It’s how the left rolls. First, there’s the double-standard: if a conservative states a fact, it’s labeled “True but false.” If a liberal lies, it’s “fake but accurate.” The right is simply held to a different standard.
But the left continues to say one thing and do another. Republicans are fomenting “War on Women.” But yesterday, after Republicans voted overwhelmingly in favor, Democrats shot down a Bill that would criminalize sex-selective abortions, a practice that almost universally targets and kills girls. If the GOP is engaging in War on Women, why did they vote to protect girls? And if the liberals are so concerned about women, why do they support a procedure that overwhelmingly kills baby girls?
Today the Obama Administration, so fond of the word “fairness,” is halting Florida efforts to purge non-citizens from the voter rolls. They also resist Voter ID. One vote per US Citizen seems “fair” to me. Why are Democrats so repulsed by the idea? Chris Cate, spokesman for Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner, said:
“We are firmly committed to doing the right thing and preventing ineligible voters from being able to cast a ballot.”
What’s so unreasonable? Nothing.
The problem is obvious: Democrats don’t want Voter ID because it would end the possibility for a person to submit multiple ballots and they support non-citizens voting as their candidates and propositions benefit from the voting bloc.
What’s “fair” about that?
Liberal Women don’t necessarily want to kill female unborn children but when their choice is between being “punished” with an inconvenient child or snuffing out the life of that child, abortion wins most of the time.
I agree that convenience (or perhaps more appropriately, selfishness) is the root motivation for abortion. But the issue of sex selective abortion is a whole other ballgame. Sex selection suggests the baby is wanted, but only IF it is the desirable sex. As a result, the inconvenience of the pregnancy or child isn’t the issue. Here’s the thing. If it’s OK to decide to kill an unborn baby because of it’s sex, what’s next? If tests show the baby has Downs Syndrome,is that OK to abort? We already know the answer is “Yes.” So then, suppose science finds the legendary “gay gene?” Will liberals support those abortions, too?
