Manchin says reconciliation bill dead on arrival without Hyde Amendo

[BabyBoomer50s]

West Virginia senator Joe Manchin, a pro-life Democrat, says reconciliation is “dead on arrival” in the Senate if it doesn’t include the longstanding pro-life protection. Nice to see a moderate Democrat reigning the progressives in.

Nobody who insists on a Hyde Amendment can fairly be called "moderate." Nor, indeed, anything but "dumbass."

Abortion is healthcare the same way changing the color of Jewish kids' eyes to blue is.

Biden said today that liberal activists filming female Senators they disagree with in bathrooms is “just part of the process.”

Kids don't need their eye color changed. Many women need abortions.

None of my Jewish friends see it that way. They're all pro-choice as best I can recall.
