McConnell speaks on national abortion ban? What about states rights?

    I thought that the big push about overturning Roe vs Wade was to give the right to control this issue to the states.

    Well, now, Mitch McConnell, this treacherous old Crow as Senate Minority Leader, seems to want to take this further. It is now not about state autonomy, but more explicitly about control of women's bodies from coast to coast.

    With all the double dealing from this man over the last few years, he has convinced our 2 DINOs not to chuck the filibuster to get Biden's agenda passed, the man the nation voted for by the way.

    Do you really think that if the GOP gets the majority and they have the opportunity to enslave the entire country to their agenda that they would not take it?

    McConnell will dispense with all the tradition talk of his about the efficacy of  filibuster and drop it like a hot potato to get this "big do" on the GOP wish list.

    He will do it in a heartbeat and remember that you heard it here first...

    But again, Republicans can break the rules, but that is always "different".

      Different? Nope, it's the same thing. The leaders of the Republican party are going to screw up any possibility of gains among reasonable folks.

      I am only going by your comment, I haven't thought about the statement. If the context is as presented, I would gladly offer a few negative adjectives to shore up my credentials as an equal opportunity contrarian.

      Either way, there's nothing different about what he is doing. I even agree with your filibuster thought. Maybe Schumer and McConnel came from the same place and are just playing their parts?

        They care only about winning, at any cost. Reasonableness is not what this is all about.
