PotPie Member since: Oct 9, 2022 Threads: 5 Posts: 310 | . it's very hard to fathom considering all of the illness and unwanted pregnancies that these policies caused but - contraception was not fully legal for everyone in the U.S. until 1972 - from Wiki: "In 1965, the Supreme Court ruled in Griswold v. Connecticut that it was unconstitutional for the government to prohibit married couples from using birth control. Also in 1965, 26 states prohibited birth control for unmarried women. Despite opposition, attorney Bill Baird fought for five years until Eisenstadt v. Baird legalized birth control for all Americans on March 22, 1972" incredible https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birth_control_in_the_United_States . the foolish sayings of a rich man pass for words of wisdom by the fools around him |

It’s really a shame Democrat policies allowed all of this. The President is a fink. |

It's a good thing, then, they changed their minds. It's too bad the GOP regressed backwards on this. |

I don't know that the GOP was ever pro-abortion. I do not see how being pro-abortion is a good thing. I was just wondering if you and the other libs here realized these were all Democrat policies, similar to Jim Crow policies of the era. The President is a fink. |

That's the best you can do, "Democrats were racists 150 years ago"? Too bad it's the GOP who are the racists of today. Own it! |

Oh yes, that’s one of his go-tos when he can’t think of anything else to deflect with. Does it all the time. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

It's telling to me that he'd rather be a member of a political party that is racist today, rather than be a member of a party that isn't anymore. |

And how is the GOP racist? You people never say how. OTOH, the Democrat Party openly says skin color is important in hiring and college admissions. Democrats are the ones who openly say minorities are not as capable so need their help. Democrats are still racists. The President is a fink. |
