor and they can just disappear your ass. Rhetorical side note: how can Julian Assange have committed treason if he wasn’t an American to begin with?

        Maybe in a few specific issues this happens but I think it’s more that dems face a lot of pressure from powerful people and they tend to buckle.

        I don’t see any evidence of that with roe vs wade. They just didn’t think it would be overturned.

        Are you talking about Guantanamo Bay with the Habeus Corpus stuff?

          Yes the fews specific issues that mattered the most which is how we get to present day. Jesus do you still believe in Santa and the Easter bunny?
