WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) today discussed the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to return the question of abortion to the states and the people and their elected representatives. Thune applauded the pro-life movement for its decades-long commitment to defending the unborn and criticized Democrats for using scare tactics and misinformation to create a false narrative that pro-life laws will prevent women from getting essential medical care for miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies.
But Thune (and most who vote for him and patronize this site) is not pro-life. He is most certainly anti-abortion but that does not equate with pro life. A little more honesty and transparency would be good. But in the echo chamber of the GOP, I know my humble suggestion will not be well received. Doesn’t make it wrong, of course, but that doesn’t really matter.
