It's not moronic; it's a deliberate effort to discourage left-leaning voters from turning out.
Exactly. Commenters always allude to some pie in the sky Left candidate who will sweep in and deliver us a perfect government.
Guess what? Most Americans think Obama was a wild radical. That includes the people who voted for him.
Most Americans couldn't tell you anything he did other than 'Obamacare'. The wild radical thing was entirely a marketing strategy, and a wildly successful one at that.
The Left needs to look at what the MAGoos are doing right.
Remember Mark Twain's old adage; a lie has traveled halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.
I hadn't realized that a cancer patient might want the IVF option. Amazing how many people are expected to suffer so a few folks can feel self righteous
This is the best summary I could come up with:
That’s why cancer patients and oncologists are expressing shock and anxiety about the recent ruling by the Alabama Supreme Court that frozen embryos are considered children under the law.
Worries are mounting that other states could adopt similar rulings that would impede fertility medicine for people, including many cancer patients, who say assisted reproductive technology might be their only way of having a family after treatments.
The Texas resident, who asked to be identified by her first name only for privacy reasons, underwent fertility treatments following a breast cancer diagnosis in 2019 and has one frozen embryo stored in case she decides to pursue IVF.
“It’s the same stories that you’re hearing from lawmakers after Roe v. Wade, saying, ‘Oh, I didn’t think it would impact this or that’ … [but] they’re making decisions for others,” said Robin Watkins, 41, who underwent fertility treatments to have her twin boys.
While the Alabama ruling only applies to embryos, some patients fear that the laws could keep expanding and affect fertility-assisted treatments overall, including procedures such as egg retrieval.
She said she hopes to have children in the future, and because of her BRCA2 gene mutation, which carries a higher risk for breast cancer, she will genetically test her embryos.
